HERE’S A BIT ABOUT ME

As a caring and open empathic person, I offer counselling that puts you at ease and makes you feel safe to enable you to be able to open-up about sharing difficult life issues.Malcolm Bateup self help book 'Live your life like you have lived it before'

Malcolm is very easy to talk to and makes me feel safe and secure. Which is very important when you are talking about your most private thoughts and feelings.

Malcolm was very compassionate… and empathetic with what I had been through. The sessions also helped me find clarity and new perspectives with my relationship.

Worthing Woman, 2019

We had split up when we started counseling, but with Malcolm’s help we are now living together and our relationship is stronger than it ever was.

Malcolm helped me to accept who I am and enabled me to build up trust and form relationships in the future.
