Trauma Counselling for Manchester, without the journey
Across Manchester, from the city centre and the Northern Quarter to Didsbury, Rusholme, Chorlton and Wythenshawe, and from the streets around the canals, the music venues and the two universities, online trauma counselling takes the logistics out of getting help: no commute, no waiting room, and the focus kept where it belongs, on you.
My room is in Hove, but the work reaches a great deal further. By secure video I support people throughout the UK, Manchester included, with the same care and attention as an in-person session.
I also work online with people elsewhere in North West, including Bolton, Stockport, Oldham.
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 Manchester online trauma counselling is the natural and effective choice.
Life in Manchester
Why people in Manchester reach out
Manchester moves at speed, a young, creative, fast-growing city of music, sport and tech, and that energy can be as exhausting as it is exciting. Soaring rents, long hours and the loneliness that can hide inside a busy city all take a toll, and finding time and privacy for yourself is hard.
Student and academic life can be intense and surprisingly lonely, even surrounded by people your own age. Working online keeps support steady through term and vacation alike, wherever you are.

Why online works in Manchester
Why people in Manchester choose online counselling
Around terms and deadlines
Sessions flex around the academic calendar and shift work, so support holds steady through the busiest weeks.
The comfort of your own space
Many people find it easier to open up from their own sofa than in an unfamiliar room. From Manchester, that comfort is part of the work, not a compromise.
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.
How online sessions work
However we meet, the approach stays consistent. 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.
Practically, it couldn't be simpler: a quiet room, a device with a camera, and a steady internet connection. After a free fifteen-minute call to check the fit, you'll get a private link to join at our agreed time.

Start the conversationFinding support in Manchester
My online counselling sits alongside the help available locally, and it can be worth knowing what else is there. In Manchester, you can refer yourself directly to Manchester Talking Therapies 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.

How does online trauma counselling work from Manchester?
