About Peter
Peter Bramhill BACP helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties. He works with issues such as trauma, addictions, low self-esteem, grief and parenting stress. Peter offers straightforward, compassionate counselling in the United Kingdom and speaks English.
Sessions begin with gentle conversation about what is worrying you now. He listens for patterns in feelings and behaviour and helps you name them. The aim is to find small, practical changes that make daily life easier and more manageable.
Background and approach
Peter draws on Existential ideas alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. This means he will attend to what matters most to you, notice unhelpful thinking, and support values-based action. He also uses attachment-based and client-centred ways of working to build trust in the room.
Over eight years in therapeutic roles have shaped a calm, respectful style. He keeps language plain and avoids jargon so sessions feel clear and usable. Many conversations focus on coping with life changes, grief, career stress and experiences of abandonment or caregiver strain.
Practical arrangements include one-to-one online formats such as video and phone sessions, live chat and message-based work. Costs vary with location and are managed through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a session is scheduled according to therapist availability.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Existential therapy pays attention to the big questions people face - meaning, choice and responsibility. It helps when life feels uncertain or when a person is rethinking values and purpose. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and taking action that matches personal values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and coping with change.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss different methods and try ways of working that suit your needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process where you and the therapist review what helps and adapt the plan together.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video calls enable face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can fit a break at work or use less bandwidth, and chat or messaging can work for brief check-ins or when writing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around family, work and travel commitments while keeping continuity of care.
