What’s bothering you?

Yes, life can be unfair, and living can be overwhelming.

Challenges can come any time in our lives. Sometimes, we get stuck, confused, and frustrated. We may lose the ability to trust our instinctive thoughts and feelings from our direct perceptions, which may distort our evaluations and thus paralyze our decision-making. When an issue becomes too difficult to resolve, it helps to share our difficulties with another person. Here at On Becoming, you will find a professional counselling psychotherapist who will:

Provide an ideal safe and secure space for you to disclose your innermost thoughts and emotions

Work towards developing a therapeutic relationship and establishing trust

Satish Parmar MBACP

Your Counsellor

Why Choose On Becoming

I am Satish Parmar, a Humanistic Counsellor. The humanistic approach is to value the uniqueness of each individual and, through counselling, it aims to empower individuals to resolve their present issues and minimize their difficulties.

My Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling consisted the study of three humanistic approaches:

Person-Centered
Transactional Analysis
Gestalt

These three approaches aim to assist a counsellor, in understanding a person as a whole and also assist clients in their analysis of their thought processes and how they view themselves – their self-image or the self-concept. After qualifying and completing my two placements in 2010, of which one was at an addiction centre and the other in a GP surgery, I set up my private practice. Since qualifying in 2010, I have worked with hundreds of clients with presentings issues ranging from dealing with anxiety to someone having attempted suicide. Counselling is a process of looking at one’s thought processes, feelings, and behaviours. Struggles and difficulties can be viewed from various perspectives and depending on one’s personality development and the development of their self-image (self-concept), a client’s presenting issues could be viewed, approached and dealt with less distress.

I am a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and I closely adhere to their ethical principles and code of practice. I belong to the accredited register of the Professional Standards Authority.

My Qualifications:

  • Level 4 - Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling
  • Certificate in Motivational Interviewing
  • Certificate in Mentoring
  • Certificate in Understanding Mental Health
  • Certificate in Coaching

Apart from face-to-face counselling, I can also provide counselling on online platforms. In any method of counselling used, I adhere to my British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) Ethical Principles and Code of Practice, maintaining strict boundaries and confidentiality.
