About me and my therapy practice
Hi, I’m Scott. I work with young people who feel anxious, overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure about who they are or where they’re heading.
You might be struggling with friendships, family, school stress, identity, or just feeling different from everyone around you. Maybe things feel confusing or like they’re getting too much.
I’m a trained therapist, and my approach is flexible; there’s no one-size-fits-all. We work together in a way that suits you. It’s your space, and we go at your pace.
My school experience was difficult at times, and I wish I had the benefit of counselling for support, so becoming a counsellor and coach has been a powerful and transformative part of my own journey. Now, I use what I’ve learned to support others going through their own struggles, especially young people who might feel like they’re carrying too much, or that no one really gets what they’re going through.
Alongside my private work, I also support students in local schools, so I understand how much pressure school life can bring and how hard it can be to open up. I believe in creating a space where you feel safe to talk about what’s really going on, no pressure, no judgment.
You Might Be Feeling:
- Anxious, low, or overwhelmed
- Confused about your identity or where you fit in
- Under pressure at school or home
- Lonely, even when you’re around people
- Like you're pretending to be someone you’re not
- Unsure how to talk about big thoughts or feelings
- Frustrated, angry, or shut down

About me and my therapy practice
I specialise in supporting people who are feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck and at a crossroads in their career, relationships, identity or searching for their purpose in life. Who may be finding it hard to make sense of where they are now, or where they’re heading.
As an integrative therapist, with a primary focus on the person-centred approach. This means I draw from a range of therapeutic methods, tailoring our work to suit your individual needs. There’s no one-size-fits-all. Together, we’ll find what works best and at a pace that feels right for you.
After many years in the design industry, I found myself questioning my sense of purpose and fulfilment. That search led me to retrain as a counsellor and coach, marking a turning point in my life. Navigating the tension between identity and responsibility became a powerful personal journey - and it’s what laid the foundation for the transitional work I now do with others.
My practice is grounded in empathy, acceptance and a belief in your ability to find your own way - with the right support.
About You
For you, these feelings can create a sense of disconnection from yourself, making it difficult to move forward or feel fulfilled. Often, they’re rooted in deeper influences — such as parental or societal expectations, the pressure to maintain a certain lifestyle, or the belief that it’s too late to change direction.
Some of the Reasons People Work With Me
- Feeling stuck or lost in life
- Navigating identity or purpose shifts
- Relationship issues
- Major life transitions (separation, new parenthood, loss)
- Career changes or work-related stress
- Low self-confidence or self-worth
- Wanting to live more authentically or intentionally
