We all make sense of ourselves and our experiences in different ways. Some of those ways are life-giving and helpful. Others are not. I am interested in accompanying people as they look at their ways of understanding their experience more carefully. Much of my work has taken place in spaces where people's experiences have been reduced, forced into explanations that don't quite fit, and consequently misunderstood.

‘You are the Greatest Project You Will Ever Work On’ As a humanistic integrative counsellor I offer a safe, empathic, non-judgemental space for you to explore the challenges life presents you with. The therapeutic relationship I can provide you is a confidential space where you can speak openly and honestly, free from fear of judgement or concern about the impact on others, something that often feels different from talking with friends or family. Counselling is not about telling you what to do, but about helping you connect with your own understanding, strengths, and inner resources.

Do you often feel broken? Or feel like you're never enough? These common thoughts often cross many of our minds, yet some of us are unable to shake it off. Some may feel it’s all they have ever lived with, this sense of not being enough for those around us. Having poor confidence and low self-esteem can be debilitating to live with. Daily life can become crippled with anxiety. You may find you always talk down or minimise yourself and struggle take pride in anything you do. As a qualified therapist with 9 years experience in CBT, I take great pride in my job and believe it is a privilege to be able to help and support others.

But failed because self doubt, guilt, anger, shame, procrastination or fear has kept you psychologically paralysed? How many times have you told yourself that you are going to stop your self destructive behaviour, only to find yourself embroiled in the same self defeating habits the next day, week or month? Do you see yourself ebbing further and further away from your life goals, dreams and ambitions?

Do you ever feel caught in endless loops of overthinking or intrusive thoughts that feel too intense to ignore? Maybe you replay conversations, double-check decisions, or search for certainty that never comes. OCD can make you question everything, convincing you your thoughts say something terrible about you. It’s exhausting, leaving you stuck in your head instead of your life. I offer a calm, non-judgmental space to help you quiet anxiety, loosen OCD’s grip, and move toward what matters. I’ve also contributed to a BBC Sounds podcast on ADHD.

If you are seeking counselling and psychotherapy, it may be because you are dealing with a specific issue or going through a particularly difficult phase for which you need support. You may have tried to resolve things by yourself but somehow, it didn’t quite work out. You may have found yourself in the all-too-familiar place of slipping back to your old patterns of thoughts, feeling and behaviors despite all the promises and repeated attempts at changing them. Or you may feel that we are doing OK, presenting to the world a well-functioning mask of personal efficiency or professional success, but deep feeling empty and alone.

There are many reasons that bring people to therapy and the hard part is trying to find the right therapist for you. There are so many of us and some of the terms we use might be even more confusing and weird sounding. It doesn't have to be like that though. As a fully qualified and registered psychotherapist i see therapy as an opportunity to talk about whatever is troubling you in total confidence. As your therapist i won't be telling you what to do, however we will explore the conflicts and dilemmas you have and really look at what it means to "BE" you and have a greater understanding of your unique way of being in the world.

Men's Issues Counsellors
Is therapy for men different than it is for women?
Therapeutic treatments and types are the same for men as they are for women, with the same protocols followed and the same strategies employed. Discussing one’s feelings and emotions is an integral part of most therapies, and some men find doing so more challenging. Therapists can help clients through the process; some specialize in treating men for this reason.

How do you encourage a man to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual’s behavior affected either himself or others should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.

How can men prepare for therapy?
Men can prepare for therapy by approaching the process with an open mind, being willing to talk about their challenges, and giving treatment the time to work. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. It can be useful for men who struggle to recall their emotional states to write down notes between sessions about their response to a given event or how they were feeling at a particular time.

What should men know about the process of therapy?
One of the most common reasons men don’t seek therapy is the notion that there’s something wrong with them if they do. Men should know that just because they’re seeking therapy doesn’t mean they’re mentally ill or damaged in some way. In the same way people work on their bodies through exercise or a craft through practice, therapy can be a way to improve the mental and emotional skills needed to be productive and effective partners, employees, and people in all realms of life.
