Peter Dutton
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychotherapist, Life Coach, Sports Performance Psychologist. Registered BACP Member
I am an experienced Psychotherapist, Sports Performance Psychologist, and High Performance coach, working with individuals who want to perform, lead, and live at a higher level while protecting their wellbeing.
My work spans high-performing environments, including professional athletes performing at the highest level, CEOs, Founders, MDs, and individuals navigating pressure, transition, and identity challenges. I support clients to strengthen focus, confidence, emotional regulation, and decision-making, particularly in moments where performance, responsibility, and personal life intersect.
Alongside performance work, I have a strong background in working with couples, helping partners improve communication, rebuild trust, deepen emotional connection, and navigate conflict more effectively. I believe strong relationships are a foundation for both personal wellbeing and professional performance. I have extensive experience supporting adolescents, adults, and couples with anxiety, stress, overthinking, panic, addiction, low confidence, relationship difficulties, loss, and major life transitions. This dual perspective allows me to work not just on surface performance, but on the underlying psychological patterns that sustain long-term success and resilience.

Gordon Wax BA HONS MBACP
Counsellor/Therapist, Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist
Hi, my name is Gordon. Welcome!
I’m am a fully qualified psychotherapist, working both online and in person from my private consulting room in Manchester England. I was born and raised in London. Personal therapy helped me to untangle my relationship with myself and my emotions from others.
The world alone is a chaotic place to manage our own unknowns, anxieties, and traumas. I understand that everyone experiences the world in different ways, so unique problems require bespoke responses.
Our lives are constantly creating new beginnings, change, and endings, so it’s natural to feel emotions strongly, think differently and respond atypically. I help clients explore all spheres of their life to help them build hope and to cope.

Robert Thompson
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, UKCP, MBACP.
The modern world can be a frantic place, one where demands are constant and space is limited. Therapy offers you a chance to pause and take stock, to become more aware of your feelings and to re-examine the choices you are making in a reflective and constructive way.
I aim to provide a supportive relationship within which you can safely explore and better understand yourself and your relationships. I take an active role in helping you investigate a broader range of options than at first may present themselves. Therapy invites you to expand the limits of your imagination. I wish to encourage confidence and a resilience in managing feelings of doubt or despair, and to help find a positive and affirming way ahead.

Daniel Dennehy Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, BA, Dip Grad, AdvDip, MBACP
Welcome, I am an Integrative counsellor. I work with people struggling with anxiety, depression and bereavement. People also attend because they are feeling stuck, struggling to find meaning or purpose in their lives. They may be struggling with their relationships with food, alcohol, drugs, gambling, sex, shopping... using these methods to manage their emotions, or to distract themselves from situations or feelings that are overwhelming them.
I have worked for over ten years in the field of sexual health in both the NHS and charity sector. I have extensive experience working with LGBT clients at places such as London Friend, The Helios Centre and 56 Dean Street. I offer support for people struggling with compulsive sexual behaviours or what is often referred to as sex addiction. Shame and guilt can prevent us from seeking support. I have a pro-sexual stance. I offer a gender, sexuality and relationship diverse service, focussed on people leading authentic and satisfactory lives.

Vicky Mould

Navigating life experiences such as depression, anxiety, bereavement (including baby loss), domestic abuse, relationship issues, perinatal or parenting concerns can be challenging and leave you feeling overwhelmed, alone, exhausted, or stuck. But I can be of support. I can help you feel part of a safe, trusting and supportive relationship, and find your sense of coping, healing, and well‑being.
15 Years Experience
Online in Southend-on-Sea, England (Online Only)
Southend-on-Sea is a large coastal town in Essex on the Thames Estuary, where mental health demand reflects a mix of seaside resort identity and significant areas of socioeconomic deprivation, with some inner-town neighbourhoods ranking among the most deprived in the East of England. NHS Talking Therapies services are available through the local trust, though wait times can be long, and a private therapy sector serves those who can access it. The town draws both long-term residents and London commuters, and the pressures of local employment challenges alongside the demands of commuter life shape the kinds of concerns people bring to therapy. Private practitioners are also available in neighbouring Leigh-on-Sea and Westcliff-on-Sea for those seeking faster access.
