Why home visits work so well in Dorchester

Dorchester is a close-knit county town, and for a lot of people that’s part of what makes reaching out feel hard. Walking into a therapist’s office on a busy street, or parking up where a neighbour might spot you, can be enough to put it off for another month.

Home visits take all of that away. We meet in your own living room, at a time that works around your job, the school run or caring for someone. Nobody needs to know where you’ve been, because you haven’t been anywhere.

Kind words from people I’ve worked with

Was great having Mark come to my home. It helped a lot to have control and feel a lot better in my mind. Mark’s a very calm person and I felt safe with the help. He has a very understanding nature.

Andrew

Was sceptical at first, but as soon as I started to relax and embrace the situation it really worked! Wish I’d done something sooner.

Eli

Mark exceeded all my expectations and was brilliant in the way he encouraged me to communicate, and with considerable care and thought addressed the issues I raised.

Questions from people in Dorchester

Do you have a therapy room in Dorchester?

I work a little differently. Rather than asking you to come to a therapy room, I come to you, in your own home in Dorchester or one of the nearby villages. If home isn’t the right place, we can talk about your workplace instead.

Do you cover Poundbury and the villages around Dorchester?

Yes. As well as Dorchester itself, I regularly visit Poundbury, Charminster, Charlton Down, Puddletown, Broadmayne, Crossways, Martinstown, Maiden Newton, Cerne Abbas and the villages in between. If you’re not sure, just ask.

How much does counselling cost in Dorchester?

A one-hour counselling or hypnotherapy session in your home is £75. A block of five sessions is £300, and Blue Light Card holders pay £60. Your first chat of up to 30 minutes by phone is free.

Can hypnotherapy help me stop smoking or vaping?

Yes. Habits and addictions, including smoking, vaping, alcohol, gambling and food, are some of the things people most often come to me for. We’ll look at what keeps the habit going as well as working on it through hypnotherapy.

Need help urgently?

I’m not an emergency service. If you’re in crisis, call 999 or go to A&E at Dorset County Hospital. You can also call NHS 111 and choose the mental health option, or Samaritans free on 116 123, day or night.

Whenever you’re ready, I’m here
