Vicky Larkins

I offer online or in-person sessions, based out of Hale, Altrincham. I have availability on Tuesday or Wednesday day and early evening.

Perhaps you're very good at coping. Maybe others see you as the strong one. You keep going, take responsibility and look after everyone else, while inside you may feel anxious, overwhelmed or never quite good enough. Life might have thrown illness, loss or other unexpected events your way and it's become exhausting. You might struggle with relationships or find that past experiences still shape how you feel about yourself today. I offer a space where you don't have to perform or have the right words. Together, we can make sense of what you're experiencing and help you develop greater trust, understanding and acceptance of yourself.

My approach is warm, down-to-earth and person-centred. I work with anxiety, trauma, grief, low self-worth and relationship difficulties. I won't simply sit silently; I'll help you explore patterns, make connections and understand yourself more deeply, drawing on other therapeutic approaches when helpful while always working at your pace. 

Taking the first step can feel daunting, particularly if you're used to managing things on your own. You don't need to know exactly what you want from counselling before getting in touch. If something here has resonated with you, you're welcome to contact me and we can arrange an initial conversation to see whether working together feels right for you.
