I can help people who are experiencing all levels of distress and unhappiness. You may have feelings of dissatisfaction and a sense that you are not getting all that you want in your life. At the other end of the spectrum you may be finding that every day is a real struggle with strong, even overwhelming, feelings of depression, anxiety, stress, anger etc. I believe that all of us want to strive to feel happier and more fulfilled than we currently are. We want to feel a connection with other people and to have a sense that we are leading meaningful, enjoyable lives - even when at times we feel at a loss as to how to achieve this.

Edd Howard
Psychologist, HCPC - Clin. Psych.

I work with men who experience intrusive anxious thoughts that can sometimes set them into a spiral or down a rabbit hole of overthinking. These thoughts can come out of nowhere, feel hard to switch off and and take you away from things that are important to you, like feeling present with your family, friends or partner. Most of the men I support are high-functioning but exhausted. They're managing pressures with work, responsibilities at home and a mind that won't slow down. This can be tough. I help men steady their thoughts and build practical tools to feel calmer and more in control.
