Thomas Hurlock-Norton, BACP, NCPS

Thomas Hurlock-Norton is a qualified, registered therapeutic counsellor practising in the United Kingdom who brings a respectful, sensitive, and compassionate approach to his work. He supports people facing stress, anxiety, LGBTQ+ related concerns, grief and loss, low motivation, and difficulties with self-esteem and confidence, as well as those navigating significant life changes. Thomas works in a person-centred and integrative way, adapting conversations and treatment plans to reflect each person’s individual needs and goals. He holds BACP and NCPS credentials - BACP indicating membership of a major UK counselling association and NCPS indicating recognised professional registration and standards in counselling practice - and he draws on these foundations to guide ethical, client-focused care.

Thomas emphasises that taking the first step toward a more satisfying and balanced life takes courage, and he is available to offer steady support through that process. He asks that sessions take place in a safe, personal space and requests that clients are not in public places or likely to be interrupted. If a client attends a session under the influence of alcohol or drugs, Thomas may choose, after informing the client, to cancel the session. He is also unable to work with potential clients who are already receiving counselling or psychotherapy elsewhere. Thomas aims to tailor therapy to each person’s circumstances, helping them to build coping skills, clarify values, and move toward the changes they seek.
