At my practice, I offer lots of different types of counselling services – from individual sessions to group therapy. It all depends on what each client needs and what they’ll benefit from. Because a lot of my clients lead busy lives, I also offer online and telephone counselling if that suits their schedule better. Although I always suggest coming in for a face-to-face session now and then, as these are often very helpful.
To be a certified counsellor, you need to have a Level 4 qualification in counselling. This can be as a diploma, or at a degree or postgraduate level. I chose to go down the university route by undertaking a BSc Hons in Psychology & Counselling. This meant that I got a degree and was accredited by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I am now a registered counsellor with over 10 years of experience and have completed a number of Continuing Professional Development (CPD) modules.
Most of my clients have certain goals in mind when it comes to their therapy. Often they want to resolve issues which are causing difficulties in their lives. This may be problems in their personal relationships that they want help working through. It could be with their partner, family, friends, or work colleagues. Or they may want to develop coping mechanisms to help deal with their own mental health. But often these can interlink. For example, if a client is wanting help with their personal relationships, this often has a positive knock-on effect on their own mental health.

Working with Brian Dougherty has been the light at the end of a nine-year tunnel of searching for a therapist truly experienced and specialized in my area of need. I have made more progress in a year of working with Brian than I did in nine previous years of assorted generalized therapy that was local to me. The telehealth platform of Mental Health Care Associates not only facilitates access to effective care outside of my geographic area, but it is also a wonderfully convenient option to schedule and conduct appointments online. Brian does a great job of letting me guide the direction of sessions, goals for therapy, and the level to which I would like for him to challenge me. He is always listening carefully, offering meaningful insights and suggestions, and keeping our work on course. Sessions with Brian leave me feeling encouraged, motivated and equipped to implement what we discussed and continue progress!
