Phil McEvoy (PhD) is a BPC registered adult psychodynamic psychotherapist. He combines a part-time private practice as an adult psychodynamic psychotherapist with work for Age UK Salford. 

Phil will facilitate a day’s training at GCS to think about:

  • How, as counsellors, we can best communicate and work with individuals with a dementia diagnosis.
  • Help to support someone to communicate with an individual with a dementia diagnosis.
  • We will consider what an individual with dementia would identify as a good conversation.
