Sessions available on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.

What is counselling for? We tend to feel that we should deal with life’s difficulties on our own. But it isn’t unusual to go through a time in our lives where we feel overwhelmed or stuck. Maybe we notice that we’re feeling particularly low or anxious. Or maybe something has happened to us which is affecting the way we feel or our ability to do things. Some things we can deal with on our own, or with support from family and friends. But sometimes, it just feels impossible to find our way forward.

When we’re in that place, it’s easy to imagine that things will never change. We may find ourselves trapped in one way of thinking, going round in circles. This is where counselling can help. Counselling gives us a space, away from the demands of everyday life, where we can slow down for a moment and really focus on ourselves. It gives us a chance to reflect on what is happening for us and how we feel about it. A counsellor’s role is to help you, the client, to understand and to make changes. Counsellors don’t have the answers, but they can guide you to find your own, without judgement.

So, how will talking help? Actually, in a number of ways. It can be a relief for us to speak about something that weighs on us heavily. Voicing our difficulty aloud can help us to understand it better, to see it from different angles. Talking can help us to think in new ways about a situation. It can also enable us to understand what we are feeling, and why.

The more we understand, the less we feel confused and overwhelmed by our circumstances. We can gain a sense of clarity: a moment where the clouds part and we feel able to see clearly. Talking can increase our confidence, our sense of self-worth, and our ability to relate to ourselves and others. It can even give us a newfound sense of freedom. 

The type of counselling that I offer is called the Person-Centred Approach. As the name suggests, this type of talking therapy is guided by you. You set the agenda, and you decide what you would like your sessions to focus on. I will listen to you without judgement, offering a safe space to explore your thoughts and feelings, and I will share my own reflections with you where I think this will be helpful.

This may sound daunting, but as a counsellor my role is to be with you, as a guide, along every step of the way. You may have a clear idea of what you would like to get from counselling. Or you may have only a vague feeling that you would like something to change. Either one is a valid starting point for therapy.

About Me: I am a qualified Person-Centred Counsellor and accredited Interpersonal Psychotherapist. I have over four years’ experience as a therapist, working within a range of NHS, Housing Association, and specialist Domestic Abuse counselling services.

Alongside my private practice, I work part-time within an NHS Bereavement Therapy Service.

As a therapist, I have specialist training and experience of supporting people affected by bereavement and loss, depression, trauma and abusive relationships. Other areas of professional interest for me include working with LGBTQ+ issues, interpersonal relationships and neurodiversity.

I come to counselling from a background of supporting adults in health and social care services. I have over eight years’ experience in services for homelessness, mental health recovery, Domestic Abuse and survivors of Modern Slavery. 

I offer a free initial phone consultation of up to 30 minutes. This is a chance for us to discuss what brings you to counselling and to think about what you would like to get from it. It’s also an opportunity for you to get a feel for my way of working.

At the end of the consultation, you may wish to go ahead and book a first session. Or you might feel that what I’m offering is not for you. Either one is OK, and I will be happy to help you decide what feels right for you.

In counselling, I offer regular sessions of 50 minutes. To get the full benefit, weekly attendance is recommended, but I can also offer flexible appointments to fit around your schedule.

Sessions can take place in-person, or remotely, via phone or video call. For in-person appointments, I offer private, comfortable counselling rooms in either of two purpose-built therapy centres, located in Prestwich and Whitefield, Greater Manchester.
