About the Therapist

About the therapist:

Hi there, I'm Peter. Thanks a lot for taking a look at my profile. I am a practicing Psychotherapist and professional member of the National Council of Integrative Psychotherapists, the Health and Care Professions Council, and the College of Sexual and Relationship Therapists. I have diverse experience of working in NHS, educational and charity sector clinical services, and particular expertise in working with Mental Health, Sex and Relationships, Substance Use, LGBTQI+ issues, and their intersections.

As an Integrative Therapist, I utilise a combination of therapeutic theories and clinical approaches to best suit the needs and preferences of the client. I believe this tailoring is most effective in establishing trust and therapeutic rapport between the client and I, providing a 'toolkit' for treatment that is efficient and of value to the client.

I believe that psychotherapy is a collaborative process, and that long-lasting, meaningful change and insight can derive from it. Please let me know if you have any questions about my practice, and if you would like a free 15-minute consultation to discuss your support needs and what would feel right for you in therapy.
