Business Details
Counselling Services in Weymouth
Your Time Therapy was founded by Phil Martin to provide compassionate support for individuals navigating life's challenges. With over 20 years of experience as a counsellor and psychotherapist, I combine a person-centred approach with practical tools tailored to each client's unique needs. My background in engineering and leadership roles in diverse settings has given me deep insights into real-life issues affecting people's well-being. I offer face-to-face sessions in Weymouth and online appointments, ensuring accessibility for those seeking support. Confidentiality is paramount, with sessions designed to create a safe space for exploring concerns without judgment. The service specialises in addressing depression, anxiety, bereavement, relationship difficulties, and self-esteem issues through adaptable therapeutic methods.Concessions are available for those facing financial constraints, reflecting our commitment to inclusive care. As a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and the Association of Christians in Counselling, I adhere to rigorous professional standards. Sessions can be arranged flexibly, with payment options including bank transfer to accommodate client preferences. My approach prioritises building trust and empowering clients to develop coping strategies that enhance their quality of life.
