We are a private psychotherapy practice located at the heart of West Didsbury, South Manchester. We offer individual psychotherapy and counselling, group therapy, couple therapy and marriage counselling as well life coaching, creativity coaching and employee assistance for the private and public sector. We provide a safe and private environment for you to feel comfortable.
You can read some of the positive testimonials we get from clients on the right. Your privacy and confidentiality are important to us and our clients rarely meet in the waiting room. We offer a wide range of therapies to fit your individual needs and wants. Not everybody who is experiencing difficulties needs psychotherapy or counselling. Often, especially when it comes to career and life goals, coaching is the better approach.
Both Coaching and Psychotherapy improve an individual's well-being, emotional resilience and confidence. However, despite the occasional overlap there are significant differences. To help you decide which is the better approach here is the difference: Counselling and psychotherapy works with mental health diagnosis and aims to resolve an individual's psychological dysfunction and ill health.

The Centre is a private practice furnished to our clients' needs.
Coming to a talk to someone you don't know yet about your private life, thoughts and needs can be a daunting experience.
Therefore your comfort is very important to us.
Many clients have commented on how comfortable the space is and how safe they feel.
We believe that although the relationship between therapist and client is one of the most important factors, the space provides an indication as to how much thought a therapist puts into their client's well-being.

Psychotherapy helps gaining insight into what makes us who we are and understand our difficulties.
By looking at thinking, feeling, beliefs and behavioural patterns, as well at individual history, relationships and motivation a greater understanding can then lead to positive change.
Depending on the nature of your problem, therapy can be short or long term and can be provided on a one-to-one basis, for couples, families and within psychotherapy groups.

Although the terms psychotherapy and counselling are used interchangeably and there are similarities, there are also distinct differences.
Both the main UK governing bodies UKCP and BACP have different views on whether there actually is a difference.
Here we focus mainly on what qualifications and training are required to either become a psychotherapist or counsellor and what each can and cannot do when working with clients.
Psychotherapy training takes at least 4 years at post-graduate level, however most train longer.
