Chris Calder

I’m a warm, down‑to‑earth therapist offering CBT and counselling for men navigating depression, anxiety, addiction, anger, and life’s pressures. I provide a supportive, non‑judgemental space where you can talk openly and honestly. My aim is to help you understand what’s going on beneath the surface, build practical coping skills, and move towards a calmer, healthier, more fulfilling life.

I'm a CBT therapist but my approach is grounded in personal experience. Generally, that means we'll talk for a bit and then agree some things for you to work on in between sessions. I've spent 15+ years managing warehouses and factories, which gave me hands on experience of real life issues. I've walked the walk in addiction, depression and anxiety. I try to keep the tone quite casual. It should feel like a really good conversation with someone who genuinely wants to know your story.

Message me for a free consult call. We'll cover all the practicalities and any questions you have. I work mostly evenings and weekends but can flex with notice.
