I am a queer and non-binary counsellor that uses narrative practices, acknowledging the person I work with (of any age) as the expert on, and of, their own life. In working alongside people, I also focus on intersectionality taking a systems approach. This approach sees the problem as the problem; that our experiences of trauma and heartbreak result from a world that lacks the resources (knowledges and more) to dignify and link lives in just ways.

Dear clients until further notice my practice at Breathing space is closed. David is an Accredited Mental Health Social Worker and Psychotherapist with 38 years counselling experience, with children, adults, couples and families. He believes that recovery from trauma restores a sense of dignity and justice and allows for more control over one’s life. This occurs when traumatic experiences can be transformed by a deeper understanding of the specific trauma and its consequential impacts on the body, when people are able to better manage this impacts the mind can often heal itself.
