Hello, I’m Will.

I'm a humanistic counsellor and I believe that counselling is very versatile. You may need a vital support to manage a crisis, maybe you want to change or improve your life, break patterns or habits, or perhaps you want to live more mindfully.

Therapy is unique to each person, and how I work changes in response to you, (that's the 'humanistic' bit) the most important thing is our relationship. 

I work with keen attention to curiosity and compassion which can support the expansion of your awareness to change your life in the direction you want it to go in and hold your issues with the care it requires. As we build a relationship I offer ideas, exercises, theories, or challenges to integrate the work into your daily life.

I want to make sure you get the most out of your time with me.

Why am I a therapist?

When I was growing up I didn’t know how to handle many of the issues I encountered, I struggled for a long time to enjoy my life, and I didn't know I could change this.

Therapy supported me to break my historic cycles and patterns. I now live the life I want to lead, rather than the life I felt was given to me. It is now my privilege to offer this to others.

How do I work?

I work humanistically with the interconnected nature of the mind, body and more. I believe you are the expert on you, and my job is to understand you from your perspective. I can offer perspective, challenges, exercises, ideas and theories to support you to grow or change. 

I am also influenced by Jung and Jungian shadow work. 'Shadow' meaning the parts of us we hide, repress, and deny that often drive the behaviours and patterns in our lives.

Practically, our work may involve talking, working with body language and movement, and the connection between mind, body and more to understand your issues. These can be practical exercises, as well as takeaway ideas to try in your life outside of our sessions.

I want you to feel capable to deal with those issues without me, in your own way. Autonomy is very important in my practice, and everything I offer is an invitation.

Do I specialise in anything?

I am open to meeting anyone. 

I have a passion for men's work, men’s mental health, male identity, & work around gender.

You can't understand masculinity without femininity and beyond, so this is useful regardless of your sex or gender. 

For example many of my non-binary and female clients have experiences that relate to men/masculinity and this approach has been transformative for these clients.

Where do we begin?

To begin we would meet for an initial session of 50 minutes.

Counselling sessions with me would last 50 minutes. See my website for more info on pricing, and about me and my practice.

I am based in Cambridge, UK, at 8AKP on Kings Parade.

To begin we would meet for an initial session of 50 minutes, and decide there if we wish to work together, and how.

Whether you’ve had therapy before or if this is your first time, an initial session enables us to get to know one another and assess if we are the right fit. This session includes me asking a range of questions about your life, your past, and your habits. This isn’t a standard therapy session, more of an introduction.

To work with you effectively, I need to understand where you are coming from, why you are seeking therapy, and whether we fit. Equally as important, this is a chance for you to get a sense of me, and if you feel I am right for you.

I may ask you to fill out some forms prior to, or during this session. These will be explained fully when sent.

Initial sessions cost £42.
