For eleven years, people have come to me carrying problems. Anxiety that won’t quiet down. Relationships that keep breaking in the same place. A career that looks fine on paper but feels hollow inside. And for eleven years, I’ve done what a good therapist does: I’ve helped people work through those things.
But somewhere along the way, I started noticing something else in the room with us.
Underneath every problem a person brought me, there was a person. Not a diagnosis. Not a set of symptoms to manage. A whole, creative, resourceful human being — often far more capable than they believed themselves to be. I’ve sat with hundreds of people now, and I can tell you: human beings are extraordinary. We are natural problem-solvers. We adapt, we survive, we find our way through things that should have broken us. And yet most of us walk around chronically underrating ourselves, as if we’re only the sum of what’s currently going wrong.
I don’t think that’s the whole story. I don’t think it ever was.
Somewhere inside every person I’ve worked with, there’s something quieter than the anxiety, steadier than the crisis of the week — something I can only really call a soul. Not a concept. Not a metaphor. Something real, asking to be noticed, nourished, and lived from — rather than buried under the next task, the next fix, the next thing to manage.
That’s what More Soul Therapy is.
It isn’t a replacement for the practical, grounded counselling and coaching work I’ve always done — that work still matters, and I still do it. But alongside it, I’ve built a space for something deeper: for people who sense, even quietly, even without quite knowing how to say it, that there’s more to life than the body, the to-do list, the relationship status, the career ladder. People who wonder if they’re loved by something bigger than themselves — because I believe you are, and I don’t think that’s something to be shy about saying.
This isn’t about religion in the narrow sense. It’s about remembering that you are not just your problems. You have an inner life — a soul — that deserves the same care and attention you’d give anything else you loved.
If that stirs something in you, I’d love for you to take a look at the new site: More Soul Therapy.
And if we’ve worked together before, or you’ve been meaning to reach out — this is me, still here, still doing this work, just with a fuller picture of what it’s really about.
