Welcome to Orbit Counselling. My name is Ben Payne and I'm passionate about helping you navigate life's challenges with greater clarity, confidence and support. I provide professional, confidential therapy in Shrewsbury and Oswestry as well as working online and over the telephone.
I offer a warm, compassionate and non-judgemental space where you can talk openly about anything that is affecting you. Whether you’re experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, stress, anger, low self-esteem or major life changes, I will work with you at your own pace to help you better understand your thoughts, feelings and experiences.
My person-centred approach is based on the belief that every individual has the capacity for growth, healing and positive change. Rather than telling you what to do, I provide a safe and supportive environment where you can explore what matters most to you, gain clarity, and rediscover your own inner strengths and resilience.
Together, we can create a counselling journey that feels right for you.
Counselling in Oswestry
I specialise in supporting people through difficult times and offer affordable and private, face-to-face, counselling from a comfortable confidential room at The Movement Centre, RJAH Hospital in Oswestry. For greater flexibility, I also provide:
- Online sessions to clients UK-wide via video call
- Counselling over the telephone.
Whatever your circumstances, I aim to make accessing professional counselling as straightforward, affordable and comfortable as possible.
Counselling in Shrewsbury
Through my partnership with Lingen Davies Cancer Support, I also provide counselling at Royal Shrewsbury Hospital for eligible individuals affected by cancer. If you would like to learn more about this service and whether you qualify, please visit the dedicated information page.
