I was trained as an integrative counsellor, which is about having a wide range of perspectives on the hu man condition and an open-mind.
We all struggle at times and sometimes it feels too much for us. Suffering reaches us in so many guises and we all react in our own way. Reaching out for professional help is an important step in working towards the changes that you want. Whether the past is holding you back, the future fills you with anxiety or you are struggling with the 'here and now' I would like to offer my help. There is only so much we can manage alone and sometime our closest relationships are too close to help us see more clearly, to make sense of our confusion and provide a safe place to explore who we really are. That's why I'm here - to help you.

I use as many channels available for exploration as possible to enable the psyche to speak.
I work to enable a person to be their natural self, to discover more and more how life wants them to be, even though life may have been full of difficult circumstances which have left their mark, and sometimes even destroying a person’s ability to live effectively and in harmony with themselves.

Thanks for looking at my profile. I work with a broad range of clients, and understand that no two clients are the same. I tailor and specialise my clinical work to meet the specific needs and goals of each individual. I'm interested in the subconscious, how we may adopt coping strategies in order to avoid pain, and how this in turn may exacerbate pain further. I'm also interested in how addictive behaviours may develop, and how I can pick apart addictive processes and help to modify them into more constructive strategies. I have specific interest in chronic pain/conditions, and have a variety of strategies to help in this area.

If you’re experiencing overwhelming anxiety or stress, I can help. I’ve helped people with issues like panic attacks, social or health anxiety, financial worries, work or relationship stress. While that’s my speciality, I can also help with a variety of other issues (depression, relationships, bereavement etc). I work collaboratively and compassionately, and always follow your lead. I’m inclusive and welcoming whatever your background, identity or experience. We can explore your experiences so you can better understand yourself, increase compassion for yourself, and become better equipped at coping with anything life throws at you.

I have experience with time-limited sessions, which many clients prefer for specific objectives.
Feeling overwhelmed or exhausted with everything happening in the world? You’re not alone. It's no surprise that sometimes you feel overwhelmed, stretched thin, or just plain exhausted. It can be hard to find a way through these feelings on your own. Talking about your feelings and their impact can be a powerful first step. As a therapist, I'm known for being warm, supportive, funny, and even direct when needed. Together, we’ll set goals for our sessions, and I’ll use the knowledge from my multiple degrees, clinical courses, and thousands of hours of client work to help you achieve those goals.

My person-centred modality carries the core belief that we are all born innately good. Things happen to us along our journey in life. Learnt behaviour and experiences shape our thoughts and feelings in our development. We can repeat our reactions to circumstances when they occur in adulthood. We can become unconscious of our behaviours because of the busy lives we lead. It's as if our experiences stick to us like "papier mache' " in the developmental years, forming a different self. This can be an uncomfortable and unwelcome reality that we want to change in adulthood or when it becomes painful, but we often do not know how to.

I help people rediscover their true self when they have become lost. Losing your sense of self can appear in many forms and for many reasons. For example, parenthood, work issues, bereavement, relationships, childhood experience, abuse, traumatic experiences and retirement a few situations which can leave people feeling that they have lost a sense of who they are. If you’ve found yourself questioning your values, your self-worth, your path in life, or the answer to the question, “Who am I?” you may be struggling with something which is often able to be resolved through the self-exploration which counselling & therapy provides.

I work with other gay men who experience challenges around sex, chemsex, sexuality, identity and shame.
Hello! A very warm welcome to you. As we face these uncertain times in our world, we find ourselves coming up against many challenges that may be exacerbating our existing internal struggles. It feels more important than ever to find some sense of certainty and purpose in these difficult times. The very idea of isolation can bring on fear and anxiety, uncertainty around our livelihoods can trigger old and new coping strategies that may feel damaging to one’s self.

Counselling can help you change from feeling that your story is being written for you and learn how to start writing it for yourself.

Many of us can struggle with how we feel sometimes. I hope that what I offer is a place where you can talk about what is going on for you and how you are feeling. I see psychotherapy as a way of offering you a space to say everything, to be listened to at depth; it is about being able to say out all those thoughts and feelings that run through our minds. It is to help you find hope, a way of getting to be back in charge, of being able to cope, of moving towards happiness and relationship.

Male Counsellors

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. Prospective clients should also ask what the expectation is for treatment, and what the fee structure is, and whether and which insurance plans are accepted.

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 a male therapist. 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, in the case of male clients. Some women have prior negative experiences with women that predispose them to prefer working with a male in therapy. 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.
