“Why does this keep happening?”
Familiar difficulties in relationships. Pulling away, putting others first, or struggling to say what you need.
INTEGRATIVE COUNSELLING WITH ROSS PREWER
Come as you are.
We’ll make sense
of it together.
A warm, down-to-earth space to talk honestly, feel understood and explore what matters to you.
Online & face-to-face counselling
Get in touchYou don’t have to find
the right words.
You might know exactly what brings you here. Or you might just know that something doesn’t feel right.
“I’m so hard on myself.”
Feeling not good enough, second-guessing yourself, or finding it difficult to know who you are beyond what others expect.
“Somewhere along the way, I lost myself.”
Being who everyone needs you to be, while losing touch with what you feel, want or need for yourself.
Hello,
I’m Ross.
Integrative counsellorBACP member
Ross Prewer · United Counselling
I want therapy to be somewhere you can speak honestly, including about the things that feel difficult to say out loud.
My approach combines careful listening, thoughtful questions and practical support. We take time to understand what is happening in your life and what you want to change.
I work integratively, drawing on different approaches to suit you. We look beneath the surface of present difficulties while keeping sight of the changes you want to make in everyday life.
What I can help with
Anxiety & worry
Anxiety can leave you caught in thoughts that are difficult to switch off, or feeling on edge without knowing why. Together, we explore what lies behind these feelings and develop ways to manage their impact on your life.
Depression & low mood
Low mood can affect your energy, confidence and sense of connection with others. We make space to understand what you are going through and work towards changes that feel manageable for you.
Grief & loss
Loss can change how you experience yourself and the world around you. There is space to talk openly about what you miss, what feels difficult and how life has changed, without pressure to move on or feel a certain way.
Relationship difficulties
Relationships can bring up difficult feelings around closeness, trust, conflict and being heard. In individual counselling, we explore your experience and how you would like to relate to others, including expressing your needs and setting boundaries.
Self-esteem & self-doubt
A persistent sense of not being good enough can shape your relationships, decisions and how you treat yourself. We explore where these beliefs began and work towards a more balanced, compassionate view of yourself.
Stress & overwhelm
When responsibilities keep building, it can be difficult to recognise your own needs or know what to change. We explore the pressures you are under and work on boundaries, ways of coping and practical changes that fit your life.
Addiction & recovery
We explore your relationship with alcohol or other addictive behaviours, including the feelings and experiences connected to them. Therapy can support you in developing different ways of coping and working through difficulties that remain during recovery.
Life changes & identity
Changes in work, family or relationships can leave you unsure of who you are or what you want next. We take time to understand what has changed, reconnect with what matters to you and explore your next steps.
Repeating patterns & old expectations
You may find yourself keeping the peace, proving your worth or always being the strong one. We explore the expectations you learned earlier in life, how they shape your choices now and what you would like to do differently.
HOW WE WORK TOGETHER
Understanding the pattern.
Finding your way forward.
Getting to know you
We explore what brings you here, your background and what you want from therapy.
Making sense of the patterns
We look at your feelings, relationships and ways of coping, including how earlier experiences shape life now.
Working towards change
We agree a way forward, combining deeper understanding with practical work and reviewing progress together.

A LITTLE MORE CERTAINTY
It’s okay
to have questions.
If yours isn’t answered here,
you’re welcome to ask me.
What happens when I get in touch?
You can send a short email telling me what you’re looking for and when you’re available. We can discuss whether I’m the right person to help and the practical arrangements before you book. An enquiry doesn’t commit you to therapy.
What if I don’t know where to start?
You don’t need to prepare a full account of your life. We can begin with what has brought you here, or simply with how things feel at the moment. Finding words can be part of the work.
Will we talk about my childhood?
We may explore earlier experiences when they help us understand what is happening now. We’ll discuss this together; you don’t have to share everything at once, and present-day concerns have a place too.
How many sessions will I need?
There isn’t a fixed answer. We’ll agree what you want from therapy and review how the work is going. Buying a package is optional and doesn’t determine what you should achieve within that number of sessions.
Can I come for individual relationship difficulties?
Yes. We can explore your relationships, boundaries, attachment patterns and how you express your needs within individual therapy. The service offered here is individual counselling rather than a dedicated couples therapy service.
Is what I share confidential?
Confidentiality and its limits will be explained in our counselling agreement before we begin. Please ask any questions about how your information is handled. For an initial enquiry, you only need to share enough to start a conversation.
WHEN YOU FEEL READY
We can start
with a conversation.
A few words about what brings you here are enough.
You don’t need to tell your whole story in an email.
An enquiry is a chance to ask questions, not a commitment to book.
