Hello, I'm Stu
I’m Stu, the lead counsellor and Founder of SJR Therapy. What can you expect when you have therapy sessions with me? I can offer a calm, relaxed space, a brew and an informal atmosphere and conversation. I’ve had lots of feedback over the years that therapy with me is like chatting to an old friend. I can assure you that you have nothing to feel nervous about - it’s just a brew and a chat where we’ll talk about whatever has brought you to therapy…with some laughter along the way!
My Story
I am passionate about mental health and firmly believe that counselling can change a persons life. I have a wealth of experience in lots of different areas - I worked in education for a number of years, as a counsellor and mentor to teaching staff and students and worked in the financial service industry before changing careers to counselling and psychotherapy. Having struggled with poor mental health myself and receiving therapy as a result, I can totally understand the nerves and anxiety that you may have before you embark on your therapeutic journey but you have nothing to fear.
