Toby Burtt

Would you like to try Walk & Talk Therapy in a picturesque outdoor setting? I also offer remote sessions via video call or telephone. The way that I work is that I listen to your story, ask questions and try to understand what is important for you. My aim is to try to get a picture of how you feel in your life and in your interactions with people. I believe that feeling heard is incredibly healing and that there is immense benefit in having a time where we can regroup and repair. Being offered the opportunity to work with you is something I take very seriously in terms of privacy, confidentiality, punctuality, reliability, clinical supervision, focus and respect.

Counselling

I like to bring a solution-focused approach to counselling. I offer help and support to enable you to make the changes you hope for. Sometimes you may not know what these changes should be. This is not always easy and I understand this. We will work towards to the mind-set that you wish to have. I will be with you as you make the changes you wish to see and offer support during this process.

After we process the thoughts and feelings from the past we can look towards the future and talk about what that could be like for you.

Mentoring and Coaching

I also offer coaching. We can look at what you want to achieve. You may or may not know. We will explore this together and establish a plan to move you forwards in a direction that suits you.

Experience

I have worked as a counsellor with people of all ages in the NHS.

I work as a mentor at the University of Kent. I have coached many young people to successfully achieve their potential and address the anxieties that young people understandably face.

If you decide to enter into therapy with me, we will find a regular time each week to meet. The sessions are 50 minutes long. We can speak while walking together, or in a private therapy room. If you would like to talk about starting counselling, you are welcome to email me to arrange a free 15 minute telephone consultation.
