Compassionate, confidential counselling for anxiety, relationships, loss and life’s difficult seasons — grounded in Christian faith.

About Duncan

Christian Counsellor · Psychotherapist · NHS Mental Health Chaplain

I’m Duncan Whelan, a Christian counsellor and pastoral practitioner with more than twenty years’ experience across NHS mental health chaplaincy, education and Christian ministry.

I offer a calm, confidential space where you can talk openly about what’s happening in your life without judgement or pressure. My counselling integrates recognised therapeutic approaches with Christian faith where this is helpful to you.

You don’t need to have everything worked out before getting in touch. Sometimes the first step is simply having a conversation.

What Clients Say

"Duncan is an excellent counsellor. His approachable kind and patient manner really puts you at ease
Belinda
I would like to thank Christian Counselling for the caring support provided to me over these past few months. Duncan supported me as I talked about some of the difficult experiences I've had in recent years, and also not so recent ones. I felt very heard, understood, accepted and validated by him, and I think the main outcomes for me have been letting go of some regrets, feeling happier within (and about) myself and a renewed sense of vision for my life. I personally sought counselling to work out why I had felt sad and stuck for some time, and am very pleased to have gained a fuller understanding of my issues, how they have held me back plus explore ideas of how to move forward.

Duncan is insightful and incredibly understanding.

My therapeutic relationship with Duncan has been life-changing. We first met during the pandemic. I felt fragmented and bewildered, with contrary forces pulling me in different directions. Duncan has an extraordinary gift for being mindful and present to others, and it was this deep listening that initiated my journey towards healing. I'm reminded of the disciples' walk from Jerusalem to Emmaus. Jesus appears and helps them to reinterpret all the events that seem so discouraging, dispelling their sadness. Duncan helped me in the same way, enabling me to uncover my deepest desires, just as the disciples' hearts burned within them. Our shared Christian faith was enormously important. Duncan is dedicated to truth as revealed in Scripture and has insight into the mysterious ways God works through a life of contemplative prayer. With Duncan's support I have found unity and equilibrium within myself, allowing the contrary forces to work together for my good and the good of others. His gift to me continues to bear fruit every day.
