About me
My approach to therapy is pluralistic. This means I work collaboratively with clients, drawing on a wide range of tools and perspectives to tailor therapy to your individual needs. Together, we’ll explore what brings you to therapy, and through the use of your feedback and regular check-ins, find an approach that feels right to you. Your voice matters, and I will adapt as your needs or goals evolve.
In my practice, I have helped my clients experiencing anxiety, depression, stress and suicidal thoughts, as well as those grappling with deeper existential questions around identity, relationships, and direction in life. While pluralism offers flexibility, my strengths lie in humanistic and relational approaches such as person centred and existential therapy. These approaches aim to help you feel grounded, understood, and supported as you make sense of yourself, others, and the world around you.
Before becoming a therapist, I worked as a climbing instructor and coach - a role that taught me patience, encouragement and respect for each person’s unique experience of challenge. My own experience of therapy, alongside those years of supporting others in challenging situations, inspired me to train as a therapist.
I hold an MSc in Pluralistic Counselling from Abertay University, and my ongoing learning focuses on existential psychotherapy. I recognise that as a straight, white able-bodied man in my 30’s, I hold certain privileges that not everyone shares. However, I am committed to listening, learning, and creating a space where all clients feel valued, heard, and respected, whatever their background or identity. My goal is to be an ally and contribute to a more equitable world - beginning with the therapeutic space we create together.

Member organisations
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.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
