My background includes roles within the NHS, National Crime Agency, Combat Stress (Britain's leading military mental health charity), and private practice.
There are many reasons why individuals choose to access therapy and it can be a daunting, sometimes painful, step. Please be assured that, with over a decade of experience, I offer an even-handed yet supportive approach in a safe, confidential setting. If you are feeling disconnected from yourself and those around you, are struggling to manage feelings of anxiety, are managing your distress through strategies such as alcohol, illegal substances, or self-harming behaviours, have experienced a trauma, or witnessed a traumatic event, I can help.

Hello and welcome. Life can be difficult at times. Many are struggling with mental health in ways that are no longer manageable. Our past and present hurts, our unprocessed feelings can leave us thinking, feeling and acting in ways that don’t reflect who we want to be. You may be struggling with Grief, Trauma or Addiction, seeking understanding with Neurodiversity, or difficult relationship patterns. As a Senior Accredited Psychotherapist with a PhD(Hon), MA and being EMDR(accredited), I have supported thousands of people through a wide range of issues, helping them find genuine healing, meaningful change and hope for the future.

My name is David, and I offer outcome-focused therapy for complex challenges such as depression, anxiety, addiction, and relationship difficulties, whether these arise at home or at work. I believe lasting change comes from understanding where difficulties originated and how they continue to shape your life today. Our work may involve exploring past experiences and the emotions linked to them in a compassionate, empathic, and non-judgmental way. This helps uncover how earlier experiences inform how you think, feel, and respond in the present, creating the conditions for meaningful, lasting, and sustainable change over time.

You may be struggling with anxiety, low mood, overthinking, low self-esteem or difficult experiences from your past that continue to affect you today. Perhaps you understand some of the reasons you feel this way, but knowing why hasn't been enough to change it. You might feel overwhelmed, disconnected, constantly on edge, or caught in patterns of thinking, relationships or behaviour that you can't seem to shift. You don't need to have everything figured out before coming to therapy. We can start with what is happening for you now, understand what may be driving it, and work together towards meaningful and lasting change.

If you are suffering from symptoms related to PTSD or complex PTSD, EMDR therapy can help to alleviate your symptoms. Clients working with me using EMDR have found that their symptoms such as flashbacks and/or being unable to go to certain places can be alleviated or reduced to the point where they are manageable. This work is supported with self help techniques to manage new anxieties as and when they may present themselves, but from a new and more adaptive perspective. I also offer the Safe and Sound Protocol alongside therapy sessions for those clients who wish to work in a polyvagal informed way.

Many are thoughtful, reflective and used to holding things together externally, while privately feeling tense, stuck, burnt out, emotionally shut down, or caught in patterns they understand clearly but cannot seem to change.
