Roger Whitton

I provide Counselling for Individuals and Couples. I am a BACP Registered, Accredited Psychodynamic Counsellor and experienced with diverse client issues: Relationships, Low self-esteem, Depression, Abuse, Dreams, Bereavement & losses and particularly issues arising from childhood. I work with both Individuals and Couples. I am experienced in working with a range of client issues, particularly Relationships, Low self-esteem, Depression, Abuse, Bereavement and losses, dreams and particularly issues arising from childhood. • Individuals come for counselling because they want to overcome barriers to moving forward in their lives. • Couples come for counselling when they want to improve their relationship; how they can transform how they are both with themselves and with their partner and how together they can form a more satisfying relationship. I work on-line using Teams or Zoom.

In 1998 I began my career in Counselling, gaining a Certificate and then a Diploma in Psychodynamic Counselling in 2002; then a Certificate in Time Limited Therapy, and a Certificate in Couple Counselling. I am a BACP Registered, Accredited Counsellor/ Psychotherapist. I have a current DBS check (formerly known as a CRB check) at the Enhanced level to work with Adults and Children; renewed annually.

With Individuals: • Childhood abuse (Physical, Sexual & Emotional) and Bullying, • Anger Management and Low Self-Esteem & Low Self-Confidence And with Couples: • Affairs and Betrayals, Family and Relationship issues, Separation and Divorce.

My theoretical approach is called Psychodynamic Counselling. In the work with you, importance is placed on o Clearly identifying your Goals and Objectives, o The unconscious and exploring past experiences, particularly childhood relationships with parents and other significant people, in shaping current behaviours; as well as o Current experiences, behaviours and emotions. By this means you will discover the barriers to moving forward and thereby achieve what you want. I adhere to the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy's "Ethical Framework for Good Practice in Counselling and Psychotherapy". Individuals: £65 per weekly session of 50 minutes; Couples: £75 per weekly session of 60 minutes; payment by BACS transfer. Daytime and evening appointments available; call me on: 07747867895.
