Therapy Services
Located in a quiet, private therapy room in a period house in Penylan, Cardiff. My practice covers four key areas:
Couples counselling, individual therapy, men’s mental health and LGBTQIA+ identity.
Below, you’ll find more information on each.
-
Relationships can be a profound source of connection, meaning and security, but they also expose our deepest vulnerabilities. Over time, couples can find themselves caught in patterns of conflict, distance, resentment or uncertainty that neither partner intended.
Therapy offers a space to understand what lies beneath those patterns. Together, we can explore recurring arguments, emotional disconnection, intimacy and sexual difficulties, trust, infidelity, or the challenges that come with life transitions and change.
Whether you are hoping to repair your relationship, navigate a separation, or simply understand each other differently, our work is not about deciding who is right or wrong. It is about developing a deeper understanding of yourselves, each other, and the relationship you have created together.
Sometimes that understanding leads to renewed connection. Sometimes it leads to a different way forward. In either case, the aim is greater clarity, compassion and choice.

Individual therapy can support you with a wide range of difficulties, including:
Anxiety, Stress & Burnout
Sometimes life can feel overwhelming. You may find yourself constantly worrying, running on empty, struggling to switch off, or feeling as though you’re simply getting through each day.
Therapy offers a space to slow down and make sense of what’s happening. Together, we can explore the pressures you’re under, understand the patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and find ways of responding that feel more manageable and sustainable.
Trauma & Difficult Experiences
Some experiences stay with us long after they happen. Others are still unfolding, leaving us trying to make sense of something we never expected to face.
You may be living with the impact of something from the past, struggling after a recent experience, or noticing that certain situations continue to affect how you feel, relate to others or see yourself. Therapy can offer a safe space to understand what has happened and how it continues to shape you.
Grief, Loss & Life Changes
Loss can take many forms. You may be grieving someone who has died, the end of a relationship, changes in your health, family or work, or a life that has not turned out as you expected.
Therapy offers a space to talk openly about what has changed, make sense of what you’re feeling, and begin to find a way of living alongside the loss.

A lot of men become experts at keeping things together on the outside, even when they're struggling on the inside. Therapy offers a space where you don't have to do that.
Whether you're feeling stressed, stuck, overwhelmed, or simply not quite yourself, it can help you understand what's going on and find a way forward that feels right for you.
-
Figuring out who you are – or living with the feeling that who you are might not be fully accepted – can be exhausting. Questions of identity, belonging, relationships, family, or simply where you fit in can have a profound impact on how you experience yourself and the world around you.
Therapy offers a space where you can bring all of that without needing to explain, justify, or edit yourself first. Together, we can explore whatever feels important, at a pace that feels right for you.
