Relationships and separation
Partners, family, divorce, conflict, communication or making sense of a relationship that's changing.
Counselling gives you regular time to talk openly about what is happening in your life, with someone who will listen and take you seriously without judgement. You don't need to have everything worked out before getting in touch.
There might be something specific you want to explore, such as a relationship, work, anxiety or a change in your life. Or you might know that things aren't quite how you'd like them to be, without being sure why.
Counselling offers the chance to spend time with those experiences rather than having to put them aside. We can begin wherever makes sense to you and see what emerges as we work together.
There is no set script for what you should talk about, and no expectation that you need to reach a particular conclusion.
The work isn't limited to a particular issue. These are some of the things men bring to counselling.
Partners, family, divorce, conflict, communication or making sense of a relationship that's changing.
Worry, pressure, self-doubt or thoughts that are difficult to put down.
Responsibility, expectations, uncertainty, redundancy or feeling stretched by work.
Changes in motivation, enjoyment, confidence or how you feel about everyday life.
Questions about who you are, what matters to you or what comes next.
Bereavement, becoming a parent, ageing, retirement or a change you didn't expect.
My work is humanistic and centred on the relationship we build. I won't arrive with a programme to put you through or tell you how you should live.
Instead, I'll listen carefully, ask questions and pay attention to what matters to you. At times we might look at familiar patterns, what you're experiencing in the present or how you understand yourself and your relationships. We work at a pace that feels useful, allowing space for things that aren't immediately clear.
You can make an enquiry without committing to sessions. Here's what happens next.
Use the form at the bottom of this page. You can share as much or as little as you want at this stage.
We can talk briefly about what you're looking for, how I work and any questions you have.
If you'd like to go ahead, we'll arrange a 50-minute session online or in person, depending on what suits you and availability.
Per 50-minute counselling session.
Sessions are available online across the UK and in person in Brighton & Hove. We can discuss a suitable time and whether regular weekly sessions would work for you.
You can begin with a free 15-minute introductory call. It's an opportunity to ask about counselling and decide whether you'd like to take things further.
I'm a qualified humanistic counsellor and a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I work with adults in Brighton & Hove and online across the UK.
I started MEN TALK TOO because I wanted men to have a place where they could talk openly about their lives, whether they're facing something particularly difficult or want time to understand themselves better.
My approach is relational and collaborative. I take an interest in how you experience the world, and in what we can discover through talking together.
No. Some people come with something very specific in mind. Others start with a feeling that something needs attention. We can work out where to begin together.
No. I offer humanistic integrative counselling, drawing on person-centred, Gestalt and existential approaches. My work is conversational and relational rather than a structured CBT programme.
Yes. I offer online counselling across the UK, as well as in-person sessions in Brighton & Hove.
Sessions last 50 minutes and cost £65. I also offer a free 15-minute introductory call.
No fixed number of sessions is required. We can talk about what you're hoping for and review how the work is going as we continue.
Counselling is confidential, with some important legal and safeguarding limits. I'll explain these before we begin, so you know how confidentiality works.
I'll reply to your enquiry so we can discuss availability, arrange an introductory call or answer any questions you have. Sending the form doesn't commit you to booking sessions.
You can ask a question, arrange a free introductory call or enquire about starting counselling. There's no need to decide everything now.
