Gary Mewes, BACP

Gary Mewes is a United Kingdom-based therapist with seven years of professional experience who supports both adults and couples through a wide range of life challenges. He holds accreditation with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which reflects his commitment to recognised standards of practice. Gary works with presentations such as depression, anxiety, stress, addictions including sex and porn problems, and relationship and intimacy-related issues, and he also offers focused support for concerns like abandonment, attachment and avoidant personality patterns, caregiver stress, commitment and communication difficulties, control issues, separation and divorce, feelings of emptiness, family and fatherhood matters, forgiveness, guilt and shame, infidelity, and loneliness.

Working from an evidence-informed blend of approaches, Gary aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored and practical steps toward change can be developed. He uses client-centered techniques to prioritise the client's experience, cognitive behavioral strategies to identify and shift unhelpful patterns, and relationship-focused methods when couples bring their concerns. Gary emphasises collaboration, helping each person define goals and choose the approaches that best fit their situation, and he supports clients through the first courageous steps toward a more satisfying and balanced life.
