Andy | Person-Centred Therapist
Person-Centred Therapy Ormskirk
From personal experience, I know how difficult life can be at times and how challenging it is to cope with our thoughts, feelings and emotions.
You may be struggling with bereavement, grief and loss or struggling with issues around your identity. Anxiety and depression could be holding you back from getting on with life. Coping with unresolved feelings of anger or suicidal thoughts can seem impossible. These are all areas in which I have personal interest as well as extensive experience working with.
Given how complex and overwhelming things can feel, it can be difficult to talk to our family and friends about our problems; it is often easier to speak to someone who is not emotionally involved in our lives. As a person-centred counsellor and psychotherapist, I offer a warm, non-judgemental space where you will be listened to and actively heard.
My therapy practice views you as the unique expert in your own life. Working together, we can help you explore and have a greater understanding of yourself, the experiences, and the issues you have faced. You will be able to express yourself freely in a safe therapeutic environment. Through the empathy and support received, you can gain greater self-acceptance to make meaningful change and discover your true authentic self.
If you would like a space to feel truly heard and understood, send me a message to arrange a free 15 minute consultation to explore how we could work together.

I have a particular interest in the impact on mental health because of ill health. This is a result of my personal experience of living with a chronic health condition. Coming to terms with, accepting and subsequently living with ill-health was a challenge and had a significant impact on my mental wellbeing.
Fortunately, I sought the help and support of a therapist. From personal experience, I fully understand the benefit counselling can bring in helping people get through dark times.Therapy helped me gain self-acceptance and supported me to make positive changes and achieve personal growth in my life.
Alongside my work in private practice, I have worked with several organisations and charities offering mental health support to people in the local area. This includes a charity specifically focused on improving the lives of men and increasing men's access to counselling. As a once reluctant client myself, I am passionate about breaking down the stigma and barriers men may experience around mental health.
