About Peter
Peter Waters is a counsellor registered with NCPS and has 17 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related concerns and depression. He also supports those dealing with addiction, grief, sleep and eating issues, and people navigating changes like separation or loss.
He uses clear, conversational sessions and focuses on practical steps people can take between meetings. His background includes a mix of talking therapies, and he draws on approaches that help with thinking patterns, present experience, and personal values. This can be useful for someone adjusting to a new household or managing loyalty conflicts in blended family situations.
Peter pays attention to how life events like adoption, abandonment, or separation affect daily routines and relationships. He also addresses attachment issues, body image, codependency and concerns linked to autism and avoidant personality traits. He works with topics some clients find difficult to talk about, including kink and alternative sexual culture, domestic violence, and complex grief.
Sessions follow a client-centred stance while also using cognitive behavioural tools and mindfulness techniques when helpful. Discussions aim to clarify problems, test practical changes, and build skills for coping with stress and mood swings. He accepts international clients and offers services in English.

How his approaches translate to online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting your concerns back so you can find your own solutions; it helps with relationship tensions and deciding next steps in a blended household. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses short, practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, low mood and stress. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve sleep and emotional regulation.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Peter will discuss what seems most useful for your goals and adjust the focus as you go. He aims to agree on small, testable steps and techniques you can try between sessions and then review how they went together.
