I'm Callum
I trained to become a therapist following a beneficial experience as a client. I know what it is like to sit in that chair for the first time, and I still do it regularly. I have been in practice for over six years, and I have worked with a diverse population of clients around the globe. I am a fully qualified, registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
As a pluralistic practitioner, I believe that there is no a general approach to therapy. I feel that it is my responsibility to adapt my practices to your way of working, and ensure that you remain at the centre of your therapeutic journey. I am trained in the application of a range of therapeutic techniques and theory, integrating aspects of Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Existential Psychotherapy, Psychoanalytic therapies such as Transactional Analysis, and Person-Centred therapy.
​
Accountability, adaptability and transparency are fundamental to my practice. I will regularly check my understanding, ask for you to appraise the work that we do, and I will listen with earnestness and respect should you tell me that I have misunderstood something, that my interventions are off target, or that you would like to try something different. Together, we can create a space that is comfortable, safe, and restorative.
​
Feel free to get in touch if you have any questions.

Excellent therapist. Have been to therapy many times, probably the best experience I had. Provides very good listening skills, leads by example in terms of vulnerability/honesty, provides frameworks to help structure approach towards dealing and thinking about problems. Highly recommended to anyone!
He always takes the time to listen to everything you have to say and takes into consideration all of those points no matter how trivial they may seem. He also has loads of points for me to take away which is always helpful for in-between sessions. I would highly recommend him as it has made me much more comfortable with therapy and not as intimidating as I thought it would be.
Talking to Callum has been immensely helpful for me. He has taken my concerns very seriously and was always willing and able to adjust his therapy suggestions to my needs.
Usually I'm a very closed person and it takes me a while to open up. From the very first session, Cal created such a safe space that allowed me to say what's exactly on my mind. For the first time in a while I felt like I'm being understood and that speaks volumes. I couldn't recommend Cal enough!
