Are you feeling overwhelmed by life? Do you crave the opportunity to sit in a safe space with someone who understands? I am a caring, compassionate, non-judgemental counsellor ready to provide you with that confidential cocoon of support. I am a Covid-safe and climate-aware counsellor, and understand that some sections of society will try to pathologise your fears and concerns. I will take your concerns seriously.
You are the expert in your own life, and I will never challenge that expertise. With that principle as a starting point, I will bring my expertise in collaborating with you to find a way forward. I am a registered counsellor with expertise in climate distress, depression and anxiety, finding life's meaning, anger management, and hoarding.
As an older counsellor, I have experienced many of life's challenges personally. This experience informs my non-judgemental and compassionate approach, and my age gives me a perspective on the stages of life that we all pass through. My experience tells me that men often have difficulty connecting with others and expressing their emotions.

My foundation is to begin in a person-centred way to get to really know you and your situation. I combine solution-focussed and narrative methods with more traditional approaches to best match your needs. You are at the centre, and I consider you to be the expert on your life. If issues of meaning arise, I tend towards an existential approach.
