Specialising in Men's mental health. I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I work with all adults and young people who come to me with a diverse range of presenting issues, with a particular emphasis on addressing issues such as anxiety, depression, and relationship issues. My belief rests on the notion that every person possesses an innate drive to achieve their utmost potential, to grow, and to become the finest version of themselves. This belief serves as a guiding principle as I strive to create a confidential, supportive, empathic, and non-judgemental environment.

My clients often tell me, that they feel exhausted because they have been carrying around a problem for a long time. If that sounds like you, then I'm here to tell you it's OK. Let me share the load, and help you put it down and unpack it. I can offer you a warm, friendly space to carefully explore what you're carrying. It might be you are struggling with a relationship, a loss, anxiety, anger, lack of confidence or sense of identity. Or maybe you're not even sure what it is. As both a teacher and counsellor, I have supported adults and young people with many of life's issues. You can bring anything to me no matter how big or small.

Sometimes life and the problems that arise can seem confusing even overwhelming. Some problems are based very much in the present but often I work with clients to see how their past impacts their life today and with this new awareness we work together to make the changes needed to move forwards. By bringing the unconscious into the conscious we can explore what outdated belief systems and adaptations you may be dragging around with you from childhood. These adaptations may have protected you as a child but as an adult often no longer serve a purpose and can even be detrimental to your relationships. Is it time to make some changes?

A loss can take many forms, job loss, bereavement, divorce, death of a pet, the end of a significant relationship or loss of direction in life for example. My aim is to help you navigate through those difficult times and to help you reconnect with yourself.

Does it feel as though your feelings are too overwhelming at times? The preoccupation of fearing the worse, feeling not good enough and doubting yourself is tiring to carry around and becoming more difficult to mask. The uncertainty of how to change things adds to the frustration and muddle you are feeling. I understand talking about yourself can be difficult because of a fear of being judged or you may not know where to begin. I will do my best to put you at ease as finding the right counsellor is really important to be able to talk about how you feel, gain new insights, understand your behaviours and build self confidence.

The most important thing first: No matter what place you’re in - there is hope for change and for things to get better. You may be reading this feeling vulnerable, disempowered, dejected, fearing disappointment or simply too overwhelmed to know how you feel. I'll meet you wherever you are and with whatever you bring and we can walk through your confusion and distress together. I've had the privilege of working with a diverse range of people with an equally diverse range of individual challenges. Spending time exploring your challenges can bring clarity, empower you to break with old patterns and help you find a positive way forward.

Are you distrustful, fearful and overwhelmed by your own emotions and sensations? Do you wish you could eliminate them? Issues arising from trauma or early attachment may manifest in a number of ways including painful thoughts and memories, anxiety, depression, rage, physical pain and sensations (including unexplained physical symptoms, CFS, fibromyalgia and low energy). By viewing our thoughts, sensations, feelings and behaviours not as symptoms, but as 'parts' of us which are attempting to cope with life, we can learn about, and work with them in a compassionate and non-pathologising way.

Do you feel stuck, anxious or overwhelmed? Perhaps worry, lack of confidence or low self esteem is having a negative effect on your life, causing you to feel isolated and alone. Talking to loved one about what we are experiencing can feel difficult, we worry that we are putting to much on them or we don't want them to worry about us. Talking to a counsellor can be really helpful at these times and can show a way forward. However I understand that a good counselling relationship is vital to support you in moving toward your goals.
