Simon Crompton Psychotherapy

Low Cost Psychotherapy in Monmouthshire

I have been a counsellor since 2005 within the NHS and various charities. During this time I have gained many years experience working with a wide range of people and issues. 

I am passionate about meeting someone where they are in their life, and helping them to move forward.

My practice is based in Abergavenny and online. My fees are £40 for a 60 minute session, I provide an initial 15 minute phone call free of charge for us to meet and for you to get to know me a little.

I am currently a trainee Psychotherapist in my fourth year of training with the Welsh Psychotherapy Institute in Cardiff. This is a UKCP accredited course and I am bound by their code of ethics.

Alongside my work as a therapist i am also a musician. Being a musician is at the core of who i am and is something that has carried me well throughout the years.

 


About Me image
I practice what is called Gestalt Therapy which believes that everybody has the skills and resources to live a satisfying and rewarding life. Often we can become stuck in fixed patterns and beliefs about ourselves and the world which can stop us moving forward. These beliefs and patterns are sometimes formed in childhood or sometimes later on in our lives. Gestalt aims to uncover these patterns and help to replace them with new and more creative ways of being.

Sometimes it can be difficult to talk to friends and family about how we are feeling. I aim to offer a safe and compassionate place for you to explore what might be going on for you.

I see my aim as a therapist to help you see more clearly what your situation is, how you are part of it, and to experiment with finding new ways of resolving any difficulties. 



“The best way out is always through.”
— Robert Frost
