About Dave

Hi, I’m Dave. I’m a counsellor, psychotherapist, CBT therapist, and mindfulness specialist.

I hold a wide range of professional qualifications, including:

• Post-Graduate Diploma with Distinction, in Counselling and Psychotherapy, from Liverpool John Moores University

• Masters of Science degree with Distinction, in Mindfulness, from The University of Aberdeen

I have worked as a wellbeing professional with a wide range of clients and organisations since 2012. This has included extensive work with universities and colleges across the North West of the UK as a teacher, therapist and lecturer.

I’m trained and experienced in supporting people with a wide range of issues. These include anxiety, depression, addiction, eating disorders, ADHD, and long-term health conditions.

I have a specialism in mindfulness and compassion-based therapies. I regularly deliver training and seminars on this topic for universities and organisations, as well as integrating it into my therapy work. Many clients come to me because of my experience of integrating these powerful practices with traditional counselling, psychotherapy, CBT and coaching.

My practice, first and foremost, is to listen to you. I want to understand what’s happening for you. Then we can work together, in collaboration, to find the best way forward.

I do this work because I care about people. I care about our capacity to heal, thrive and fulfil our potential.
