Christopher Tovey

I will be away on holiday and therefore  temporarily unavailable between Saturday 29th June and Monday 15th July inclusive.

Please accept my apologies if you do not receive any initial response when trying contact  me during this period.

I am a person-centred therapist.  I believe that authenticity should be at the heart of everything we do.  I try to help clients achieve a developing sense of self-worth and greater power over their own lives.  My aim is to assist clients in developing and consolidating ways of tackling life's challenges, so that you can find your own meaning and direction.  We work together on understanding problems in living and overcoming adversity.

I also offer existential Logotherapy for people who might prefer an alternative approach to tackling life's challenges.

I have developed my understanding of the importance of finding 'personal meaning' in our lives, during my 4 years of work completing my PhD.

Logotherapy is an existential approach to therapeutic co-action and 'relational recovery' developed by Viktor Frankl.

  I have worked with clients experiencing a diverse range of life issues including loss and grief, post-traumatic stress, childhood abuse and adversity, addiction, anxiety, depression, relationships and autism.

I have a counselling room in my home for face to face counselling.  

I also offer online counselling.

I am able to offer a free 15 minute consultation to establish whether we have a good therapeutic relationship and wish to move foward with sessions. If you do not feel we have a good connection I am more than happy to asist you in reffering you to another therapist/service.
