Welcome to Orbit Counselling. My name is Ben Payne and I’m a qualified person-centred counsellor covering Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin, and Mid Wales. I'm dedicated to supporting you on your journey towards personal growth and well-being.
In a warm, empathetic, and non-judgmental space, I work alongside you to explore your thoughts, feelings, and challenges at your own pace.
My approach is rooted in the belief that every individual has the capacity for self-healing and positive change. Whether you are navigating life changes, dealing with stress, depression, grief or anxiety, or seeking a deeper understanding of yourself, I’m here to listen and help you rediscover your inner strength.
Together, we can create a journey that feels right for you.
I specialise in supporting people through difficult times and offer private, face-to-face, counselling from a confidential room at The Movement Centre in Oswestry. I also offer online sessions to clients UK-wide via Microsoft Teams.
Please contact me using my email address hello@orbitcounselling.co.uk or phone number 07359 796158.
If you would like counselling in Shrewsbury through my partnership with Lingen Davies Cancer Support, which is due to begin in September 2025, you can contact me using the same phone number and email. Find out more about my work with the charity and check whether you are eligible here.
More details, including counselling room addresses and location maps, can be found on the contact page. When you reach out, I will get back to you within two working days, apart from times when I’m unwell or on annual leave when there will be recorded phone or out of the office email messages so you know when I will be back in touch.
