If work has pushed you past your limits, you may recognise the pattern. Exhausted but wired. Irritable with people you care about. Unable to switch off, and starting to wonder whether this is burnout or something more like depression. Many of my clients are professional men who carried this for a long time before contacting anyone. Therapy with me is confidential and practical, and we work to a plan agreed between us.
I am an HCPC registered Counselling Psychologist and BABCP accredited CBT therapist with over 20 years' experience. I use CBT and ACT, and we review progress openly so therapy stays focused rather than open-ended. I also work with anxiety, depression, stress and low self-esteem, and offer neurodiversity-affirming therapy for ADHD and autistic adults.
Sessions are in person in Solihull or online across the UK, with lunchtime and Tuesday evening appointments. I am recognised by Aviva, AXA Health, Bupa, Vitality and WPA. I am blind and work with my guide dog Maggie, a calm, friendly presence in sessions. It makes no practical difference to the work, and I welcome questions in a free 15-minute call.
