About Patrick Whelan
He is a fully qualified counsellor registered with the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) and brings over 4 years of professional experience, with accreditation being sought in the near future. His background includes focused work with depression and anxiety, workplace burnout, stress, relationship difficulties, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence among other concerns.
Patrick works with a motivational, pragmatic, solution-based style and places emphasis on treating people with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. He tailors programmes to each person’s needs, drawing on his integrative training to apply a variety of skills rather than forcing a single method.
He is qualified to offer cognitive behavioural therapy - commonly known as CBT - either as a standalone approach or blended into broader counselling sessions to introduce practical coping strategies and exercises. Patrick aims to make the first steps toward therapy less daunting and something clients can look forward to.
His more recent work has included supporting NHS professional staff during a time of crisis, bringing that experience into his wider practice.
