As a chartered psychologist with extensive psychotherapy training, I know the right questions to ask, to listen to what makes you who you are, to appropriately challenge you and then to develop a way of working that will help you to achieve your therapy goals. I will use techniques adapted to you, to help you to better understand what is happening for you. We can then explore what has been blocking you from leading the life you want to lead, and aid you in developing the insight / coping skills to let you lead that life. Coming to this website you have made the first step. Make the second by booking a free initial consultation through my website.

I’m passionate about supporting men with their mental health. There still seems to be a stigma attached to men asking for help. It takes courage to seek support. I’ve run a global business so I can relate to work pressures and juggling the work-life balance. I give you confidential space to explore what’s going on for you. I offer a range of interventions in my work… like having a toolbox; depending on the issue, I use different tools to address the problem. I offer both counselling and coaching. I’m not a ‘fluffy’ counsellor; you won’t need to ‘sensor’ anything you say!”

As your counsellor, I can help you by listening to whatever is troubling you the aim being to help you explore and understand the events or situation that have prompted you to seek help. I can help you explore any kind of problem, whether it is trying to make sense of a past life experience that is causing you some emotional pain, or a current problem that you are finding hard to cope with on your own, or perhaps a fear of something in the future which is holding you back. I strongly believe that having a safe space to talk, without judgment, can help you get clarity and empower you to move forward and make clear decisions about what you can do to improve your life.

It is important for you to feel a positive connection with your therapist if you are to receive the most beneficial experience from Psychotherapy. I believe that the healer is within you, but understand that it is difficult for anyone to self-heal without support. My purpose is not only to assist you with the healing process but also to facilitate your change and growth and help you to naturally awaken your own life-supporting behaviours. If you feel that my approach resonates with you, please contact me to arrange an initial meeting.
