About Peter
Peter Gratrix is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with seven years of professional experience. He works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief and low self-esteem. He aims to meet each person with respect, sensitivity and compassion and shapes conversations to the needs of the individual.
He tailors the way he talks and plans therapy to each person’s situation. That might mean short practical goals one week, and slower, reflective sessions the next. He offers support for a wide range of concerns including addictions, relationship and intimacy difficulties, parenting strains, career worries, and sleep problems.
Peter uses client-focused methods that centre on the person’s own goals. He also draws on mindfulness exercises to help manage unhelpful thoughts and feelings. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques are used when people want clearer steps forward and sustained change.
People who come for help can expect a straightforward, down-to-earth approach. Sessions are aimed at helping people talk through what matters and find manageable ways to cope. He is open to discussing fatherhood issues, veteran and armed forces matters, and working with people facing trichotillomania.

How his approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s perspective and priorities. The therapist listens without judgement and helps people clarify what matters to them, which supports work on issues like low self-esteem, grief and stress.Mindfulness Therapy involves simple attention and breathing exercises to reduce the intensity of anxious or distressing thoughts. These practices can help with sleep problems and ongoing worry by teaching gentle ways to notice and shift attention.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and may adapt techniques as the work progresses.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, for example by avoiding travel or allowing shorter check-ins during a lunch break. Because the biography does not list which session formats are offered, confirm the available options before booking. Many people find video or audio sessions useful for talking through practical problems and practising mindfulness exercises at home, while others prefer different arrangements depending on their day-to-day routine.
