Hi! My name is David and I’m a Therapeutic Counsellor and Life Coach. My practice is located on Dean Street in Newcastle upon Tyne city centre, just a few minutes’ walk from Central Station. I work face-to-face and online with adult clients in a private and confidential setting. Using my skills, training and experience, my aim is to help you find your way to a more fulfilled life.
The type of counselling and coaching I offer is both Person-Centred and pluralistic. We work together, exploring any difficulties or challenges you may have. My job is to actively listen to you, to understand the world from your point of view and to fully accept who you are. In this way a valuable and constructive working relationship can develop. With an effective rapport established, you are encouraged, supported and empowered to find your own way towards your preferred future.
- Counselling has its emphasis on emotional wellbeing and mental health issues. This is appropriate if you are in distress or in need of help with difficult life problems or behaviours. Find out more on this page.
- Life coaching deals with more everyday matters, in a future-oriented way. Helping you to make changes by us working together in a purposeful exploration of options – using your strengths to cultivate growth. Find out more on this page.
- There is a good deal of overlap between these two collaborative ways of working. Where appropriate I offer the possibility of combining the emotional exploration of counselling with the practical approach of coaching.
