​​I grew up in England, where tough love and “man up” were just part of the culture. I grew up always feeling I was somehow different from everyone around me - and discovered late in life I really was - finding out I was neuro-diverse and have a brain that doesn't work like most of them do.

​

I’ve been married, divorced, remarried, and I’ve raised a family. Life’s handed me some hard knocks—including a personal tragedy that nearly took someone I love. It brought me to my knees. I felt crushed, lost, and at one point, I was ready to give up on life entirely.

​

But I got help—and that changed everything. Finding the right support not only helped me survive, it gave me a sense of purpose. Now, I help others do the same. It’s what keeps me grounded, and smiling, every day. I now also write children's books in my spare time, I'm currently working on books to help adults and children understand mental health and neuro-diversity. You can find my first book, Groar the last Dinosaur on Amazon.

​

If you’re feeling like you have to hold it all together for everyone else, but deep down you’re falling apart—I get it. If that inner voice never lets up, constantly criticising and leaving you feeling miserable or alone—you’re not the only one. Maybe you feel different from the people around you, or like you’re stuck in a cycle with no way out.

​

Here’s the truth: you’re not broken, and you’re not alone. Things can change. There is a way forward—and I’m here to help you find it. I use straightforward, guy-friendly tools and strategies to help you get unstuck, take back control, and start feeling like yourself again. That includes managing stress, dealing with relationship issues, making sense of anger or sadness, and improving communication—at work, at home, and with yourself. No jargon. No judgment. Just real conversations that lead to real change.

​

Give me a call. I know how hard it can be to ask for help—especially when you need it most. But if you're ready, I’m here, and I’m easy to talk to.
