Who I work with

You do not have to work it out on your own

Many of the people I see are managing a great deal: a demanding career, heavy responsibility, or a period of change that has left them feeling stressed, stuck or not quite themselves.

Others come after a loss, a difficult relationship, or simply a sense that something is not right. Whatever has brought you here, you do not have to work it out on your own.

The approach

Talking first, creative when it helps

My work is rooted in Jungian psychology and a simple belief: that each of us holds more than we are currently living out. We begin with conversation. Where it helps, and only if you would like to, we can also draw on creative ways of working that reach the things words alone sometimes cannot. Always at your pace, and always led by you.

Ways of working

Three quiet ways to meet, each with the same care and privacy.

Who I help

What you might bring

I regularly support people with anxiety and panic, stress and burnout, low mood and depression, confidence and self-esteem, relationship and family difficulties, identity, loneliness, addiction, bereavement, and the effects of trauma or difficult experiences. I work with individuals, couples and groups.

Groups

Grow, connect and heal, together

I facilitate a Men's Sharing Circle, a wellness, discussion and support group that meets in person in Covent Garden, Central London. It is a space for men to reflect and connect alongside others who genuinely relate, built on the principles of group analytic creative psychotherapy. To find out more or to join, please get in touch.

Reflections

“Dan has a very open and calming presence. He allowed a non-judgemental, open atmosphere for me to express what I had been going through, and helped me begin a more positive road I had not thought possible.”

Jim

“A really attentive listener who understood my situation quickly. It felt easy to open up to him.”

anonymous

“Kind, genuine and patient, and willing to ask the harder questions when they matter.”

Reaching out is often the hardest part

Starting therapy can feel like a big step. A free, no-pressure consultation is a simple way to see whether we might work well together.
