Hi, My name is Calum. I offer counseling and psychotherapy in person or online.

I am currently in advanced clinical practice studying Transactional Analysis with Transactional Analysis Cymru, working towards a level 7 UKCP accredited qualification.

I use Transactional Analysis in my work. When I first encountered it, it changed how I understood myself within a few hours. It gave me language for things I had felt for a long time but never been able to name, and I have been following it ever since.

Three ideas sit underneath everything I do: that everyone has the capacity to think, that everyone has the capacity to change, and that we are, at our core, OK.

I take a real interest in the systems we live inside — our culture, our families, our friendships and relationships, our work, and our relationship with the natural world. None of us becomes who we are on our own. Understanding what has shaped you tends to be more useful than being told what to do differently.

My training in ecological Transactional Analysis has extended that interest to the more-than-human world: what our surroundings ask of us, and what they can show us about ourselves.

Whatever brings you, my aim is the same. To build a space safe enough that you can look at your own experience honestly, make sense of it in your own way, and decide what you want to do next.
