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.

Sometimes life can feel small. You might feel stuck in a way of thinking or living that no longer fits. Or something may have happened that’s changed how you see everything.

If this sounds familiar, I can help. I offer a safe, confidential space to talk things through and understand yourself better. I came to this work because I believe people don’t need to stay stuck in the situations they find themselves in.

I’m a fully qualified, BACP-registered therapist, trained in psychodynamic and trauma-informed therapy. I work with people 18+ on issues including trauma, sexual assault, addiction, bullying, boarding school, family relationships, domestic abuse and LGBT+ concerns.

I work as part of a team of online specialist clinical psychologists. We use technology to maximise each session you have and keep you well. We divide ourselves up into areas of expertise – so if you’ve experienced something traumatic, for example, the best professional care you can receive is from a clinical psychologist who has chosen to specialise in trauma. My expertise is OCD, BDD and obsessional and anxiety difficulties, such as perfectionism.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, isolated, or like you’re just going through the motions? Battling depression, anxiety, or the weight of past trauma? Many men struggle in silence, but you don’t have to. Reaching out takes real courage – and you’ve already shown that by being here.

I’m Jeff, a psychotherapeutic counsellor and coach who specialises in men’s mental health. As a male counsellor, I get it – I understand the pressure to “man up,” the difficulty of opening up, and how hard it can be to ask for support. I work with men of all ages: young adults navigating life transitions, dads struggling to connect with their teenagers, and men processing relationship challenges, work stress, or past trauma.

My trauma-informed approach combines emotional healing with practical strategies. We’ll explore what’s keeping you stuck while building real tools for managing emotions, improving communication, and showing up as the man you want to be. You deserve genuine understanding and lasting change.

Our past and present are intimately linked by our memories. Our memories are heavily influenced and based on feelings we had surrounding an event or experience. These experiences may be impacting your life right now, even the ones that might seem irrelevant or insignificant. If we don’t become aware of this connection it will keep affecting our future. Prolonged stress can manifest itself in physical forms, including illness, lack of energy, problems with sleep, headaches, depression and anxiety. My clients are men who have experienced trauma and I see the difficulty men have in accessing their emotions and feelings. I offer a safe space with compassion working towards helping men to process their emotions and feelings.
