Chad Newman - Integrative Counsellor & Psychotherapist (Adults, young people 16+ & couples)
Hi, I’m Chad. I am a fully qualified integrative counsellor and psychotherapist, offering therapy to adults, young people aged over 16, and couples.
Firstly, thank you for being courageous and taking the first step towards finding help, which I know can feel quite scary. I'm a deeply caring and understanding person, firmly believing that we may all need some help at times in our lives and that this can feel daunting. Being heard and understood with no judgement enables and empowers my clients to experience and build their lives as they truly want them.
I’m an easy person to relate to, with a warm and gentle approach, whilst always being genuine and able to connect quickly with my clients. We can explore together at a pace that works for you, holding a deep interest in your life, your struggles and experiences. Through insightful reflection, we can work together to understand these more and shed some light on how they show themselves in your life, your physical body responses and your relationship dynamics.
Sometimes this may feel challenging and painful, yet this is where true personal growth or change often happens. I offer a safe and confidential space where you will be truly heard. I will always be honest and compassionate, believing that we are all unique in our own way.
I am trained in using an integrative approach, meaning that I draw from a range of therapeutic disciplines, using various techniques to best suit your needs, incorporating all approaches at times as we work together.
Previously I have worked in senior leadership roles in large corporate organisations and for the last decade in the NHS in various caring roles.
I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), working within their ethical framework and standards. I support people with a wide range of issues including trauma, abuse, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, stress, relationship issues, bereavement, neurodiversity, LGBTQIA+, sexual identity issues, self-identity issues and more.
If you think I may be able to help and support you, please do reach out and get in touch with me.
