Do you find it difficult to manage your unique brain in your day-to-day life, relationships, or while trying to meet social expectations? Do you wonder if life could feel more fulfilling or less overwhelming? Many fathers today are feeling anxious, overwhelmed, and uncertain about how to manage their roles and still take care of themselves and those around them. Some of us struggle to figure out how to be the father figure we feel we’re supposed to be. Others acknowledge that there are some things that have shaped who we are that we don’t want to pass on to our kids. Ignoring these issues isn’t sustainable, and I believe it shouldn’t be so hard to live a better, happier life, and to raise our children without fear.

I pride myself on a non-judgemental approach that is inclusive and neurodiversity-affirming, ensuring you feel heard and supported as we work towards your goals.

Helping and supporting men to achieve a better and happier life is my passion.
