You’re here because something isn’t working. There’s something going on in your life you don’t understand or feel you can’t handle on your own.
The reason we struggle to fix these things ourselves, and the reason why we turn to therapy is simple: we’re complicated. Human dynamics are complicated.
The past, the present, our parents and our roles as parents, fears of rejection and fears of inadequacy.
Even how we process these complications are complicated, with differences between what we say or pretend we want and what we
actually want or even are afraid to want.
It all gets so very difficult, so very quickly, and sometimes talking to a professional can help. Yet my underlying position is clear: while I can ask the questions
you are the expert in you, you hold all the keys, you have all the answers.

After many visits to various therapist and not feeling anything was achieved. From the very first visit with Sean, I knew this man knew his stuff, I had more feedback in one visit than anyone I’d ever seen and had utter confidence that I could be helped. I never thought I’d ever find the answers I was hoping to find. I have finished with such a sense of understanding to who I am. Can’t recommend enough.

Having never considered the need to talk, or have someone to listen, I arrived at the point where it was time. After years of trying to understand a complicated life, Sean helped me come to terms with my past, giving me the tools I need for the future. Helping me pick apart my childhood, past relationships, and finding out who I am as a brother, father, partner, and as a human. For me, Sean is a guide, guiding me so I now understand myself.

My partner & I went to see Sean for some couples therapy and found this extremely helpful for our relationship. Sean is great at getting to the core of your issues and helping you to understand this on a deeper level which has enabled us to communicate and understand each other much better than we ever have before. Highly recommend his services!

I have now spent over twenty-five years working as an psychotherapist and educator. I studied psychology at Edinburgh University, hold a Masters in Psychotherapy and Diplomas in both Humanistic Integrative Counselling and CBT. I have written a book on relationship counselling, developed and created Pattern-Based Couple Therapy and am currently finalising a theoretical model synthesising humanistic and behavioural approaches to individual therapy.
But does any of that really matter? In all honesty, probably not. At the end of the day, all that matters is that we can work together. That we can connect and shift what is going wrong to something that is going right or at least going less wrong.
 
 
I see clients at two practices: one in Bournemouth that also serves Poole, Christchurch and Dorset residents; the other in Belgravia, five minutes walk from Sloane Square, for Chelsea, Notting Hill, Mayfair and Fulham residents. I also see US and international clients online.
I provide a confidential and welcoming space in which you can talk about whatever is on your mind. I have appointments for both during the day and evening, and also Saturday.
 
 
 
If you wish to proceed we can either go with a free 15 minute introductory audio / video call or we can jump in and book an initial consultation.
After that we can then take it from there. Please note for individuals / couples in a period of crisis a short conversation may not be appropriate.
Any questions please email me.

They don't provide all the answers however they can be a useful starting point.
