About Counselling and Psychotherapy in Carlisle

My name is David Gibbons and I offer individual counselling and psychotherapy as well as couples counselling using Transactional Analysis.

My Counselling and Psychotherapy Practice is based in Carlisle, and I offer you the opportunity to discuss aspects of your life or relationships that you may find challenging. 

I work both long and short term with adults, adolescents and couples. Whilst my main training is in Transactional Analysis Psychotherapy, I have also trained in counselling for children and adolescents, as well as a diploma level training in working with severe and complex traumas and suicide. I do not work directly with children and young people, but my training provides me with a solid understanding of human development. 

My therapy room is a comfortable, private, confidential, safe and supportive space. You can bring any issues, worries and concerns here. Only you know what life is like for you. However, If you choose to come to therapy, I will work empathically alongside you and I will help you explore changes you would like to make. Following this, you will be able to put change into action at a pace that is right for you.

I am a member of UKATA and a registered member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy.

If you would like to book a reduced-price consultation, please message or phone me on 07976 667280 or get in touch via the form on this page.

Opening Hours

I work Monday to Thursday. Sessions are 50 minutes long for individual therapy and 90 minutes long for couples counselling. I see clients throughout the day, with sessions starting from 9:00am and a final session starting at 6:30 pm. Hopefully, this will help if you need to arrange appointments around work or childcare.

Online Counselling and Psychotherapy

As well as working face to face I also offer online counselling sessions via Zoom. The program is available free for any Apple, Android or Windows smartphone, tablet, laptop or computer. 
I do not offer couples therapy online. Individual sessions last 50 minutes and information regarding payment, set up, and other practicalities is available on request. Contact me by phone at 07976 667280, message me, or get in touch via the form on this page.

Low-Cost Counselling and Psychotherapy

I offer some low-cost counselling and psychotherapy sessions for those on a reduced income. If you are on a reduced income, call me for further details.

Your first Session is at a reduced price.

A critical element in the success of therapy is the working relationship between client and therapist. This is the reason that I offer a first session at £40:00. This will help both you and me decide if we are best suited to working together.
I am also happy to answer any questions you may have about therapy. Click on the links above to find out more about ways of working, fill in our contact form, or call me for a chat on 07976 667280.
