About Me

Welcome. I'm Greg.

 I work at counselling in twickenham. if you're thinking of taking that first step into counselling, then you may want to know more about me as a counsellor.

Long before training as a therapist, I lived and travelled across the globe. I worked as a professional, lecturer and anthropologist observing other cultures.

Currently, I am a counsellor at counselling twickenham and whitton. I have gained a wealth of personal experience and like most people I had my own challenges. learning how to deal with my problems was rewarding and painful. above all, I believe that my own struggles have given me a deeper understanding of people. and how they cope in a crisis.

If I learned anything, then it is how vulnerable and resilient we are. the more I meet people, the more I realise how that strength helps us to survive.

Along the way, I've been deeply affected by my encounters with people. i feel privileged to share their triumph and despair. so I am fascinated by what makes us human. and, I believe that each of us has an extraordinary tale to tell.

As a result, I have a broader perspective on life. I believe that is why clients find me empathetic and easy to talk to. so I can offer you a safe space to talk through your issues and be listened to.

Most of all, I see my work as a calling. I am committed to working in an atmosphere of trust and confidentiality.

My Experience

Firstly, before becoming a counsellor, I worked in inner-city schools, universities and communities around the world. my experiences have enriched me and opened my eyes. I have lived and worked in europe, brazil, africa, india and papua new guinea. for a while, I worked with botanists in kew gardens. later, I trained counsellors at saint mary's university and worked in the nhs and mind. most notably, I was the first male counsellor at portsmouth rape crisis service.

 I have fifteen years of experience. I enjoy working with people from different backgrounds, ages, genders, ethnicities and religions. it took me five years to train as a counsellor before I qualified with a master's degree. after qualifying, I began working at twickenham counselling, enduringmind. also counselling locally in hounslow, isleworth and teddington.

Above all, I believe  can help you move forward with freedom and independence. this is why I offer counselling:

• which values the unique experiences of each human being
• respects the freedom of individuals to make their own decisions
• working together in a partnership

 I run my private counselling sessions at enduringmind, whitton, twickenham. finally, I'm a member of the united kingdom council of psychotherapist and follow its code of ethics. my private practice offers counselling in twickenham, whitton, hampton, isleworth, hounslow and teddington areas.
