About me
You are here because you would like something to be different. Right?
And I get that, I really do, because I have been where you are. I've felt the pain, avoided it, used on it, and sat with it to heal from it.
Maybe you are feeling stuck, and fed up of feeling fed up. Overwhelmed, anxious, have low self-esteem, and depressed. Or just caught up in the cycle of life repeating the same old patterns of behaviour thinking how have I ended up here? AGAIN! NO!!
Whatever it is, be it addiction, relationships, parenting- being a dad, school or work. I want you to know this… CHANGE IS POSSIBLE!
You are not defined by your struggles, and you do not have to face them alone. I am here, I hear you, and it would be my pleasure to help you find a way through.
Know this too, addiction is not a sign of weakness, and you are not “an addict.”
You are a human being who has found a way to cope, you have heart and it needs some love, and the fact that you are reading this highlights the hope you have, your courage, and the readiness for something better.
As Epictetus once wisely asked: “How long are you going to wait before you demand the best of yourself?”
True transformation is not about what you 'do,' it’s about 'who you are being,' and when we reconnect with our authentic self, we rise above what we must, accept what we can, and move forward with grace.
So see me more as a fellow traveller, as I have been down this road myself, where together, we will create a space for some truly open, honest, and compassionate conversations to allow our pain to evolve into wisdom and our fear into faith.
We will celebrate what’s already working, and where you are winning while appreciating you have everything you need inside you to live a life full of love, joy, gratitude, creativity, purpose, and meaning.
Remember, this is not about ‘fixing’ you, as you are not broken, lost or damaged. It’s about honouring who you already are. Your wholeness. Your completeness. Who you were born to be.
So that said, let me tell you about me, I’m Tom. A Psychotherapist and Behaviour Change Expert. I specialise in Addiction and Relationships where for over 20 years now, I have supported some of the most amazing and beautiful people, as I believe that’s what we all are, to see what’s true about our experience of life. Hence why I shared what I did above.
I have a wealth of experience spanning diverse settings such as esteemed rehabilitation centres like the Priory, the NHS, in schools/SEND, and within the corporate sector. I bring a unique blend of expertise to the table to help people come home to that place within where they can sustainably feel safer, secure, and more settled and stable than ever before.
Holding a Masters in Addiction Psychology and Counselling, a Post Graduate Certificate of Education and several other advanced qualifications in relationships and trauma, I am also a Registered Member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP) and an Accredited, and Advanced Practitioner with the Addiction Professionals where given my own research and publications, I am considered to be at the forefront of pioneering transformative therapeutic practices.
I am also extremely passionate about child welfare and firmly believe that if we do not listen to our children, while attending to ourselves, then we are far more likely to have adults who have been unheard, and wounded as a result. This, the reason why I strive to implement, explore and develop early intervention strategies and techniques so there can be an appreciation of the fact that all behaviour is a form of communication.
In concluding work with me, clients often describe feeling heard, lighter, and knowing what needs to happen. And as one so eloquently shared: “I have never felt clearer and am truly excited for the future.”
Thank you for taking the time to read my profile, and considering working with me. I look forward to talking more.
Best,
Tom x

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.
