Fees & What to Expect

My fee is £75 for a full one-hour face-to-face general counselling session at my private practice in Shrewsbury.
Relationship & Couples Counselling is £100 for a full hour.
My Anger Management Programme consists of six one-hour sessions at a total cost of £600. Contact me if you would like an initial session before committing to the programme.

Choosing who to work with is about more than simply finding the lowest hourly fee. Experience, approach and whether you feel comfortable working with the person all matter. For more than twenty-five years, my way of working has become increasingly practical and focused. My aim is not simply to give you somewhere to talk, but to help you understand what is happening, why particular patterns or emotional responses keep repeating and what can help something begin to change.

A Full 60-Minute Session

I don't work to the traditional 50-minute counselling hour. Your appointment is for a full 60 minutes. This gives us enough time to understand what is happening and work practically with it without having to finish just as we are getting somewhere.

My Full Attention

I leave 30 minutes between appointments and don't book people back-to-back. That time allows me to finish one appointment properly and prepare for the next. When your session begins, I want to be ready to give you my full attention.

You Work Directly With Me

When you contact The Counsellor Coach, you work directly with me, Gary Redmond. You won't be allocated to another counsellor or matched with somebody from a list of practitioners. From your first session onwards, you are working directly with me and drawing on more than twenty-five years of counselling experience.

Anger Management

Anger Management is provided as a structured six-session programme. The programme gives us time to understand your individual anger, identify what triggers your reactions, recognise what happens between the trigger and your response and work towards changing patterns that may have become automatic.
The total fee for the six-session programme is £600.

Relationship & Couples Counselling

Relationship & Couples Counselling is £100 for a full 60-minute session, whether you attend together or come individually to discuss difficulties within your relationship. There is no predetermined number of sessions. We work with what is happening in your relationship and review progress as we go.

General Counselling

General Counselling is £75 for a full 60-minute individual session. There is no package to buy or commitment to a predetermined number of sessions. How long we work together depends on what has brought you to counselling and what you want to achieve.

Face-to-Face in Shrewsbury

Sessions take place face-to-face at my private practice in Shrewsbury. I believe there is considerable value in sitting in the same room and working together without the distance of a screen. Your sessions are private and confidential, and practical details about attending will be provided when your appointment is arranged.

Read What My Clients Say

Before deciding whether you would like to work with me, I encourage you to read the Testimonials on this website. They were written by people I have worked with and describe, in their own words, their experience of working with me and the changes they experienced.

What Happens Next?

If you would like to arrange an appointment, use the Contact & Booking page to get in touch. You don't need to know exactly what you want to say or have everything worked out before contacting me. Tell me briefly what you would like help with, and we can take it from there.

General Counselling in Shrewsbury

People come to counselling for many different reasons. You may be experiencing anxiety, low mood, grief, stress, unhappiness or difficulties in your personal life. Sometimes there is a particular problem you want help with; at other times, you may simply know that something isn't right and want to understand what is happening. My approach is practical, individual and focused on what is happening in your life now. Rather than beginning with a label, I work with you as an individual to understand what is troubling you, what may be keeping it going and what can help you begin to respond differently. With more than twenty-five years' counselling experience, my aim is not simply to provide somewhere for you to talk. We work together to understand what is happening and help you find a way forward.

General Counselling is £75 for a full 60-minute individual session. There is no package to buy or commitment to a predetermined number of sessions. How long we work together depends on what has brought you to counselling and what you want to achieve. Online sessions are also available if preferred.

BOOK INITIAL SESSION

Face-to-Face Specialist Anger Management in Shrewsbury

My Anger Management Programme consists of six one-hour sessions and is individual to you. Your anger has its own history, triggers and circumstances, so although the programme provides a structure for our work, I don't believe in putting everyone through the same rigid curriculum. Our work begins in the first session. Rather than concentrating primarily on controlling anger once it has arisen, we'll begin looking at the emotional process behind your anger — what triggers it, what happens inside you and why the same response may continue despite your best intentions. The programme gives us time to understand your individual anger, identify what triggers your reactions, recognise what happens between the trigger and your response and work towards changing patterns that may have become automatic. The aim is not simply to teach you techniques for controlling your anger, but to help you understand your own pattern well enough to recognise and interrupt it for yourself.

The Anger Management Programme consists of six full 60-minute sessions at a total cost of £600. Sessions are face-to-face at my private practice in Shrewsbury. Online sessions are also available if preferred.

BOOK INITIAL SESSION

Relationship & Couples Counselling in Shrewsbury

Relationship difficulties rarely exist in isolation. Repeated arguments, anger, resentment, withdrawal, loss of trust, poor communication and recurring conflict can gradually change the way two people feel about each other.
I work face-to-face with individuals and couples in Shrewsbury to help you understand the patterns operating within your relationship, what happens when conflict begins and why the same difficulties can keep repeating despite your best intentions.
The focus is not simply on deciding who is right or wrong. We look at what is actually happening between you and what each of you may be reacting to, so that difficulties can be approached from a more constructive and resourceful place.
There is no requirement for both partners to attend. Sometimes working individually with one person can significantly change the dynamics within a relationship.

Relationship & Couples Counselling is £100 for a full 60-minute session, whether you attend together or individually. There is no predetermined number of sessions — we work with what is happening in your relationship and review progress as we go. Online sessions are also available if preferred.

BOOK INITIAL SESSION

Book Your Initial Session

You don't need a preliminary consultation or a lengthy conversation about whether you should begin. Your initial session is a full one-hour working session at £100. We'll begin with what's happening in your life, what you would like to change and what appears to be driving the pattern. We won't spend the hour discussing what we might do at some point in the future. We'll get down to work right away. After that session, you decide whether you would like another one. There is no obligation to continue and no predetermined number of sessions you have to complete. I look forward to meeting and working with you.
