You might look like you’re coping... high-functioning, thoughtful, maybe even successful on the outside. But inside, something doesn’t feel quite right. You second-guess yourself. You try hard to be good, perfect, liked. You feel like you have to earn your place, and the fear of getting it wrong never quite leaves. You’re exhausted, and no one sees it. Beneath it all, you suspect the real struggle might be deeper. Shame, maybe? Even if you wouldn’t use that word, you know what it’s like to feel not good enough. If that sounds familiar, we can start there.

Feeling a bit lost and not sure how to move forward? You might be uncertain about who you are, questioning your direction, or navigating a period of change. Therapy can be a helpful way to explore and overcome whatever is causing you difficulties. I am a person-centred therapist, which means I trust that you are the expert in your own life and I work alongside you to create the meaningful change that you need. Rather than working on one “problem” in isolation, I work with the whole unique person, within a space where you are welcomed and understood.

I work relationally with adults who want to explore their inner world and make sense of their experiences in a way that feels thoughtful and supportive. My approach centres on respecting your autonomy and complexity. Rather than focusing on fixing problems, we attend to what matters most to you and how you understand your life. Therapy offers time and space to pause, reflect, and better understand yourself—particularly during periods of anxiety, emotional overwhelm, relationship difficulties, or major life transitions.

I am HCPC registered Clinical Psychologist (specialising in Autism, ADHD, Children, Adults & Families). Many people I work with are trying to understand complex or long-standing difficulties. Parents may be worried about anxiety, school avoidance, emotional regulation, behavioural concerns, or possible neurodivergence (such as autism or ADHD). Adults may be questioning autism, ADHD, trauma, or patterns that have never fully made sense. They’re often looking for a space where experiences can be understood properly and where a clearer way forward can be found.

FAQ - Therapist Gender
As a man, why might I want to see a male therapist?
There are many reasons a man might wish to work with a male therapist, including a degree of shared identity, which may help client and therapist connect to each other and allow for a more free-flowing discussion of issues that can be deeply personal. Some men may feel more comfortable talking to a male therapist about relationship concerns, the pressures they feel around the roles society and family place on men, career or job challenges, self-esteem, or anger problems. For some men who have not had a male role models in their lives, a good male therapist may be especially helpful.

How can I find out about a therapist’s experience treating men?
Individuals looking for treatment should feel comfortable directly asking a therapist about their history treating men overall and the issues that arise in therapy with men. A good therapist will be happy to discuss such matters as well as their educational background, approach to treatment, and how they think they can aid a prospective client.

Can clients benefit from having a therapist of the same gender?
Therapy is not gender-specific, but some men as well as women feel more comfortable opening up about their experiences and history with therapists of a specific gender. An individual may feel that they have to explain less background information and be on the same page more quickly, particularly when discussing gender-specific challenges. That said, a good clinician can transcend most if not all gender concerns. Ultimately, the most important factor in therapy is the connection and trust the client is able to build with the practitioner.

Would a male therapist have specific training in treating men?
Generally, no. There are no certifications for treating men specifically, but there are continuing education classes that therapists may take that focus on treating men as a group. There are many therapists who focus on men and male issues in their treatment and therefore have experience and expertise in this domain.
