About me

Do you feel like you are managing everything, but masking how hard it really is?

There are times when life feels overwhelming, even when outwardly everything appears to be functioning well. You may be navigating a demanding career, supporting your family, carrying significant responsibilities, and doing your best to keep everything together. Yet privately, you might be struggling with burnout, exhaustion, stress, or relationship difficulties.
Many of the individuals I work with are high-functioning on the outside but privately dealing with:
Burnout & Workplace Pressure: Feeling stuck, drained, or overwhelmed by leadership and professional roles.
Low Self-Confidence: Battling persistent self-doubt or low self-esteem despite your outward achievements.
Loneliness: Feeling deeply isolated, like you have no safe space to drop the mask or share your burdens with those around you.
Identity & Belonging: Navigating complex cultural expectations, family pressures, or major life transitions.

You are often the person everyone else depends upon, yet you rarely have a space where you can talk openly about your own needs and challenges.

Why Work With Me?
Alongside my counselling practice, I bring extensive experience from healthcare leadership and professional coaching. This background enables me to work particularly effectively with professionals, managers, leaders, helping professionals, and parents who are navigating high-pressure environments.
As a Black British man who was born in Jamaica and moved to England as a child, I also deeply understand how culture, identity, family expectations, and belonging shape our emotional wellbeing. I have a particular interest in supporting men, parents, and professionals who carry heavy pressures that feel difficult to share with friends, family, or colleagues.

My Approach: Tailored Therapy & Coaching
I am a BACP Registered Integrative Counsellor and Professional Coach, offering online therapy to adults across the UK.
My approach combines person-centred and psychodynamic therapy with practical coaching. This means we can work together to understand the deep emotional roots of your difficulties, while also helping you develop greater clarity, confidence, and direction to move forward.
(Please note: Counselling and coaching are offered as distinct services with clear professional boundaries, allowing us to choose the approach that best meets your needs.)
My ultimate aim is to provide a warm, supportive, and non-judgemental space where you feel genuinely heard, understood, and supported as you explore your thoughts and experiences at your own pace.

Take the First Step Today
Therapy is not about having all the answers; it is about creating the room to explore what matters most to you and moving forward in a way that feels authentic and meaningful. You do not have to carry this weight alone anymore.
I offer all my sessions online and provide a free introductory consultation so we can explore whether we are a good fit for working together.
Get in touch today to book your brief, low-pressure introductory call.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
