I've been working through some VERY intense traumas (different forms)/lack of self worth/severe depression etc, with Joe for 1 year and 6 months. I genuinely cannot express how grateful I am to Joe for everything he's helped me with. Yes, some of it was REALLY hard to work through, but Joe helped give me the advice, strength and confidence to be able to face every single one of my own personal demons head-on. Joe is kind, considerate, patient, caring, empathic, totally non-judgemental, can help gently steer/direct conversation as required... I've been seeing all different therapists/counsellors/psychiatrists since I was young, and no-one has ever come near to how comfortable I felt about opening up to Joe, nor did I feel I ever had their true respect; as if I was just a number they need to work through. I have NEVER had that impression with Joe! It's been an incredible journey, and now I'm at the end I have to admit I'm left with a very bitter-sweet feeling. I will genuinely miss having Joe as part of my life. Joe, if you read this (and I'm sure you'll know who this is), you'll forever be in my daily thoughts and thanks. Yes, I put a lot of the work in as well, but there's no way I could've gone through SO MUCH as I did with you without your support. I came to you, a totally broken and shattered shell of a man, and with your help I'm finally complete again. Once more, infinite thanks, and namaste. A true angel amongst mortals.

Joe has been a wonderful therapist over the last 2.5 years. After COVID, I really had a lot to work through in regards to personal development and I didn't know where to start. With thanks fo Joe, I come out of regular therapy a happier, healthier and far more rounded person. Joe is a great listener, compassionate, and holds a grounded and calm space. I have really appreciated his guidance and support, and if you are looking into taking the leap, and finding a counselling space, I can't reccomend booking in some sessions with Joe enough.

Joe is a fantastic therapist that I've been working with for a while now. He has been a huge help for me during my recovery alongside addressing trauma from my childhood and teen years. I find our weekly sessions really beneficial, especially as he has provided me with multiple tools of how to address certain issues in my life. He gives me plenty of time in our sessions to talk about anything that's on my mind, and never makes me feel rushed. Would highly recommend Joe if you're looking for an understanding therapist who really will make a difference to your life. Thank you Joe!

Honestly cannot put into words how much joe has helped me though my struggles. I wouldn’t be the person I am today without help from this man, I could not recommend him enough. Each day coming off...

Honestly cannot put into words how much joe has helped me though my struggles. I wouldn’t be the person I am today without help from this man, I could not recommend him enough. Each day coming off a session with Joe I always feel so much better just being able to talk to a professional who actually listens and try’s to understand you. Thank you so much for everything Joe
