Johann Venter

My name is Johann Venter (BA PgDip MÂ鶹ԭ´´) I offer a chance to reflect on the difficulties and problems you are experiencing in a safe and confidential manner, with someone that is truly outside your day-to-day life. Together we can explore your situation in a way that leads to fresh perspectives - and perhaps a new understanding of yourself and the challenges you face. Counselling isn’t about giving you solutions or advice, but empowering you to make your own changes.

My approach to therapy is to work from a person-centred foundation. This is a non-judgmental way of working, where the counsellor creates the right conditions to help someone move towards their fullest potential. I might also work integratively by using elements from different approaches to suit your individual and unique therapeutic needs.

I have a particular interest in existential psychology and helping individuals find a way towards addressing their difficulties in ways that ultimately includes personal discoveries of meaning and purpose, whatever their situation.

Initial assessment appointments last around 30 minutes. Sessions for individuals last 50 minutes, usually taking place on a weekly basis, and cost £50 per session. I also provide a limited number of spaces for those on low-income or for students; contact me to enquire about availability.
