I work as an integrative counsellor and psychotherapist in Manchester. This means I draw on different therapeutic approaches to suit your individual needs, rather than using a single fixed method.

My core approach is person-centred, so our counselling sessions are led by your pace, your story, and what feels most important to you.

I specialise in men’s mental health, fatherhood, grief and bereavement, and neurodivergence. However, every client is unique, and the therapy space is always shaped around you and your goals.

I specialise in men’s mental health, fatherhood, grief, bereavement and neurodivergence, but the space is always shaped around you.

I offer both in-person counselling in Manchester and online therapy sessions across the UK.

At Me In Time Counselling & Psychotherapy in Manchester, I offer both counselling and psychotherapy. The main difference is usually the focus and depth of the work.

Counselling often focuses on specific issues and present-day challenges, such as stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties or life changes.

Psychotherapy tends to explore things in greater depth, including long-standing patterns, past experiences, emotions and the parts of your story that have shaped you over time.

In reality, counselling and psychotherapy frequently overlap. What matters most is not the label, but whether the work helps you feel understood, supported and able to move forward in a way that feels right for you.

Yes. A large part of my work at Me In Time Counselling & Psychotherapy in Manchester is focused on supporting men and fathers.

I specialise in men’s mental health and often work with men who are new to counselling or who have never had a safe space to talk before.

At the same time, I work with adults of all genders. The counselling space is open to anyone who feels they might benefit from thoughtful, supportive and respectful therapy.

That’s completely normal. At Me In Time Counselling & Psychotherapy in Manchester, the first session is simply an opportunity to meet, talk things through, and get a sense of how we might work together.

There is no pressure to commit to ongoing counselling. You are welcome to ask questions, take your time, and see whether the approach and the relationship feel like a good fit for you.

Whether you are looking for men’s counselling, grief support, or general psychotherapy, the most important thing is that you feel comfortable and understood.

You don’t need to talk about everything at once. We go at your pace, and you are always in control of what you choose to bring to each session.
