Brad Stone

Client ages range from 18 to don't ask. 

Genders of all kinds - zero judgement. We're all people.

Work Monday to Friday, at agreed times to suit each individual client. Have particularly good flexibility as can move my writing work to suit. Able to accommodate the changing needs of shift workers and others who can't work to a weekly fixed slot.

Why not get in touch, book a free preliminary chat at a time to suit you and we can take it from there.

Integrative talking therapy, in a comfortable home-based therapy room. You are enabled to share what ever is bothering you and how it makes you feel - while I listen, observe and take notes. Through this process, a picture is built up of what events and feelings link to what, who and why. It is normal for forgotten or buried memories to become unlocked - giving clients light-bulb moments of revelation and realisation. Uncovering information allows us to explore the true causes of the issues and responses to them - enabling current issues to be resolved from the bottom up. The result is a more solid, positive foundation upon which to go forward for the rest of your life, freed from the things previously holding you back.

From the very beginning, it is kind, caring, supportive process. Never any criticism, only unconditional, positive regard and progress at a pace to suit - enabled to breathe, relax and be yourself.

There can be tasks to do between sessions but this is not school. Entirely your choice as to whether to do them - through you will progress faster when you do.

Experienced in successfully helping with abuse, addictions, ADHD, anger, anxiety, bereavement, betrayal, career, co-dependency, confidence, depression, domestic abuse, loneliness, low self-esteem, people pleasing, procrastination, relationships, self-harm, stress, trauma and unplanned pregnancies.

Last Session
When you feel ready to part ways, the door is never closed. You are always welcome to come back for a 'top up' session. One example is client who came back when expecting their first child. One session was all it took.

I work in private practice, dedicated to giving the very best service. Enjoy helping people. Clients are never just numbers on a spreadsheet.

All session notes are hand-written and securely stored in a locked filing cabinet, with personal details stored on paper in another secure location in my home. The two never meet so, not only can client details never be hacked, even if a burglar stole session notes and was able to read my handwriting they could not be linked to a client. Given how prolific hacking is these days, I feel it is the best way to safeguard client confidentiality - something that is crucial in this profession.

Based in MK9 and MK10, face to face sessions are mostly conducted from my home-based therapy room in Broughton, MK10 - with free parking and the number 3 bus service nearby.

Session Charges (10% discount for students and NHS)
£50 for 50 minutes, for individuals - face to face and online.
£70 for 60 minutes, for couples - face to face.
Free 20-minute preliminary telephone chats.

Am enhanced DBS checked/cleared and based in MK9 and MK10 - within easy reach of J13 and J14 on the M1, for nearby Northampton and Bedford.

The first session starts as we mean to go on, with you invited to share what is troubling you and us working through it - without judgement, in total confidence. 

We don't lose time going through paperwork.

Am easy to talk to. It's not unusual for clients to volunteer their darkest secrets in the very first session: "I've never told anyone this before..."
