Hello, I’m John. I specialize in helping adults and couples navigate the chaos of Anxiety, ADHD, and Trauma. Having navigated the complexities of neurodiversity myself, I know that you don't just need to be heard—you need to be understood by someone who 'gets' how your brain works.
I offer a grounded, practical space to help you find your footing. Whether we work together in my private room in Antrim, online, or through Walk-and-Talk therapy in the fresh air, we will focus on building the resilience and clarity you need to move from 'surviving' to thriving.
Taking the first step is often the hardest. I invite you to reach out for a brief, no-pressure chat to see if we’re a good fit. I’m here to help you move forward.
Take the first step to help. Call or John Darby now - 07912 886475

Our work together will involve the slow build up of trust to increase your feeling of safety and security. We will rebuild your self-worth, work on practical techniques you can use at home to stop spiralling and anxiety. My aim is to make you stronger through our process as you can grow from trauma once you are freed from the anxiety of it.
