I am a qualified counsellor, registered with BACP. My training specialises in supporting children and adolescents, with which I have extensive experience, having worked in both Primary and Secondary Schools for several years. I am empathic and accepting of all. No young person should have to go it alone. Every behaviour is a form of communication, often of an unmet need. When we meet that need, the behaviours can change. Early intervention through counselling support, can help the young person make sense of what is going on in their minds, bodies and lives.

Are you struggling with feeling powerless? Is sadness or depression weighing you down? It may be that constant anxiety, worry, or low self-esteem prevents you from progressing in life. You may feel that your past is continually replayed in the present, causing confusion. Whatever the problem, you may find that your usual way of coping and addressing issues may not be effective, leaving you feeling helpless. I have found profound relief and liberation through my therapeutic journey. Today, as a fully qualified Integrative Counsellor, with passion and tenderness, I offer this support to you.

Hi I'm May, I offer person centred counselling sessions in the Manchester area and online. I offer a counselling service that is safe, empowering and human - connection with a real person. Over the years I've worked with people experiencing emotional distress as a counsellor, support worker and aromatherapist. I try to be aware of my privilege and how this might affect our counselling relationship.

I specialise in working with LGBTQ+ clients and those who have always felt ‘different’ in some way. Your identity and experiences might make you worry that most therapists out there wouldn’t get you. You might be looking for help because you are experiencing anxiety, relationship challenges, difficulties making decisions or setting boundaries. It might seem like you have too many overwhelming feelings, or rarely any feelings at all. I understand that your identity may not be the reason you’re coming to therapy, but you don’t want to have to spend your session time educating your therapist about it.

Life can be difficult to manage at times, especially when stressors build up, or we experience difficult events. Our early life experiences may also impact our view of ourselves, our behaviour, and our mood. This can prevent us from feeling at our best. Sometimes we may not know why we feel down or worried. Psychological talking therapy acts to increase understanding of why a person may feel a certain way and offers approaches to improving mood and mental wellbeing. Foremost, my aim is always to create a respectful and supportive environment where you will be listened to, and together we can work towards your therapy goals.

Hello, I imagine you’re experiencing distressing effects of stressful life events or past trauma. I understand the courage it takes to acknowledge where you’re at and to explore support. Informed by effective therapies, I help people identify needs, understand difficulties with more compassion and practice techniques to support desired outcomes e.g. address anxiety/depression to build Wellness; process disturbing memories and thoughts to build Agency; explore stuckness/feeling lost to build on Values; examine disconnection to build Engagement; recognise shame to build Self-Compassion. WAVES that support psychological well-being.
