This kind of therapy feels rather different to ones which use set worksheets and protocols. I don\u2019t make diagnoses or prescribe medication (but I am equipped to work with issues of withdrawal or dependence on prescribed drugs). I will not give advice or life-strategies for particular situations. I am hear to listen with respect, to give you room to put your experience into words, and to help you find new perspectives and options within yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I first trained as an <em>integrative <\/em>counsellor, which allowed me to develop a way of working that combined interpersonal and psychoanalytic approaches to therapy. I also paid close attention to the ways our social environment informs who we are. Since then, I have deepened my practice through yearly training, and I still consider closely what happens <em>between<\/em> people, and how what lies outside of our awareness can influence us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Theories which inform my approach suggest our formative experience happens largely through interaction with others. Counselling &amp; psychotherapy make it possible to reactivate these potentials, and in the context of our speaking together new possibilities for living can be realised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What to Expect<\/strong><br>Entering therapy acknowledges a sincere commitment to yourself. An opportunity to be inquisitive about your inner life and your connection with others. Here, you may speak openly about whatever matters to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>People who try this for a time often discover a capacity to notice, feel and live with different kinds of emotions. The path of therapy is seldom direct, and we may be surprised along the way, perhaps finding ourselves speaking about your dreams, fascinations and longings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Thinking About Change<br><\/strong>I am sensitive to how individual identity sits alongside social belonging. Both can be precious to us, but also sources of conflict or dilemma. I also know how desire for change can be challenged by the need for stability, or by fearing we\u2019ll lose something fundamental to who we are. Whether this concerns <strong>sexuality<\/strong>, <strong>gender<\/strong>, <strong>spirituality<\/strong>, being a <strong>carer <\/strong>for a dependent \u2014 or anything else \u2014 it is only by respecting these complexities that we can reach a position which feels truly your own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wherever your experience hasn&#8217;t met with recognition, as can happen in contexts like living with <strong>disability<\/strong>, being <strong>neurodivergent<\/strong>, surviving <strong>abuse<\/strong> or dealing with <strong>political<\/strong> and <strong>environmental<\/strong> threat, I would especially welcome working with you. Therapy can become somewhere the specific, private and personal needn&#8217;t always stay silent.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-container-core-column-is-layout-22223934 wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-border-color has-tertiary-background-color has-background is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\" style=\"border-color:#333333;border-width:3px;border-radius:10px;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50);padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--20);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--20);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--20);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--20)\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-josefin-sans-font-family\" style=\"margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0\">My Credentials:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul style=\"margin-top:0;margin-right:0;margin-bottom:0;margin-left:0\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>UKCP* <\/strong>registered<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>UKAHPP Higher Accredited Psychotherapeutic Counsellor*<\/strong>*<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>PNCPS Professional Accredited**<\/strong>*<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>BA (hons) Integrative Counselling<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Certificate in Online and Telephone Counselling<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Enhanced Disclosure Barring<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Further professional development<strong> <\/strong>to work with <strong>complex trauma (CPTSD)<\/strong>, <strong>prescribed drug dependence,<\/strong> <strong>domestic abuse<\/strong>, <strong>attachment<\/strong> <strong>theory<\/strong>, <strong>interpersonal neurobiology<\/strong>, <strong>younger adults<\/strong> and through the <strong>psychoanalytic <\/strong>approach.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\">* <a href=\"https:\/\/www.psychotherapy.org.uk\/\" title=\"\"><em>United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy<\/em><\/a><br>** <em><a href=\"https:\/\/ahpp.org.uk\/\" title=\"gramdavies\">UK Association of Humanistic Psychology Practitioners<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\" style=\"margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40)\">*** <em><a href=\"https:\/\/ncps.com\/\">National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-a89b3969 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-align-center wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/gramdavies.com\/therapy\/#contact\">Get in Touch<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full has-custom-border\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/gramdavies.com\/therapy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Humourfull-Square-500.jpg\" alt=\"Gram Davies (UKCP), psychotherapeutic counsellor in Ayr\" class=\"wp-image-5386\" style=\"border-top-left-radius:10px;border-top-right-radius:10px;border-bottom-left-radius:10px;border-bottom-right-radius:10px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gramdavies-therapy.sirv.com\/WP_gramdavies.com\/2026\/03\/Humourfull-Square-500.jpg 500w, https:\/\/gramdavies-therapy.sirv.com\/WP_gramdavies.com\/2026\/03\/Humourfull-Square-500.jpg?w=300&amp;h=300&amp;scale.option=fill&amp;cw=300&amp;ch=300&amp;cx=center&amp;cy=center 300w, https:\/\/gramdavies-therapy.sirv.com\/WP_gramdavies.com\/2026\/03\/Humourfull-Square-500.jpg?w=150&amp;h=150&amp;scale.option=fill&amp;cw=150&amp;ch=150&amp;cx=center&amp;cy=center 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Adult counselling.
