Counsellor - Psychotherapist - Life Coach
The Web Site of David Smith
I am a BACP accredited counsellor and psychotherapist and work to their code of ethics and practice. I work with people in either long or short term therapy, helping them understand and potentially resolve a wide range of difficulties.
Typically these may be:
Anxiety - Feeling Low - Loss - Relationship Issues - Stress
Self Esteem - Eating disorders – Addiction
My client base is wide and consists of people from all backgrounds and cultures. They either contact me personally or are referred to me from organisations such as Employee Assistant Programmes, GP surgeries and local health authorities.
I also work within the profession providing supervision for practising counsellors.
My personal philosophy is that I feel different people require different strategies to help them at different times in the work. This philosophy has been developed from my professional training together with broad professional and personal life experiences. It has I believe given me a grounded approach to my integrative practice.
I also have professional training and experience in personal coaching. In this area I work with my clients to help them identify and maximise their abilities in order to reach their full potential.
