About me
I am credentialed in the UK with 4 years of professional experience.
I have helped clients work through stress and anxiety, addiction, trauma, depression and abuse. My priority is to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment.
I also have a background in business. I spent many years in the restaurant sector and was creative director of my own drinks company. This has given me first hand experience of the toll stress and anxiety at work can take on an individual.
Taking this first step to sign up for therapy takes courage.
I am proud of you for getting started!

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Peter Spanton. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
I feel this sort of therapy was not best suited to me.
Peter was understanding relaxed and listened, maybe I need to think differently to a more social face to face approach
Thank you

Peter has been a great support in helping to get me out of a rut. After just one month of weekly calls I have noticed improvements in my overall wellbeing. Peter creates a safe comfortable environment where you can sound your thoughts and ideas without fear of judgement. I would recommend Peter for anyone looking to improve their perspective on life and get back in drivers seat.
