I work with a vast array of people. I’ve helped people to deal with relationships breaking down, the abuse they’ve suffered in the past, existential issues about the future, dealing with anger, processing grief, understanding sexuality, understanding emotions, dealing with depression as well as understanding their anxiety. I’m trained as an integrative counsellor and this means that I can adjust my approach to suit each person that I work with.

I understand that it can be tricky talking about challenging personal issues, which is why I warmly invite you to contact me if you feel you would like some professional support. I am a person-centred counsellor, working in a relational way, meaning that through developing a trusting working relationship, your goals for therapy, and for life, can be realistically achieved.
I can offer face-to-face or online therapy, and either way, I feel that my approachable, friendly and professional manner makes therapy a successful and meaningful experience. I have worked with wide-ranging issues such as anxiety and depression to trauma, identity, conflict and more. Please make contact if you would like a free 30-minute consultation to see if you feel you would like to work with me.

I work intensively with men who have difficulties in their relation to themselves and to others, particularly those whose early life experiences have had an impact on their development, feelings, and functioning. I work with men who have suffered complex trauma and abuse and can help with the consequences of those experiences. I can help those with addictions and/or destructive relationships and/or behaviour. I have significant experience of working with men in conflict with their gender or sexuality.

I was once told ‘this too will pass’ and I have found the difficulties in my own life have done so. However I could not do it alone, as it felt too tough a journey to be on. Looking back today, I am glad I had a counsellor to listen to me and support me throughout my journey. You may feel as I did overloaded, confused and questioning why? As your counsellor I will to listen to you with empathy and compassion, help you see your strengths and show you kindness as you work through your challenges. With my support, over time your difficulties will too will pass and you will be able to lead the life you want. I believe counselling gives us the space to get to know the real self. My aim is to help you get your life back on track.

My approach is warm and thoughtful, placing my clients at ease in opening up sometimes for the first time about their personal feelings and experineces. I predominately offer a psychodynamic approach which is particularly beneficial for those who have lost meaning in their lives or have difficulty forming or maintaining personal relationships. My approach is based on the understanding that difficult experiences in the past can continue to affect the way you feel in the present. In the therapeutic relationship, we can start to explore and recognise the reasons why the things that make you unhappy seem to be repeating themselves.

I believe therapy can be truly transformative, offering a space to explore past experiences and how they shape our present. This belief comes from my work as both a therapist and a client. I work collaboratively with my clients to create a safe, empowering environment where they can make more productive meaning about their world and relationships.
My approach is grounded in empathy, curiosity, and acceptance, but when appropriate I also offer constructive challenge. I meet each person where they are, encouraging deeper reflection and new perspectives.
Much of my experience involves supporting individuals with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, family dynamics, autism, trauma, and issues related to sex, gender, and sexuality.

Hello, I am an integrative therapist, working with a variety of men’s issues; anything from anger management through depression and anxiety, to self-esteem and childhood issues. It can be hard for us chaps to reach out sometimes, and understanding that, I work with patience and compassion to draw the issues from you at your own working pace.
Therapy can be an exciting and rewarding process. It can also be hard, and challenging. I am here to help you to become the best version of yourself.

I am a Gestalt Counsellor (regsitered with BACP) and started seeing clients in 2013. This was through placements at Hampshire charities No Limits (young people) and Cruse (bereavement). From 2017 to 2019 I set up and ran a counselling service with London charity Positive21 (HIV). I am co-author of “Strength to Talk” which is dedicated to men’s mental health with all proceeds going to the charity Mind.
Anyone interested in counselling can have a free consultation session (30mins) to ask any questions and check that we could make progress.
After that I work online via “Psychology Today Sessions” (encrypted video service) each session lasts 50 minutes.
The model I use is Gestalt/Humanistic theory.

I work in a Person-Centred approach, which means offering and holding a space of understanding, acceptance and authenticity, that is ultimately led by you. It’s an approach that I feel attuned to due to its philosophy, its attempts to address power and how it can facilitate people in their process and journey of change, whatever that may be. I am interested in concepts of masculinity and the complex feelings of mixed heritage being born into a family with a background of different nationalities.
