Looking for somebody who will listen?
My name is Guy Butterworth and I am a counsellor providing both short and long-term therapy to adults in east London, covering Tower Hamlets, Canary Wharf, Hackney and Stratford.
We build a trusting relationship so you can explore what brings you to see a counsellor.
You will feel listened to as you come to understand yourself and your challenges better. You will have somebody to support you, giving you the chance to develop in the way that you want to.
There is no true answer to this question.
The counselling relationship needs trust. How long does it usually take before you trust another person with your thoughts and feelings? I am an experienced therapist with a range of listening skills, so if you are ready to be open and honest with yourself, then together we’ll move towards resolving your issues.
I work with clients on an open-ended basis, for as long as they want to. We can also focus on something specific for a fixed length of time. We will look to meet every week for three to six months at first. As the therapeutic relationship develops, you’ll delve into difficult emotions and thoughts, and begin to make sense of them.
Ongoing support for self-care for lower level needs will see us meet every other week for as long as you find the work to be useful.
Send me a message so we can arrange a free consultation phone call. This usually lasts about 10 minutes. The consultation gives you a chance to explain what you want from counselling. It also gives you the chance to ask me any questions you might have.
Once we’ve decided we’re a good fit, we can either meet at my therapy space in east London. We could also meet online or talk on the phone.
Please contact me if you have any questions about how counselling works, or to arrange an initial assessment appointment. We can discuss why you are thinking of coming to counselling, whether it could be helpful for you and whether I am the right therapist to help. I am happy to discuss any queries or questions you may have prior to arranging an initial appointment.
Enquiries are usually answered within 24 hours, and all contact is strictly confidential and uses secure phone and email services. Find out more by reading my Privacy Policy.
