Sessions available online & by phone, Monday to Friday in the mornings. Sessions available from 8am.

If you need to talk I’m here to listen. I’m a friendly and approachable experienced counselling professional. I work online providing UK wide counselling services via Zoom & phone. How can I help you?

At times life can be very challenging. If you need to talk things through with an experienced professional do get in touch. I am by nature a good listener, empathic and non-judgmental. I believe it’s essential that you feel accepted, supported, heard and understood.

Please note I work individually with adult clients.

Counselling professional :

I’m a qualified Person Centred counsellor with over seven years full-time experience & a good track record of success. Registered with the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ, I am committed to working ethically to provide the highest standards of counselling for clients.

My values and character - I’ve always had a strong drive to help and heal people. I hate seeing any living creature in pain. It’s very rewarding to see clients making progress and having successful therapeutic outcomes. Its great to see someone smile again. I’m naturally empathic and genuine. 

Your choice:

You have the choice of having sessions via Zoom or phone. More recently I've noticed the majority of my clients prefer online counselling via Zoom. Often clients like to have phone therapy via WhatsApp as it is secure and saves money compared to usual phone calls. Additionally, I can offer face to face sessions in Bridgwater, Somerset.

Supportive session atmosphere:

The atmosphere of our counselling sessions is friendly and informal. You’ll have a confidential & safe space where you can feel valued, heard, understood & accepted. You choose what you want to discuss. You choose how much you want to share. We work at your pace.

Is this the right therapy for you?

Is Person Centred therapy right for you? - Person Centred therapy can be highly effective for a client who wants to discuss, explore and understand. I believe that we all have great potential and more inner resources than we realise, but it can often be difficult to access this by ourselves. Person Centred therapy can help you gain new insights into your problems and how to solve them. I aim to help clients develop the ability to withstand adversity, effect positive change and bounce back from difficult life events. Clients often say they feel so much better to be able to offload - I wonder if you feel like that?

Uniqueness and shared experience :

We all have our own unique story and experiences. Indeed, Person Centred therapy comes from a humanistic tradition which values each of us as the unique individuals we are. Additionally, I have often found common themes come up in the therapy room that may have affected many of us at one point or another - for example issues around feeling overwhelmed, anxiety, depression, loss, bereavement, loneliness, work, stress, health, self esteem, being stuck, relationships etc. Counselling gives you an opportunity to explore what is causing you distress and help you find resolution. Clients often report feeling better when they recognise:

· A sense of progress

· Feeling heard and understood

· They work well with their therapist

· Gaining new coping skills

· Starting to experience positive changes in their life

· Feeling better able to manage their emotions and behaviour

· Feeling empowered and more in control of their life

Getting started:

We get a chance to meet each other in our first session. It's a great opportunity to see how we feel about taking a therapeutic journey together. Collaboratively we'll look at how we work together - things like appointment times, how frequently you would like sessions, fees and confidentiality. I'd like to hear about what has brought you to counselling, and what you would like from counselling.

I usually suggest trying a session and see how it feels. If it feels right for you we can book in further sessions. There is no obligation to continue if you didn’t think I was the right counsellor for you. 

Sessions available online & by phone, Monday to Friday in the mornings. Sessions from 8am.

If you are need to talk I'm here to listen. I’m a friendly and approachable counsellor working online providing UK wide counselling services via Zoom & phone. How can I help you?

At times life can be very challenging. Most people I speak to who are going through hard times want to be heard and understood. They are looking for empathy not sympathy, acceptance not judgement, support not criticism. I recocognise most people are looking for help in finding their own answers, not being given lots of advice.

I am by nature a good listener, empathic and non-judgmental. I believe it’s essential that you feel accepted, heard and understood.

Sessions last for 50 minutes. I charge £60 per session.

We all have our unique story and unique experiences, yet I have often found recurring themes arise in the therapy room that have affected many of us at one point or another - for example issues around feeling overwhelmed, anxiety, depression, loss, bereavement, loneliness, work, stress, health, self-esteem, being stuck, relationships etc. While these issues can leave us feeling isolated, they’re much more common than you may initially believe. Counselling gives us the opportunity to examine what exactly is causing you distress and help you to find resolution.

I'll support you so that you can develop the right approach for your unique situation. I aim to help you strengthen your resilience and ability to cope, resolve inner conflict, and overcome obstacles. 

The majority of my work is provided on line via Zoom. Phone counselling is also available via WhatsApp. Additionally, If you are local to Bridgwater, Somerset I can offer face to face sessions.

Person Centred approach compared with the medical model of therapy

Person Centred counselling offers a distinct approach to mental health treatment compared to the medical model. While the medical model often focuses on identifying underlying biological or psychological disorders and prescribing medications or therapies to treat them, Person Centred therapy takes a more holistic perspective.

Person Centred counsellors emphasise the importance of individual agency, self-awarenesss, and the inherent potential for human beings to heal and flourish. They believe that individuals have the capacity to understand and address their own challenges with the support of a non-directive therapist. Rather than focusing on diagnosing and treating specific conditions, Person Centred therapists create a safe and supportive environment where clients can explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. This approach can be particularly beneficial for individuals who feel that their mental health concerns are not adequately addressed by the medical model, or who seek a more personalized and empowering approach to therapy.

Client Recommendations - the following are genuine recommendations from clients made on Google for my Counselling Practice - Green Lodge Counselling

N  The sessions I had with Alex at Green Lodge were invaluable to helping me through a period of severe depression. Very professional and encourages a constructive mindset in a relaxed trusting environment. Thank you for your help Alex really appreciated.

C I have been having therapy for over a year with Alex and was reluctant to do so as most men are!

My symptoms and triggering are all but gone thanks to Alex and his guidance and tools enabling me to become aware of my actions and feelings.

I would recommend Alex to anyone. His style of relaxed self-healing therapy and insightful skill and deep knowledge suited me perfectly. Thanks Alex.

D My counselling sessions with Alex, have undoubtedly given me much more confidence and clarity, in facing my daily challenges. My friends have noticed, how much less anxious, I have become, these days. I truly appreciate his patience and expertise, in starting a healing process for me. I found it a very calming environment and very worthwhile.

H This place has a great air of calm. Alex is a tremendous counsellor. I feel safe and confident to speak and say what I want at my own pace, there is no pressure. I feel my life is quietly and gently improving with each session I attend.

There maybe times in life where we face issues we can't resolve on our own. Clients often tell me how refreshing it is - & how much better they feel - being able to talk in confidence to a private counsellor. Having separation from friends and family can take the pressure off of the situation. Therapy is a place where we can discuss, explore and understand. This can help you make sense of your experiences, and how you feel about them. Rather than give you advice, I'll support you in developing your own unique  strategies and solutions to your unique situation. Therapy often feels like a journey. I take that journey with my clients with empathy, understanding and acceptance.
