About

About Greg

Greg Schofield is a counsellor who practises Person Centred, or Client-Centred, therapy. He draws on his own experience of counselling to understand how hard the first step can feel. Greg aims to offer a non-judgemental ear and steady support for people facing emotional strain.

He presents a calm, respectful approach that helps people speak about difficult things without feeling labelled. He works with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, stress, low mood and relationship difficulties.

Background and approach

He also helps people cope with grief and loss, family conflict, addictions and issues around self-esteem. LGBT concerns are included among his focus areas and he works with people who bring those life threads into therapy. Greg is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, abbreviated to BACP.

He trained as a Person Centred counsellor and uses the core ideas of that approach in sessions. That means the emphasis is on the person’s experience and on offering empathy rather than on giving instructions. Sessions are shaped around what each person needs.

Greg tailors the conversation and the plan to the individual’s goals and circumstances. He aims to help people recognise choices, feel less stuck and find practical ways to move forward. People often seek him out when they want a steady, compassionate space to talk.

He encourages small, practical steps and supports clients as they try new ways of coping and relating.

Online support

How Client-Centred Therapy works online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person in front of the counsellor. It emphasises listening, empathy and accepting the client without judgement. This approach helps when someone is dealing with anxiety, low mood, relationship strains or grieving because it gives space to name feelings and make sense of them.

Greg's background in Person Centred counselling means sessions are shaped around the client's experience. Finding the right approach is a collaborative process - the therapist will work with the client to identify goals and decide how best to proceed. That may include trying different ways of talking and checking in about what feels helpful.

Practical benefits of online work can include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to keep regular appointments around work or family commitments and to have shorter check-ins when needed. The original profile does not list which session formats are used, so please confirm the current options before booking to ensure sessions fit your routine and preferences.
