About the Therapist

​

Bill Merrington has over thirty years of experience as an integrated therapist. He believes that the client is the expert of their lives and with the right support can overcome obstacles to reach their full potential.

Life can be challenging at any stage, both from the past and the present. A common aim for therapy is to reach a place of understanding and accepting ourselves more fully, and feeling empowered to make choices that have a positive impact on our well being and happiness.

Being an integrated therapist Bill adapts the way he works to best suit each client’s needs, using different theoretical approaches in practice. 

Bill is experienced in person centred therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy, CBT hypnotherapy, EMDR for abuse and trauma, ACT therapy, play therapy, and a variety of ways of handing grief and loss. 

 

Having been a priest for many years, Bill is experienced in relating to those who have faith and belief issues.

Bill has worked in various organisations including 11 years in universities working with staff and students; hospitals, prisons and schools. He particularly specialised in  supporting senior management in organisations.
