About me
You’re here because something isn’t working. Maybe you feel stuck, like no matter what you do, you keep falling into the same patterns. Anxiety, self-doubt, or overthinking might be running the show, and honestly? You’re fucking tired of it. You want change, but breaking out of the cycle feels impossible.
That’s where I come in. I’m Robbie, a qualified psychotherapist, and I help people in their 20s and 30s navigate the messiness of life, figure out what’s holding them back, and actually feel good about themselves. Therapy with me isn’t about bullshit advice or toxic positivity, it’s about real conversations that create real change.
I know how frustrating it is to feel like you’re going in circles. Maybe you struggle with anxiety, self-esteem, anger, or relationships. Maybe you feel lost and like you’re just drifting. You don’t have to figure it out alone.
We’ll work together to understand the deeper patterns at play, break the cycle, and get you to a place where you feel clear, confident, and in control. My approach is direct but supportive, tailored to you, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
If this sounds familiar, let’s talk. I offer a free consultation where we can see if we’re the right fit. Reach out today and take the first step.
Training, qualifications & experience
I have completed a Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling after 4 years of training, which has provided me with a comprehensive understanding of various therapeutic approaches, including integrative and person-centred techniques. This training involved extensive coursework, practical sessions, and supervised placements, ensuring I am well-prepared to offer effective and compassionate support.
My professional experience includes working with Choose Therapy, an online counselling platform where I honed my skills in providing remote therapy to a diverse clientele. I am currently contributing my expertise to the NHS Talking Therapies in Sutton, where I work with clients facing a range of mental health challenges, including anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and PTSD.
These roles, combined with my training, have given me valuable insights into the unique needs of each client, allowing me to tailor my approach to provide the most effective care. As a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), I am committed to upholding the highest ethical standards and continuing my professional development.
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.
