Men's Issues Counselling in Newton-le-Willows
Hi. Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, low, stuck — or like you’ve lost yourself in patterns of putting everyone else first? You might look fine on the outside, but inside you’re exhausted, tangled, and carrying too much alone.
I’m an experienced counsellor with 15 years’ practice. I offer a steady, compassionate space where you can slow things down, make sense of what you’re feeling, and understand what your emotions are trying to tell you — because feelings don’t just happen to us; they shape how we cope, choose, and relate.

Hi I'm Yvonne, I'm a fully qualified Person Centred Counsellor and Clinical Supervisor currently in private practice in St Helens At some point in our life we may experience periods where we need additional support to manage a difficult situation, work through a particular issue, or understand something from our past. This at times can lead us to feel alone and not knowing which way to turn. Whilst friends and family can be a huge source of love and support, at times we need someone impartial to help make sense of things.

Hi, perhaps you may be living with trauma, PTSD, depression, anxiety, thoughts of suicide, or mood disorders. You might feel weighed down by past experiences, stuck in patterns you don’t fully understand, and unsure how to move forward. You want relief from persistent emotional pain and a greater sense of steadiness within yourself. Your goal is to feel safe in your own mind and body, to understand your story with compassion, and to build a life guided by choice rather than shaped by past wounds. While I have a personal mission to support male mental health, especially those who feel the pressures of the online world, I welcome all.

Most people who come to me are managing anxiety that won't switch off, low mood, trauma, or grief that feels invisible to those around them, including pregnancy and infant loss, miscarriage, stillbirth, and infertility. I also work with children and young people. As a solo, person-centred counsellor, I shape sessions around you, not a fixed programme, so you're heard at your own pace.

Life can be overwhelming at times and feel as though it’s full of challenges and uphill struggles. Perhaps you are feeling anxious, depressed, or generally a ‘bit stuck’ with life.
Many people feel exactly the same way and I am here to support you so that you don’t have to navigate, which way to go, or, what to do, alone. There may not even be a clear issue that you would like to explore but there is just an underlying unease and ‘not being ok’ feeling.

If you're dealing with porn, compulsive sex, or a relapse cycle you can't break, you're in the right place. The pattern keeps coming back because the root has never been touched. Willpower fights the behaviour. My work goes to the source.
Six years working with men 1:1 on this. I've been through it myself and know what it takes to close it for good.
The anxiety, the stress, the emptiness underneath. That is what drives it. Each session we work through your specific triggers using Mind Shifting, clearing what sits beneath each one before moving to the next. You leave each session feeling the difference, not hoping something shifted.

I work with people from all walks of life, with a particular interest in supporting men - who are far less likely to seek support and far more likely to need it. Clients often come to me feeling low, anxious, stuck, or short-tempered, sometimes without knowing why. Others are dealing with stress, burnout, grief, relationship difficulties, or past experiences still affecting the present. There's no threshold you need to meet. I work in a person-centred way: no scripts, no homework, no being told what your problem is. I listen properly, ask questions, and help you hear yourself more clearly so you can move forward in your own way.

I feel that reaching out to talk to someone can be difficult, we may feel a sense of the unknown and therefore I understand that the process may be challenging. On the other hand, you may have spoken to someone before or feel at ease. Either way, through our work together I feel you have the potential to grow, develop, heal and work towards achieving your goals. No experience or issue is too large for us to work through. Therapy provides a time and space for reflection, exploration, support and understanding that we may not readily have in our day to day lives. For this reason, I feel it can hold great value.

Hi, I'm Vicky to begin I’d like to acknowledge how difficult it can be making that first step to recognising you may need some support. It takes courage to admit you may need a helping hand, or someone to help bear that heavy weight you may be carrying. Something I believe most of us need at some point in our lives. It can be difficult to turn to those closest to us for fear we may be judged or not truly listened to. So, I offer a safe confidential space for you to be heard, and to explore the issues that may be troubling you, in a non-judgemental way. Somewhere you can lead at your own pace.

Are you struggling to balance a various life roles with your personal needs? I work with individuals and couples in the UK and internationally who feel disconnected from their purpose. Clients often come to me feeling stuck, overwhelmed by expectations, and wrestling with stress or emptiness. Together, we’ll explore the underlying causes of these feelings, move beyond the pressure to "just tough it out," and help you reclaim your authentic narrative. Insight tells us that motivation rarely arrives on its own; it is the act of stepping forward that creates the momentum for change.

Are you gripped by anxiety or tired-out because of a low mood and lack of purpose? Or is drink or drugs causing problems in your life? Perhaps you're continually seeking sex or using pornography even when you don't really want to be? Or maybe you just need to be able to talk through what's on your mind without feeling judged, knowing that something isn’t right, even when it’s hard to name exactly what it is.
These are the main reasons men come to me for counselling, working online (UK/international) or in-person (south Manchester).

Is therapy for men different than it is for women?
Therapeutic treatments and types are the same for men as they are for women, with the same protocols followed and the same strategies employed. Discussing one’s feelings and emotions is an integral part of most therapies, and some men find doing so more challenging. Therapists can help clients through the process; some specialize in treating men for this reason.
How do you encourage a man to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual’s behavior affected either himself or others should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can men prepare for therapy?
Men can prepare for therapy by approaching the process with an open mind, being willing to talk about their challenges, and giving treatment the time to work. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. It can be useful for men who struggle to recall their emotional states to write down notes between sessions about their response to a given event or how they were feeling at a particular time.
What should men know about the process of therapy?
One of the most common reasons men don’t seek therapy is the notion that there’s something wrong with them if they do. Men should know that just because they’re seeking therapy doesn’t mean they’re mentally ill or damaged in some way. In the same way people work on their bodies through exercise or a craft through practice, therapy can be a way to improve the mental and emotional skills needed to be productive and effective partners, employees, and people in all realms of life.
