Jose

Jose works with adults and young people navigating a spectrum of challenges, from daily stress, anxiety, and mood disorders like depression to profound emotional turmoil, guilt, and shame. He offers dedicated support for those undergoing major life transitions, exploring gender identity, or coping with the impact of bullying, violence, abuse, and family or romantic relationship breakdowns, including betrayal, jealousy, and communication difficulties. His practice is deeply inclusive, providing a safe and affirming space for neurodiverse clients (including ADHD and Autism) and LGBTQ+ individuals, alongside career-focused professionals, parents, and those facing addiction, job loss, or financial stress. Employing an integrative approach, José expertly blends Person-Centred, Psychodynamic, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), often exploring past experiences to illuminate their present impact while focusing on deep emotional processes. In sessions, clients experience a collaborative environment where their insights lead, while José provides balanced guidance, structure, and thoughtful reframing to help them find their own solutions and build strong support networks. He values transparency, tracks progress, offers praise, and uses appropriate humour, collaborating with other professionals when beneficial. José’s ultimate aim is to empower clients to gain clarity, cultivate self-acceptance, and create meaningful, lasting change at a pace that feels right for them, without typically assigning homework.
