About me

Hi, I'm Joe, working online so we can connect, wherever you are.

I have four linked specialities:

  • I specialise in counselling for life-changing events and their fall-out;
  • I specialise in bereavement counselling, working with loss and grief, finding ways of building your new ‘normal’;
  • I specialise in relationship counselling, working around relationship endings, marital problems, and deciding what to do if a partner has been unfaithful;
  • I specialise in counselling for carers, working through the inevitable changes in life and relationship dynamics of caring for a loved one. 

...and we can work with whatever else comes up, as it always does. Whatever it is, you & I will work on it together - I'm ready when you are

I welcome neurodiverse and LGBTQ+ / GSRD clients - I welcome everyone, no matter who you are or how you identify.

We'll connect and find the best way for you. Sometimes a few sessions is enough to find a way through your issue; sometimes it takes longer.

I work either short-term or long-term, so we can decide together what you need and review as we go.

Whether you're desperate to start therapy, or unsure about your next steps, it all starts with a simple conversation to see if we want to work together. The most important part of therapy is our working relationship, and that begins when you decide to connect with me.
I'm ready when you are, Email me...

We are complex and there's rarely just one thing going on.
Just because a box isn't ticked doesn't mean we can't talk about it - I work with people, and we all have a complex set of issues.
