Writing

Alongside my work as an integrative psychotherapist, I write articles, professional commentary and reflective pieces exploring men's mental health, fatherhood, grief, neurodivergence, counselling practice and emotional wellbeing.

Whether I'm writing for professional publications, charities, organisations or the wider public, my aim is not simply to provide information. It's to help people feel understood, think differently and find language for experiences that can often be difficult to describe.

Based in Manchester, I regularly write and speak on men's mental health, fatherhood, grief, neurodivergence and counselling. I welcome enquiries from journalists, editors, podcast hosts and organisations looking for an experienced clinical perspective.
