More about Gareth
- 3 years' experience
- Male
- BACP
I am a practicing counsellor who completed a masters in psychodynamic psychotherapy at the university of Essex, along with some shorter courses which cover other areas of mental health such as children's well-being and autism.
During our work together, I will offer you safe space to discuss how you are feeling and I may ask you questions to better understand you. I hope the space I offer you will enable you to open up, understand yourself more and empower you.
I am currently supporting the Road Victim's Trust as a counselling volunteer, where I work with people who may be experiencing grief, trauma, and a number of other interconnecting issues.
Thank you for reading my profile.

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.
