About me
Hello, I'm Jamie, a qualified therapeutic counsellor, looking forward to understanding and supporting you on your counselling journey.
- Are you experiencing low moods, frustration, or anxiety, which means you are unable to enjoy a healthy life?
- Do you feel out of sync with reality or disconnected from your life?
- Does life feel harder than it should, finding yourself stuck or without the tools you need to make changes?
- Do you hope for relationships that are more meaningful and that satisfy your needs?
I offer support tailored to your specific needs, whether you're seeking individual growth or looking to improve your relationship dynamics.
At its core, my approach centres on understanding and affirming your identity and how you relate to the world around you. We will work collaboratively to alleviate your distress, build healthier, more meaningful relationships with yourself and others, and empower you to feel more certain of who you truly are.
Specialist areas that my approach works well with are:
- Mens mental health - Providing a safe and supportive space for you to explore your challenges through male-focused therapy. Acknowledging the obstacles specific to men in therapy.
- LGBT+ affirmative therapy - Embracing your sexual identity and gender in therapy, and acknowledging the additional stress of living in a heteronormaitve reality.
- Neurodivergence affirmative therapy - Welcoming you to explore your issues from within your lived experience, and express yourself in ways that reflect your true, whole self.
- Relationship and family issues - Addressing family estrangement, abuse, and other relational difficulties free from social stigma.
- Couples counselling - Helping partners strengthen their communication and resolve conflict and other relationship issues.
- Unexplained distress or anxiety - Identify the root causes of your problems through free exploration of yourself and your reality. We will focus on growth rather than specific goals.
Deciding on the right counsellor to meet your needs is an important first step. I invite you to a complimentary 20-minute introductory video or telephone session to assist you in making an informed decision.
