About

About Greg

Greg Schofield is a counsellor practising a person-centred approach. He draws on his own experience of having counselling to understand what a helpful relationship can feel like. Greg aims to offer a warm, non-judgemental space where people can speak openly and start to make changes that matter to them.

He is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, often shortened to BACP. Greg has seven years of experience supporting people with anxiety, stress and low mood.

Background and approach

He also works with concerns around relationships, grief, addiction and issues connected to identity and LGBT matters. Greg adapts sessions to each person rather than using a fixed template. Conversations focus on what the client wants to change and on practical next steps.

He pays attention to family dynamics, communication patterns and how past experiences shape present struggles. Parents feeling overwhelmed by behaviour, life changes or exhaustion can find straightforward ways to manage day-to-day challenges. Greg also helps people deal with loss, anger, and problems at work or in relationships.

He aims to make the process clear and manageable, step by step. Sessions are collaborative and paced to the individual. Greg encourages honest talk about fears, hopes and setbacks.

His goal is to help people build resilience and clearer choices for the life they want.

Online support

Person-centred support delivered online

Person-centred therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person as they are. The therapist offers empathy, acceptance and gentle reflection so clients can find their own solutions. This approach is useful for anxiety, low mood, relationship worries and coping with life changes.

Using a conversational, non-directive style, the counsellor helps people explore their feelings and priorities. The emphasis is on the client’s experience rather than on labels or diagnosis. This can be helpful for those dealing with grief, identity questions, parenting stress or workplace strain.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which ways of working suit their goals and preferences. Together they shape the pace, focus and practical steps to try between sessions.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different lifestyles. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when needed. Phone sessions are useful if bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Chat and messaging can suit frequent brief updates or people who prefer written reflection. These options make it easier to fit therapy around family, work and travel.
