A place where you don’t have to pretend everything is okay

I’m Laurent, a counsellor based in North Wales.

I know that contacting a counsellor isn’t necessarily easy.

You may have spent years dealing with things yourself.

You may not think of yourself as someone who needs counselling.

Perhaps something has happened recently.

Perhaps things have been building for years.

Or perhaps you simply know that something isn’t right.

Whatever has brought you here, you don’t need to explain everything perfectly.

We can start wherever you are.

My approach

INTEGRATIVE APPROACH

My role isn’t to tell you how to live your life.

I’m not here to judge you or give you a list of things you should be doing.

Counselling provides a confidential space where you can speak honestly, explore what’s happening and begin to understand things differently.

I’ll listen, ask questions and work alongside you.

Understanding some of the barriers that can make it difficult for men to seek help.

The relationship between running, identity, performance, injury and wellbeing.

The particular challenges that can affect mental health and access to support in rural communities.

Professionalism.

Confidentiality.

Respect.

Honesty.

And a space where you don’t have to pretend that everything is okay.

You don’t need to know whether counselling is definitely right for you.

We can start with a conversation.
