Many people struggle with issues that they find both painful and difficult to resolve. As a result, they find therapy and counselling a very useful space to talk about what is happening for them, working it through in a way that feels safe and healing.

I’m Hywel, and I offer a safe, friendly, confidential space in which you can feel safe to bring the issues that you want to bring, without risk of judgment. I provide a combination of support and challenge to help you work through the issues that you are struggling with.

Please note that I work exclusively online at present, with adults 18 and over. Working remotely means that I can offer you sessions wherever you live in the UK, and it also means that you do not need to factor in the time or cost of travelling.

What I offer

I am qualified in Gestalt Therapy, having trained at the Gestalt Centre in London, and I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP). I decided to train as a therapist because of the great value I found from being in therapy myself.

I work with issues including: struggles with self-compassion, anxiety and depression, relational difficulties, shame, feelings of difference, healing from trauma, stuckness and difficulties with finding a sense of agency. I am Covid conscious and climate conscious.

I am a firm believer that, over and above the particular type of therapy that is used, it is the therapeutic relationship that the client and the counsellor build up between them, that is crucial to the process and to the ultimate success of therapy.

I offer an initial free 20-minute discovery call for you to ask any questions you may have, and for us to assess whether we would be a good match to work together. If we do decide to go ahead with counselling, I offer sessions online via Zoom video meetings. Each session is 50 minutes long and costs £70. The number of sessions needed is not fixed, and depends on your issues, your goals, and your preferred way of working together.

If you have any questions about working with me, or would like to book a free, 20-minute discovery call, please fill out this form and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can.
