More about Peter

  • Male
  • BACP

Hi, I'm Peter and my aim is to give you a safe, discreet and confidential space to enable you freely to explore your thought and feelings, in your time, at your pace away from the rigour and breakneck speed of life.

I am a qualified counsellor (MBACP), with experience in working with clients suffering from anxiety, depression, addiction, self-esteem issues, bereavement, panic disorders or just feeling sad.

I have trained in many of the main therapeutic approaches; particularly Humanistic and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), allowing me to provide an approach unique for each person, embracing your needs. I value your uniqueness, individual belief systems or cultural backgrounds.

If you have any questions or would like to book a session with me, then I would like to welcome you to get in touch with me today.

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.
