Jonny:

Jonny is a compassionate and thoughtful counsellor who is deeply passionate about helping people find freedom from whatever may be holding them back. He believes that every person has the capacity to grow, heal, and become more fully who they are meant to be, and he considers it a privilege to walk alongside people in that process.

In his work, Jonny offers a calm, empathetic space where individuals can speak openly and honestly, at their own pace. He is committed to listening well, working collaboratively, and supporting people as they explore their experiences, gain clarity, and move toward greater freedom and wellbeing.

Outside of his counselling work, Jonny lives with his wife and children. He enjoys spending time outdoors, particularly walking and running, and when time allows, heading out for a longer hike. These rhythms of movement and time in nature help shape his grounded, reflective approach to both life and counselling.
