    My aim is to provide a down-to-earth and relatable form of counselling for my clients. I provide support for a range of issues, but a particular area of focus is in self-esteem, anxiety and depression. I work with clients aged 16 and above with a good deal of experience working with young adults. You’ll find a calm and relaxed space to share your story and you’ll always have full control of the process. As a Registered Member of the BACP, you can have confidence that you’ll be working with a fully qualified and insured professional. If you’d like to know more, please contact me and we can arrange a free 30 minute consultation."

    Hi, I’m David. I’m a psychotherapist.

    As a Psychotherapist working in private practice, I help adults who are experiencing considerable difficulties with their feelings about themselves and in their relationships with others - particularly with partners, family and at work.  These difficulties, often originating in early family life, can cause a variety of psychological problems which affect mental health, sometimes severely. I provide clients with a safe therapeutic setting, offering better understanding of self and of important relationships, using a psychodynamic approach. Longer term therapy of once weekly or more frequent sessions is most effective for clients experiencing severe and persistent problems and appointments for most clients are conducted in person - online appointments are also available for clients when well established in therapy.   I am a Registered Member (No. 403727) of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.  

    Please contact me via email to arrange a brief conversation and discuss an initial psychotherapy appointment.

    I believe talking therapy and the power of counselling can change your life in a very positive and powerful way. I am an integrative counsellor, with my approach being firmly based in Person Centered Therapy, but flexible to integrating other therapeutic techniques that may be useful to you. Person Centered Therapy means us working together. I will listen to the thoughts and feelings that are causing you unhappiness or distress. We are all individuals and need different things from counselling, so we can integrate other therapy, for example CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) if it feels right for you.

    For me it is important to find the right counsellor for you. Someone you feel comfortable with, to build up your trust in and have a good therapeutic relationship with. I offer a confidential, non-judgmental place, where you can talk about whatever you need to.

    Alongside my private practice I work as a nurse in the NHS. I chose to retrain as a nurse in my late 20's following the complicated birth of my daughter. This has then led me to where I am today, having become a counsellor. I am a parent and grandparent, and can fully empathise and appreciate the difficulties parenting and families can raise.

    Life throws many surprises at us, and while we cannot predict the outcome of any situation, we can take control of how we respond to certain situations. My approach to counselling is integrative and adapted to each client, offering a safe, confidential and professional space.

    I believe that the most important element for counselling to work effectively is the relationship between client and counsellor. This relationship is an equal partnership; one that is built on honesty, trust, empathy, equality, genuineness and acceptance. I want you to feel safe and accepted and able to be your true self in our relationship, rather than conforming to conditions placed upon you- by others, or by society.
