You may be feeling anxious, low, overwhelmed, or stuck in patterns you don’t fully understand.

Outwardly you may function well, yet privately feel dissatisfied or emotionally stretched. You want a clearer understanding of what is happening and practical, effective ways to move forward. My patients are often thoughtful, capable individuals seeking meaningful psychological change, greater emotional freedom, and a more sustainable way of living.

Hello, my name is David and thank you for taking the time to read my profile. The fact that you’re considering seeing a counsellor means that you’re unhappy with a part of your life, whether it be an unfulfilling relationship, an uncertainty about career or lifestyle choices, or thoughts and behaviours that inhibit your ability to lead the life that you once dared to imagine. The pandemic has also forced people to look again at their life and reappraise what they really want from it.

I’m a neurodivergent therapist working with clients who want to understand themselves more deeply and live more authentically.
You might feel like you’ve spent years masking who you are, struggling to feel truly understood, or finding relationships harder than they seem for others. You may feel disconnected, unsure of yourself, or like you can't be the “real” you.
Many of my clients are autistic, ADHD or AuDHD (inclusive of those self-diagnosed or questioning). I therefore work in a neurodiversity-affirming way, where the aim is to understand how your mind works and what you need

Hi, I’m Conor, an Integrative Counsellor & Psychotherapist. More importantly, I’m a person - just like you. I’ve experienced life’s joys, challenges and messiness - maybe not so different from what you’re facing now. I don’t believe in a one size fits all approach to therapy because no two people are the same, so I integrate various therapeutic approaches to tailor our sessions to what we feel is helpful for you and your unique experiences. To me, therapy can be a space for anything between serious work and humour but it isn’t rocket science – we're two people meeting, listening, and responding.

Men's Issues Counsellors
Is therapy for men different than it is for women?
Therapeutic treatments and types are the same for men as they are for women, with the same protocols followed and the same strategies employed. Discussing one’s feelings and emotions is an integral part of most therapies, and some men find doing so more challenging. Therapists can help clients through the process; some specialize in treating men for this reason.
How do you encourage a man to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual’s behavior affected either himself or others should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can men prepare for therapy?
Men can prepare for therapy by approaching the process with an open mind, being willing to talk about their challenges, and giving treatment the time to work. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. It can be useful for men who struggle to recall their emotional states to write down notes between sessions about their response to a given event or how they were feeling at a particular time.
What should men know about the process of therapy?
One of the most common reasons men don’t seek therapy is the notion that there’s something wrong with them if they do. Men should know that just because they’re seeking therapy doesn’t mean they’re mentally ill or damaged in some way. In the same way people work on their bodies through exercise or a craft through practice, therapy can be a way to improve the mental and emotional skills needed to be productive and effective partners, employees, and people in all realms of life.
