Every day, overwhelm, burnout, and self-sabotage ruin the lives of men. One bad day or poor decision can threaten your health, relationships, and work - or destroy your reputation, peace, and sanity. To manoeuvre in the modern world, manage your own ego, and build and protect psychological fitness and long-term performance, facing the man in the mirror is no longer optional. My job is to make this as easy as possible, and help prevent you from ever becoming a statistic. Having delivered over 7000 consultations for a broad range of challenges, I offer a pragmatic and performance-focused approach for those willing to do the work.

Many of the men I work with have spent years pushing things down, coping alone, or feeling they should just “get on with it” — until life becomes too heavy to carry quietly. I work specifically with men and understand that starting therapy can feel unfamiliar, uncomfortable, or difficult to talk about. I offer a supportive, non-judgemental space where you can speak openly and be properly heard. Before becoming a therapist, I spent over 25 years working in the construction industry, with some of that time spent running my own business. I understand the pressures many men carry — the expectation to cope and keep going.

I've been actively practicing as a Therapist for the last 9 years and have always worked with a variety of people from all ages and backgrounds. The youngest being 8 years and the oldest being 84. Many of these clients have lived in different places all over the country. This experience has meant that I have needed to become a different type of Therapist for each client that I work with to ensure that I am able to best support them. This has also meant that I have worked with people for many different reasons and has given me skills to comfortably meet people where they are and work towards their goals in Therapy.

I am a UKCP registered Counsellor and Psychotherapist, currently offering therapy in person, online or via the telephone. Appointments are available weekdays evenings. As the demands of day to day living have increased so have the levels of stress, anxiety and depression, these being a subsequent cause of personal and professional relational issues, therefore it is understandable, even acceptable that therapy has become a favourable option to help many of us address our challenges. It is my experience that therapy can provide us with a real opportunity to attain fresh understanding for the events cause us distress in our lives.
