I’m Oliver, a psychodynamic psychotherapist working with adults who are seeking help with anxiety, low mood or depression, relationship difficulties, and periods of uncertainty about meaning, purpose, direction or identity. People often come to therapy when things feel overwhelming, confusing, or hard to make sense of alone. Feelings may be sensed as unease, dread, or bodily reactions rather than clearly understood thoughts. Much of the work involves staying with what feels difficult to think about, allowing it to be held rather than prematurely resolved.

Life can sometimes feel hard. You may be struggling with your relationships, work or life in general. If you are finding it difficult to get through this, and to make a change for the better, I can help you. I know how earlier experiences can influence current feelings and actions, and by understanding them yourself you can start to make positive changes. I also have additional training and understanding of working with couples who are experiencing relationship difficulties and anyone who is struggling with loss and grief.

You're a male in your 30s or 40s, experiencing stress, overwhelm, and anxiety and it's affecting your performance and your relationships, with your wife and your children. Bottom line, you're not happy and you don't have the bandwidth to deal with everything and everyone. Your ways of coping, avoiding people, staying out or up late, and overeating or using substances as a way to soothe and escape are now causing more harm than good. It's time to change things.

If you wish to bring clarity to your situation, to change your perspectives and feelings about yourself and your life, to combat your difficulties and to create positive changes for yourself, perhaps the therapy with me could be a first step in the right direction. I provide a professional and confidential space where you can feel welcomed; where your thoughts and feelings can be talked about without a fear of being judged or criticised; where we can explore the reasons that brought you to therapy, your present difficulties and influences from the past; where you can achieve greater insights and understanding of yourself.

I'm a psychotherapist, breathworker, corporate speaker, trainer, group holder & play therapist with 18+ years experience. Working somatically, relationally and collaboratively I support you to find balance between building trust & safety, whilst providing enough challenge to find deep lasting change from long standing painful relational patterns. Specialising in trauma, including relational trauma, family dysfunction, childhood & adult sexual trauma. Working with mind, body, soul and spirit, I view the human experience through a holistic lens - you are not a person who needs to be fixed, but have wounds that need attending to.

Welcome. Life can feel heavy or confusing, especially when you are carrying more than others realise. If you feel lost or stuck, therapy can offer space to slow down and reconnect with your true self. Reaching out takes courage, and even searching for the right therapist is already an act of self-care. As a BACP registered and highly trained therapist I offer in person or online sessions, whatever works best for you. This is a confidential and fully accepting space to feel understood and move towards something lighter.

Hi! I'm Erin. Thanks so much for taking the time to read my profile. I always wanted to be a psychologist since I was 12 years old. I even remember the exact spot I was standing when I told my friend that I wasn't sure I would do it because the amount of education required took too long! My hesitation did not last long after I took International Baccalaureate level Psychology in High School and fell in love. Then there was no turning back and after a BA in Psychology, an MSc in Child Development, I completed my doctoral degree and became a psychologist.

I have a long career working with those struggling to make sense of their difficulties. The decision to start therapy can be challenging, I therefore provide a space where your experiences can be explored in a compassionate, confidential and collaborative way. At a time when it seems hard to make sense of things in your life that are causing you distress this can be difficult and life can feel unfulfilling.

You might be feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stuck or like you’ve lost a bit of yourself somewhere along the way. Maybe life looks fine from the outside but inside you’re juggling too much, overthinking everything, or battling self-doubt. You might be navigating parenting, relationships, identity shifts, burnout, grief or your own neurodivergence. Or perhaps you’re simply tired of feeling “not enough” and want a space where you can be honest, understood and supported. Whatever your starting point, I offer a safe, confidential space to help you understand yourself and what you need moving forward.
