Meet William Brian Davies

William Brian Davies founded Talk Buddy with one clear aim: to make professional support more flexible, more human, and more responsive to individual needs.

Growing up, he witnessed first-hand the pressure that came from being in environments where emotional openness wasn’t encouraged. Over time, he recognised the long-term impact that unspoken stress, uncertainty, and mental health struggles can have on a person’s wellbeing, identity, and confidence. This understanding sparked a lifelong commitment to supporting others.

Brian is a qualified, BACP-registered counsellor with extensive experience supporting individuals through a wide range of challenges, always shaping his approach to each person’s unique needs.

With a background in sport, public service, and mental health, Brian brings a calm, empathetic, and judgement-free approach to his work. He believes therapy should feel human and be shaped around the individual. Whether in a quiet room, over a coffee, or while sharing a simple activity, his focus remains the same: helping people feel seen, supported, and better equipped to understand and manage their own experiences.

“I never thought counselling was for me, but Brian made it feel straightforward and comfortable. He helped me open up about things I hadn't spoken about in years.”
