Parenting Counselling in Manchester
I enjoy helping people who have reached a point in their life when they're feeling stuck and unable to change the way they feel, behave or react to other people. I'm good at helping people to understand themselves better and to change the way they relate to themselves and other people. I work with a very broad range of problems from persistent anxiety and depression to severe trauma and personality disturbance. I offer appointments to clients living locally to me in West Yorkshire, across the U.K., and in a range of countries across the world.

Sometimes, we reach a point in life where we find ourselves numb, anxious, easily upset or frustrated struggling to enjoy the life we have because of trauma, grief, depression or loss of Self. This can affect everything we hold dear: the relationships, the work, personal life, or feeling lost and lacking in self-esteem. It can be really hard to share our difficult feelings with someone or even to admit it to ourselves, and I appreciate and respect that. My aim is to help you find Your-Self, enjoy life again, recognise your personal potential and empowerment, so you can move towards having a meaningful and fulfilling life.

Abuse can have a significant affect on mental health. Whether the abuse happened as a child or as an adult, abusive experiences can lead to low mood, high anxiety, flashbacks to incidents, difficulty trusting others as well as low self-confidence and self-esteem, even when the abuse is historic. These are all normal reactions to difficult and painful experiences. I have worked with people who have experienced abuse for the last 15 years. The work has been transformational for some clients and very helpful for others, whether the abuse is within the family, workplace or within a relationship.

I am available to offer online therapy anywhere in the UK. I can also offer face to face sessions in York on Fridays. My approach to therapy is rooted in empathy, compassion, and non-judgement. I strive to create a safe and supportive environment where you can feel comfortable exploring your thoughts and feelings, and develop the skills and tools needed to thrive. I believe that healing happens in the context of a trusting, collaborative relationship. Whether you’re seeking support for something specific, or simply want to better understand yourself, I’m here to help you become your own guide.

Have you ever felt stuck with your family or work roles? Do the people who are meant to love you unconditionally, frequently hold you back? Do you find yourself constantly feeling the need to apologise for things, then wondering what you have done wrong? Maybe you have felt blamed for things in life and want to explore things further. Or you may feel held back by guilt and regret. I can work with you to explore this through a safe and steady process which looks at patterns across your life and within relationships. This will help you to break free from the restraints of negative approval you may have felt for many years.

Often our anxieties and difficulties can weigh us down and we are unable to find a way forward.

I provide a counselling relationship where you are heard, understood and accepted. This is extremely powerful because it allows you to open up and express all of your thoughts and feelings and gain a new awareness which leads to the potential for positive change.

I have 15 years experience in working with adults, couples, and young people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected—often due to anxiety, low self-worth, relationship struggles, family tension, or neurodiversity. They want a safe, non-judgmental space to feel heard, make sense of their experiences, and find better ways to cope or connect. Whether navigating personal identity, communication breakdowns, or emotional overwhelm, they seek clarity, strength, and lasting change—not just quick fixes, but deeper understanding and confidence.
