Many of the clients I work with are high-functioning, anxious, and self-critical — people who can’t switch off no matter how hard they try. I’m here to help you find steadier ground, where rest feels safe and you can finally exhale. If this sounds familiar, you might recognise yourself in what follows. There’s always something to fix, control, or get right. You’re terrified of getting something wrong. “Feedback” feels like failure. You replay conversations, rewrite emails, and double-check locks and feelings alike.
 You can’t remember the last time you could just be. You don't know how to stop
People like you, come and see me. I will help you move from control to calm, from striving to self-trust. I put you, not the method, first, meaning you get a tailored approach. As a BACP registered psychotherapist and counsellor, my work is about helping you loosen your grip so you can feel steady, grounded, and at ease in your own skin.
You've been white-knuckling life for long enough. It doesn’t have to stay this way. Together, we can quiet the noise, soften the inner critic, and build a steadier rhythm that feels more human. You don’t have to earn your rest or prove your worth — you just have to start. Curious to explore how things can improve? Let’s chat.

These are the main issues I can help with: overthinking, perfectionism, anxiety, guilt, and feeling never enough. We'll trace the loop that keeps you stuck—fixing, doubting, pushing—and learn how to loosen it. You'll leave with calmer thoughts, steadier confidence, and a way of living that doesn't feel like constant self-correction.

Highly recommend Chris - he's sensitive, attentive and skilled. He brings a wealth of knowledge and experience, but, just as importantly, is kind, compassionate, and truly present. When we trained together, I often witnessed his empathy, care, and warmth.

I use integrative therapy — person-centred, psychodynamic, and existential approaches. This isn't about you fitting a method; the method fits you. Some sessions explore patterns, others build tools, or simply offer space to be heard. It's warm, honest, and supportive — you leave feeling clearer, not more confused.
