About me

You might be thinking: How can this therapist really help me? What could he possibly know about my life? These are completely fair questions. The truth is, I can't know exactly what it's like to be you or walk in your shoes - no therapist can.

But that isn't actually what helps people heal. What matters is understanding how psychological suffering works, what keeps it going, and how to help it ease.

That is what I have spent the past 17 years learning and applying in clinical practice. As a BABCP-accredited therapist, my background spans the full breadth of mental health care - from primary care services working with common mental health difficulties, through to specialist community teams supporting severe and enduring mental illness.

Today, my practice is focused on working with adults across the full spectrum of emotional difficulty, including depression, the full range of anxiety disorders, PTSD, and general stress or burnout. Most people who reach out to me have been trying to figure things out on their own for a long time, or have tried therapy before, yet still feel stuck.

Working with me isn't just about talking - it's about getting clear on the exact mechanisms keeping you stuck and taking practical steps to move forward. I offer a space that is clear, compassionate, and non-judgemental. Note on booking: If you don't see a suitable time slot on my calendar, I can often adjust start times by 30 minutes either way.

Feel free to send a brief enquiry to check availability.
