Martin Conway , BACP

Martin Conway is a person-centred, humanistic and integrative counsellor who works with individuals across a broad range of life difficulties. He holds the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and brings a calm, caring presence alongside the ability to be clear and direct when needed.

Peers and clients have described him as having a holding disposition, offering steadiness and containment while also engaging honestly about what is happening in the room. He has particular experience supporting people with depression, anxiety, stress and addiction, though he also works with many other concerns through an integrative lens.

Martin offers both short-term and long-term therapeutic work and has substantial experience working online, adapting his approach to fit remote sessions. His style blends person-centred values with practical attention to patterns and emotional experience, aiming to help people feel understood while exploring ways to move forward.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Martin Conway integrates client-centred principles with attachment-focused work and elements of Emotionally-Focused Therapy to support people through relational and emotional difficulties. Client-Centred Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and unconditional positive regard, helping clients feel heard and accepted as they explore their concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns, useful for issues like abandonment, intimacy difficulties and attachment problems. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people identify, express and reorganize emotional responses to improve connections and resolve patterns that contribute to distress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Martin works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting the balance between exploring past patterns and focusing on present coping as the work unfolds.

Offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, Martin’s online practice aims to make therapy more accessible and flexible. Remote sessions can fit around busy schedules, reduce travel time and allow people in different locations to access consistent support from licensed professionals and therapists with relevant experience.
