More about William

  • 6 years' experience
  • Male
  • BACP

Hello, my name is William Signey, BA Hons. MBACP, I am a level 6 counsellor/psychotherapist with over 6 years of experience and over 2000 hours work with clients. I work in an integrative way offering a safe, confidential environment for my clients, enabling them to understand their feelings and emotions in this ever-changing and demanding world. I have worked with problems such as PTSD, Depression, Abuse, Sexual and Physical, Historical/Childhood issues, Neglect, Anxiety, Panic attacks, Suicidal ideation, Phobias, avoidance, etc.

I have experience working with adults and children from the age of 10 years old within clinical settings and schools on a private basis. I have also worked with a mental health charity in a voluntary capacity.

Clients tell me that I have a way of deep empathy and understanding of their situations, feelings, and emotions, in many cases for the first time in their lives.

We can work together, to build trust, empathy, confidence, and autonomy, helping not just initially but ongoing and into the future.

I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

About online counseling

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

I'm so glad I changed to William because he understands me so much and works at my pace to help me overcome my emotions and stress etc without diving it deep first off because that would lead to unnecessary stress on my behalf. Would highly recommend him.

I have never had a male councillor before, usually would run a mile if referred to one (my issue historically) However, William is very caring and I do feel safe with him. Thank you

Brilliant therapist! I have improved so much since therapy started, I just wish I started sooner with him :)

Reviewed April 2023

I am a therapist myself and I am getting so much benefit and insight from our sessions. William is deeply empathic, asks such thought-provoking questions and makes me feel very safe. I came to therapy feeling hopeless and stuck. After just a few sessions I have hope that I can feel better. Williams wisdom and expertise is creating a shift within myself. For 3 years I have been suffering with terrible PTSD symptoms but we are safely exploring the trauma together, in a measured and gentle way.
