About me and my therapy practice
Hello, my name is David. I am an integrative therapist based in London.
Sometimes life can feel heavy or confusing, even when we can’t put our finger on why.
You might be carrying emotions or experiences that feel too much to handle alone, or noticing parts of your life that no longer feel right.
Whatever brings you here, you’re very welcome. Taking the first step can feel daunting, but you don’t have to do it alone. I’ll work alongside you to find a way forward that feels right for you.
Why Therapy?
If you’re tired of carrying things alone, or pretending you’re coping when you’re not, therapy can offer a confidential, non-judgemental space to talk openly about what’s going on for you. This in itself can be a great source of relief.
Perhaps you’re feeling ready to explore past experiences in a way that feels safe and supported. I offer a supportive space to explore both past hurts and present challenges, helping you make sense of what may be troubling you or holding you back.
Therapy isn’t about fixing you… It’s about giving yourself the space to understand yourself and reconnect with what’s important.
Our sense of self can shift, and sometimes we lose touch with parts of ourselves that have been overlooked or silenced. In therapy, we can explore those parts, reconnect with what matters to you, and find ways to live more authentically—even as that authenticity changes over time.
Practice description
How do I work?
I take an integrative, holistic approach, looking at mind, body, and making room for the deeper, often hard-to-describe aspects of what it means to be human.
While therapy is ultimately a conversation between us, I can also use creative approaches like metaphor, art, music, movement, or dreams. Going beyond words, I have found these methods can help us gain new perspectives and find fresh ways forward when feeling stuck.
I keep therapy flexible, responding to what feels most useful for you.
