About Duncan

Christian Counsellor · Psychotherapist · NHS Mental Health Chaplain

Hello. My name is Duncan. I am a Christian counsellor and lay minister with experience in NHS chaplaincy, education and community pastoral work. I offer confidential, faith-aware counselling for individuals and couples, integrating recognised counselling practice with Christian pastoral care. I hold a Master’s degree in Pastoral Studies and an Advanced Diploma in in Psychotherapeutic Counselling. My aim is to provide a safe space for people to explore emotional, relational and faith-related concerns with compassion and respect.

I am a Christian counsellor and experienced lay minister with over twenty years of pastoral service across chaplaincy, education and community settings. I have served as a Mental Health Chaplain within the NHS, and previously as a Chaplain and teacher in an education,al setting.  These are experiences that have shaped my compassionate, steady and thoughtful approach to care.

My work integrates Christian faith, psychological insight and recognised counselling practice with Christian pastoral care, drawing from:

  • Psychodynamic Therapy
  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
  • Person-Centred approach

thus offering a safe and reflective space where individuals can explore emotional struggles, questions of faith, and life’s wider challenges.

I hold:

  • a Master’s Degree in Pastoral Studies,

At the heart of my work is the belief that every person is created with dignity, worth, and value.

Huddersfield is a town with a strong sense of character: shaped by the Pennines, textile heritage, chapel life, industry, education, sport, and close-knit communities across Kirklees. From the hills around Castle Hill and the Holme and Colne valleys to the bustle of the town centre, Huddersfield carries both beauty and burden — a place of resilience, hard work, family life, faith, and change.

For many people in Huddersfield, emotional struggles are not always obvious from the outside. Anxiety, depression, grief, relationship difficulties, trauma, low self-worth, spiritual dryness, or the pressure to keep going can be quietly carried for years. Christian counselling offers a confidential space to begin speaking honestly about these things, while also allowing room for faith, prayer, Scripture, doubt, and the deeper questions of the soul.

I offer online Christian counselling in Huddersfield for individuals and couples, delivered securely by video. This allows you to access support from home, work, or another private place, without needing to travel across West Yorkshire for appointments.

The landscape around Huddersfield gives the town a particular emotional feel. Castle Hill and Victoria Tower overlook the area, while Greenhead Park offers a place of rest close to the town centre. The surrounding Pennine edges, villages and valleys can feel spacious and grounding, yet life within the town can still be demanding. Huddersfield’s history reaches back thousands of years, with Castle Hill recognised as a significant early settlement site.

For some people, this contrast is familiar: outwardly functioning, inwardly struggling. You may be working, parenting, serving in church, caring for others, or trying to hold a marriage together, while privately feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, anxious, resentful or spiritually tired. Online Christian counselling gives you space to slow down, reflect, and begin to understand what your mind, body, relationships and faith are trying to tell you.

Although sessions are online, I work with clients across Huddersfield and the wider Kirklees area, including Lindley, Almondbury, Marsh, Newsome, Birkby, Lockwood, Crosland Moor, Milnsbridge, Slaithwaite, Marsden, Holmfirth and nearby parts of West Yorkshire. Online counselling can be especially helpful if you are balancing work, family, church commitments, commuting, health issues, or privacy concerns.

  • Anxiety, worry or panic. If anxiety is part of what you are facing, you may find my page on Christian anxiety counselling helpful.

  • Stress, burnout or over-responsibility
