Integrative Therapy
Therapy that adapts as you do.
Integrative Therapy blends several different approaches to create something flexible and personal. Together we find what’s most useful - sometimes that means learning new ways to handle familiar situations, other times slowing down to uncover the stories behind your thoughts and feelings.
The process evolves with you, helping you stay balanced and supported without being confined to one approach.
For example
You’ve tried to put your finger on what’s wrong and can’t land on one thing - work, sleep, a short fuse at home, all tangled together. You don’t need a label before you start; you just need somewhere to start, and we shape the work from there.

Humanistic Therapy
An approach that begins with the belief that you already have what you need to grow.
Humanistic Therapy focuses on your potential rather than your problems. It’s about reconnecting with your values, needs, and capacity for change - with the relationship between you and me at its heart. Built on empathy, trust, and honesty, this space helps you explore safely and move toward confidence, clarity, and self-acceptance.
Person-Centred Therapy and Restorative Approaches are humanistic approaches.
For example
You’ve spent years being the dependable one - the provider, the fixer, the calm head - and somewhere along the way you lost track of what you actually want. Nothing has collapsed, but you feel flat, going through the motions, unsure who you are underneath the roles.
Person-Centred Therapy
Sometimes, what you need most is space to be heard.
In Person-Centred Therapy, you set the pace and direction. I won’t tell you what to do or analyse you from a distance; I’ll listen with empathy and curiosity, helping you make sense of things and rebuild trust in your own judgement.
Over time, that kind of open, honest space can help you feel clearer, more confident, and more at ease with yourself.
For example
You’ve never really said any of this out loud. You don’t want advice or a plan yet - you want space to hear yourself think, without being fixed, judged, or talked over. Just being properly listened to would be a start.
Might suit you if -
- 01
You want space to talk without pressure, direction, or advice.
- 02
You want to be listened to and understood.
- 03
You’re rebuilding confidence or self-trust.
- 04
You prefer a slower, more reflective process.
Might suit you if -
- 01
You want clear, structured tools for managing thoughts and emotions.
- 02
You’re dealing with anxiety, low mood, or stress.
- 03
You prefer practical, goal-focused sessions.
- 04
You want to learn to manage your reactions.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
When it feels like your internal monologue is running the show.
CBT helps you understand how your thoughts, feelings, and actions feed each other. You’ll work with me to experiment with new ways of thinking and responding, trying things out between sessions to see what works for you.
It’s an active, practical approach that helps you feel more in control of your mind - not at its mercy. Over time, you’ll learn to face challenges with more clarity, calm, and confidence.
For example
You lie awake replaying a conversation from work, certain you got it wrong, and carry that dread into the next morning. The thoughts land like facts, and they’re quietly steering how you act - what you avoid, how short you are with people, whether you bother trying at all.
Focused Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (FACT)
Making peace with what you feel - and moving forward anyway, in a handful of sessions.
FACT is a brief, focused form of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. Rather than an open-ended programme, it concentrates on one specific problem - helping you make room for difficult thoughts and feelings instead of fighting them, and reconnect with what matters to you.
The aim is steady, realistic movement toward your values in a short number of sessions, not perfection.
For example
One thing keeps knocking you off course - the panic that hits before a presentation, or a grief you keep pushing down so you can function. You don’t want to unpack your whole history; you want to deal with that, specifically, and get back to living the way you mean to.
Might suit you if -
- 01
You want to live more in line with your values, not your fears.
- 02
You’re tired of trying to silence your inner monologue.
- 03
You want a short, focused piece of work rather than an open-ended one.
- 04
You like practical strategies you can apply in real life.
Might suit you if -
- 01
You have one clear problem or decision you want to work through.
- 02
You don’t want to commit to an open-ended programme of sessions.
- 03
You want something practical you can act on the same day.
- 04
You’d rather try one focused conversation than wait for a block to start.
Single-Session Therapy (SST)
One focused session. One clear problem. Something you can act on the same day.
SST doesn’t assume you need a programme - it assumes you have something specific to work on right now. Each session is treated as though it may be the only one, which keeps the conversation focused on what matters most to you and what you’ll leave with.
That’s not a shortcut - it’s a deliberate way of taking the time seriously, while still leaving the door open for further sessions if you want them.
For example
You’ve got a decision weighing on you this week - a relationship, a job offer, a boundary you keep meaning to set - and it’s going round in your head. You don’t need a course of therapy; you need one focused conversation to think it through clearly and walk away with a next step.
Restorative Justice / Restorative Approaches
Making sense of harm - caused or experienced - and finding a way to move forward.
Restorative approaches focus on the impact of harm, whether you’ve caused it or been affected by it, and what’s needed to put things right. Rather than dwelling on blame, the work centres on accountability, understanding consequences, and rebuilding trust.
This approach is often used alongside referrals from Out of Court Resolution teams, community safety partnerships, and restorative justice practitioners.
For example
Something happened - maybe an arrest, maybe an out-of-court resolution - and saying sorry hasn’t settled it, for you or for anyone else affected. You want to understand the real impact of what you did and actually put things right, rather than just wait for it to blow over.
Might suit you if -
- 01
You’ve been referred following an Out of Court Resolution, caution, or community resolution.
- 02
You want to understand the impact of your actions, on yourself or others.
- 03
You’re ready to take responsibility and move forward, not just relive the incident.
- 04
You want practical, accountability-focused work rather than open-ended talk therapy.
Might suit you if -
- 01
You want practical skills and tools rather than open-ended exploration.
- 02
You’re working on assertiveness, boundaries, or confidence.
- 03
You want to build momentum toward a specific goal.
- 04
You prefer a more directive, coaching-style approach.
Therapeutic Coaching
Building the skills to hold your ground, not just talk about it.
Therapeutic coaching is a more directive, skills-based way of working. It’s aimed at building assertiveness, resilience, and stronger boundaries - the kind of male-focused, practical work that helps you carry yourself differently at work, at home, and in your relationships.
Sessions concentrate on where you want to build momentum right now, rather than exploring background history in depth.
For example
You keep saying yes when you mean no, get talked over in meetings, and go home wound up about it. Maybe you’ve lost sight of what you’re actually working toward. You don’t want to dig through your childhood - you want to build the confidence, boundaries, and sense of direction to handle it differently, starting now.
