Gareth Young is a UK credentialed counsellor with three years of professional experience working within the country’s therapy guidelines and laws. He supports people facing a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and stress, and brings particular expertise in working with the LGBTQ+ community on matters of sexual and gender identity. As an affirmative practitioner, he offers empathetic support for those navigating identity, relationships and intimacy-related issues.

Gareth practices as an integrative therapist, adapting sessions to each person’s needs by drawing on client-centered approaches, motivational interviewing, narrative therapy, solution-focused techniques and Internal Family Systems.

He holds NCPS, a recognised professional counselling credential, along with a Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling and a BA Hons Degree in Counselling Solutions. These qualifications support his clinical approach to areas such as grief, addictions, family and relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, ADHD, body image and workplace or career concerns.
