A Compassionate and Non-Judgemental Space to Explore What Matters to You

David offers a warm, accepting and confidential space where you can talk openly about whatever is on your mind, free from judgement or prejudice. He believes that meaningful therapy begins with a relationship built on trust, understanding and collaboration.

Working together at your own pace, David aims to help you feel safe enough to explore who you are, understand the choices you make and reflect more deeply on the meaning of your experiences, relationships and life as a whole. His approach is thoughtful, compassionate and centred around your individual needs.

Experience Supporting a Wide Range of Emotional Difficulties

David has extensive experience working as a counsellor in both private practice and the voluntary sector. He has supported people facing a variety of challenges, including:

Anxiety and stress
Depression and low mood
Relationship and interpersonal difficulties
Low self-esteem and self-worth
Sexuality and identity concerns
Emotional loss and life transitions

He also has significant experience working with a nationally recognised bereavement charity, helping people navigate complex grief, loss and the profound emotional impact that bereavement can bring.

Professional Qualifications and Training

David holds a Postgraduate Diploma (PGDip) in Phenomenology and Psychotherapy and is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).

As a member of the Southern Association for Psychotherapy and Counselling, he continues his professional development through ongoing training as an existential analytic psychotherapist. His commitment to continued learning ensures that his work remains thoughtful, ethical and responsive to the needs of those he supports.

A Background in the Creative Arts

Before training as a therapist, David spent much of his professional life in the creative arts. He trained as an actor during the 1990s, earning a BA (Hons) in Drama, Speech and Movement. Over the years, he worked as an actor, comedy writer and voice-over artist.

His creative background informs the empathy, curiosity and understanding he brings to therapeutic work, recognising that every person's story is unique and deserves to be heard with care and respect.
