How I can help

I have extensive clinical experience, spanning over four years. I have a passion for combining my experience in rugby, my background in Sports Coaching and as a Teacher of P.E., to support those from a sporting and elite background. Being an athlete offers many benefits, however, I recognise the limitations as well. I support athletes who like myself experience a career-ending or serious injury, trauma, retirement, transition into the wider world and stress and anxiety related or unrelated to performance. I also have a particular research interest in athletes diagnosed with brain injuries as a result of sport and I am actively involved in supporting and offering my services to those impacted by such a diagnosis.

We will all experience sport differently and I will work with you as an individual as nobody experiences events the same way. I will tailor my approach to ensure that together, we achieve the best results. If you are experiencing something difficult, or are unsure if it is something I can effectively work with, I invite you to reach out. If I feel there are other professionals better suited to support you, I will provide a referral to ensure you get the best chance of becoming the best version of yourself.

My approach

I use Transactional Analysis, an empirically proven effective talking therapy method. You will be invited to consider how your past has informed your current way of being. I will listen, clarify, support and challenge you to be more aware of your way of being. We will explore how to make transformative changes in your life to help you be happier, more fulfilled and settled in the here and now.

My approach is rooted in: empathy, authenticity and collaboration. I believe in creating a safe and non-judgmental space where men can explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences openly. Through exploring past and present patterns together, we can create new ways of being in the world.

What happens next?

If what I have shared resonates with you, and you would like to work together please email me or message me on WhatsApp to arrange a free 30-minute consultation where we will discuss what I can support you with and how I work in more detail. In that call, we will briefly discuss what has brought you to seek therapy, how I may be able to help and whether we would be a good fit. From there, we will then look to schedule our first session together.
