John is fantastic and really helps me open up and see things clearly . Couldn’t rate him higher

Reviewed March 2025

John is a very lovely person: he listens to my problems without giving any judgment even when that would seem appropriate. Instead he patiently leads me to find my own answers even tho that may be painful and hard to do.

More about John

  • 4 years' experience
  • Male
  • BACP

As a counsellor, I offer a warm, non-judgmental space where you are invited to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences at your own pace. Rooted in humanistic principles, my work is grounded in the belief that each person has an innate capacity for growth, healing, and self-understanding when provided with the right conditions—empathy, authenticity, and unconditional positive regard.

Alongside this, I draw from psychodynamic traditions, which means we may explore how past experiences, early relationships, and unconscious patterns influence your current emotional life. Through compassionate exploration, we work together to bring greater awareness to what may be hidden beneath the surface, enabling deeper insight and lasting change.

I value the therapeutic relationship as a central part of the healing process—an evolving space where trust and safety allow you to encounter yourself more fully. Whether you’re facing anxiety, loss, relationship challenges, or a sense of being stuck or overwhelmed, I will walk alongside you with curiosity, respect, and care.

Together, we aim not only to reduce distress but also to foster a richer understanding of who you are—so that you can live more freely, more fully, and more in tune with your authentic self.

About online counseling

Affordable.

Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
