About me and my therapy practice
About Me
I'm Neil, a passionate and empathic counsellor with a deep belief in the power of connection and self-discovery. My approach to therapy is rooted in the idea that together, we can uncover the strengths you already possess and use them to navigate life’s challenges.
I have a strong foundation in Person-Centred Therapy (PCT), which places compassion at the heart of the healing process. If you often feel overwhelmed by self-criticism or a sense of not being "good enough," this approach can be particularly transformative. We’ll work as a team to identify your needs, explore effective techniques, and create a path forward that makes life more manageable and fulfilling.
Inspiration
I meet you where you are, with the understanding that change is not only possible but within your reach. I’m here to walk beside you as you tap into your own resilience and find the power to transform your life. Let’s embark on this journey together.
Specialised Support
We all feel a little lost sometimes—unsure of which decisions are best for us, or weighed down by the stress of daily life. Talking can be the first step in helping you overcome these challenges. I’ve worked with many people facing difficulties such as anxiety, depression, bereavement, family issues, stress, and loneliness. My role is to help you find the root of your problems and facilitate easing the pain you’re going through.
I am trained in Person-Centred Therapy (PCT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Transactional Analysis (TA).
Therapy Options
For those who may find it easier and more convenient to have sessions from the comfort of their own home, I offer confidential online and phone therapy. Additionally, for those who feel more connected in nature, I offer:
Walking Therapy in Marple, Stockport, and Woodford
Online and telephone sessions
Practice description
My Approach
I believe that therapy should be a balance of seriousness and light-heartedness. Humour has its place in the healing process, and I strive to create a space where you feel safe, understood, and supported. Whether we’re delving into attachment issues, incorporating methods from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), or simply holding space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings, my goal is to ensure you never feel alone in facing what’s difficult.
Working Together
Are you feeling overwhelmed by life’s daily challenges? Have you been surviving rather than truly living? If you’re struggling with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, or other issues, know that you don’t have to face them alone. Together, we will explore your experiences, identify patterns that may be holding you back, and work towards a future that aligns with your values and goals. My approach is always collaborative, ensuring that you are an active participant in your journey of healing and growth.
