About me

Hi, I'm Jamie. I'm an accredited therapist, and I have a BSc (Hons) in Therapeutic Counselling...

Thank you for taking the time to view my webpage. I understand how daunting or even nerve-wracking it is to consider therapy and to find a therapist, so I appreciate the steps you've taken so far and for being here with me.

I would love to be part of your support system. Having someone next to you on your healing journey is so important - you are not alone and don’t have to suffer in silence. I am passionate about providing a calm, gentle and patient relationship for all my clients. 

I deeply care about the well-being of everyone I work with. I have met people from all walks of life, everyone is welcome, and I want to hear your story. You deserve a space without judgment to be seen and heard. 

I draw on several theories of change to help you get to where you want to be. My priority is to develop our working relationship so you feel safe; we have all the time we need to build that foundational trust. Although we may be working with deep feelings, counselling can be a really fun and enlightening experience. 

As a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, I understand what it’s like to feel different from ‘normal’ and work with clients empathetically and non-judgmentally, believing that our differences are what make us all unique and beautiful.

My own life experiences have taught me the value of having a safe and secure therapy space to process traumatic life events and unmanageable feelings; it's a privilege for me to be able to help and support my clients.

I'm passionate about helping people heal from childhood traumas, increasing self-confidence, and strengthening the relationships you have with yourself and with others. I work well with people who aim to be kinder to themselves and are curious about healthier boundaries.

I'm dedicated and experienced in providing support to individuals from marginalised populations and those affected by loss. Through the practice of self-compassion and self-nurturing, I aim to enhance self-worth and self-acceptance while also enabling others to experience less fear and anxiety about painful emotions.

As an integrated therapist, there isn't just one therapy strategy that can benefit a client in every circumstance. Instead, I consider you as a unique individual, using aspects of several approaches to support you in your exploration and problem-solving.

How does it work? 

I work both online using Microsoft Teams from my private working space and face-to-face in St Ann's Square in Manchester City Centre.

 I offer a 15-minute introduction via Microsoft Teams, during which we can discuss what brings you to counselling, ask one another questions, and see if we're compatible, or If you feel confident about working with me, we could skip that bit and discuss availability.

I offer both weekly and bi-weekly sessions to support people with lower incomes. I also accept private health insurance with Bupa, Aviva, Vitality Health, Nuffield, and WPA.

Having someone next to you on your healing journey is so important—it helps you feel less isolated and alone. I deeply care about the well-being of everyone I work with. I have met people from all walks of life; everyone is welcome.

Member organisations

school Registered / Accredited

Registered / Accredited

Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.

Wheelchair user access info
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.
