Online Counselling for Drinking Problems · Wrexham
Online counselling for drinking problems for Wrexham, by secure video, wherever you are. The hardest part is often just starting. Online counselling for drinking problems keeps that first step small for people in Wrexham: a private hour from your own space, with no journey and nobody to bump into.
Across Wrexham, from the town centre and the church to Rhosddu, Caia Park and Gwersyllt, and from the streets around St Giles' church, the football ground and the Welsh borderland, online counselling for drinking problems takes the logistics out of getting help: no commute, no waiting room, and the focus kept where it belongs, on you.
My room is in Hove, but the work reaches a great deal further. By secure video I support people throughout the UK, Wrexham included, with the same care and attention as an in-person session.
I also work online with people elsewhere in Wales, including Cardiff, Swansea, Newport.
If you would still prefer to meet in person and can travel to the Sussex coast, you are welcome to, but for most clients in Wrexham online counselling for drinking problems is the natural and effective choice.
Life in Wrexham
Wrexham, the largest town in north Wales and newly a city, grew on coal, steel and brewing and has felt their loss. Insecure work, money worries and the distance from larger centres in a border region all shape what people here carry, even as the town enjoys a new wave of attention.
In a settled, well-kept town where people tend to know one another, there can be a quiet pressure to look as though everything is fine. Online counselling keeps the whole thing private, with nobody to pass in a waiting room.

Why online works in Wrexham
In a town that prizes getting on with things, online sessions let you seek support privately, with no one to pass on the way in.
If you move, travel for work or split your time between places, online counselling carries on uninterrupted wherever you happen to be.
From Wrexham, there's no journey across town and no waiting room. You join from wherever feels safe, and the rest of your day simply carries on around the session.
Working online means people in Wrexham aren't limited to whoever practises locally. You can choose the counsellor who genuinely fits the issue you're facing, not just the nearest one.
However we meet, the approach stays consistent. In our sessions we take an integrative approach, viewing your difficulties from an existential and humanistic perspective. Because you are the one who knows yourself best, my role is to walk alongside you as you build genuine alternatives to drinking.
All it takes at your end is a private spot where you can talk freely, a device with a camera, and a steady signal. We begin with a free fifteen-minute call, then I send a link you join at our agreed time each week.

Start the conversationMy online counselling sits alongside the help available locally, and it can be worth knowing what else is there. In Wrexham, you can access NHS psychological therapies through your GP or local primary mental health support service. You can find support through the CALL Mental Health Helpline for Wales, free and confidential on 0800 132 737.
Private sessions with me usually mean you can start sooner, stay with the same counsellor throughout, and work at greater depth and pace; the two can run side by side, and I'm glad to work alongside any NHS or GP support you already have.
This practice is not a crisis service. If you or someone else is in immediate danger, call 999.
For urgent mental health support, call NHS 111 and press 2 for urgent mental health support. The CALL Helpline for Wales is free on 0800 132 737, and the Samaritans are on 116 123.
