Chris Wilson Counselling

Counselling, Focusing and Trauma Therapy in Bristol and South Gloucestershire

I have ten years experience as a counsellor and trauma therapist, and three years as a Focusing trainer. I run two practices in Bristol, one in Bedminster and one in Filton.

Counselling

Counselling can make a profound difference to your life. With a little support from me, you can get a much better perspective on what's troubling you, which will help you to feel more in tune with yourself and enable you to make better life choices.

Focusing

I base a good part of my counselling work on Focusing, which is a meditative practice for integrating body, mind and spirit. I run Focusing workshops for counsellors and psychotherapists in Bristol, under the name Inner Space Workshops. (More...)

Trauma Therapy

For trauma work, I specialise in Somatic Trauma Therapy and EMDR, which are both proven techniques for reversing the effects of traumatic experiences. EMDR is one of the few psychological therapies recommended by N.I.C.E. as an effective treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder.
