PUBLICATIONS & PRESS
This page brings together my recent and upcoming contributions to news, media and professional platforms. My work focuses on men’s mental health, emotional wellbeing, grief and bereavement, and the experiences of neurodivergent men – themes that sit at the heart of my counselling practice here in Manchester.
Much of my writing explores how men make sense of pressure, identity and connection, and how Manchester’s culture of resilience, honesty and humour shapes those experiences. I aim to offer grounded, accessible commentary that reflects the realities many men face today, both locally and beyond.
If you have thoughts, questions, or would like to discuss an idea for collaboration, media enquiries or future writing, I’d be glad to hear from you. You can reach me any time through the contact form below.

Harmonia Careers: Featured Writing
I’m proud to contribute regularly to Harmonia Careers, where I explore the emotional landscapes that shape so many people’s lives. My writing covers a wide range of themes, including men’s mental health, grief and loss, neurodiversity, identity, the realities of counselling training, and what it truly means to grow as a practitioner.
These articles bring together therapeutic insight, personal reflection and lived experience, offering an honest look at the challenges men face, the pressure to “hold it together”, and the quieter moments that often change us the most.
Alongside my published articles, much of my work happens in ongoing conversations — through my LinkedIn writing and my newsletter, The Quiet Room. These pieces explore the emotional realities men face today: grief, masculinity, belonging, neurodivergence, connection, silence, pressure and the strain so many carry quietly. I write about the lives of men and boys in Manchester and beyond, drawing on research, lived experience and my therapeutic work to give voice to the things many struggle to say out loud.
Topics I regularly explore include:
What young men really think about women and masculinity
How grief shows up in everyday life
Silence, shame and the hidden emotional world of men
Neurodivergent experiences of overwhelm, masking and identity
How connection protects mental health
Why listening changes everything
These reflections have sparked wide engagement across Manchester and the UK, inviting honest conversations about men’s wellbeing, vulnerability and resilience.
