Harvey Henley

My availability can be flexible. I am most available on Monday’s and Thursday’s. But i am able to be flexible and will do my best to meet your availability so please do get in contact even if Monday or Thursday doesn’t work for you.

I’m an integrative person centred counsellor. What does this mean? This means I am trained in a wide range of counselling/psychotherapy theories. Allowing me to be adaptable in my work, recognising that each individual and their problems are unique and will require a unique, tailored approach to counselling. I believe you have the most experience in understanding you and I will seek to understand you and your world through you. Putting you first, focussing on your goals and working to explore and manage what you are dealing with. 

I have experience of working with a wide range of issues including: anxiety, depression, shame, self-worth, guilt, loss, trauma, intimacy, anger, vulnerability, relationship difficulties and more. I have a particular interest in working with trauma, for the past 2 years I have been working to support people who have been impacted by rape and sexual abuse. I am open to working with a wide range of presenting issues and personal difficulties. 

I feel counselling works best when client and counsellor work together, in collaboration. I work to include and empower you to have an active role in our work and In choosing how we work together. I will also take an active and engaged role in our work. As our work progresses, I may challenge things you bring to our sessions in line with my commitment to making sure I am always doing my best for you.

I aspire to create a place for you to feel safe, heard, understood and accepted. It’s in this environment that I invite you to explore the things on your mind and what brings you to counselling. At your own pace, you may come to have a greater understanding of who you are and what you wish for in life. I believe that greater self understanding is crucial for making positive changes in our lives.

Counselling may take us to difficult places from your past or present, it may be that through our work you wish to make some difficult changes and these aren’t always easy. I will be here to support you through these difficult moments.

If my approach feels like it might be right for you, I’m able to offer you a free 30 minute initial consultation. This isn’t a first counselling session as such but an opportunity for any questions you might have, to discuss how I work and for you to decide if I am the right counsellor for you.
