James Counselling
James Counselling is a private counselling practice dedicated to helping individuals improve their mental well-being. With years of experience in the field, I am committed to providing personalised and effective support to each client. I believe in the power of therapy to promote growth, resilience, and positive change. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or any other mental health concern, I am here to help you find healing and hope.
Welcome to JamesCounselling, where my life's adventures have shaped a profound understanding of the human experience. As a passionate explorer, I roamed the globe, immersing myself in over 100 countries, meeting diverse individuals, and embracing cultures that enriched my soul. Amidst these journeys, I discovered not only the beauty of the world but also the profound wisdom it held about my own self.
For the past 15 years, I have been a dedicated primary school teacher, nurturing young minds and fostering growth in countless children. Simultaneously, I played a vital role in the council's occupational health department, offering short-term, transformative therapy through 6-session interventions. Witnessing the incredible impact of counselling on individuals' lives, I found my true calling in helping people navigate their emotional landscapes and reclaim their inner peace.
Today, I am thrilled to embark on a new chapter as a private counsellor, extending my passion for transformative healing to a wider audience. My journey has gifted me with a deep sense of empathy, compassion, and understanding, and it is my heartfelt mission to guide you towards emotional well-being and self-discovery.

First session – what to expect.
For our first session, we will meet and greet, whether this be face-to-face or online. We will look over the counselling agreement, which refers to an agreement between you and me, regarding the terms and conditions of our therapeutic relationship. This contract serves as a foundational framework that outlines the rights, responsibilities, and expectations of both parties during the counselling process.
We will review the purpose and goals, confidentiality, session frequency and duration, fees and payment, boundaries, informed consent and the counselling ethical framework.
