Justin Stone

I currently have a range of hours available throughout the week and at various times throughout the day.  Please get in touch for further details.

I am a qualified psychotherapeutic counsellor (MBACP). My practice is grounded in compassion and collaboration, offering a safe and supportive space for individuals to explore challenges including anxiety, trauma, grief, intrusive thoughts, phobias, relationship difficulties, and loneliness. 

At the heart of my work is the belief that change is always possible. Counselling provides a confidential and supportive environment where you can explore your experiences, develop healthier coping strategies, and begin to create a life that feels more manageable and meaningful.

For those interested in the therapeutic “jargon,” I work in an integrative way, drawing on Person-Centred Therapy, Gestalt, and Transactional Analysis. In practice, this means combining approaches to best suit your needs: creating a compassionate, non-judgemental space (Person-Centred), exploring how your thoughts, feelings, and body responses connect in the here and now (Gestalt), and looking at patterns of relating and communication (Transactional Analysis). Together, these approaches provide flexibility and depth, allowing us to find the way of working that feels right for you.

I am also trained in the Rewind Technique, particularly effective for trauma and phobia work. With over 25 years’ experience in education at a senior level, I bring a deep understanding of workplace pressures and life transitions, helping clients find clarity, resilience, and personal growth.

I offer compassionate, confidential counselling tailored to your needs. Working integratively (using a range of counselling approaches as appropriate), I provide a safe space to explore challenges such as anxiety, grief, trauma and relationships, helping you move toward clarity, resilience and growth.

Counselling sessions are in person, in the centre of Royal Leamington Spa or online for clients across the UK. Whether face-to-face or virtual, you’ll find a warm, professional space where your story is heard and respected.

Whether you are new to counselling or returning to therapeutic work, you are welcome here as you are.

Please note, for face-to-face clients, there are three steps leading up to the front door to be aware of.

I offer an extended first session to allow time to discuss a few introductory questions.  

This session usually lasts for around an hour and twenty minutes, but only the first hour is charged.
