More about David

  • 6 years' experience
  • Male
  • BACP

I am a person centered (client centered) therapist in the UK with 6 years of practice experience. Prior to that I volunteered with a bereavement charity specialising in providing one to one face to face support to those experiencing issues with bereavement and loss.

I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, OCD, bereavement and loss.

I am what might be described as a more ‘mature’ counsellor, having spent many years working in other fields and gaining much life experience before training as a counsellor. My therapy style is warm and interactive. I will treat everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My core approach is person centered, which believes in offering all clients empathy, and a non-judgemental experience. I will use other approaches as the need may arise such as cognitive-behavioural.

My approach believes that everyone has the capability to make the changes and improvements they wish to make to lead them to a happier way of living, when the correct environment and support is provided for them.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

David was pivotal in guiding me through a really difficult time in my life. His kind and reassuring presence helped me learn to trust my inner voice again. After only a few sessions I had the courage to make significant changes in my life that I had been struggling to approach for a long while. Getting therapy has really been so important and I am so incredibly grateful to David for everything he has done for me. I also had such fun speaking each week! I really enjoyed David's relaxed conversational style and amidst some challenging times it was nice to have a bit of a laugh about it all now and then! Thank you again for everything - I will continue to 'just be' and commit to being as present as I can. - Chloë

David is a brilliant listener and I felt immediately at ease speaking with him. I was in a time of need and David provided much needed support. Thank you for all of your help, I really did make a massive difference.

Reviewed November 2022

I want to thank David for his support during the moments I didn't know where to turn to. His patience while listening to the various challenges itself was therapeutic. His simple advice doesn't complicate things. It is actionable and usable. David's approach is personal, intuitive and very human. Not cold, technical and distant. At the same time, he respected my situation without being judgemental. This gave me the space to express and come to terms with the situation. I highly recommend David if you need help with your situation.
