Ian was fantastic as a therapist. He helped me realise a lot about myself and helped me overcome my doubts and fears. He helped me to find others ways to overcome issues and gave his honest objective opinion (at my request) and never steered me in one particular way. I would highly recommend Ian for anyone struggling with life in general. He really helped me through my darkest time in life and helped me get back on track.

Ian was friendly and made me feel very comfortable. Lots of helpful insights already after only one session. We have a clear plan for our next few sessions which is really helpful.

Ian is a brilliant therapist, as someone with BPD, I struggle with emotional highs and lows, I find that Ian is extremely skilled at taking the volatility out of my emotions and being able rationalise my thinking in a way that doesn’t make me feel like an out of control freight train. He is personable, empathetic and listens closely, all of which are characteristics of a great therapist. I highly recommend therapy with Ian if you are looking to get to understand and/or improve your current mindset and gain insight into what you’re thinking/feeling with someone who is an expert at what they do.

After 5 sessions with Ian, I feel that I am getting to grips with the issues that brought me to seek counselling. Ian is professional, friendly and empathetic. He is a very good active listener and he makes insightful comments. He has helped so much and I never imagined that we could achieve so much in only 5 sessions. Thank you very much Ian
