Ross Wykes

Ross Wykes is an integrative counsellor who draws on his own experience of overcoming depression and anxiety to support others. He uses a practical, down-to-earth approach and offers steady, non-judgemental support. Ross holds NCPS, which is shown alongside his professional details. He works from the United Kingdom and carries three years of counselling experience.

He focuses on common pressures such as stress, anxiety, addiction, low self-esteem and depression. He also helps people facing relationship and intimacy concerns, anger, and the strain of life changes. He looks at everyday influences like work, diet and relationships when forming a plan.

Ross blends Client-Centred Therapy with other approaches to suit the person in front of him. Sessions aim to be practical - learning skills for managing feelings, improving communication, and handling cravings or impulses. He prefers to build a plan together that reflects the client’s values and needs.

He lists additional focus areas including attachment, commitment and control issues, drug and alcohol addiction, eating and food-related problems, guilt and shame, loneliness, jealousy and questions about life purpose. He also works with men’s issues and midlife concerns.

In practice he offers a person-led pace and clear goals. Most people notice changes after a few sessions, and Ross encourages checking in about progress and adjusting the plan as needed.
