About Sean Wallis
Sean Wallis is an integrative therapist with five years of experience working across a range of therapeutic environments. He combines person-centred practice with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and psychodynamic approaches to build a flexible, evidence-informed way of working that responds to each person's needs.
His practice is grounded in a relationship-based framework that prioritises trust, collaboration, and a pace that feels comfortable for the client. Training in integrative therapy allows him to draw on multiple pathways and tailor sessions to what feels most supportive in the moment.
Sean's background includes roles in therapeutic children’s homes, specialist provision schools, a local college, and a suicide prevention charity. Those varied settings have shaped a responsive and relational style, and he also offers support and training to others entering the therapeutic field. Much of his work is attuned to attachment and trauma, and he recognises that beginning therapy can bring mixed emotions.
To help people take the first step he offers an optional shorter initial check-in session - a space to explore what therapy might look like and to assess whether it feels like the right fit. Early sessions typically focus on establishing a secure, collaborative foundation and moving forward at the client's pace while honouring each person's unique story.
He holds the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
