ODAAT - STEVE FAYERS COUNSELLING

Hello, I am Steve - a counsellor based in Chelmsford who has worked with clients from abroad (thanks to Zoom) and all over the country. As a divorced father and someone who has battled addiction successfully, my lived experience has allowed me to offer counselling to clients who are struggling.

The issues that clients can be struggling with range from, but are not limited to: depression, domestic violence, anxiety, sexual abuse and abusing, relationship difficulties, relationship breakdown, child estrangement, and adverse childhood experiences.

A client knows the issues they are confronting. I believe they have the best solutions for those issues; my role is to provide a safe place for clients to discover the remedies and then live the solutions.

The Purpose

I provide safe, compassionate counselling for individuals who are struggling with life. This allows for clients to move from surviving to thriving. I'm here to listen and here to help.

My Approach

I am an experienced therapist who uses a client-centred approach. I work collaboratively with clients to identify their goals and develop a way forward that suits them. A trusting and supportive therapeutic relationship is the core of my work with clients.

My approach to therapy is rooted in empathy, compassion, and non-judgement. I provide a safe and supportive environment where clients feel comfortable exploring their thoughts and feelings. A safe place where clients can explore the change they want.

Experience

I have successfully counselled clients with a broad range of issues. Although I have specific training in Trauma Therapy and Suicide Prevention this does not limit me to those areas. Many clients are struggling with depression, low self worth, relationships, anxiety and stress for example. With the help of counselling, clients are able to change to a more satisfying and less stressful way of being. A way of being where they can enjoy and not endure life.
