My name is Murray Lindley and I’m here to help you with problems that are currently impacting upon your life; some of which I may have experienced myself. Having completed extensive therapeutic work of my own, I am passionate about offering provision, with great belief in the opportunities that counselling engagement can deliver.

Both my personal and professional experience prior to and since completing qualification as a Counselling Practitioner attest to the impact that life can have upon a human being’s mental health.

During a five–and–a–half year period as an employment advisor, when I successfully utilised a range of life coaching skills in assisting people facing various life challenges, I became absolutely invested not only around the subject of mental health but empowering people to help themselves.

Throughout studying towards qualification and since becoming a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (“BACP”), I have been humbled by the resilience, determination and bravery of clients who have chosen to collaborate with me, in attempting to better understand their perceptions and world views. By enhancing this understanding, they have overcome many challenges; making meaningful changes to their lives. This has empowered them to enjoy greater authenticity to themselves and autonomy in decision–making and their relationships with others.

With experience including in excess of one thousand hours of client engagement, I have successfully collaborated with clients to address presentations including anxiety and low self–esteem, addiction, work–related issues, relational difficulties and weight–related concerns.

I realised that the humanistic approach (recognising an individual’s uniqueness and capacity for psychological growth) which I had instinctively adopted with clients in the context of employment advisory, can be extremely effective within a therapeutic relationship.

My practice is informed by the belief that you are the expert in your own life and absolutely have the possibility to achieve your uniquely individual potential for self-awareness, growth, authenticity and contentment.

In working with you, I would offer a collaborative approach and although I can never promise a defined outcome; I do promise to work at least every bit as hard as you. Utilising a non–directive, empathic and non–judgemental philosophy, I would engage with you in exploring your requirements and then we would agree between us your initial aims of counselling.

During the course of counselling, I encourage continual collaborative assessment of our work, to measure your view of our therapeutic relationship and your progression. Throughout our engagement, I will always do my best to make you feel safe and valued, ensuring confidentiality and opportunity to discuss whatever is pertinent from one session to the next.

Session numbers are not limited, but I firmly believe that the absolute aim of counselling is to empower a client to be able to plan towards ending the therapeutic relationship and to no longer need that engagement. There may be occasions where further engagement is beneficial, in addressing subsequent concerns; but a vital component of the work is to aim towards a well–planned ending. This usually includes a retrospective of the initial aims, how they have been met and celebration of what the client has achieved.

I offer engagement via video platform, telephone or text (according to requirement), with anyone aged upwards of 18 years old.

I hold a current extended DBS check and indemnity insurance. My practice and conduct are governed by the BACP Ethical Framework.

Diploma (HE) in Therapeutic Counselling (Level 5)

Cert (HE) in Interpersonal Skills & Counselling (Level 4)

Since July 2021, I have worked both in private practice and in collaboration with a number of prominent organisations, whose focus is to collaboratively empower clients in exploring and where appropriate, challenging their existing perceptions, within a therapeutic relationship. I believe that engaging clients by being present,
non–judgemental, actively listening and maintaining non–directive, empathic and congruent interaction, that the nature of the therapeutic relationship itself can offer enhanced agency, self–awareness and self–worth in their interaction with themselves and others. Within over one thousand hours of client engagement, I have embraced the individuality of each client, working collaboratively with them to explore at their pace a wide range of presentations, drawing where appropriate upon my own experiences to offer clients potential alternative perspectives. In observing client perceptions and behaviours within the therapeutic relationship, I endeavour to facilitate a safe and embracing environment within which to examine how those patterns may be replicated or modified outside of counselling engagement.
