Meet our therapists

As a licensed therapist in the UK with over 5 years of professional experience in both the NHS and private practice, I am dedicated to helping you navigate life's challenges. My approach integrates the best of several therapeutic disciplines, including CBT and REBT, which have proven highly effective in treating anxiety.

My expertise mainly centres around anxiety, self-esteem, ADHD, attachment issues and overcoming abuse. But therapy is about much more than just talking through your problems. It's about building a trusting relationship with a caring, attuned therapist who can help you discover new ways to solve problems, heal old wounds, and transform your life.

Supporting hundreds of clients over the years has been an immense privilege, and I am deeply passionate about guiding people through the emotional impact of relationship struggles, anxiety, loss, and major life transitions like divorce or separation. Therapy has the power to heal, reconnect, and propel you towards a happier, more fulfilling life.

My clients often tell me that my warmth and sense of humour make the counselling process more comfortable and approachable. Sometimes, all it takes is one person to believe in us when we can't believe in ourselves. Let's take that journey together.

Robert is an former director of a nationally recognised leisure business. After many successful years developing the business, a period of extreme stress led to serious health concerns .  Having volunteered for charities such as MIND as a telephone and face to face counsellor, Robert took the decision to take a step back from the business world and has formalised his position as a counsellor.  Robert is trained as an integrative therapist, which means that he is able to work in the way that is most suitable for his client. Robert generally describes his methodology as ”Humanistic with a Humouristic twist”.

Thrive is so happy to have Robert as part of the team, his compassion, acceptance and ability to 'see' people is beautiful.
