We all face moments in life which can be challenging, where we can find ourselves feeling out of control, struggling to cope and in emotional pain. At the heart of my practice, I prioritise building a warm, trusting and non-judgemental relationship as a strong foundation for you to feel safe to explore in-depth your most difficult thoughts, feelings and experiences. Working together, I believe therapy can help increase your self-awareness, which can bring about new possibilities and real change in your life. Therapy can also help you develop healthier strategies to cope with new challenges and past experiences.

Counselling and psychotherapy are recognised as effective ways of helping you to explore your issues in a safe, non-judgemental and confidential environment. By focusing on significant life events both past and present, feelings, emotions, ways of thinking and patterns of behaviour, I will help you to examine your difficulties in depth and identify the best course of action for you, either to help you resolve your problems or find ways of coping.

I specialise in working with neurodivergent adults — particularly women who have spent years feeling out of step with the world, exhausted by the effort of appearing fine. Diagnosed in my fifties, I bring genuine lived experience alongside over twenty years of clinical depth. I understand what it means to mask, to overachieve, and to struggle in ways that are invisible to others. That knowledge doesn't replace clinical training — it deepens it. I offer individual therapy and couples counselling that is unhurried, thoughtful, and tailored entirely to you.

The loss avoidance game becomes a finite cycle, where the pursuit of pleasure "always" wins. Progress means change, rehearsing new ways of thinking or a range of strategies to iterate development safely. The result: a genuine approach for you to find a better way forward. My goal is to enable a strong mental foundation where mindful skills will help you keep life within reach. I am HCPC-registered in clinical, counselling, health, and occupational psychology. Supervisor, providing services beginning from eclectic CBT interventions (ACT, DBT, or ST), the most effective and intuitive psychological framework.

Sometimes our thoughts can be particularly overwhelming, and by exploring them together through therapy it can bring you change. It can ‘free you up’ to move forward with your life. As an experienced psychodynamic therapist, I freely share that my own therapy helped shift some truly difficult obstacles and abuse I suffered, to bring healing and purpose to my life today. Therapy helped me better understand myself, my relationships, my feelings, and confront my fears. I believe change is a choice for us all which only a lucky few seek out and embrace. I genuinely look forward to helping you 'embrace' the change possible in your life.

Hi I'm Daniel (He/Him). I'm a counsellor who provides support for people that are struggling with feelings of depression, anxiety and grief. I work with people seeking support with difficult life decisions and challenges in their relationships. Often people attend because they are feeling 'stuck'; finding themselves arriving at the same place, despite trying really hard to change. Perhaps they are drinking, shopping or eating to cope or escape. The sex and relationships they're having has stopped feeling safe or fulfilling. They're doing things to 'feel better' while avoiding people, places or decisions due to fear or shame.
