Is something blocking you in your personal or professional life? Perhaps you know that there are some specific issues you need to work through or that something just doesn’t seem quite right? Hi, my name is Richard. I help people understand themselves, express themselves, and feel better in themselves. The work can be emotionally deep so I like to keep things lighthearted and informal.

Do you ever wonder why, despite everything going well in your life (e.g. you're in a good relationship, a successful job), something feels off? I specialise in helping people with anxiety who are highly self-critical. Often, my clients describe themselves as intellectualisers, perfectionists and/or people pleasers. You struggle to let go of control, to sit with your feelings, and set boundaries with people, but no one else would know because all your energy goes towards doing everything right. This happens when we learned to avoid our emotions like the plague, and before you know it, your life is all about doing and achieving.

Seeking therapy is a sign of courage in the depths of conflict. Currently, you may be troubled or overwhelmed, not knowing what is happening either within you, your partner or communicatively between your couple. To be understood and appreciated while conveying the same qualities to another person is an essential component of any satisfying relationship, but it is one that takes an emotional commitment from those involved in finding a resolution. The question I often ask my clients is, "Can you bear the difference of the other, or even tolerate the possibility that they may have a different perspective to the one in your mind?"

Do you find yourself striving to feel confident, but never quite feeling good enough? On the outside, it might look like you’ve got everything together, but inside you’re overthinking, second-guessing yourself, and wondering why you still don’t feel good enough. You might be exhausted from people-pleasing, seeking reassurance, or holding yourself to impossibly high standards. If your mind is constantly questioning you or putting you down, it can feel hard to switch it off, no matter how well things are going on paper.

I have always been fascinated by the complexity of human beings, their darkness and their lights. I consider the therapeutic room not only as a space for self-reflection and exploration of what feels difficult to process on your own, but also a place to speak the unspeakable. Therapy can provide an opportunity to challenge behaviours that may appear unchangeable or automatic. As a practitioner I am interested in the integration of cultural and gender studies and have experience working with depression, isolation, sexual identity, existential difficulties, relational dilemmas and bereavement.

Many of my clients are often dealing with anxiety, burnout, ADHD, or struggling with systemic and generational trauma that's left them feeling stuck in a loop. They feel like they're constantly "masking", tired from feeling misunderstood or having to explain their identity, experiences and the way their brain works to feel heard. I predominantly work with LGBTQIA+, neurodivergent and culturally diverse individuals, as well as men navigating identity, mental health and modern masculinity.
