About me and my therapy practice

Hi, I’m Fin, a psychotherapist and counsellor with a range of experience. This has led me to working with people across various mental health services, probation, young offenders, and homeless services. I currently oversee a therapy team in a substance use and addiction service, alongside my private practice.

My integrative approach tailors' different techniques to fit each person and situation, addressing both internal and external conflicts and recurring patterns. I believe in the importance of connecting our physical bodies with our emotional states to gain a greater understanding. I also incorporate ideas from philosophy, art, spirituality, and culture, believing that these can help us make sense of our experiences. Additionally, I find that humour can be a valuable part of therapy, bringing lightness to often heavy areas where appropriate.

My aim is to support clients to be inquisitive and interested in themselves and find new ways of seeing and being, fostering compassion and acceptance where possible. My role in this is to support people in moving beyond their stuck points and gain new perspectives to facilitate change. 

A first session with me

 I am open to working with anyone who feels we could be a good match. I offer a free 30-minute initial discussion to explore how we might work together. My fees range from £35-£55 an hour, with some lower short-term discount rates available to reduce the barrier of finances to accessing support.

Feel free to drop me an email to arrange a time to talk.

Availability

My in person work is currently Monday evenings and afternoons only. I do offer online work on a more flexible basis.
