As a counsellor, my passion for this profession is deeply rooted in its transformative impact on clients and me.
I can give you the vision that Change is possible. Ive experienced it firsthand. Change begins in the therapeutic relationship with trust, empathy, and collaboration.
Similarly, establishing a relationship, trusting the client, and witnessing their transformation is a privilege I hold dear.
If you seek support, know I am here to listen, guide, and walk alongside.
About me and my practice
I am an experienced, qualified counsellor, working with adults and young people in Trafford, South Manchester., My area of provision includes supporting adults with issues ranging from anxiety, stress, grief, depression, narcissistic behaviours of others and self-worth issues, low self-esteem, isolation, worry, identity loss, and family or relationship issues, including my specialism in men's mental health and well-being.
I provide a confidential, safe space for you to talk and explore your emotions and feelings, which may sometimes feel confusing and difficult to understand; exploring how you think and behave can bring about positive change and empower you to live your best life.
I am a fully qualified, BACP registered member, and fully insured. I will ensure that you are protected and safe, and you can be confident that all sessions are confidential. I work within an ethical framework. I provide a structured, professional therapy service that you can rely on.
I offer face-to-face sessions or online appointments to suit your needs and offer a free 20-minute conversation by either telephone or Zoom to talk through your requirements beforehand. I have a counselling room in Trafford M16, which also has disabled access and facilities with on-site parking and easy reach of a main tram line. This allows me to be flexible in how your therapy is arranged, whether once a week, fortnightly, or a mixture of both online and face-to-face. My therapy service can be arranged around your life, so we can discuss what you need during the introductory call.
I understand that, finding the right counsellor can be daunting, so the first step is to send me a message. I can answer any questions you may have before we arrange any appointments.
Experience
I have experience and still work as a voluntary counsellor within the private sector, supporting adults with issues ranging from anxiety, stress, grief, depression, narcissistic behaviours of others and self-worth issues. I have experience working with young people within a council-based drop-in centre, providing counselling for 16 years + teenagers on an individual and group basis.
In my career within education, I have communicated with many people at all levels, ensuring confidentiality, safeguarding, and privacy. Empathy and listening skills have always been a high priority for everyone, which I will continuously demonstrate to you.
I am a fully qualified person-centred counsellor and offer an initial free-of-charge consultation without commitment online or by telephone. I work with clients on a private 1:1 basis and work by a firm ethical code of practice as set out by my accrediting body of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapy (BACP), of which I am an individual member and frequently attend continuing professional development courses and workshops to enable me to be more knowledgeable in my areas of counselling.
