You may wish to seek psychotherapy at times of struggle, feeling sad or stuck, or having adverse experiences that you carry from your past. You may also want to gain more insight into yourself, your behaviours, your feelings and your relationships. People can experience difficulties in life, causing unhappiness at home, at work and in relationships. Often these difficulties are caused by past experiences or relationships the person is not consciously aware of. Once unconscious processes and well-established behavioural patterns are brought to the fore, it is easier for people to overcome their difficulties.

I have experience working with individuals across a range of presentations such as low mood and depression, anxiety and OCD, gender identity, attachment issues, bereavement, phobias, emotional regulation difficulties , autism/ neurodiversity, ADHD, and difficulties with interpersonal relationships.I believe that unprocessed experiences impact on our well-being. Thus, constructive change requires an understanding of how unresolved issues interact with present 'difficulties' which in turn influence our future direction. I am lecturer in Higher Education with NHS experience.I charge £90/session & £120/session for AVIVA clients.

Through our lives, we may have experiences and feelings that are difficult to make sense of and which would benefit from talking about with someone outside of our day-to-day life. Talking to a counsellor can feel like a daunting prospect, but in taking that next step you can give yourself the time, support and guidance you need to explore and understand the roots of these feelings and enable yourself to find new ways of relating that are fulfilling and enriching.

I work with people who are stuck and want to get moving again in some area of their lives. They can be stuck for many reasons, but commonly this is anxiety, depression or life events, including the death of someone close, the loss of a job or illness, to name a few. To address these challenges, I offer a space and time to explore what is bothering you, what the best thing to focus on right now is, and how we can work together to get things moving again.

Therapy is a process where clients come to think and talk about their lives so that they develop greater insight and understanding of themselves.

How long would you like to be in the dark, telling me how dark it is? When shall we look for the light? Each of us is born with a powerful set of tools which we use to seek out and satisfy our needs for emotional nourishment. If those needs are being met in healthy, balanced and sustainable ways it is very much easier to maintain good emotional health. However, if that guidance system is not properly programmed, or if it has been damaged in some way, perhaps through trauma or poor skills development, it will be difficult to build a firm foundation for emotional well-being. Really good therapy will address those issues, quickly.

I aim to provide a warm, supportive and non-judgemental space for my clients to talk through challenging issues in their lives. This sounds simple, but is surprisingly powerful. I specialise in working with depression, anxiety, sexual issues and relationships (both romantic or otherwise). I have extensive experience working with people whose lives are in some way ‘alternative’ – in their sexuality or relationship practices, neurodiversity, use of psychoactive drugs, or general lifestyle. I have a particular interest in working with psychedelic experiences or otherwise altered states of consciousness.

You might be feeling stuck or wondering whether you've made the right decision. You might not even know what the right decision is. You might even want to explore who it is that you are, why you do the things that you do, or why you're in the situation that you're in. If that is you, then consider what it is that counselling and psychotherapy might be able to do in helping you to consider all these questions that you might have about yourself and your situation.

Male Counsellors
As a man, why might I want to see a male therapist?
There are many reasons a man might wish to work with a male therapist, including a degree of shared identity, which may help client and therapist connect to each other and allow for a more free-flowing discussion of issues that can be deeply personal. Some men may feel more comfortable talking to a male therapist about relationship concerns, the pressures they feel around the roles society and family place on men, career or job challenges, self-esteem, or anger problems. For some men who have not had a male role models in their lives, a good male therapist may be especially helpful.
How can I find out about a therapist’s experience treating men?
Individuals looking for treatment should feel comfortable directly asking a therapist about their history treating men overall and the issues that arise in therapy with men. A good therapist will be happy to discuss such matters as well as their educational background, approach to treatment, and how they think they can aid a prospective client. Prospective clients should also ask what the expectation is for treatment, and what the fee structure is, and whether and which insurance plans are accepted.
Can clients benefit from having a therapist of the same gender?
Therapy is not gender-specific, but some men as well as women feel more comfortable opening up about their experiences and history with a male therapist. An individual may feel that they have to explain less background information and be on the same page more quickly, particularly when discussing gender-specific challenges, in the case of male clients. Some women have prior negative experiences with women that predispose them to prefer working with a male in therapy. That said, a good clinician can transcend most if not all gender concerns. Ultimately, the most important factor in therapy is the connection and trust the client is able to build with the practitioner.
Would a male therapist have specific training in treating men?
Generally, no. There are no certifications for treating men specifically, but there are continuing education classes that therapists may take that focus on treating men as a group. There are many therapists who focus on men and male issues in their treatment and therefore have experience and expertise in this domain.
