About
Hi. My name is Oliver and I work as a counsellor for adults, children, teenagers and couples. I offer face-to-face and online sessions. I also have many years of experience working with people with neurodiversity, such as ADHD and Autism.
Maybe you or your child are experiencing intense anxiety or your emotions feel too much to handle. Perhaps you are struggling with depression, feel lost or stuck, or you are having problems with your personal relationships. Are you neurodiverse and dealing with the challenges that might bring? Do you and your partner need help in how you communicate and how to reconnect?
I offer a safe and confidential space for adults, young people and couples to explore their issues. Sometimes we just need someone to listen to us and to help us develop new perspectives on life’s many challenges. Therapy can also help us to look at ourselves in new ways and to investigate how our ways of dealing with life, and other people in our lives, might be holding us back or causing us pain.
I can also help you to develop a greater understanding of your own anxiety, to look at what's triggering it, how anxiety works in your body and mind, and to share with you some simple, but very effective techniques for overcoming it.
With children and young people I have worked in several primary and secondary schools across the area, as well as working for the charity The Matthew Hackney Foundation which provides free counselling in schools and low cost counselling outside of school hours. I have worked with a wide range of issues, from ADHD and Autism, to trauma, self-esteem and anxiety.
