My story
I’ve always been a big believer in the role our daily health and fitness habits play in supporting our health. There was a time though, when that wasn’t enough for me.
I was doing everything I’d always done like training, eating well, meditating, and so on, but I was still struggling mentally with something in my personal life.
I was stressed, anxious, not sleeping, grinding my teeth. And none of these things were helping me move through it. I realised I needed more than physical habits, and this led me to explore therapy.
From the very first session I realised what I’d been lacking. That real, emotional, human support. Therapy gave me the space to unpack what I was carrying, and the tools to navigate it.
It also showed me just how powerful the emotional side of wellbeing really is – and how often it’s overlooked, especially by high performing people.
Why I Became a Therapist
During the time I was having therapy, I was supporting clients through coaching. Helping people create structure, change habits and perform at a high level. But some stayed stuck, even with the best plans in place.
Through my own therapy, I started to understand more about why this was.
In those sessions, we spoke about everything going on in my life — and a big part of that was my work. I realised I was carrying a huge amount of responsibility for 'fixing' the people I worked with. I couldn’t understand why some of them weren’t able to make the changes, even with clear goals and support.
That was when my therapist suggested: “You’re already doing therapy, you just don’t have the training yet.”
That conversation changed my career. And probably my life. It set me on the path I'm on now.
I trained as a psychotherapeutic counsellor and started understanding what really keeps people stuck – the emotional blocks, unmet needs, or ingrained patterns that coaching alone couldn’t shift.
Now, I bring that understanding into every part of my work. Combining therapy and coaching in a way that helps people make meaningful, lasting change.

Work Together
I live in the North East of England with my wife and my little boy.
Outside of work, I’m happiest when I'm outdoors, whether it’s at the beach or out in the countryside. We're very fortunate to have beautiful places right on our door step here in the North East.
I’ve always loved being active and exercise has been a constant in my life. These days it tends to be in the form of gym sessions and the odd run. But when I have time (and fitness) I love to get out trail running.
I enjoy watching most sports but particularly rugby and I’m a big reader, I’ve always got at least one book on the go.
