David Curl

I have availability for new counselling clients, beginning from September - some flexibility, though Tuesday or Thursday mornings preferred.

If you’re looking at this directory page because you’re looking for support, well done: to have started looking is an important and often a brave step.

Whether you end up meeting with me for counselling, with another counsellor, or receiving other help, please be assured that support is out there.

I am currently able to offer counselling via Zoom or by phone, with a limited number of spaces on weekday mornings (online only).

I wish you well with your search, and look forward to hearing from you if you decide to contact me. 

I have been a member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) since 2004. 

This means that I have completed a recoginsed counselling training programme over the course of a number of years, and also that I work within the BACP’s Ethical Framework for the Counselling Professions.  

I've also been working 'in private practice' with both teenagers and adults since 2018. In the last five years, I've also worked for a leading UK-wide digital mental health service, for a local mental health charity, and in three local schools.

First sessions are offered at a lower fee of £10; subsequent sessions are £60, with a limited number of concessionary places if you are currently on benefits or a low income.

A first session - offered with no obligation or expectation that you must then book further sessions - offers me the chance to explain a bit more about counselling generally, and for you to begin to speak about, and get some perspective on, the concerns that have led to you being interested in counselling as a possible way forward.
