Trauma Counselling for Liverpool, without the journey
From the heart of Liverpool, near the waterfront, the two cathedrals and the music heritage, out to its edges, from the waterfront and the centre to Toxteth, Anfield, Allerton and Walton, online sessions make it possible to get the right support without rearranging your whole day around a single appointment.
From my base in Hove, I see clients all over the country by video. For someone in Liverpool, that opens up an experienced, BACP-registered specialist without the need to find one on your own doorstep.
I also work online with people elsewhere in North West, including Warrington, Preston, Chester.
If you would still prefer to meet in person and can travel to the Sussex coast, you are welcome to, but for most clients in Liverpool online trauma counselling is the natural and effective choice.
Life in Liverpool
Why people in Liverpool reach out
Liverpool's warmth, humour and strong sense of community are famous, but the city has also weathered real hardship and disinvestment over the years. Insecure work and money pressure remain part of life for many, and the expectation to stay strong for everyone else can make it hard to admit you are struggling.
Port towns run on shifts and movement, and that constant churn can make it hard to feel settled or to keep a regular appointment. Online counselling flexes around unsociable hours rather than asking you to fit your life around it.

Why online works in Liverpool
Why people in Liverpool choose online counselling
Around shift work
If your hours follow the rhythm of the port, online sessions bend around shifts rather than the other way round.
Begin sooner
Rather than waiting for a local appointment to come free, an online slot often means you can start the work much sooner.
Human, even on a screen
The technology fades within minutes. What remains is a real, attentive conversation, the same one we'd have sitting in the room together.
Gentle when leaving home is hard
If anxiety, low mood or avoidance make leaving the house feel like too much right now, starting online from Liverpool can be the gentlest possible way in.
How online sessions work
The method itself is the same online as it is in the room. I am integratively trained and draw on approaches designed specifically for trauma, including the Human Givens Rewind Technique, a calm, non-intrusive method that returns a memory to ordinary recall. You do not have to relive the detail or even speak it aloud for this to work.
The setup is light: somewhere quiet, a phone, tablet or laptop, and a workable connection. We open with a free fifteen-minute call, and after that each session is a secure link you click when the time comes.

Start the conversationFinding support in Liverpool
My online counselling sits alongside the help available locally, and it can be worth knowing what else is there. In Liverpool, you can refer yourself directly to NHS Talking Therapies Liverpool for free NHS talking therapy, with no GP referral needed. You can also find your nearest service through the NHS Talking Therapies finder.
Private sessions with me usually mean you can start sooner, stay with the same counsellor throughout, and work at greater depth and pace; the two can run side by side, and I'm glad to work alongside any NHS or GP support you already have.
If you need urgent help now
This practice is not a crisis service. If you or someone else is in immediate danger, call 999.
For urgent mental health support, call NHS 111 and choose the mental health option. The Samaritans are free, day or night, on 116 123, or text SHOUT to 85258.
