A calm and safe place to be you

I’m Guy, an integrative counsellor and BACP member. Whatever has brought you here, the session is yours: a space to be heard without judgement or advice.

About me

A journey we share

There are lots of counsellors and it can be hard to choose, so a bit about me.

I see counselling as a really collaborative experience, a journey we share, not one where I hold the power over you as the client.

I have worked for over ten years as a Samaritan, running the branch in Canterbury for three of those and training other Samaritans. Much of my professional work has been with both young people aged 16 to 18 and adults.

Working as a counsellor and Samaritan has placed me in situations with clients on the brink, in desperate and hopeless situations but also callers who need a friendly and empathetic voice with whom to share worries. Over the years I have come to recognise how powerful it can be for people to share something they have never shared before, to find a way through, to see hope, to feel heard.

I felt heard for the first time in a very long time. He makes me feel really comfortable and I feel I can say anything to him.

Taking the first step

Getting in touch doesn’t commit you to anything. The first session is about getting to know each other and seeing if I’m the right counsellor for you.
