My name is Nick. I work with adults who may appear to be coping on the outside, but feel overwhelmed, stuck or quietly dissatisfied within. Many are navigating anxiety, burnout, relationship challenges or a period of transition — whether in their career, identity or sense of direction. I offer a calm, reflective space to understand what’s going on beneath the surface, alongside a more practical, forward-looking approach where helpful, supporting clients to move towards meaningful and sustainable change.

It may be daunting for you to consider the first steps of counselling, but my aim is to help you to feel safe enough to talk openly about things you might find difficult and to provide a non-judgmental, safe and confidential place to start your journey. I can help you to clarify your thoughts, feelings & emotions so you may be better equipped to make more conscious choices that can improve the quality of your life and well-being. Whether it's addressing issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, trauma or self-esteem, my goal is to empower clients to develop effective coping strategies and build resilience.

Hello, all are welcome. Anxiety, stress, depression and anger can creep up on us or appear quite suddenly. Sometimes life just gets too hard and we cannot cope. You may not even know why you feel the way you do, even so, talking with someone impartial can really help. I believe that mental health is no different to physical health in that systems can become unbalanced and give us problems. Support from a Counsellor can help to rebalance your mind. You may feel unsure but I encourage you to come and meet me, then see how you feel.

Many LGBTQ+ people grow up feeling different, misunderstood, unsafe, or emotionally disconnected from themselves. I work with clients exploring issues connected to shame, identity, relationships, anxiety, trauma, self worth, addiction, recovery, and the long term impact of growing up in non affirming environments. Many people come to therapy feeling emotionally exhausted, overwhelmed, stuck in painful patterns, or constantly questioning their own worth and place in the world.

I see clients (and supervisees) from all backgrounds and specialise in working with men, or women seeking to better understand difficult relationships with men. I work with many issues including stress, feeling sad, low self-esteem, loss and relationship difficulties. My clients often want to change something about themselves and need a place to feel comfortable, share their emotions and better understand their needs. Articulating emotions and needs can be a struggle at first for some and I am experienced in helping clients to open up over time. My work is with individual clients online or in person, both short and long term.

Many of my clients are adults who appear to be managing well on the outside - meeting expectations, keeping things moving - while privately feeling exhausted, disconnected, or quietly stuck. They may be experiencing anxiety, depression, or burnout, or navigating a significant life transition. Some aren't in crisis; they've simply noticed that something no longer feels right. That life has started to feel more like something to get through than something to be part of. What brings them here is a readiness to understand themselves more deeply, and to begin building a life that feels genuinely theirs.

Whether you are an adolescent, adult, sports person or busy executive there are some common themes that resonate with my clients: Finding it hard to make decisions - fear of getting it wrong and constantly worrying/Being less tolerant, irritable over things that wouldn't normally bother you/Needing to do everything perfectly and setting high unrealistic expectations resulting in procrastination/Never feeling you have done enough/A very critical internal voice - Exhausting! Most of my clients want to quieten that negative voice and find ways to achieve and live life without the gnawing anxiety and self-doubt

Maybe you've spent years feeling like you had to be someone else—constantly trying to meet the expectations of others. Whether it’s unresolved trauma, attachment wounds, or the weight of anxiety and depression, it can leave you feeling disconnected from your true self. You might find yourself stuck in people-pleasing, overworking, masking, or repressing your emotions. Coping can turn into unhealthy patterns like self-harming, developing addictions, OCD, or eating disorders. Together, we can unravel those patterns, understand how your past is shaping your present, and help you develop what you need to feel good in your own skin.
