Supporting Your Growth, Healing, and Well-being

Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward? Whether you're navigating personal challenges, mental health concerns, or looking for deeper self-understanding, I offer a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space for you to explore your thoughts and emotions.

Hi, I’m James – a Psychotherapeutic Counsellor based in the UK. I offer online therapy for adults and young people (18+) facing everyday challenges, mental health concerns, or emotional difficulties. I work collaboratively with adults and young people (18+) to help them overcome difficulties and achieve meaningful change. My approach is grounded in person-centred therapy, which means you remain at the heart of the work we do together, and our sessions are tailored to your unique needs and experiences.

What I Can Help With

I provide support with a range of issues, including but not limited to:

• Anxiety and Stress: Managing overwhelming feelings and finding calm.
• Depression and Low Mood: Reconnecting with hope and purpose.
• Relationship Issues: Exploring patterns, improving communication, and navigating conflicts.
• Self-Esteem and Confidence: Building a stronger sense of self-worth.
•  Life Transitions: Adapting to changes like career shifts, bereavement, or personal growth.
• Sexual Issues: Offering a supportive environment to discuss sensitive concerns.
• Young Adults (18+): Addressing challenges unique to students and early adulthood.

My Approach

I believe in the power of human connection and the importance of feeling truly heard and understood. My work is rooted in the humanistic and existential traditions, helping clients uncover meaning and develop resilience.

In our sessions, I combine the core principles of person-centred therapy with integrative techniques that can deepen self-awareness and support holistic growth. Together, we will work towards clarity, emotional healing, and the confidence to navigate life’s complexities.

What You Can Expect

• A warm, welcoming space to express yourself openly.
• Flexible appointment times, including weekday evenings and weekend mornings.
• A collaborative, tailored approach to meet your goals and needs.

Professional Qualifications and Experience

• Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP)
• Level 4 CPCAB Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling
• Level 5 CPCAB Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling (Ongoing)
• Suicide Prevention and Awareness Training
• Delivering Substance Use Brief Interventions for Adults Training 
• Trauma-Informed Practice Training
• Four years combined experience supporting individuals at the UK mental health charity MIND, supporting texters in crisis at UK mental health text service SHOUT, and supporting clients through my own private counselling practice.

During our first counselling session together, we will explore what the focus of our work might be and get a sense of what meeting together feels like. This session is not just about me understanding you, but also about you gauging how comfortable and heard you feel with me as your counsellor.

I will listen to what has brought you to counselling and perform an assessment. Then together, we will establish what you would like to get from therapy, and I will work to your agenda.

My style is relaxed, informal, and friendly. Sessions are in confidence with no judgement.
