About Me

Therapy is a means of exploring oneself - both for personal development and also to resolve personal, emotional and psychological difficulties. It is a way of examining your past and your present in order to decide upon your future.

Who am I?
My name is David and I am Chartered Integrative Counselling Psychology, an Associate Fellow of the British Psychological Society and I am a UKCP accredited Integrative Psychotherapist.
I integrate theory and approaches from various models to tailor my approach to suit your individual needs; I respect that each person experiences events differently depending on the influences from their past experiences, past relationships, cultural background and the context in which we live. I therefore strive to understand you through your own unique lens before considering the approach that will be most beneficial.

As a relational therapist, I place the relationship between therapist and client at the heart of my work and see this relationship as an important part of the therapy process.

Why talk to a psychologist?

At times we can feel confused and very alone with our problems and suffering. We may feel that we have no one we can talk things through with or it can be difficult to talk to our loved ones, perhaps because they are too close to us. It can be easier to speak to someone we don't 'know' like a therapist.

How can therapy help me?

It is inevitable that at times we will experience difficult feelings, or face challenges which can leave us feeling confused, troubled, isolated and distressed. These problems not only affect us, but can also have an impact on other relationships in our lives. Counselling can be beneficial in that it provides a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space for you to explore problems and alleviate distress. Through the client-therapist relationship you can -

  • Reflect upon and increase awareness about what is troubling you
  • Express your thoughts, feelings, beliefs and values
  • Consider the choices and options available to you
  • Acquire clarity in coping or responding to situations/dilemmas
