In Person Counselling in Goring

I am passionate about what I do. My training established my knowledge and skills in Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT); Psychodynamic Therapy; Existentialism; Person-Centred Therapy. I work hard at making sure that the type of therapy you receive matches what you need. I am confident in my ability to help you navigate your issues, and if I am not the right counsellor for you, I will help you find the right one. I have a particular interest in Men's Issues and helping teenagers transition into adulthood; however, I see a wide range of clients including those with relationship issues, low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, and stress.

Counselling is for anyone who feels they need help. That help could be coming to terms with a particular issue in your life or learning to manage difficult and upsetting feelings. I provide a safe and confidential environment where you can explore your thoughts, feelings and emotions. Although support may be available from family, friends and colleagues; it is often helpful to step outside of these relationships and speak to a professional who has no other emotional involvement in your life. ​

Hello, welcome to my profile page; thank you for visiting. I am an integrative psychotherapist and I work with children, young people, adults and also offer parent reflective sessions. Seeking a therapist can be overwhelming, especially if you are new to therapy. It takes courage to take the first step and it is important that you find the right person for you. With compassion, curiosity, playfulness, and open-mindedness, I provide a safe and confidential environment for exploration of life challenges without judgment.

I am a qualified Counsellor, Hypnotherapist and Bereavement Practitioner with a variety of experience which helps my clients work through aspects of life that are stopping them from moving forward. I work with clients for a variety of reasons such as: depression, anxiety, panic attacks, stress, bullying, fears and phobia's, PTSD, IBS, relationship issues, bereavement and stopping smoking. I also have special interests in Weight Loss Counselling, Couple Counselling & Career Counselling.

Are you a teenager or a young person who is struggling with emotions and thoughts that are making life difficult? Or maybe you're finding it difficult to deal with something traumatic that has happened to you? Perhaps you're a parent, worried about your teenager or young adult? I'm a qualified integrative counsellor and psychotherapist helping teenagers, young people and parents to overcome trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression and low self-esteem. I provide a safe, calm and supportive space to allow you or your child to work through what is causing difficulties and find a way forward.

As a counsellor I will be real & completely honest with you. I will gently challenge to see what's REALLY going on. I don't just ask "how does that feel?" I help you explore issues with the purpose of achieving change and better outcomes.

Life can feel difficult, and we might not even know why. It can be helpful to work through our feelings in a safe, confidential, and supportive therapeutic relationship. I believe the answers are in us as individuals, and that we also benefit from being alongside someone as we explore our thoughts and feelings, and get a deeper understanding of ourselves.

My Clients over the last 18 years have ranged from having simple symptoms ( i.e. sleep disturbances, anxiety about interviews or social anxiety ) to severe symptoms (i.e. severe depression, insomnia, PTSD, OCD, Borderline Personality or sexual abuse). My clients are looking for tools that will help them reduce or eliminate those symptoms but they are also wanting to develop long term functional habits that will help them lead a healthier life. Most of my clients are highly functional but they are struggling with emotional issues in their relationships with childhood abuse, addictions, fears, self-esteem and others.

I believe we all have, in ourselves, the ability to work through our own problems; sometimes we just need the space, time and support to do it.  Talking through emotional turmoil, life experiences or life changes can help you gain clarity and a better understanding of yourself.   Sometimes talking to our friends and family can seem too daunting, often we can’t help wondering if we will be taken seriously and what they might think of us. We don’t want to worry them or think nobody will be interested.   What would it be like to talk without judgment or advice?  Someone who acts as a thinking partner.

I am an experienced psychotherapist working with adults who seek help with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, trauma, relationship and family issues. I believe that everyone has a unique potential for growth. Benefits of therapy can include improved self esteem, reduced stress, more resilience, better decision making, and more enjoyable relationships. Therapy can help you to identify unhelpful patterns that keep you stuck, and make different choices that enhance your life.

There are times in life when we need help. When we feel overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, sad. Situations we are unable to make sense of. I offer an initial free consultation. This gives you the opportunity to find out about the therapy I offer. Research suggests that the therapeutic relationship itself is more important for a good out come than a particular type of therapy. This means that I am going to help you feel safe, accepted and treated with respect and perhaps challenge you in a positive and constructive way, then you are more likely to make good use of our sessions.

My name is Dr Luke Bosdet and I am a Principal Clinical Psychologist registered with the Health Care Professions Council (HCPC). I provide private psychological therapy in Wokingham and online.

Are you feeling troubled, distressed or even confused by relationship difficulties, life transitions, crises, helplessness, grief, isolation, anxiety, depression or loss of direction? Talking to a professional counsellor in a safe, confidential and non-judgemental environment can enable you to understand yourself better, make your situation more manageable and lead to lasting behavioural change. As a BACP accredited counsellor with 23 years experience of counselling adults with various difficulties, I understand how important it is to find the right counsellor to help you. For this reason I offer a free one hour initial session.

My specialism is working with Couples and Families. My aim is to help you work through issues and resolve past and/or current conflicts. Each person has their own perception of what has gone wrong in the family or relationship and you are given time and space to explore and express these thoughts and feelings without blame or recrimination from others. I offer you a safe and neutral space in the presence of your loved one(s) for you to claim your identity and step into your true potential.
