Promoting positive Mental Health & Well-being.
the heart's behind our practice
Real People. Real Experience. Real Support.
Our story begins with a shared belief: meaningful mental health support comes not just from training, but from truly understanding what it’s like to struggle. As a husband-and-wife team with both lived experience and over 15 years of clinical expertise, we’ve walked alongside the challenges many of our clients face. That’s why we’ve built a practice that’s rooted in empathy, grounded in evidence, and shaped by real life — not just textbooks.
Meet David
"Expert care shaped by real life — not just theory."
David’s journey into psychotherapy has been shaped by a diverse and meaningful career. He began in the Royal Navy, serving aboard submarines, before transitioning into civilian life and founding a successful IT startup in the North West. The company grew to employ over 100 staff across six locations before being sold in the late 1990s. His passion for growth and learning also led him to earn both his CAA and FAA pilot’s licences.
Later in life, David chose to retrain in psychotherapy, driven by a desire to help others navigate the kinds of challenges he’d faced himself. With over 15 years of clinical expertise, he now works as an accredited psychotherapist and clinical supervisor, supporting individuals from all walks of life — including veterans, business leaders, and neurodivergent clients.
David’s own lived experience with adult ADHD, diagnosed later in life, gives him unique insight into the day-to-day realities of neurodivergence. It allows him to connect with clients on a deeper level and offer mental health support that is both practical and empathetic.
Clients often describe David as humorous, calm, grounded, and easy to talk to especially being Irish - someone who brings not just expertise, but authenticity and care to the work he does.
Meet Rebecca
“Support that meets you where you are.”
Rebecca began her career in strategic HR and talent acquisition, working with start-ups, non-profits, and global brands. Supporting individuals and teams through change gave her deep insight into how people grow, adapt, and thrive during life’s transitions.
Alongside her professional path, Rebecca faced her own challenges — raising three children as a single mother, living with chronic pain, navigating neurodiversity, trauma, and complex grief. These experiences shaped her deep empathy and ability to connect with others on a real and human level.
Driven by a passion to help others, she retrained as a psychotherapist alongside her husband. Now an accredited practitioner, she brings together her clinical expertise and lived experience to offer tailored, compassionate mental health support.
She supports women, neurodivergent clients, and those navigating grief, life transitions, or emotional overwhelm — helping them feel heard, grounded, and more in control.
Clients often describe Rebecca as warm, intuitive, and down-to-earth — someone who offers a calm, supportive space to explore challenges and create meaningful change.
