I work with men who desire change. Whether you have a clear picture of a better life or just a faint gut feeling that things can't continue this way, I can help. I say this as not only a trained therapist but a person with over ten years of personal development experience: there's more in you.
I have an interest in Narrative and Person Centered frameworks. I support my clients to challenge their interpretations of the past and construct narratives that empower them to take steps that are reflective of their strengths, goals, and authentic self.
I know the idea of therapy and 'getting your sh-t together' can be daunting. So let me say that you don't need to have every step figured out, just the next one. Which if you're reading this, is reaching out for a chat.

Ricky is someone who I've always been able to connect with and talk about the deeper aspects of life. He's a qualified therapist and would no doubt be a great counsellor to have!
