My psychotherapy practice is currently online using the secure encrypted video platform VSee, therefore issues like physical location, disabled access or social anxiety for example, are not barriers to receiving psychotherapy or counselling support.
I live near Chorlton in South Manchester and I offer low cost services for those people on low incomes, so please contact to discuss fees. I am committed to offering an inclusive service where income limitations shouldn't be a barrier to receiving psychotherapy or counselling. Once you have downloaded the VSee messenger app I normally arrange an initial appointment to check our VSee connection is working appropriately.
