Hello! My name is Tom and I’m a trainee therapist based at Self Space in Greenwich. I have always counted gentleness, curiosity and perceptiveness among my strengths, and studying the Humanistic approach to counselling and therapy, have helped me to build on these. Life can be a brutal, ruthless, and lonely experience for many of us at times. My goal is for each of my clients to have a warm and secure space to unburden themselves of their troubles. I believe that authentic human connection, in an accepting environment, can have an incredible healing effect. My life experiences have been hugely impacted by the fact that I am Autistic. Living my life as a member of a marginalised group has meant that I have experience of living as part of a minority group, and the mental impact of living as an outsider. Experiencing this has helped me to understand, and grow in empathy, with people who live with other types of differences; and further appreciate the values of inclusivity and compassion. Whether you live with a neurodiverse brain or not, I am keen to offer you kindness and a listening ear.
If you would like to book in for low cost therapy with Tom, please email clinical@theselfspace.com.
