Accountable to the Professional Standards Authority via the National Counselling and Psychotherapy (NCPS) register, Chris Brotherton is a Southport-based therapeutic counsellor, ACT and CBT therapist for men throughout the United Kingdom. Mettle Therapy brings a neutral setting for men seeking honest change. Chris works with men to develop practical coping strategies and a deeper understanding of themselves, and their unmet needs using evidence-based techniques. Whether you are feeling stuck in your career, relationship or overwhelmed by daily stress, you will be supported to move forward one conversation at a time.
I'm a qualified person-centred counsellor, CBT practitioner, Restorative Practitioner, with Focused ACT and Single-Session Therapy training, including ASIST (Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training).
There's no simpler way to know if we would work well together than by engaging in a free initial consultation for 15 minutes. Although the free call is not therapy, you'll get a strong sense of my character and how we would work together.

I work with men experiencing shame, guilt, anxiety, depression, bereavement, adverse childhood trauma, addiction, family difficulties, and relationship breakdowns. Through a relational and restorative approach, I help men reframe shame safely, regain control, and move forward in a way that attends to their unmet needs.

We'll start by understanding your goals for therapy, what you want to achieve. Some prefer freedom to talk openly without judgment, and others prefer solution focused work using CBT or Single-Session Therapy. Mettle adapts to fit your needs, whether reflective, practical or highly focused on a single concern.
