About me

I am a licensed psychotherapist based the UK. I believe that we all have been equipped with the tools needed to create a life for ourselves that we enjoy and feel proud of to lead. However, we sometimes get side-tracked and lose faith in or forget how to utilise those tools.

My role would be to work together with you to locate, tune and activate those latent resources, that will allow you to start living towards the life that you need to lead to be happy.

My interest areas are centred around stress and anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, depression and also around trauma and the negative impact unprocessed trauma can have on us.

I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.

I have been seeing Peter for a few months now and our sessions are extremely helpful. He is a very good listener and shows a great understanding for my situation. He is also very knowledgable and I am grateful for his support.

He is incredibly considerate and can always recognise the core of the problem. He is an excellent listener and remarkably empathetic.

Only 4 sessions with Peter but feeling comfortable and have made a fair amount of movement on specific subjects I've wanted to discuss, has been very helpful and look forward to continuing the therapy sessions
