Hi, I’m Steve — a qualified pluralistic psychotherapist/counsellor, which basically means I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. I draw on different types of therapy, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), psychodynamic, and person-centred counselling, so we can work in a way that suits you. In practice, that just means I can adapt how I work depending on what you need — not the other way around. It’s flexible, collaborative, and focused on what feels most helpful in the moment.

​

My aim as a counsellor is be down to earth, warm and authentic. I don’t do generic advice or life hacks — though I’ll admit to the occasional bit of psychobabble if it helps us make sense of something together. Mostly, I’m here to offer a safe, supportive and non-judgemental space where you can talk freely and feel genuinely heard.

​

My path into counselling started with my own struggles. During a difficult time in my life, talking things through with a counsellor helped shift my perspective — it gave me clarity, and a sense of strength I didn’t know I had. That experience had a big impact on me and eventually led me to do this work myself.

​

Now, I get to walk alongside people as they make sense of what’s going on in their lives. I believe counselling is about you — your story, your struggles, and your hopes — and my role is simply to walk alongside you. Whether we’re exploring deeper patterns, working through something specific, sitting with your thoughts and feelings or just trying to make sense of the ups and downs of life.

​

I offer sessions in-person, online, or by phone — whatever feels most comfortable for you. However we meet, you’ll find a calm, supportive space where you can talk freely and be met with empathy and care.
