You might look like you’re coping on the outside—but inside, it feels different.
Part of you pushes to stay in control, fix things, and keep it all together… while another part feels overwhelmed, anxious, or exhausted.
You may notice the same patterns repeating—overthinking, emotional reactions, or relationship tension—and no matter how hard you try, they don’t shift. There may also be older experiences or unresolved pain shaping how you feel and respond.
What you’re looking for is a sense of calm, clarity, and understanding—along with support to make sense of what’s happening inside and feel more grounded and at ease.

Welcome to You are Here Therapy.
Some people call it trauma. Others call it a difficult experience or a painful chapter they can't seem to move past. Whatever you call it, its effects can linger, shaping how you see yourself, relate to others, and navigate life.
Sometimes it's a current stressor that feels overwhelming. Sometimes it's the past showing up in the present. I support adults of all backgrounds and genders, with a particular affinity for working with gay men.
Together, we'll make sense of your story, build resilience, and create meaningful change. Your past may shape your story, but it doesn't have to write your future.

Put simply, I help men who feel stuck, unheard, hopeless or lost. I help men who are looking for a way to feel better, faster. That’s what counselling does.
Life throws a lot at us: change, loss, grief, pressure, stress. We often work our whole lives, only to feel it all falling apart.
Sometimes that presents itself as anxiety, the black cloud of depression, or coping mechanisms that can lead to addiction. We try to find ways to reduce the pain; but it just gets worse. It can feel hopeless.
But there is hope; counselling can make you feel better, within weeks or even sometimes days - not years.

Reaching out often comes at a point where you want to be heard without judgement, to make sense of what has happened, and to find a way forward with steadiness and clarity.

What matters to me, each and every day is and what I value the most about my work as a therapist is hospitality; being welcomed, attended to, supported, and encouraged.
My approach is eclectic and about as far from CBT as you can get. From learning the art of listening at Lifeline, I was drawn to Gestalt therapy, for its dynamic and active approach to therapy. Gestalt therapy is interested in the polarities we experience, how do we support ourselves and find agency in day to day life.
I am interested in and work with issues such as grief and loss, change, ageing, forgiveness and what does it mean to live a full life that allows

Is therapy for men different than it is for women?
Therapeutic treatments and types are the same for men as they are for women, with the same protocols followed and the same strategies employed. Discussing one’s feelings and emotions is an integral part of most therapies, and some men find doing so more challenging. Therapists can help clients through the process; some specialize in treating men for this reason.
How do you encourage a man to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual’s behavior affected either himself or others should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can men prepare for therapy?
Men can prepare for therapy by approaching the process with an open mind, being willing to talk about their challenges, and giving treatment the time to work. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. It can be useful for men who struggle to recall their emotional states to write down notes between sessions about their response to a given event or how they were feeling at a particular time.
What should men know about the process of therapy?
One of the most common reasons men don’t seek therapy is the notion that there’s something wrong with them if they do. Men should know that just because they’re seeking therapy doesn’t mean they’re mentally ill or damaged in some way. In the same way people work on their bodies through exercise or a craft through practice, therapy can be a way to improve the mental and emotional skills needed to be productive and effective partners, employees, and people in all realms of life.
