About me and my therapy practice
Many of the men I work with are doing well on the outside, managing careers and responsibilities, while carrying anxiety, overwhelm, a difficult transition or a sense of disconnection that doesn't show. They often come having already done some work on themselves and want to go further than coping.
I offer a warm and creative space to explore your challenges without judgement or shame. As an Integrative Transpersonal Counsellor, I draw on a range of approaches and attend to the emotional, relational and spiritual sides of experience. This might include questions of identity, purpose, creativity and belonging where those feel meaningful to you. Therapy can be a place to slow down, reflect and understand patterns that no longer feel sustainable.
Practice description
Our work together is a conversation. I'll meet you where you are and we'll find a rhythm that suits you. Some men arrive with a specific difficulty to untangle. Others come knowing only that something needs to change. Both are a good place to begin.
Art and creativity can form a supportive part of the work. We may explore metaphor, dreams, visual materials or simple art-based reflections as ways into inner experience and meaning. These approaches are always optional, used in service of insight and integration. They are never something you need any artistic experience for.
You can expect a calm, non-judgemental space. I work with men individually, online.
My first session
Our first session is a chance to talk about what has brought you to therapy and what you're hoping for from it. There's no pressure to have everything worked out or to tell your whole story at once. It's also a chance for you to get a feel for how I work and if it feels right for you. If you'd like to go ahead after that, we'll agree how often to meet and then take it from there. The first session is charger at my standard session fee.
