Martin Rigby Counselling

Martin Rigby Counselling I provide accessible, confidential and person-centred counselling for a wide range of issues. I help clients explore personal issues in a safe space.

I am a qualified counsellor and a registered member of BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy). I provide confidential face-to-face and online counselling (via Facetime and Skype). All face-to-face counselling sessions will be held in the peaceful setting in the Ashton Remedy Centre, Ashton on Ribble, Preston. I offer flexible daytime and evening counselling appointments (see my opening times). You can book an initial appointment to see me by phone or email and I will usually be able to see new referrals within five working days. The initial counselling session lasts 30 minutes, is free of charge and gives us an opportunity to explore why you feel you would like counselling, if counselling is right for you at this time and whether you feel we can work together. You can choose to have an initial counselling appointment either face-to-face or online. Following an initial appointment you will have time to think about if you would like to continue. If you decide you would like to continue with counselling, in the first session we will make a counselling agreement. This is a working agreement which we will both sign which covers important aspects of our work together including the counselling approach I use, confidentiality, my fees, cancellation policy and your aims for counselling. All face-to-face and online counselling appointments last for 60 minutes and cost £35 per hour. I offer a range of special offers for all clients throughout the year and specific concessions for disabled people, student counsellors and clients experiencing financial hardship. Please keep checking my page for further information and updates. If you wish to find out more about how counselling could help you or you would like to book an initial session, please contact me on the contact details listed on this page. As I develop my services I will be regularly updating the information here so watch this space.

When life feels overwhelming being able to talk with someone without fear of judgement helps you to make sense of your feelings, gain new perspectives and move forward in your life. I work with adults, young people, students and couples to address a range of issues including anxiety, depression, addiction, abuse, trauma, bereavement, low self-esteem, perfectionism, relationship struggles and stressful work situations.



Developing a trusting relationship with your counsellor in which you feel comfortable to talk openly about whatever is troubling you is fundamental to the success of the counselling process. I am a genuinely compassionate, warm counsellor who will listen to whatever you choose to explore without judgement so that you feel heard, understood and accepted. My aim is to help you understand and make sense of your experience of the world. Together we can explore your unique experience, how your current experience has been shaped by your environment and your past. I will support you in this journey of self-discovery using my knowledge of various humanistic counselling theories, adapting my approach to meet your individual needs.



If you feel you would like to speak to someone who will listen and understand, I still have some counselling appointments available face-to-face, online and by phone for the next week. At your free 30m initial appointment we can start to explore your challenges, your hopes for counselling and how we might work together. Please call or text me today on 07399 051697 or email mrigbycounselling@gmail.com https://www.counselling-directory.org.uk/counsellors/martin-rigby
