About Peter
Peter Borowiec is a BACP-registered Person/Client-Centred counsellor in the South of England with seven years of experience. He works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, anger, low self-esteem and relationship strain. Peter also supports people facing grief, major life changes, and questions about life purpose.
Peter uses a client-centred way of working. He does not direct or instruct. Instead he listens and reflects so people can make their own sense of things. Sessions are relaxed and paced to the individual rather than rushed through a set plan.
He often helps people who are coping with chronic pain, illness or disability, and those managing guilt and shame. He has a particular interest in LGBT issues and in how power and class shape a person's experience. He also looks at how personal stories and play can be useful in talking things through.
In practical terms Peter aims to help people notice and use their own resources for change. Conversations focus on what matters to the client now and what small steps might feel possible. There is space to talk about feelings, relationships and practical pressures.
Peter's background includes work in charities and academia. That experience informs his approach to mental health and to discussions about social context. Prospective clients who want to begin fill in a short matching questionnaire and book an initial session.
Client-Centred approach and online sessions
Peter uses Client-Centred Therapy, which centres on listening and reflecting rather than directing. This approach helps when someone needs to make sense of strong feelings like anger, depression or anxiety and wants to try their own ways of responding.He places importance on exploring personal stories and how social context affects a person's feelings. That can be useful for questions about identity, relationships, grief or long-term health issues. These conversations aim to help clients notice their strengths and consider practical next steps.
Finding the right way of working is part of the process. Peter will work collaboratively to decide what approach fits the client's needs, goals and preferences. He discusses options openly and adjusts as the work progresses.
