I currently have daytime availability between 10am and 4pm on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Do you feel overwhelmed, low, or stuck?

Are you weighed down by stress, anxiety, or uncertainty?

Maybe you feel like you are enduring life rather than enjoying it?

You don't have to face these challenges alone.

Having worked in law in my first career as a commercial litigation solicitor I understand the demands and pressures of modern life. In fact, it was through my own experience of work-related stress that lead me to re-training as a counsellor.

Counselling offers a space to explore your thoughts and feelings in a non-judgmental environment. It's an opportunity to gain new perspectives, learn coping strategies, and develop skills for navigating life's ups and downs.

It's about investing in your mental wellbeing proactively, rather than waiting for a breaking point.

It’s not just for times of crisis but can also be useful for dealing with everyday life; the moments when stress feels overwhelming, when work-life balance seems like an impossible feat, or when self-doubt creeps in and dims your confidence.

Think of it like going to the gym. You don't just hit the weights when you are feeling out of shape instead you train consistently to build strength and resilience over time.

I recognise that one size does not fit all and so the counselling sessions are tailored to meet your unique needs and goals.

Over the years, I've had the privilege of supporting numerous clients in managing stress and regaining control of their lives. From improved sleep to reduced overwhelm, therapy has the potential to bring about profound positive changes.

I have a MA Counselling from the University of Manchester and am an Accredited Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).

I have over 10 years of experience gained from working in my own private practice, the NHS and the charitable sector. I am also an affiliate counsellor for a number of Employee Assistance Programmes.

Sessions last 50 minutes and take place in person in Manchester City Centre or by video or telephone.

I offer both long and short term therapy.

If you're ready to take the first step towards a calmer, more fulfilling life or have any questions then please get in touch, I would be happy to arrange a quick chat to explore how counselling can support you on your journey towards greater well-being.

I will reply to every message that I receive however, if you do not receive a response then please check your junk folder as I am aware that my emails can sometimes end up there.
