About Me

I’m John Waterston.

I'm a fully qualified and accredited psychotherapist offering long and short-term psychotherapy and counselling to people with any type of emotional or psychological distress. I have over 25 years experience in the talking therapies so, please feel free to contact me for advice and guidance. I will be happy to talk things over with you if you are unsure what kind of help you need or if you want to make a referral on behalf of someone else.

My practice is in a private house in a small Suffolk village, 7 miles south-east of Newmarket. My consulting room there is peaceful, comfortable and confidential. I work face to face and online, using the Zoom video conferencing application, and I will be happy to discuss both options with you. Please contact me through the link on the 'contact' page of this website.

Over the years, I have helped people from all walks of life with distressing feelings such as anxiety, depression, chronic worry, unhappiness, stress at work and at home. I am also experienced in helping couples who may be suffering conflict, distress and confusion within their relationship.

I welcome referrals and enquiries from individuals and couples directly and, on behalf of others, from family members, doctors, social workers, solicitors, occupational health professionals and health professionals generally.

As an experienced teacher and supervisor of Psychotherapists and Counsellors I can support the professional development of other therapists and am also available for coaching of general corporate growth and change management.

I am a fully accredited member of the European Association for Psychotherapy and hold a Masters Degree in Psychoanalytic Studies from Sheffield University.
