About Peter

Peter Saunders is a UK-based integrative counsellor with two decades of practice supporting people through life’s challenges. He completed his first diploma in 2002 and earned a degree in integrative counselling in 2009, training in approaches that draw on multiple therapeutic methods to meet each client’s needs.

Peter has worked with issues such as stress and anxiety, LGBTQ+ related concerns, relationship difficulties, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. He approaches therapy with the view that each person is the expert on their own story and that existing strengths can be used to move past obstacles and build a more satisfying life.

Taking the first step toward change is often an act of courage, and Peter aims to provide steady, respectful support throughout that process. He holds the NCPS credential, a recognised professional counselling qualification, and focuses on collaborative work that helps clients explore patterns, set meaningful goals, and develop practical strategies to cope and grow.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Peter uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, non-judgmental space where the client’s perspective guides the work. This approach focuses on understanding a person’s experiences and building self-awareness and confidence, which can help with issues like low self-esteem, motivation, and relationship concerns.

He also draws on psychodynamic ideas to explore how past patterns and attachments influence present emotions and relationships. This approach can be useful for people wanting to understand deeper roots of recurring difficulties such as attachment issues, grief, or complex emotional responses.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Peter works collaboratively with each client to identify methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. He helps clients try different techniques and adjusts the plan as progress and understanding develop.

Online therapy with Peter is offered by video call, phone session, live chat, or text-based messaging, which makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. These options provide flexibility in scheduling, allow access from different locations within the United Kingdom, and let clients choose the communication style that feels most comfortable to them.
