About me
Hi, I’m Nathan.
If you’re here, something has probably led you to start thinking about therapy. You might know exactly what that is, or you might not. Either way, you don’t need to have the words or the answers before we begin.
One of the things I say most often in therapy is this:
People make sense.
Even when it doesn’t feel like it.
The thoughts you have, the emotions you experience, the ways you cope, the patterns you find yourself repeating—there is usually a reason they’re there. My job isn’t to judge them or tell you they’re wrong. It’s to help you understand where they’ve come from, what purpose they’ve served, and whether they’re still helping you today.
I’m an integrative psychotherapist with experience across both the NHS and specialist community services. I specialise in trauma because our experiences—especially the difficult ones—can shape how we see ourselves, other people, and the world around us in ways we often don’t realise. When we begin to understand why our minds work the way they do, change often becomes far more achievable.
I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to therapy. Every person is different, so I work collaboratively and adapt my approach to suit you. Some sessions involve exploring the past, others focus on what’s happening in the present, and many involve making connections between the two. Together, we’ll build an understanding that feels meaningful to you, rather than relying on labels or assumptions.
Alongside my private practice, I work within a specialist service supporting people with complex mental health difficulties, substance use, trauma, and emotional distress. I also have extensive experience working with young people, helping them feel heard, understood, and accepted without judgement.
The relationship we build is central to the work we do together. I aim to create a space that feels genuine, warm, and human. Therapy with me isn’t about sitting in silence or being told what to do. It’s a conversation. I’ll listen, ask questions, share ideas, offer different perspectives, and when it’s helpful, gently challenge you. There will be difficult moments, but there can also be laughter, curiosity, and hope.
Starting therapy can feel like a big step. Whether you’re looking for support with anxiety, trauma, relationships, self-esteem, addiction, loss, or you’re simply trying to understand yourself better, we’ll begin wherever you are.
Because people make sense.
Sometimes we just need the space to discover why.
Training, qualifications & experience
I currently hold a masters degree with Salford university in counselling and psychotherapy and have a wide range of experience working within the NHS and charity sectors as a therapist. I manage my time between my role here and at a charitable organisation in Huddersfield. I have been qualified for several years now gaining over 1500 clinical and supervised hours and am currently in the process of gaining my professional accreditation. during my time as a qualified therapist, I have also undertaken training in (ACT) acceptance and commitment therapy, (DBT) dialectical behavioural therapy "skills coaching" training and a mindfulness teaching qualification.
I pride myself in being an integrative therapist, who can tailor your sessions to suit your needs using a wide range of core theories.
my background prior to being a therapist stems from a 12 year career in mental health settings, working predominantly in secondary care within hospitals collaboratively working within a multi-disciplinary team of doctors, nurses, other therapists and social workers.
