About Me
Psychology as a calling
I remember doing ALIS tests at school and being given the result of Psychologist as my ideal profession. I ignored it and pursued Physics which took me into working in the Energy sector. After a difficult string of relationships, I was compelled to spend more time with the human brain in theory and practice. I'm a semi-pro musician, avid video gamer, and reservist for the Irish Guard.
Talking about tests at school, I was an academic and music scholar with a curiosity in all things, including people. However, I struggled with relationship navigation and was never able to fully integrate with others in a natural way. In the aftermath of a difficult breakup and in the build up to starting my ongoing psych studies, I received a diagnosis of Autism. All the signs were there, but because I quickly learned the social playbook and had no learning difficulties, my specific brain modality went unsuspected for 36 years.
My Philosophy
My relationship etiquette framework stems from non-conformist, autism-fuelled years of dating and connecting in the non-mono space. There are multiple pillars that influence why we engage in certain relationships, and I assist individuals in factorising, analysing, and reconstructing these elements into a comprehensive roadmap for the future.
Through my research and work with clients, I develop philosophies about relationship touchpoints like Lust, Love, Physical Attraction, Emotional Attraction, Logistical Attraction, Boundaries/Expectations, Marriage, Pregnancy, and Child-rearing. Each of these components comes into sharp focus in sessions designed to teach my method for effective relationship navigation.
My Publications
I write extensively. My work is being published in the seminal work 'What I Learned From Being Discarded,' which outlines all my revelations, whether reskinnings of established relationship theory, or brand new modalities for stronger, happier connections.

My Studies and Research
I am currently undergoing psychotherapy training for a Level 4 Psychotherapy diploma with CPTA and Southbank University to complement my Psychology A-Level. My novel framework of Structured Story Collective Perspective Therapy is currently seeking funding for trials to assist in helping patients process confusing behaviours from their loved ones. Additionally, I have developed a study focused on tracking the severity of rumination among affected individuals.
