You May Be Here Because…

  • Your son’s behaviour has become increasingly difficult to manage.

  • Conflict at home has become persistent.

  • Defiance, withdrawal or disengagement from school or university is increasing.

  • Communication has broken down and parental authority is becoming harder to maintain.

  • Previous approaches and professional support have not brought the change you hoped for.

You may have reached a point where you are asking:

“What do we do now?”

I work privately with families facing complex behavioural situations involving young males, providing individually structured interventions when conventional approaches have not achieved the progress needed.

Problems & Situations>

The Outcome

The aim is meaningful, sustainable change for the young man and his family.

Areas of progress may include:

  • Re-engagement with education or purposeful activity.

  • Reduced conflict at home.

  • Improved family communication.

  • Clearer boundaries and parental authority.

  • Greater personal responsibility and accountability.

  • Reduced risk and improved decision-making.

  • A more stable family environment.

Every family is different. Interventions are individually structured around the circumstances and challenges involved.

Why Families Choose to Work With Me

Experience and Approach

I bring over 26 years of experience working directly with young men and their families facing behavioural and relational difficulties. Choosing the right person to support your family is an important decision.

My professional background includes:

  • Youth work and family support.

  • Counselling and psychotherapy.

  • Family mediation.

  • Behavioural intervention.

My approach considers the young male within the wider family context, including relationships, communication, expectations, boundaries and authority.

What Happens After You Enquire?

I maintain a deliberately limited practice, accepting only a small number of engagements each year.

The process

  • Personal review — I review every enquiry myself.

  • Suitability — I consider your family’s circumstances and whether my expertise is appropriate.

  • Availability — I assess whether I have capacity to take on your situation.

  • Consultation — If there is a suitable fit and availability, I will invite you to book a paid consultation.

Submitting an enquiry does not guarantee a consultation.

If I am unable to assist or have no availability, I will let you know so you can continue seeking appropriate professional support.
