I am a fully trained counsellor and psychotherapist and currently teach on a counselling degree course. I have an MSc in Therapeutic Counselling from the University of Greenwich. I am also a priest in the Church of England. Although faith and spirituality inform my practice, my training is based on secular models. I am not a Christian Counsellor, but rather a counsellor who is a Christian. I enjoy working with people from all faiths and none. I value working with people who desire to grow, find purpose, and find freedom from unresolved issues. I have expertise in working with trauma, particularly adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse. I work with adults and currently, my practice is online.

Sponsored Cycle Ride

Paul Eggleton is raising money for the church by undertaking a virtual cycle ride from John O’Groats to Land’s End, but without leaving his house. He will be cycling 20km a day on his exercise bike and tracking his virtual progress south over the next 10 weeks. You can sponsor him on his Just Giving page. All the money raised will be divided between the church to help repair St John’s tower, and Alzheimer’s Society.
