My Approach

I tend to draw on numerous systemic family therapy approaches, dependent on your needs and circumstances, hoping to help you identify new ways to understand and respond to challenges, but when asked and appropriate, I will always try to offer my own views as to what may be going on.
As a starting point, I like to offer a free telephone consultation to help us all consider whether it feels right to begin to work together. Ideally, both of you would be present for this call, so that from the outset, we can plan together. Once the work begins, I like to agree a regular review point, where we can think about how things are going.
I am seeing couples online (via Zoom), on weekday evenings and weekends. I charge £80 a session.

About Me

Therapy can help couples to navigate difficult events and circumstances. Whether this has directly affected one or both of you, it is inevitable that your relationship will be a place that can help you to emerge from these difficulties, but also place a great strain on your bond.
Having someone to talk with, understand better, and begin to identify new approaches to these issues can be imperative to the health of your relationship, as well as the mental health of each of you.
Nonetheless, it can be daunting to even consider seeking out therapy as a couple, and it is therefore imperative that both of you feel heard and safe when you do so. This is at the forefront of my mind as a therapist. It can also seem intimidating in terms of time and finances to commit to a process that may not have a clear start and end point. This is something I am also committed to thinking about and considering with you from the outset of our work together. It is inevitable that one person in the relationship, may be keener to attend therapy than the other. I find it is important for us to make sure this is a space for both of you, and to talk about misgivings as well as motivations for attending.
To give you a little bit more information about me, I am a white British, heteronormative man, who has lived and worked in London for my whole life. Prior to completing my family therapy training, I worked as a children's social worker at an inner London local authority. I have also studied towards and completed a MA in Gender Studies. I have worked in numerous contexts as a systemic psychotherapist, with couples and families, including the NHS, CAMHS, Youth Justice and social care.
