Hi, my name is Rob. At Self², I work with people who are experiencing challenging times in their lives for many different reasons. In particular, I specialise in working with people who are coping with loss and bereavement, have experienced trauma, or are going through an important transitional stage in their lives, for example a mid-life crisis. These life events can leave you feeling very anxious, depressed and alone in the world. They can also negatively impact your relationships with partners, friends and family, or open old, buried wounds from the past. There is no 'right or wrong' reason for seeking counselling. The most important thing is to reach out.
I am a qualified integrative counsellor working in private practice. I am trained in a number of different approaches so I am able to tailor my sessions to my client's needs. I have experience working with people from all areas of life, including neurodiverse people (Autism/ ADHD), members of the LGBTQ+ community, and students and seniors. Also, as an experienced bereavement counsellor, I have helped many people who have faced loss, including complex grief, traumatic bereavement and suicide.
Working with me, we will work together to form a strong, safe and respectful relationship. On the one hand, I will help you to develop skills to help you in the present, for example by regulating your emotions, accepting difficult thoughts and feelings and becoming unstuck from self-defeating patterns. At the same time, I will help you to explore your inner self at a deeper level, getting to know the parts of you that are struggling, healing old wounds and releasing painful emotions.
Whatever your situation, I offer a space where you can be heard, understood, and supported without judgment. You don’t have to go through this alone. Starting therapy can feel like such a big step, especially when you are feeling afraid or low, so I aim to make the process as straightforward and easy as possible. I offer a free 20-minute chat to discuss your needs and so you can get a sense of what working with me would be like. I work both online (Wednesdays and Thursdays) and on Tuesdays, I work face-to-face from my safe and comfortable room in Canterbury.
