UK Online Therapy - Specialist support for religious deconstruction, faith transitions, and intentional parenting.
About Me.
Hi, I’m David. I’m an integrative counsellor based in London, working with clients across the UK.
I’m passionate about creating a space where you can be real, reflect deeply, and explore what’s happening beneath the surface.
With a background in pastoral care, the arts, and community work, I’ve spent years supporting those on the edges: people navigating the weight of faith deconstruction, those healing from negative religious experiences, and parents trying to raise children with more intention and less shame than they experienced themselves.
Whether you’re a creative, a deep thinker, or part of the LGBTQIA+ community, I offer an affirming, kind and confidential space for those who have felt out of place in traditional structures.
As a cisgender white man, I’m committed to ongoing self-awareness; reflecting on power, privilege, and accountability is fundamental to how we will work together.
How I Work.
Whatever you’re facing, I facilitate a non-judgemental space.
You’ll be met with empathy, honesty, and curiosity - and supported to understand yourself more fully.
Being an integrative counsellor means I draw from a range of therapeutic approaches, including person-centred, psychodynamic, and CBT-informed models, tailored to your individual needs and pace.
Areas I Often Work With.
-
Creatives or professionals feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or burnt out
-
People navigating relationship patterns that keep causing pain
-
Those re-evaluating faith (faith deconstruction) or leaving religious communities, seeking a sense of identity beyond that world
-
Parents and fathers navigating 'intentional parenting'; breaking old cycles and raising children with intention rather than shame.
-
Individuals exploring identity, meaning, or self-worth
I offer online therapy across the UK, and work with clients in London and beyond.

My qualifications and ethical responsibilities...
I am an Integrative Therapeutic Counsellor (Level 4) based in London, offering confidential, relational, and down-to-earth support for adults seeking meaningful change. My approach draws from person-centred, psychodynamic, and CBT-informed perspectives, allowing me to tailor the work to your individual needs rather than forcing you into a single way of working.
I began my training in 2021 and have completed my clinical training hours at an established London counselling service, working with a wide range of issues including anxiety and depression, racism and discrimination, relationship challenges, identity questions, burnout, grief, parenting and life transitions. Since then, I’ve continued my development through regular supervision, CPD, and a growing private practice where I have worked with clients both online and in-person.
Before qualifying as a therapist, I spent over a decade in roles centred around creative leadership, pastoral care, and community support, where I gained extensive experience working with people through complex emotional, relational, and spiritual challenges. This background taught me how to listen closely, respond without judgement, and support people through long-term personal growth - skills that directly inform my work as a counsellor today.
I hold the following qualifications:
-
Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling
-
Level 3 Certificate in Counselling Skills
-
Introduction to Counselling
-
BA (Hons) Media Production with English & Creative Writing
