Ian Deslow

Hello, I'm Ian and I am a qualified male counsellor. 

Starting therapy can be daunting, I can understand that choosing a counsellor/therapist is a huge decision.

How I work is to offer you a safe environment and comfortable enviornment, free from judgement to discuss whatever you wish and together we can work towards your goals, we can work at a pace that you are comfortable with.

My aim is to help people who are struggling in some way with their lives, I work with them to reach a place of understanding, to help them get to where they want to be.

I am an accredited member of the NCPS (National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society) and a member of the BACP (British Association of Counselling and Psychology) I have training in different therapy approaches such as person centred, CBT, trauma informed and more - I use the most suitable  approach for each client. I have worked with charitable organsiations such as MIND.

I can offer short-term or long-term work, face-to-face, walk & talk (outside) or online. I offer weekend and evening appointments.

How I work, I offer the opportunity to speak to me first, I have listed my contact details - phone, email and on social media, and we can arrange an introduction and first session.

These are some of the issues I work with, stress, anxiety, depression, work-related issues, loss and bereavement, low self esteem, and addiction. Please contact me to explore other issues

Fully DBS checked and registered with the ICO

I offer a person centred approach to help support my clients explore their thoughts and feelings and to find ways to cope.

I am also trained in CBT and TA types of therapy.

My practice is based in an office in my garden, which is away from the main house.

In our first session I spend time in explaining how I practice as a counsellor, I am led in the session by you and we will go at your pace. Towards the end of the session we can explore further appointments
