About me and my therapy practice
Hi, my name is Ben - thank you for viewing my profile. I am an integrative counsellor, which means I am trained in different approaches and can use these different ways of working (mainly Humanistic, Psychodynamic and CBT) in our work together to best meet your needs. We are all unique individuals and as such my approach will be tailored to your specific needs. Counselling can be useful for a wide range of issues; it can allow you time and space to focus on yourself. I aim to provide a confidential safe space to allow you the time you need to explore the issues you have faced or are currently facing.
Please send me an email and I can arrange a suitable time for an initial phone call to discuss any questions you might have.

About me and my therapy practice
As well as being a Registered Counsellor, I am also a trainer in the following courses:
Safe TALK (Suicide Alertness)
Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE's) Level 1 and Level 2
Wellness Recovery Action Plan (WRAP)
Practice description
Safe TALK is a 3.5 Hour workshop to help participants identify someone at risk of suicide and give them the confidence using a 4 step model to ask someone if they are feeling suicidal and where to signpost them to.
ACE's Level 1 & 2 is to support you / your organisation or group to become more trauma informed. Both are a 3.5 hour workshop. It is recommended that you complete Level 1 before progressing to Level 2, however these can be compressed and delivered as a one day workshop.
WRAP is a 6 to 8 week course (depending on group numbers) that looks at your overall wellbeing and how to support yourself in an informed way that focuses on the things you can do rather than the things you aren't able to do. It is very recovery orientated in its direction.
