About Gary
Gary Mewes uses a relationship-focused approach to help people untangle stressful patterns. He brings seven years of clinical experience and works with adults on anxiety, depression, addiction and intimacy concerns.
Background and approach
Gary follows the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy code of conduct and offers a calm, straightforward style. Gary combines relationship work with practical therapy techniques.
He uses the Gottman Method alongside Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people improve communication and reduce unhelpful thinking. Sessions aim to identify repeating patterns, name emotions and test small changes between meetings.
He also supports people dealing with abandonment, attachment worries and commitment struggles. Common topics include control issues, guilt and shame, isolation, fatherhood questions, and separation or divorce.
Gary works with people affected by sexual or porn addictions and with those coping with caregiver stress. Appointments may be video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different schedules.
The practical focus is on clear steps and steady progress rather than labels or jargon. Gary encourages honest conversation and practical homework people can try between sessions.
If someone is ready to begin, the usual next step is to complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange a first appointment. Gary aims to make sessions straightforward and focused on what matters most to each person.
Using relationship work and CBT online
Gary often uses the Gottman Method to look at how couples and partners communicate and reconnect. This approach focuses on practical exercises, conversation skills and rebuilding trust to address conflict, infidelity concerns and intimacy problems.He also draws on Client-Centred Therapy, which places the person's experience at the heart of sessions. That approach helps people feel heard and gradually find their own solutions when coping with anxiety, depression or feelings of emptiness.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Gary will discuss goals and preferences in early sessions and try methods that suit each person's needs. Decisions about techniques are made together so therapy fits the client's situation and pace.
Online work includes video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video lets people use face-to-face conversation and in-session exercises, phone can be quicker when bandwidth is limited, and messaging supports shorter check-ins or ongoing reflection between sessions. These options help people fit therapy around work, family or travel commitments while keeping progress steady.
