Hi, I'm David, I am a Clinical Psychologist who will work with you in a compassionate and honest way to help you reach your goals. There is no doubt that therapy can be challenging and confronting, however on the otherside of this adventure lies a life of greater confidence, improved and more meaningful relationships as well as a deeper understanding of yourself. I believe that while pain is an inevitable part of life, suffering does not need to be. Positive change is possible.

Accepting new clients! I believe passionately in being flexible, tailoring sessions, supporting personal development, growth, and insight with evidence based practices. My work is informed by mindfulness, attachment theory, schema therapy, family systems theory, and science.

Therapy is a safe space to address subtle, chronic, and even complex mental health concerns. Many clients can recognise patterns in their mental health.

Trauma is a deeply personal and complex experience. Often, you may find yourself feeling stuck or unable to move past your trauma. You might feel overwhelmed, sad, anxious, afraid, and/or angry. Trauma can be a deeply isolating experience, and it's not uncommon for you to feel like no one else can truly understand what you are going through. It can sometimes feel like you are carrying a heavy burden that you can't share with others. This may make you feel even more alone and disconnected. Sometimes, you might find it difficult to trust others. You may be grappling with strong emotions like shame, guilt, and self-blame.
