Feeling anxious, low, or weighed down by the past? Are you stuck between who you are and who you think you should be? It doesn’t have to stay this way. Often the most meaningful change happens when you feel safe enough to be yourself. That’s why I provide a space to slow down and figure things out without judgement or pressure. Together, we’ll explore what’s on your mind in whatever way feels right for you, whenever you feel ready. Over time, this can lead to greater self-awareness and more compassionate ways of relating to yourself, so life begins to feel lighter, steadier, and easier to navigate.

I am passionate about working with parents and carers who want to understand the needs of their child, particularly where they might have concerns about their child's development e.g. learning or social skills. Many parents that I work with find that their child is struggling to regulate emotions, which can be shown through behavioural distress. This can have a significant impact on families, and parents may be unsure how to adapt their response. Often, parents have tried the approaches that they are familiar with, which might have worked for siblings, but don't seem to have the same effect for their child with additional needs.

Are you feeling low, empty, worried or sad, and searching for confidential support? You may be struggling within your relationships, finding it challenging to manage a new situation, or grieving the loss of an important person in your life.

Hi there and welcome to my profile, I know how difficult the process of finding a right therapist can be, I'll keep things brief. Do you find yourself constantly masking and adapting to others or putting their needs ahead of your own to feel accepted? Do you find it difficult to speak up about what you may want from or how to feel confident in relationships? Do you may feel stuck between wanting connection and fearing rejection?
If so, you are not alone, I find that when people may report feeling unseen, misunderstood, there may be feelings of awkwardness and disconnection with others and you may struggle to ask for what you want.

Working on-line primarily, with some limited face to face availability currently, I provide a warm, accepting environment. An authentic, confidential and secure atmosphere for therapy allows the opportunity to explore, understand and work towards your therapeutic goals, with the passion and humour I bring. Dealing with the "difficult stuff" is something we are all capable of avoiding. It needs to feel safe enough to talk about what can feel most vulnerable and hardest to put into words. My role is to create the atmosphere where there's trust in; not being judged, found too much or not enough, being heard and valued.

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.
