AXA PPP Counselling in Manchester

Ruth Mykoo
Counsellor, MBACP Accred
Sometimes life throws us challenges both through past and present experiences, which knock us off our feet and we become engulfed in uncertainty, worry and fear. It could be that we start to doubt ourselves and feel that we are not good enough or we are unable to cope, leading to anxiety and depression. Whatever you are going through, it deserves care, attention and compassion. You may be struggling to make meaning of what is going on around as you navigate life changes or have experienced traumatic events that you need some relief from. Whatever you are going through, I hope to help.

Are you tired of wondering if and when things will get better? Working with me offers more than just coping strategies, it is a space for real healing and growth. Are you carrying the weight of past experiences that still affect your present life? You may feel broken, stuck, or like no one truly understands what you’ve been through. Perhaps you experience flashbacks, dissociation, emotional numbness, panic, or sudden shifts in mood that feel out of your control. You may have already tried therapy, self-help, or coping strategies, but still feel as though the impact of trauma lingers beneath the surface.

Andrea Sarah Lawton
Psychotherapist, MSc, MUKCP
I am a UKCP registered psychotherapist and work with adults and couples experiencing relationship and emotional difficulties. People access therapy for many different reasons, but generally we are most likely to reach out for help when our usual coping strategies are no longer effective. At these times it may not be helpful to turn to family or friends, as their well-meaning support may not always help. I offer weekly sessions in a calm and professional environment. If you would be interested in working with me please get in touch by email and I will aim to respond within 24 hours.

I work with people facing all kinds of difficulties, and I specialise in chronic pain, health anxiety, and long-term health conditions. Many clients are exhausted by carrying the weight of a health challenge alone, often feeling like they're just getting through each day rather than living it. Drawing on my NHS background, I help clients feel more in control again, whatever brought them to therapy.

Nadia Khan
Psychologist, PsychD, HCPC - Clin. Psych.
At the core of my therapeutic approach is to provide an empathic, safe and open space, enabling clients to develop awareness and understanding of complex psychological difficulties. I use this basic foundation to help clients (and the systems around them) work through these challenges by applying appropriate, evidenced-based intervention models in a gentle and collaborative way. I believe that while life inevitably entails a degree of trauma, tragedy or other adversity, therapy can help people find resilience and hope, thus supporting them to grow from these experiences and offering a path to a happier and more settled existence.

You may be struggling with OCD – intrusive thoughts, compulsions, constant doubt or a need for certainty – or carrying the lasting effects of difficult or traumatic childhood experiences. Perhaps you understand why you feel or behave the way you do, but knowing this hasn't been enough to change it. You may still struggle with anxiety, low self-worth, perfectionism, people-pleasing, emotional triggers or relationships. Having navigated OCD, anxiety and childhood trauma myself, I bring both personal understanding and professional experience to our work together.
