SR Therapies

About

Hi, I'm Steven.

Therapy at its best is a collaboration. I bring the training, the framework and the space — you bring what matters to you.

It takes real strength to look for support, and my aim is to make the process of starting therapy feel as grounded and non-intimidating as possible.

My approach — collaborative and client-focused

As an integrative therapist, I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all solution. Instead, I carefully select methods from different approaches — including Person-Centred theory for empathy, Psychodynamic thinking for insight, and practical CBT tools — to create a therapeutic relationship that is tailored specifically to you.

The key to my work is collaboration. I offer a strictly confidential, non-judgemental, and safe space where you are in control of the pace and direction. Together, we will explore the challenges that brought you here — whether it's stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, or relationship difficulties. We will work to:

  • 01Gain deeper insight: understand the roots of your current feelings and behaviours.
  • 02Build confidence: develop practical coping strategies to manage symptoms and thrive.
  • 03Find clarity: move past feeling stuck and discover your own path forward.

    • Session practicalities

    I offer both short-term, solution-focused counselling for immediate concerns and open-ended therapy for deeper personal growth. Sessions are 50 minutes long, and I welcome clients for appointments online via a secure link.

    The first session is simply a chance for us to meet, for me to explain the process clearly, and for you to decide — with no obligation — if I am the right therapist for you.

    A safe space, wherever you are

    My practice is built on the strong belief that your therapeutic journey deserves a setting that is completely safe, confidential, and comfortable — no matter where you are.

    The virtual environment

    I've designed my virtual practice to be a dedicated, low-pressure space for your reflection and growth. When we meet online via secure video link, I ensure that my professional setup provides the same level of focus, privacy, and ease as a traditional office. You can log in from your chosen location — a quiet room at home, your private office, or wherever you feel most secure — and dedicate that time entirely to yourself.

    What you can expect from me

    Working together means you get reliable, consistent support. Sessions are typically held weekly, usually at the same time, and run for 50 minutes. This regular structure creates the consistency needed for deep, meaningful insight — without the stress of travel or commuting.

    In our sessions, you can always expect:

  • Zero judgment: this is a space where every thought, feeling, and experience is valid and welcome.
  • Total focus: our time is dedicated entirely to your agenda — what feels most urgent, painful, or confusing to you right now.
  • Professional standards: I adhere fully to the BACP Ethical Framework, ensuring our work is conducted with the highest commitment to your safety and well-being.

    • Taking the first step

    Reaching out is often the hardest and bravest part. That's why I offer a free, brief initial phone chat. This isn't a formal session; it's simply a relaxed, non-committal conversation where you can ask any questions, explain briefly what's going on, and — most importantly — get a sense of my style and whether I feel like the right fit for you.

    My practice is here to support you in moving from feeling stuck to finding genuine clarity and confidence, all from the comfort of your own space.
