I offer an affirming and collaborative space for individuals, couples, polycules and families of all genders, sexualities, backgrounds, ages, abilities, and neurotypes. Whether you are coming to therapy to make a change, make sense of yourself or past experiences, or simply want someone to listen to you, I provide a safe and non-judgemental space for you to explore your life, relationships and concerns. Together, we can identify repetitive, often painful patterns and how they might be understood, changed, or let go. I am a gay man with particular expertise working with LGBT+ clients and a GSRD approach to my work.
My roots in Relational TA combine Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and psychodynamic therapy, which can be used to understand and change unhelpful patterns of thinking. This means I can help you make better sense of your experiences, thoughts and feelings. Together we can discover meanings, recognise patterns, and explore your options.
I believe the most important aspect of successful therapy is the quality of the relationship between us. In practice, this means I foster a more equal relationship between us, so if there’s something you’re not happy with or disagree with, you can tell me and explore it. I therefore invite you to come as you are so we can talk comfortably.
