Counselling in M27

Life can sometimes feel unmanageable, we can feel low and isolated and unsure of who to turn to. When we feel stuck in certain situations and these begin impacting on our mood and our behaviour, we can often need the support of an outside source to help us look at our situation more clearly and to help us regain control. This is where an experienced counsellor can really help. "My therapist has been a great help, a good listener, and has given me an insight into who I really am....I'm sure I will be better for her sound counselling."

I offer a free 20 minute telephone consultation so that we can get a feel for if we would be a good fit for therapy. I am skilled in Person Centred Counselling, CBT and Gestalt Therapy and provide outdoor therapy so that we can safely explore your issues in natural surroundings. The last 2 years have been difficult and caused a great deal of change and uncertainty, which may have manifested in stress, anxiety or depression. You may not have considered therapy before but I am here to help you to navigate the issues that are bringing you to therapy and to make sense of the world around you and how you experience it.

Hi, I am a qualified cognitive behaviour therapist (CBT) and split my time working with children, adolescents and adults. I work part-time at CAMHS for the NHS and also work with students at Manchester University.

Thank you for viewing my profile I am a person centred counsellor and I work with lots of issues including, relationships ( not couples counselling) abuse, depression and low mood , anxiety and domestic abuse.I work in collaborative way with my clients who feel that they need to make changes in their lives or address issues. I help my client understand what changes they would like to make and understand and better regulate their feelings and emotions. We can also work through and understand challenging life events . Together we can work towards you feeling better, having clarity in your life and being the best version of yourself.

Are you struggling with fear, intrusive distressing thoughts, avoidance and generally not living the life that you want? Or are you low, hopeless, self critical and isolating yourself? I can help with these and other mental health difficulties through challenging your thoughts and making some changes to your current behaviours. CBT can also help with improving self-esteem and with overcoming phobias and past trauma. EMDR therapy is a powerful intervention for PTSD and trauma, new studies have also shown its effectiveness with anxiety disorders &grief

I think sometimes we just reach that place in life when we say 'enough is enough'. For some it can mean it is time to stop and face something, and to someone else it can mean it is maybe time to 'let it go'. There's no end to the potential meanings for reaching 'that point'. i think we've all been there at some stage or another. Does this sound familiar ? That's okay, i totally understand where you're coming from. What is important is acknowledging that you have had the energy and motivation to seek someone to support you through this - it takes courage and strength to take this step. Well done!

Feeling vulnerable and overwhelmed by life’s events can happen to any of us and usually occurs at the most inappropriate time. Do you feel unable to make sense of how you feel? Do you have difficulties in relationships? Have you noticed the same patterns of behaviour happening repetitively in your life? Do you have low self-confidence/self-esteem? Do you suffer with anxiety and/or depression? If you have answered yes to any of the above, then I may be able to help you.

Are you feeling stressed or anxious? Are you finding yourself struggling to maintain relationships and get out of bed in the morning? Do you feel as though you've lost who you are? If you answered yes to any of the above then I should be able to help you. I will be able to offer you a safe space to share you story and talk through your worries. I will ensure that you are listened to and respected throughout your journey in a trusting and encouraging environment. I will hold your feelings of anxiousness, anger and pain and ensure you are the focus of our sessions. We will work together to allow your true self to shine.

Wellbeing means different things to different people. Whether you are looking for a new direction in life, feel under pressure, struggle in a relationship, or struggle to find words to talk about what you are going through, I am glad that you found your way here. Making the choice to seek help is brave and an important step forward. If you feel you are in a difficult place and would like to talk to someone, I am here to listen and help you find the answers within yourself at a pace that feels comfortable to you. I work with adults and have specialist expertise working with young people with anger and other difficulties.

Do you feel anxious? Numb? Powerless? Angry? Sad? Confused? Ashamed? Unworthy? Are you struggling in your relationship? Would you like to talk to someone who can support you and listen to you with care and respect? I create a safe and confidential space for you to speak freely and resolve any issues. I work either with Person Centred Therapy which is a talking therapy and also with EFT (Effective Freedom Technique) Tapping, which is tapping on pressure points to help allay fears and anxiety.

“I feel like quite a different person! Dov has taught me to learn from myself what's important in life, who's important in life, and that I'm actually one of the most important people in life. I would say that the work has been tremendous! His time, the way in which he helps you to open up and really evaluate what's going on and also his so many years of his own experience passes over to you. So it oozes confidence for you to then feel that "I can also be like that myself", which has been really, really helpful for me. Amanda Marks, London

Hello, you are here because you are considering therapy, and would like someone to listen whilst you share what is on your mind. Life throws challenges at us, and sometimes this can make it difficult to cope. We find ourselves needing more support so we can manage our thoughts and feelings better, find coping strategies that work and process our experiences. Working on ourselves allows us to move towards a place where our emotions sit more comfortably and we are better able to handle what life throws our way.

Do you feel impacted by difficult life problems as a result of coping with traumatic experiences, managing depression/anxiety or dealing with difficult emotions? Many people find it easier to talk to someone who they see as being separate or an "outsider" to their life rather than friends or family. I can help you make sense of events (past and ongoing) in your life and resolve complicated feelings linked to these. However, you don't have to be at crisis point or feel unwell to have counselling! Therapy can be used to better understanding of yourself, working to change things you want, increasing your self-esteem and for self-care.
