About Peter
Peter Gratrix is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with seven years of professional experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression and related concerns, and supports people dealing with motivation, confidence and life transitions.
He uses client-centred work to listen and respond to what matters most to each person. He also draws on mindfulness practices to help people manage strong feelings and stay present. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques appear when someone wants practical steps and forward movement.
Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented when needed. Peter aims to adapt the pace and focus to what an individual brings, whether that means talking through recent loss, addressing persistent worry, or working on day-to-day coping strategies. He describes straightforward planning as part of the process for people who want concrete change.
He has experience with many concerns beyond mood and anxiety, including compassion fatigue, addictions, LGBT issues, intimacy-related difficulties, eating and sleeping problems, parenting and fatherhood issues, career questions, bipolar and ADHD related struggles, veteran and armed forces matters, and trichotillomania. This breadth means he is used to varied presentations and practical problems.
Work with him typically balances listening with action. He helps people identify priorities, try small experiments between sessions, and review what works. To start, users follow the platform’s matching steps and schedule an initial appointment.

How his approaches shape online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s own priorities. The counsellor listens, reflects and follows what the client brings, which helps when someone needs to talk through personal concerns or make sense of strong emotions.Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices. These tools can reduce rumination and help people notice thoughts and feelings without reacting, which is useful for anxiety, stress and sleep problems.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process. He will work collaboratively to choose approaches that match the client’s goals and preferences. That means checking in about what feels helpful and adjusting methods as the work progresses.
Confirm which session formats are available before booking, because the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, it can reduce travel time, allow a shorter check-in at night, or avoid needing to be on camera when people prefer not to. Registered or accredited professionals commonly adapt exercises, homework and pacing to suit remote meetings, and this counsellor aims to do the same when the format fits the person’s needs.
