Client Experiences
I developed a warm and trusting relationship with Tony. Although there were tears, the depths of sorrow and heartache manifested into realisation, tears of laughter and abundant joy.

I found Tony's approach both relaxing, gentle and supportive. He definitely provided a safe space for me to explore and reflect more deeply. He had a keen interest in what I had to say and his ability to reflect back to me has confirmed it is time to reignite my passions and move forward.

I am no longer ashamed who I am and as a result I have learnt so much about myself and my purpose. These positive changes haven’t gone unnoticed by my family either and that shows that the sessions have really made a difference in my day to day life. I was initially quite apprehensive about having a male therapist, in part because of my awful history with most of the men in my life. Well, I was mistaken!

Tony created the ultimate 'safe space', where there was no judgement and I could work on all the interlinked trauma together with him and process it. By the end of the sessions, Tony certainly felt like a friend and I am forever thankful for all of his hard work to get me back to feeling 'normal'.
CR
Tony's sessions allowed me to open my mind and soul. With having the barrier of my Tourette Syndrome which made me isolated from the world, Tony helped me to believe and I dropped the fear and I am ready for some new challenges.

Words are hard to describe the high praise I have for Tony.
In the past, I have tried many therapists that lacked in one or more ways, and I had very little hope. But then, when I started having talking therapy with Tony, my perception and understanding of what therapy can look like changed dramatically.
Although I had very little confidence in men and in how therapy can help, he helped me go through some of the hardest moments and always knew exactly what to say and do to help me get back to my calm place and get over all the challenges.

Working with Tony has been a genuinely positive and meaningful experience for me. From the very beginning, he created a warm, safe, and welcoming space where I felt comfortable being myself. His calm, open, and non-judgemental approach made it much easier for me to talk honestly about things I had been carrying for a long time, and I always felt truly listened to and understood during our sessions.
Tony supported me through therapy related to binge eating, and the work we did together was incredibly helpful. Using IFS (Internal Family System), he helped me explore the different parts within me with compassion and curiosity, which gave me a much deeper understanding of why I was turning to food to self-soothe. Instead of feeling ashamed of those behaviours, I began to understand them in a more gentle and insightful way, which was a really important part of my healing.

What stood out to me most was the gentleness of his presence. I brought difficult feelings and vulnerable parts of myself into the space, and he held them with such steady care that even my most hesitant, sceptical parts could finally breathe. He had a way of balancing structure with warmth, professionalism with real humanity. It never felt heavy handed or clinical, it felt real, meaningful, and deeply human. Tony is also incredibly perceptive. His questions were always gentle, yet they opened doors I didn’t know were there.

I honestly did not know what to expect when I started therapy. I had tried therapy in the past and had not found it particularly helpful, so I think I came into this experience feeling quite sceptical and probably a little negative.
However, my experience with Tony has been completely different. This journey has touched parts of me that I did not even realise needed healing. It helped me understand myself on a much deeper level and gave me the space to explore emotions and experiences that I had carried for a very long time.
