David Goodman

I offer Person-Centred Counselling in a warm, compassionate, and non-judgemental environment where you can feel safe to explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Life can sometimes feel overwhelming, confusing, or challenging, and counselling can provide the space to better understand yourself, work through difficulties, and move towards positive change.

My approach is based on the belief that every person has an innate capacity for growth, self-awareness, and healing. Rather than offering advice or directing the process, I work alongside you, providing support, understanding, and acceptance as you explore what is important to you.

Person-Centred Counselling is a non-directive form of therapy that places you at the centre of the therapeutic process. You are the expert in your own life, and together we create a safe and trusting relationship where you can speak openly, gain new insights, and develop a deeper understanding of yourself.

Alongside Person-Centred Counselling, I also offer EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) therapy. Where appropriate, EMDR can be integrated into our work together to help process trauma, anxiety, distressing life experiences, low self-esteem, and emotional overwhelm. Combining a strong therapeutic relationship with evidence-based approaches can support lasting healing and personal growth.

Whether you are facing a specific challenge or simply seeking a space to reflect and better understand yourself, I am here to support you at a pace that feels right for you.

I am a registered person-centred counsellor with a Post-Graduate Diploma in Person-Centered Counselling from The Norwich Centre. I am also a qualified EMDR therapist

I am a registered member of the BACP and adhere to their code of ethics.

I am fully committed to the principles of person-centred counselling, believing that the quality of our relationship is the foundation of effective therapy. My intention is to honour your autonomy and help you find your own path, free from any power imbalances or judgments.
