Hello, I am Philippa, and I am a psychotherapist based in Altrincham, south Manchester.

Is there something you would like to change in your life, or are you struggling with a life change? Do you feel stuck or overwhelmed? Are you having relationship difficulties? 

I look forward to welcoming you to a warm and safe space where you can experience being truly seen and heard without fear of judgement. I will support you to understand your difficulties so that you are empowered to make lasting and profound changes in your life.

I work with people with a range of personal difficulties. Psychotherapy looks at how our past affects our present, and is suited for people who have more deeply rooted problems, such as self-esteem issues, depression or trauma. I also offer counselling which has more of a focus on the here and now, and is suitable for people who have a specific problem that they need help with, such as a current dilemma, or a bereavement.

My work is grounded in Transactional Analysis, which is an accessible and versatile approach.

I have a background in music performance, and I am a performance anxiety specialist.

It is important that you find a therapist that you feel comfortable with, so I offer a 30 minute consultation free of charge, or an initial full length session at half price. 

The consultation is for you to tell me about the difficulties that you are experiencing, and the changes that you are hoping to make. It is also for you to ask me any questions that you may have. I will give you a copy of my business contract, and you can either take time to consider or arrange further sessions.
