DAVE BANKS
In-person consultations in Covent Garden and Online

My name is Dave Banks and I'm a Senior Associate Counsellor. I work with a whole variety of issues, particularly focusing on conversations around bereavement and grief, relationship issues, men's issues, porn addiction and sex, and spiritual abuse. My approach is custom-built around you, looking both at patterns in life and the here-and-now, and considering different systems and life-phases you may find yourself in. I value deep and thought-provoking questions, and weave these into our work as I seek to journey alongside you and assist you to make your own choices in your own life.

Training and experience

I empathise with not fitting boxes particularly well in life. I'm an eclectic collection of loves and interests, knowledge and insight. My background before I "extra-trained" in Counselling and Supervision is Theology, and enjoy the interface between Christian Spirituality and Psychology. My idea of a restful time is a good book or a cross-stitching pattern, with a warm blanket, oat hot chocolate, and a cracking view (especially if it's raining!). I'm overly addicted to white chocolate and roast potatoes.
