David R Goodall also known as Richard.

I am a Person Centred Counsellor in private practice since 2006. I believe that my clients do know what they need but are not sure how to journey towards their healing. I have been engaged in Men's work since 2013 and alongside my counselling, I also facilitate a local men's group. We meet fortnightly as a group of 11, looking at how we fit in this world as men. I also work as a professional gardener and use my gardening work as part of therapy. I also offer woodland, walking or out in nature therapy.

I work relationally and so our first few sessions would be more about getting a sense of each other and agreeing to either commit to our work or if we aren't a fit then to step away. Using timelines or a discussion about how we are shaped by our past and particularly during our younger childhood. I also look at Male Architypes, shadow work and Inner Child Work.

We will have a 20 minutes call to checking an establish what you might need. I usually suggest 6 sessions weekly to establish a trusting relationship and then move to fortnightly if that fits.
