Counselling & Psychotherapy in Birkenhead & Online

My Story Get In Touch

Therapy in Birkenhead & On-line

I’m a UK-based registered therapist working with women, men, and adolescent boys navigating anxiety, stress, identity, and emotional disconnection. I offer a grounded, relational space to explore what feels difficult, stuck, or overwhelming in your life. Many of my clients come when they feel lost in themselves, disconnected from others, or unsure of their direction. Together, we work to understand your emotional world, ease distress, and build a stronger sense of clarity, connection, and self-trust. My approach is warm, collaborative, and trauma-informed, supporting meaningful change at a pace that feels safe, respectful, and tailored to your individual needs and life stage.

About Me

Prior to beginning my professional training in psychotherapy, my journey began through self study of psychology, psychotherapy and self-help out of necessity; I was harbouring a PTSD of daily paranoia and panic attacks that had brought me to a place of hopelessness and suicidal ideation. Although learning more about how my body was responding to life was helpful, it was entering therapy that was the catalyst for a healing journey that continues to this day.

My Approach

I believe that most of our pains and challenges in this life arise from an injurious experience in relationship; whether that be with our parents during childhood; friendship betrayals; romantic relationship challenges; to deeply traumatic and life altering experiences. As such, entering a therapy that is relational first and foremost offers opportunity for these wounds to present themselves within a culture of trust and safety. In other words – I will work to show up for you; holding a space with presence, openness, compassion, non-judgement, and a commitment to deep listening, to help you in noticing how your body is responding to the world around you. Though your experience may manifest as anxiety, depression, PTSD, hopelessness, fear, anger, loneliness, neurodiversity or so on, I welcome all of you. 

How I Work?

I am trained to university degree level in Experiential Counselling & Psychotherapy. The modalities that inform my practice are the Person Centred Approach, Existential Therapy, Transpersonal Therapy, and Emotion Focussed Therapy. Outside of my therapy practice, I am a trained and recognised (IPHM) transpersonal space holder and men’s work facilitator for Embodied Masculine™; I also work alongside world leading facilitators in the Tantric and Shamanic healing modalities. My experience with professional psychotherapy, esoteric healing modalities, and my personal journey of life culminate in a diverse approach to therapy, and a commitment to work with you to identify your next step.

What to Expect From Our First Session?

It’s a big step to begin the therapy journey, never mind beginning to share experiences close to your heart. Aside from some practicalities around our journey together, our first session will be getting to know one another in a relaxed and inviting atmosphere, for me to learn more about your journey and what brings you to therapy. This is a space for you too, to ask questions about me, should you have them. We may discuss how life is for you, or what your vision is for the future (or even that you struggle to see one). I carry no expectations of you for our first meeting, so I invite you to come as you are. 

Who I Work With?

Since I began holding space, I have worked with people across a wide range of backgrounds and life experiences; from adolescents aged 14 through to those in the later stages of life.

I work closely with young men as they navigate their transition into adulthood, supporting them to develop a grounded, embodied understanding of themselves and their place in the world.

Alongside this, I work with individuals of all genders in a therapeutic context, supporting clients with a broad range of emotional, psychological, and relational challenges. This includes experiences such as ADHD, autism, depression, anxiety, psychosis, PTSD, grief and bereavement, relationship difficulties, loneliness, anger, questions of purpose, and periods of significant personal or spiritual change.

Through a free consultation, we can explore whether this way of working feels aligned for you.
