“Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.”
Hey there, fellow human!
My name is Ryan.
I work as a contemporary psychotherapist with a specialism in sex & relationships; as an educator; and as a lead facilitator.
I support individuals, organisations, and therapy training providers to build deeper connection, emotional insight, and grounded ways of relating in a complex and chaotic world.
Do you feel ready to start and take the next step in your growth and development?
My Working Philosophy
I have come to believe that the real work of therapeutic and developmental journeys revolves around effort, consistency, discernment, compassion, and patience. It doesn’t matter what the themes or focus might be, without proactive reflection, action, and integration, grounding and sustainable change will not occur. I also feel that therapeutic journeys have become more existential than they used to be due to the uncertain nature of today’s modern world, with more and more questions and hard truths around purpose, meaning, love, and direction.
I thrive on helping everyone and anyone I work with to feel less shame and overwhelm, to feel more self-compassion and self-alignment, to engage in more honest and communicative relationships, and to embody more creativity, agency, aliveness in their daily lives.

“Without this awareness and willingness to be shaped by life, we remain caught in the adolescent strategies of avoidance and heroic striving.”
