Greg Schofield, BACP

Greg Schofield uses a person-centred approach to counselling. He offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people to talk about worries and make sense of difficult feelings. Greg is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and draws on seven years of experience in the field.

He began counselling after his own experience as a client. That personal journey is what led him to train as a Person Centred counsellor. In sessions he aims to listen carefully and respond with sensitivity and respect.

Greg works with many common problems such as stress, anxiety and low mood. He also supports people dealing with grief, relationship and family difficulties, and challenges around self-esteem and intimacy. He will tailor the conversation to the issues a person brings and focus on practical ways forward.

Clients can expect straightforward, compassionate dialogue rather than clinical jargon. Greg emphasises being seen without labels, and meeting each person as they really are. He says change often begins when someone feels heard and understood.

When someone wants to explore deeper hurts like trauma, addiction or the effects of abandonment and attachment issues, Greg offers steady, person-centred support. He also helps with career concerns, caregiver stress, body image and areas such as blended family dynamics.

People choose him for a respectful, empathetic style that aims to empower. He will work with each person to agree goals, adapt the pace, and support the next steps towards greater wellbeing.

Person-centred support through online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on providing non-judgemental listening and empathy. The counsellor follows the person's lead, reflects what is said and helps them clarify feelings and goals. This approach is often helpful for anxiety, depression, relationship worries and self-esteem concerns.

Greg's person-centred stance aims to make sessions feel straightforward and human. Together the counsellor and client decide what to try and how to measure progress. That collaborative process helps match the approach to a person's needs and preferences, so adjustments can be made as therapy continues.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and seeing non-verbal cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quieter voice check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer shorter check-ins or written reflection and want flexibility outside set appointment times.

These online options make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving and other commitments. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt their style across formats so counselling remains practical and available even when meeting in person is difficult.
