About
Gareth Young is credentialed in the United Kingdom and practices in line with the UK’s therapy guidelines and laws. He has three years of professional experience working with people facing a variety of challenges.
His clinical experience includes helping clients with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and stress, among other concerns. As a proud gay therapist, he has a particular passion for supporting the LGBTQ+ community, including work with gender and sexual identity struggles.
Working as an integrative counsellor, Gareth adapts his approach to meet each person’s individual needs rather than applying a single method to everyone. He offers an affirmative, empathetic and non-judgmental space where clients can explore their thoughts, feelings and experiences.
Gareth aims to walk alongside clients as they lead their own process of change - helping them to find their rainbow again, no matter how big the storm has been. He recognises that taking the first step into counselling can feel daunting and meets people with care, support and encouragement to be wholeheartedly themselves.
He is a qualified integrative counsellor, holding both a Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling and a BA Hons Degree in Counselling Solutions.

Is Online Therapy the Right Fit for Your Needs?
Many people wonder whether online therapy can really help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties or navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional face-to-face work for most people.
A major benefit is flexibility - you can connect in the way that suits you best, whether that is video calls, phone sessions, live chat or in-app messaging. This flexibility can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and reach support from a convenient location.
Sessions are delivered by licensed professionals and therapists, and if you ever feel you need a different fit you are able to switch to another therapist. For many people, online therapy offers an accessible, practical option to address everyday mental health concerns while maintaining the same standards of professional care as in-person therapy.
