Professional Background
I'm Ben Crumpler, a qualified integrative counsellor based in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire. My approach to therapy is firmly rooted in client-centred principles, believing that you are the expert on your own life and experiences. I am committed to providing a non-judgmental, safe space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and challenges at your own pace.
As an integrative counsellor, I draw from various therapeutic modalities to meet your unique needs. This flexible approach allows me to tailor our sessions to what works best for you, whether that's traditional talking therapy, mindfulness-based techniques, or exploring emotions through movement in nature.
I understand that seeking therapy can feel daunting, which is why I offer multiple ways to connect. Whether you prefer the intimacy of face-to-face sessions, the convenience of online therapy, or the unique benefits of Walk & Talk therapy in Cheltenham's beautiful outdoor spaces, I'm here to meet you where you feel most comfortable.
My practice is built on the foundation of flexible scheduling and genuine understanding. Life doesn't always fit into standard appointment times, so I work with you to find sessions that suit your lifestyle and commitments. This collaborative approach extends to all aspects of our work together, ensuring that therapy truly serves your needs and goals.
