About Gary
Gary Mewes is a counsellor registered with the BACP who aims to help people manage difficult feelings and rebuild connection in their lives. He focuses on issues such as stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, and depression. Gary uses straightforward language and a calm manner to make conversations easier to begin.
He draws on Client-Centred Therapy to give people space to be heard and understood. He also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help identify and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour.
Background and approach
Gary integrates relationship approaches such as the Gottman Method and Imago Relationship Therapy when intimacy and communication are central concerns. Gary has seven years of experience working in the United Kingdom. He follows the BACP code of ethical practice and works with people dealing with problems such as abandonment, attachment issues, avoidant personality patterns, caregiver stress, commitment worries and communication breakdowns.
He also supports those coping with divorce, fatherhood issues, infidelity, guilt, shame and feelings of emptiness or isolation. In sessions he aims to create an open space where people can talk without feeling judged. He helps clients set clear, practical steps alongside conversations about feelings.
Many people find this combination useful for tackling day-to-day problems and rebuilding better patterns of relating. To begin, prospective clients choose the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to the therapist's availability. The platform uses a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How Gary works online
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and introduces small practical changes. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and unhelpful habits, and can give step-by-step tools to use between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Gary will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. That shared discussion guides whether sessions lean more towards listening, structured CBT work, or relationship-focused tools.
The practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into a busy life, avoiding travel time, and keeping therapy in familiar surroundings. Because the biography does not specify session formats, confirm which options are currently offered before booking. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists can then explain how they run sessions and help you choose the best setup for regular appointments.
