I am a Clinical Psychologist with a passion for compassion! I see clients both face to face and online. I read my first degree at Cambridge University, followed by a doctorate in Clinical Psychology at the Institute of Psychology, Psychiatry and Neuropsychology in London. Initially trained in CBT, I have since moved over to compassion focused therapy developed by Professor Paul Gilbert. I find it is useful for most clients, with a 90% success rate. With CFT, I can teach you how to balance your mind for the rest of your life.

As far as anyone can see, you’re holding it all together, but deep down, you’re struggling to manage the emotional aftermath of losing someone or something important in your life—a relationship, a job, or a loved one. You feel worried about the future and a deep sadness that life seems to carry on as if nothing has changed. The loneliness, exhaustion, and pain of dealing with these feelings alone are overwhelming. You wish to open up about how you’re truly feeling without fear of burdening others or causing concern for those close to you. You need a safe space to process, heal, and find the strength to adjust to your new reality.

Do you feel something needs to change? CBT can be very effective for common mental health problems. You may be struggling with low self-esteem, anxiety or low mood. These challenges can prevent you from living the life you desire. CBT is a collaborative and evidence-based approach that helps you understand your current challenges and equips you with practical skills to independently manage these issues and achieve your goals.
I provide virtual sessions, offering a warm, non-judgmental space for you to begin your journey towards better self-awareness and change.

Hi, I'm Kevyn.
Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone. I offer a warm, affirming space where you can explore whatever’s on your mind—whether it’s identity, relationships, trauma, anxiety, or simply feeling stuck. I have experience working with LGBTQ+ individuals, gender identity, trans experiences, polyamory, non-monogamy, kink, grief, self-confidence, and more.
Finding the right counsellor matters, so I offer a free 30-minute phone or video call. Let’s connect and see if we’re a good fit.

I specialise in anxiety, depression, relationship issues, cultural issues, work-related stress, and living with illness. We all face times when we feel confused, stuck or unsure about what to do. During these difficult or uncertain times talking to someone who listens, yet has distance from the issue, can really help. Asking for support is not a sign of weakness. It takes courage to focus on ourselves so that we can find solutions, make changes, and move forwards. I offer compassionate, non-judgmental, confidential yet proactive therapy in a safe and supportive space. I work in the evenings and weekends.

In an ideal world, everyone should have someone, they can talk to. But the world isn't ideal and talking to someone you know may be difficult, or even problematic. So I can help. There’s a Chinese proverb that I like - ‘reading ten thousand scrolls, rather walk ten thousand miles.’ When we search for answers, our first point is the internet or books but what we can’t grasp from written literature, is the life experiences of interactions and 'light bulb' moments. My journeys have covered more than ten thousand miles. I have encountered and experienced many difficulties myself and I want to help you to overcome yours and feel better.

Do you find it hard to feel "good enough"? It’s uncomfortable to say no or ask for what you need. Difficult experiences of the past has meant you have ongoing relationship problems. You’ve been feeling exhausted at trying to break unhealthy patterns but it’s been challenging to make any lasting change. You’ve read the books, listened to the podcasts, but you still feel stuck. Maybe you’ve tried therapy before but it only seemed to scratch the surface. You’re wondering if it’s really possible to change, and the truth is, it really is. You just need the right tools and support - and that’s where I can help.

You thought that becoming a parent would be exciting, but you've also felt overwhelmed, anxious and like you’re struggling to cope. There's been an expectation that you'd be happy and even ‘glowing’ but the reality has often felt very different. It has left you wondering if you’re failing or 'not doing it right' which can make it hard to say you're not OK or ask for help. If this feels like you, please know that you are not alone and that these thoughts and feelings are very common, even if they’re not often talked about.
