Welcome to Dave Barthram, Counselling, Life Coaching, Mentoring & Supervision
I am a counsellor, life coach, mentor and supervisor. I offer life coaching, executive coaching, brief and long term counselling, non-managerial mentoring, counselling supervision and spiritual healing. I also offer a new approach to life using the universal law of attraction as written about in, “Excuse me, your life is waiting” by Lynn Grabhorn.

I am a counselling supervisor and a facilitator of Human Relations Diploma courses with the Oasis School of Human Relations in Boston Spa. I practice in Ilkley, Otley and Boston Spa in West Yorkshire and Skipton in North Yorkshire. Being on the border of West Yorkshire and North Yorkshire and close to Leeds and Bradford, many of the people I work with live in Leeds, Bradford and surrounding areas of West Yorkshire. I also meet with people who live in Harrogate, Skipton and Settle in North Yorkshire and just into Lancashire. However, I have had clients come to me from Cumbria, Northumberland and even Spain!

I counsel and coach individuals on a range of issues, including, change, loss, bereavement, relationship, spirituality, anxiety, depression, stress, redundancy, retirement, career/professional development and life stage work. I also counsel couples who want to address issues in their relationship. I have a growing supervision practice. I particularly enjoy non managerial mentoring with managers who may want to change the culture within their organisation or simply to be the best that they can be. I also enjoy working with spiritual issues.

I am an accredited counsellor within the Oasis Practitioner Community. My practice is re-accredited periodically to assure you of a high standard of care and professional competence.

So, if you are looking for counselling, life coaching, mentoring or supervision or perhaps you are not sure what you want, do get in touch to find out if I might be the person to help you. I offer a first session free just for that reason.

How do I Work?:
I believe you do not have to be poorly to get better. You just have to want to get more out of life. Whilst I work with stress, loss, relationship difficulties, anxiety and life crises, I also work to help you to recognise and use your own individual guidance system and to help you to feel good about yourself and become more confident. I use your personal experience as the basis for whatever changes you need to make.

I evaluate my work in frequent supervision sessions where I am always looking to develop my practice. I am happy to offer spiritual healing if requested.
