About me
Hello, I’m John. I provide a calm, grounded space for adults and couples who feel overwhelmed by the 'noise' of daily life. Having navigated the complexities of ADHD and neurodiversity myself, I offer a therapy experience where you can feel truly understood rather than just 'managed.
Whether you are struggling with the constant 'what ifs' of anxiety, the executive function hurdles of ADHD, or the heavy weight of past trauma, we will work at your pace to find your footing again. My approach is practical and supportive—I don’t just sit in silence; I work actively with you to build resilience and clarity.
I believe therapy should fit your life, which is why I offer sessions in my private therapy room near Antrim, online, or via Walk-and-Talk therapy for those who find the outdoors more conducive to opening up.
Taking the first step is often the hardest part. Feel free to message me for a brief, no-pressure chat to see if we’re the right fit to work 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.
