I am Robbie Ashby, an integrative counsellor committed to tailoring my therapeutic approach to meet the unique needs of each client. Drawing from a variety of therapeutic models, I craft personalised sessions that address the individual challenges and aspirations of those I support. My model of therapy draws primarily on psychodynamic and person-centred theory, focusing on the therapeutic relationship as we work together. I also have knowledge of CBT, which I often use in my work with the NHS.

My focus is on identifying the underlying triggers for emotional distress, including anxiety, anger, and feelings of shame or guilt, and I employ a range of techniques to address these issues effectively. I work with people experiencing a wide range of difficulties from many different backgrounds, where everyone’s story for coming to therapy is different

I offer both long-term and short-term individual therapy, with the length of therapy generally being something we would discuss in our first session. In the case of longer-term therapy, we would frequently review progress as the therapy continues to consider what work remains and when it might be appropriate to conclude.
