Clayton Therapy in short

Clayton Therapy is the Wellington practice of Robert Clayton, an integrative counsellor working with adults, children and young people from rooms on Mansell Road. Our view is that the combination of long practice and open pricing stands out: over twenty years of therapeutic experience is stated, built on person-centred therapy with CBT, alongside accredited NCPS membership.

Sessions run from rooms at The Studios on Mansell Road in Wellington, working with adults, children and young people across Telford. There is no practice website, so the public face is a directory profile with phone and email routes and a free initial consultation. Integrative counselling blends person-centred therapy with CBT, and fees are published for individuals and couples.

Customer evidence is a small but spotless set, at 5.0 from three Google reviews, and Google is the only public review source on record. This review reads that base as encouraging but thin for a counsellor of such stated experience. A broader base would tell a future reader far more than the current handful can.

What counts against Clayton Therapy, in our judgement, is the absence of a practice website of its own plus no published insurance details, leaving the public record to a directory profile and the listings page. It suits anyone seeking a long-practising Wellington counsellor with clear pricing. Clear pricing and long experience remain a rare combination in this round.

Our verdict

Our judgement: Clayton Therapy suits you if you want a long-practising Wellington counsellor with published fees and accredited NCPS membership [1]. Twenty years of experience and clear pricing stand out [1]. What counts against it is the small review base and the absence of a practice website or insurance details [1] [2].

Questions about Clayton Therapy

Is Clayton Therapy any good?

Our judgement: solid for experience and pricing clarity. It ranks third of ten in our September round, with over twenty years stated, accredited NCPS membership and published fees [1]. The caveats are three Google reviews and no practice website. Read the profile, then book the free initial consultation. The consultation costs nothing and answers most remaining questions.

Is Clayton Therapy on a professional register?

The practitioner profile states accredited membership of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society, alongside integrative training in person-centred therapy and CBT [1]. Accredited membership signals assessed experience beyond a basic listing, which matches the twenty years stated behind the practice [1]. Ask for the membership details with your first enquiry and check them on the society's own listings, and keep a screenshot of the result.

How much does Clayton Therapy charge?

Session fees are published at forty-five pounds for individuals and sixty-five pounds for couples, with a free initial consultation [1]. Published fees plus a free first consultation make this one of the most transparent starts in the round. Confirm the session length and cancellation terms in writing alongside the fee before you start, and compare against one other quote.

Where does Clayton Therapy work?

From rooms at The Studios on Mansell Road in Wellington, working with adults, children and young people across Telford [1]. There is no practice website, so contact runs through the directory profile and listings page. The free initial consultation gives you a no-cost way to test the journey as well as the counsellor. Send your postcode to confirm cover.

How is Clayton Therapy ranked?

It ranks third of the ten psychotherapists in our September round, the pick for experienced integrative counselling in Wellington [1] [2]. Practices appear in score order, with what clients say counting most. Its three-review base sits mid-table for depth in this round, behind the two eleven-review leaders but ahead of most.

How do I get a quote from Clayton Therapy?

Fees are already published, so the quote starts from forty-five pounds for individuals and sixty-five for couples [1]. Contact the practice through its directory profile and ask for the session length, frequency and cancellation terms in writing to complete the picture. The free initial consultation lets you confirm the fit before any money moves. Compare against one other written quote.

What do Clayton Therapy's reviews say?

The public record holds three Google reviews, all at the top rating, with no other platform carrying the practice [2]. A small spotless set reads as encouraging but thin, particularly against the stated twenty years of experience. If you become a client, an honest review would add real depth to a record that needs it.
