Thanks for visiting my page. If you are here, I expect you are thinking of having therapy and perhaps considering me to be your therapist. My name is Gavin, I use he/him pronouns, and I am a white, neuro typical, able bodied, gay cis man. I’ve been in recovery from addiction for over 5 years. I volunteer with two local LGBTQ+ charity and I sing with the Manchester Proud Chorus. I’m single and live in Manchester with my dog and cat.
I am registered with the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). My primary modality is person centred, but I also use CBT and TA modalities. Person Centred is a non-directive form of counselling, so I won’t be trying to tell you what to do or give you advice. Nobody knows you better than you know yourself,.
As a gay man who grew up in the 1980s, I carry the weight of both the struggles and the resilience that shaped my journey. In a time marked by significant discrimination, especially under laws like Section 28, and the devastation of the AIDS epidemic, I witnessed firsthand what it means to be marginalized, ostracized, and denied basic rights.
