Christian Counselling Services
The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
(John 10:10)
For those who value it, I offer an openly Christian approach to counselling.
This could look like turning to scripture for insight, or praying within your sessions.
Get to know Steve
I have been a Christian for 34 years and have spent the past 24 years as part of the Vineyard church in Bournemouth.
During that time, I gained extensive experience in pastoral care, marriage support and church leadership.
I have a particular passion for supporting church leaders, helping them navigate the unique pressures of leadership and move towards greater health and thriving.
I offer a safe and warm relational space, where we can progress towards healing, wholeness and restoration; to have 'life and life in all its fullness'

“Counselling, with Steve, helped me to begin to understand where my pain comes from. It showed me that I can be kind to myself in the places of trauma without trivializing sin. It helped me recognize the shameful thoughts and inner dialogues that were causing me pain. And, it taught me to respond to myself more with the compassion of Christ.”

“We had been married for 14 years and had been through hard times with losing loved ones and one of us becoming very ill and lots of drama, we had become strangers trying to co-parent. We were introduced to Steve, he is so lovely and gracious, to begin with, his room was the only place we felt safe to open up about how we actually felt, Steve is brilliant at helping you hear what each other are saying and how communication is key; sounds simple but it’s not always. Steve has saved our marriage. We have just had our 15th anniversary and are very happy. Thank you Steve.”
