Clement West, BACP
About me
Hi, my name is Clement and I am based in Cornwall, UK. If you have just been referred to me or are looking to make a change to a new therapist, please take a look at the reviews and then read on...
I work with clients especially to increase self-knowledge and awareness, to perceive things differently, seeing the positives, gaining a sense of hope and freedom, that we can be the directors of our lives. Empowerment, taking responsibility and the willingness to change are all important to the process. And yet all this done with understanding, gentleness, kindness to our selves, seeing ourselves in our best light.
My main experience lies in helping clients with autism, stress and anxiety, relationship issues, motivation, self esteem, various addictions and abuse.
My background is of a holistic, spiritual nature, but rest assured, I will meet you where you are and we will work together to find what works for you.
I look forward to welcoming you to our sessions
Warm wishes
Clement

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Clement West. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
I've been working with Clement for many months. I brought with me all manner of very serious issues and in my time with him that time I've been able to unpack all sorts of life experiences as they happen in the present or from my distant past. Clement would skilfully direct my attention to certain beliefs that were holding me back. Clement also made me realise that my improvements were down to my own willingness to work on and engage with the process. He is a gentle and balanced counsellor and I am very grateful for the opportunity to work with him. I am now in a much better place in my life.

Clement is sensational and I am quite a difficult person to give therapy too. He is kind, great at listening and really considerate

Clement was very helpful, respecting and open minded, also very gentle but still strongly supportive. I knew I can trust him and I highly recommend therapy with Clement!

Clement has been a big help to me on my journey through mental health. He's never imposing, always quick to listen and decisive when he reacts. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs help coping with anxiety or depression or just the general wear and tear of life. Our sessions are something I look forward to, whenever I have them scheduled and if his schedule would allow it I'd talk to him as often as possible.
