Life in Wrexham
Why people in Wrexham reach out
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.
Wrexham, Wrecsam, is the largest town in north Wales and, since 2022, a city. It grew on the coal and steel of the Denbighshire coalfield, on the leather trade, and on brewing, being home to Wrexham Lager, the first lager brewed in Britain. The tower of St Giles' Church is counted among the Seven Wonders of Wales, and the town has lately drawn worldwide attention through Wrexham AFC, the oldest football club in Wales, playing at the historic Racecourse Ground. Set in the borderland where the Welsh hills meet the Cheshire plain, the city serves a wide rural hinterland. Districts such as Rhosddu, Caia Park and Gwersyllt spread out from the compact old centre, with Wrexham University drawing students in.
In a close-knit town where people tend to know one another, online keeps support entirely private, with nobody to pass in a waiting room.
Wrexham, granted city status in 2022, is home to Wrexham University and the Wrexham Maelor Hospital under Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board, plus Wrexham AFC at the Racecourse Ground.

These figures are local context from official sources, not a description of you, but they show the scale of what people in and around Wrexham are living with, and why local support matters.
In Wrexham the average anxiety rating was 3.22 out of 10 in the year ending March 2023, marginally below the Wales average of 3.3 (a higher score indicates more anxiety).

The psychotherapy itself
Psychotherapy here goes a little deeper and usually a little longer than counselling, into the patterns, beliefs and early relationships that shape how you feel now, so change is understood at the root and holds.
The approach is the same wherever you live, so rather than repeat it on every page you can read it in full, the methods, what each session covers and fees, on the main psychotherapy page and on how I work.
How online sessions work
Sessions run over a secure, encrypted video link held to the same strict BACP confidentiality as meeting in person. After a free fifteen-minute call to check we are a good fit, you join each session from any private space using a phone, tablet or laptop, no software to install, no waiting room and no journey at either end.
In a border region like this, specialist face-to-face help can mean a trip into the city or across into Cheshire, and for people in the outlying villages that adds up. My practice is based in Hove, on the far south coast, so I am not able to see anyone in Wrexham in person. I do offer confidential counselling by secure video, which reaches Wrexham and everywhere else in Wales, and the UK besides, so the distance never becomes the obstacle.

Psychotherapy in Wrexham
Why people in Wrexham come for psychotherapy
Behind the new attention Wrexham has drawn, many people carry longstanding difficulties that a busy life never quite lets them face. Psychotherapy is the deeper, ongoing work of understanding where those patterns come from, how earlier experiences still shape how you relate and cope now. It asks for a steady, regular relationship, and I offer exactly that by secure video from Hove, meeting week to week wherever you are across the north-east and its border country. The distance from a consulting room, so often a barrier out here, never has to limit how deeply the work can go.

Private sessions with me usually mean you can start sooner and stay with the same counsellor throughout; I am glad to work alongside any NHS or GP support you already have.

Wrexham questions
Online Psychotherapy in Wrexham: common questions
Can I get online psychotherapy if I live in Wrexham?
Yes. I work with people right across Wrexham, from the town centre and the church outwards, and anywhere else in Wales, by secure video, no need to travel to Hove, and just as confidential as meeting in the room.
How is psychotherapy different from counselling?
Psychotherapy usually goes deeper and longer, into the patterns, beliefs and early relationships shaping how you feel now, rather than only the present difficulty. It suits people who notice the same things keep coming round.
Does it have to be long-term?
Not necessarily, but depth work benefits from time. We agree the pace and depth together and review as we go, so it stays led by you.
Will I have to talk about my childhood?
Only where it helps make sense of the present. We follow what is alive and relevant for you, gently, never forcing a return to anything before you are ready.
Can long-term therapy really work at a distance?
Yes. The regularity and privacy of meeting from your own home can help the deeper work rather than hinder it, and the relationship between us holds firmly over secure video. People across the Wrexham area engage in ongoing psychotherapy with me this way.
How soon could I start longer-term psychotherapy while living in Wrexham?
Usually within a week or two. Psychotherapy is deeper, ongoing work, so we start with a free 15-minute consultation to check it suits you. I work with people across north Wales by secure video, with no local waiting list slowing things down.
What does ongoing psychotherapy cost compared with NHS provision in Wales?
Each session is £80 for 60 minutes, £100 for 90 or £120 for 120, after a free 15-minute consultation. NHS Wales rarely offers open-ended psychotherapy without a long wait, so private online work gives you sustained, deeper sessions that can begin straight away.
Can deeper psychotherapy be done properly over video from home in Wrexham?
Yes. Many people find the depth of psychotherapy comes more easily from a familiar room than a clinic reached by a long drive. Working by secure video, I see people weekly across the Wrexham area, with evening slots to fit around work.
I'm in a village outside Wrexham, is that a problem?
Not at all. Sessions happen by secure video, so whether you are in the city, out towards the hills or over near the border, the appointment comes to you. There is no travel to arrange and no waiting room to sit in.
Can I come to a Wrexham office?
No, there isn't one. My practice is in Hove, and I work with people across north Wales online rather than in person. Everything is handled by secure video from wherever suits you.
