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.

Years in practice: 10

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!”

Years in practice: 25+
Offers:  Remote Therapy

I’m a Registered psychotherapist with the UKCP and have run my private practice full time for over 20 years. I am a Relational Psychotherapist so I work alongside my clients to explore issues that affect how they feel in their current lives and relationships as well as exploring the origins of these issues which sometimes stem from traumatic events in our developmental years. My goal is to help clients clarify what they want from life, explore what is holding them back and move through to deep and lasting change. I work with a wide range of presenting issues. Over the last 10 years I have worked with professional sportsmen and women and supported them through a range of issues which they encounter in their high profile, pressurised, daily lives.

As a man I appreciate how difficult it can be to speak about how we feel and I also know the benefits of taking this risk having had my own counselling and psychotherapy for many years.

I am a chartered Counselling Psychologist and EMDR therapist, registered with HCPC and accredited by the British Psychological Society. In my therapeutic practice I work predominantly with issues around relationships, intimacy, anxiety, depression, loneliness and isolation, self-esteem, body image and eating disorders, gender identity, and a more general unease around existence.

My therapeutic approach is existentially/phenomenologically based, meaning that in therapy, we will focus on your unique, personal experience and how you have come to find yourself where you are, and then examine the possibility that you are in a constant process of becoming, ever-changing, but always in relation.
