Feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or disconnected from yourself?

You might notice your body feeling tense, your thoughts racing, or a sense that something isn’t quite right. You may have tried to make sense of it all, but nothing seems to shift.

I offer body-based psychotherapy as a trainee therapist. Together, we explore what’s happening in your body and mind, gently helping you feel more steady and connected.

Many people come to therapy noticing things like:

Your mind doesn’t switch off, even when you want it to
You feel on edge, tense, or unsettled in your body
Emotions feel overwhelming or sometimes hard to access at all
You notice patterns in relationships that you don’t fully understand
You’re trying to “figure things out,” but it doesn’t seem to shift how you feel

These experiences can feel confusing, exhausting, or isolating. You are not alone, and you don’t have to manage them by yourself.

How I can help

In our sessions, we slow things down. Rather than trying to immediately fix or analyse everything, we begin by noticing what is happening in your body and mind in the moment.

This approach can help you to:

Understand your emotional responses more clearly
Feel less overwhelmed or stuck
Build a more steady, supportive relationship with yourself
Respond to situations with more choice, rather than reacting automatically

Over time, this can create space for change to happen naturally and feel more sustainable.

How Sessions Work

1:1 sessions, online or in-person if applicable
50 minutes
Weekly or fortnightly

I offer a calm, confidential space where you can explore whatever feels important at your own pace.

My Training And Approach

I am a psychotherapist in training, working with a body-based (somatic) approach.

I am currently training at the Centre for Counselling and Psychotherapy Education
I work under regular clinical supervision
I follow a professional ethical framework

Being in training means the work is deeply reflected on and supported. You do not need to have the right words, or even know where to start.

A More Personal Note

I know how confusing it can feel when your body reacts strongly, and you are not sure why. For many people, these patterns have developed over time for good reasons.

Part of the work is gently understanding these patterns, rather than fighting them. I create a space where you can explore safely, at your own pace, and begin to reconnect with yourself.

What's next?

If this resonates, you are very welcome to get in touch.

We can arrange a short, no-pressure call to see if working together feels right for you.

Testimonials

I care deeply about helping individuals unveil their inner peace and lead more fulfilling lives

Earlier in the year we invited James to the Year 13 Wellness Day to run a number of meditation classes for the students. James made the whole day. He was calm, encouraging, and accepting of all that was shared. He offered a variety of techniques to help students cope better with feelings of anxiety or overwhelm during the school day. Thanks, James!

I was a little apprehensive at first but I’m so glad I reached out. As a male it’s sometimes difficult to speak openly about vulnerabilities but James immediately put me at ease. James speaks from experience, is passionate about what he does and has provided me with some great guidance and several techniques to take away.

James is superb, creates an easy free space to discuss everything and anything. A hugely personable person, James’s approach and advice has been hugely beneficial to me. Having not taken anything similar to this before any concerns or hesitance on effect were immediately removed. Great service, great guy.

James (UK)

Sports industry

James & I met regularly online to discuss his personal mindfulness practice, his assignments for his training and his experience of going deeper into mindfulness practice as his training progressed. I found James to be a highly intelligent, articulate and engaging mentee. He already had a long standing meditation practice and was committed to developing his own practice, as well as learning how to teach mindfulness skillfully to others. He is a sincere, empathetic and sensitive person who I feel would be ideally suited to your course both on his personal journey and as a way to provide skillful healing to those who need it. He is an honest, authentic and quite deep person who I feel will be a great participant in your intake for this training.
