About Martin
Martin Conway is a person-centred counsellor who blends humanistic and integrative ways of working. He uses a calm, caring style and can be direct when needed. Martin has five years of practice and offers both short-term and longer-term work.
He works online and in formats that suit different needs. Martin focuses on depression, anxiety, stress and addiction, and also helps with relationship problems and grief. He supports people struggling with self-esteem, intimacy-related issues, eating concerns and career questions.
Background and approach
Additional areas he addresses include attachment and abandonment concerns, codependency, and challenges linked to chronic illness or disability. In sessions he aims to create an accepting environment where people can talk through painful experiences. He draws on attachment-based ideas to look at relationship patterns and on emotionally focused approaches to identify and work with core feelings.
Psychodynamic thinking helps him notice long-standing patterns, while client-centred principles keep the person's own goals at the centre. People can expect a steady, thoughtful presence in sessions and practical work on the issues they bring. Martin is comfortable working online through different formats and tailors the pace to each person.
He uses his five years of experience to help people find clearer ways of coping and relating. Martin is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Sessions are offered in English and he is based in the United Kingdom.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Martin will work collaboratively to choose what fits each person’s needs, goals and preferences. He adjusts methods over time, checking in about what helps and what feels relevant to the issues being addressed.
Online therapy here is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text‑based messaging. Video calls allow face‑to‑face conversation when that matters. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check‑in. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer writing or need flexible, brief contact. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, travel and daily life while keeping the focus on progress and practical support.
