Meet Stuart

My name is Stuart.

Welcome to my website. I am a qualified counselor and coach and clinical supervisor, with a background in education and marketing. I have a corporate background and have run a successful business since 2019. 

My work is grounded in one simple belief:

people and small businesses thrive when they have the right support in place.

 I support individuals, sole traders, and small business owners. In my work, I have observed those who are overwhelmed by responsibility, uncertainty in the face of ambition, and often self-doubt.

My role is to offer a calm, thoughtful space where you can slow things down, reflect, and find a way forward that fits you, your values and aspirations.

How I Can Support You

Growth does not have to mean relentless pressure or constant expansion. Often, by gaining clarity, we go on to make sustainable decisions.  I support clients by:

• navigating the emotional and psychological demands of day to day life. I support individuals with a range of mental health concerns. Together, we can developing self-awareness and resilience, using a range of established therapeutic counselling therapeutic approaches. 
• help sole traders and small business develop coping strategies to handle stress, isolation, decision fatigue, and confidence challenges. I can also support more practically, with a range of marketing support services.
• establishing priorities and direction, through coaching conversations that reconnect you with what matters most to you, on personal and professional levels.

I work in an integrative way and, working alongside you, we will take a holistic approach to your wellbeing. I cannot emphasize enough how important this is because your wellness determines your health, your wealth, or however you define what success means to you. 

My Background

Alongside my therapeutic and supervisory work, I bring:

30+ years of experience in business and organisational settings

Experience of living and working internationally, which has deepened my cross-cultural awareness, my adaptability and ability to work with diversity and difference.

Long-standing involvement in mentoring since 2009.

Successful counselling practice since 2019

How I Work

Like many of the people I support, I have experienced difficult periods in life. Many years ago, I embarked on a period of self-exploration, with counselling and reflection, and this has left me convinced of the power of being heard and supported. It is transformational and that period changed my life.

That experience shapes how I work today. I offer a non-judgemental, compassionate space where there is time to think, feel, and explore without pressure. 

My role is not to tell you what to do, but to listen carefully, notice patterns you may not see, gently challenge where appropriate, and support you in finding your own way forward.

 If you are feeling hesitant about reaching out, that is completely understandable. Many start this kind of exploration feeling unsure, stuck, or overwhelmed. You might find that some of these questions resonate:

• Is something holding me back?
• Why do I feel so conflicted about change?
• What am I afraid of losing, or gaining?
• Is it okay to want more clarity or ease?
• How can I bring about change in my work and my team?

These are very human questions, and you do not have to answer them alone.

By bringing together counselling, coaching, supervision,

and practical business understanding, I offer a joined-up form of support

that can help make more sense of your world, and the way forward.

I offer a complimentary introductory call so you can decide, without pressure, whether working together feels right for you.  I look forward to connecting with you.
