I have shared a long term relationship with my wife Louisa and have two adult daughters.

 

At 25 I trained as a Psychopaedic Nurse, my underlying aim is to help others. I soon realised Counselling was my vocation starting my training in 1994.

 

Meditation, mindfulness and achieving calm states of mind have always appealed to me. I have developed these qualities with focus from my early 20’s. I conducted research into children's mindfulness applications in 2015 gaining a Master's degree. This experience was a highlight of my professional career.

 

Outside of work my passions involve reading, deeper level conversations, gardening, quiet beaches, love strong coffee, action movies and eating out with family.

 

My words to live by come from Lao-tzu "One who contains content remains content".
