"Neil is extremely personable, with a soothing and understanding persona that makes sharing uncomfortable truths really easy. Coaching and counselling sessions with Neil exceeded my expectations! He helped me overcome crippling anxiety." (Tracy)
A Unique Coach and Counsellor
Here are the top 5 reasons why I'm unique:
- I work both In person (Stroud and Bristol) or Online I work flexibly and I can come to you, meet you at my place, or go outside! My sessions are 1 hour (not the normal 50 minute counselling hour) but sometimes I can offer a few more minutes if we need it, for free.
- I am a trauma informed therapist, specializing in anxious adults who want to be happier and healthier.
- I combine Counselling and Coaching to move your forward, because this is the type of therapist I think works best. I even do group workshops and Rejection Therapy. I also work with Relationships. I even offer Mindful Massage to help your work out physical tension.
- I give every client notes and a check-in after the session to make sure you get the most from it.
- I have a policy of being TOTALLY AFFORDABLE to all. I want to make sure you can access help when you need it.
First Session Is Only £29
- After this pay according to what you can afford: £95 / £75 / £65 / £50 (Wealth: High / Medium / Low / V Low - This is an honesty system, led by you, no questions asked)
- IN PERSON: In Stroud we can meet at my house (Stroud). I can come to you for a pre-agreed travel cost.
- Please let me know if you need financial assistance - I offer limited lower rates for those in need.
What happens in a session?
- Welcoming and agreements - making sure you feel safe and warmly welcomed (all parts of you)
- A grounding practice - to help regulate your nervous system
- Listening and reflecting - to understand your situation and feelings
- Coaching and counselling - a variety of modalities, such as:
- Counselling: Person Centred Counselling (Carl Rodgers): Fundamentally my intention is to help you trust yourself through listening and responding with empathy, genuineness and unconditional acceptance.
- Coaching: GROW Coaching (Sir John Whitmore): Looking at Goals, Reality, Options and Will.
- Working with 'thoughts': CBT, DBT and 'The Work' (Byron Katie) to explore and open up unhelpful thoughts with four meditative questions and finding new perspectives.
- Working with 'trauma' and 'emotions' through Compassionate Enquiry ( Dr. Gabor Maté) to bring kindness and love into the process and acknowledging the positives of our psychological defences and coping mechanisms.
- Embodied work using Somatic Experiencing - to help relax the nervous system and access underlying Trauma by tracking the bodily sensations where trauma and muscle memory link together.
- Working with 'parts' through Internal Family Systems and Voice Dialogue and the Drama Triangle to create a playful way of exploring tricky patterns and self-criticism, rescuing and victimisation via internal parts and patterns of thought and feeling.
- Working with NLP and Clean Language - using metaphor and language to help people access hidden beliefs and release them.
- I find it helpful for clients to wrap up each session with agreed actions, celebrations and sending you useful notes. This is such a rare thing and so many clients LOVE IT. If you'd this just let me know.

After 25 odd years of therapies, and self-help techniques, it can take a *lot* to impress me. I'm deeply impressed with the approach and coaching abilities of Neil! (Julie C)
