Ianto McGuckin

Compassionate, person-centred integrative approach Hi, I’m Ianto—an old Welsh name pronounced Yan-toh—and my pronouns are he/him. As an English national, I provide counselling services in English only. I believe psychological and emotional wellbeing are just as important as physical health, and I tailor my approach to each individual. Together, we’ll identify how our sessions can best support you. Therapy is a space where you can be completely yourself, feel heard and validated, and safely process your experiences while exploring your needs. I know reaching out can feel daunting, especially when you’re unsure what to expect, but I look forward to working with you. I bring over 17 years in the tech industry combined with extensive clinical experience as an NCPS Accredited Counsellor and Psychotherapist. Before moving into therapy full-time, I worked in software engineering, automated testing, and technical leadership, collaborating with developers, product teams, and senior stakeholders. This background helps me understand the challenges of tech culture—high cognitive load, perfectionism, burnout, imposter syndrome, ADHD masking, remote-work isolation, and the pressure to stay ‘relevant’ in a fast-paced field. My integrated, person-centred, evidence-based approach works especially well for analytical thinkers, those who can’t switch off, and anyone feeling overwhelmed by competing demands at work and home.
