Steve Kirkham BACP

Integrative Counselling
​

Steve provides counselling on behalf of the big room cic. This service is for adults experiencing a range of emotional, psychological, and existential life issues.

Counselling Approach

Steve uses an integrative approach combining a Person-Centred foundation with Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) strategies and psychodynamic insights. In relation to client’s experiencing addiction problems, Steve also offers insights and strategies taken from the 12-Step model of recovery. 

Steve's approach to counselling focuses on the client’s presenting difficulties as well as their relevant history and key relationships.  Thinking, behaviour and emotion are explored at the client’s pace. The aim is to identify unhelpful patterns that maybe contributing towards a client’s current problems and for them to find alternative strategies that lead to health promotion and healing. This counselling approach promotes self-awareness, self-acceptance and compassion through the establishment of an empathic and authentic therapeutic relationship.
