BA Hons. in Counselling & Theology (London School of Theology).

Level 2 TQUK (Self-Harm and Suicide Awareness and Prevention).

I understand that we all carry personal struggles, be it grief, trauma, addiction, or difficult relationships. These challenges can often leave us feeling stuck in repetitive, unhelpful patterns, and sometimes it’s hard to see a way forward. This can lead to questioning the meaning of our lives and our sense of purpose.

If you’ve reached a point where you feel it’s time to work through these issues, I’m here to help. As a qualified counsellor, I offer more than just a listening ear. I provide compassionate, professional support tailored to your unique needs, so you can find clarity, healing, and a renewed sense of direction.

I hold a BA (Hons) in Theology and Counselling as well as a Level 2 TQUK qualification in Self-Harm and Suicide Awareness and Prevention. I bring a unique perspective shaped by my experiences growing up within the heavy metal community. Like many, I’ve faced feelings of isolation and the struggle to find where I truly belong. Those experiences have fuelled my passion for creating a safe, non-judgmental space for individuals to explore their emotions and work through life’s challenges.

Let’s work together to navigate the challenges you’re facing, and create lasting change.

My passion is to work with the disenfranchised, those those that don't fit into regular society. Whether you’re part of the heavy metal scene or come from another walk of life, I want to work with you.

Training, qualifications & experience:

I hold a BA (Hons) in Theology and Counselling as well as a Level 2 TQUK qualification in Self-Harm and Suicide Awareness and Prevention.

Prior to university I have worked as a pastor as well as pastoral care.

For the last 3 years I have worked at a counselling centre in Watford and have worked with bereavement, bipolar, anxiety and various other issues, working both short term and long term

This is where we get to know you. I offer the first 20 minute session for free to get an overview of you and your life and you can see whether we are good fit for each other.

Level 2 TQUK (Self-Harm and Suicide Awareness and Prevention).

Healing isn't weakness, it's strength.

I know what it’s like to carry stuff you don’t talk about. The weight of grief, trauma, addiction, shame. It builds over time, and sometimes you don’t even realise how much it’s costing you until something cracks.

Maybe you’re stuck in cycles you can’t seem to break. Maybe you’re numb, angry, or just plain lost. You’re not weak. You’re not broken beyond repair. You’re human, and that pain deserves to be heard.

I’m John. I’m a qualified counsellor with a BA (Hons) in Theology and Counselling and specialist training in suicide awareness and self-harm prevention (TQUK Level 2). But more than that, I’m someone who gets it. I grew up in the heavy metal scene, and like a lot of people in that world, I spent years trying to figure out where I belonged.

My work is about creating a space where you don’t have to pretend. Where you don’t have to explain why you feel what you feel. Where you can start to unpack the things you’ve carried, safely, honestly, and without judgment.

If you’re ready to start doing the work, I’m here to walk it with you.

My passion is to work with the disenfranchised, those those that don't fit into regular society. Whether you’re part of the heavy metal scene or come from another walk of life, I want to work with you.
