Life in Stockport
Why people in Stockport reach out
Stockport blends comfortable suburbs with tougher inner areas on Manchester's southern edge, and the commute into the city shapes many lives. Long days, high housing costs and the contrast between affluent and struggling neighbourhoods all add to the pressures people carry.
When the week runs on the early train and the late return, an hour you take from home removes the very journey that stops many people starting.
Stockport sits on Manchester's southern edge; its main hospital is Stepping Hill Hospital, run by Stockport NHS Foundation Trust.
The relationship counselling itself
Relationship counselling here, for couples or individuals, slows down the pattern you are caught in and builds healthier ways of hearing and being heard.
The approach is the same wherever you live, so rather than repeat it on every page you can read it in full — the methods, what each session covers and fees — on the main relationship counselling page and on how I work.
How online sessions work
Sessions run over a secure, encrypted video link held to the same strict BACP confidentiality as meeting in person. After a free fifteen-minute call to check we are a good fit, you join each session from any private space using a phone, tablet or laptop — no software to install, no waiting room and no journey at either end.

Finding support in Stockport
My online counselling sits alongside the help available locally. In Stockport, you can refer yourself directly to NHS talking therapies for anxiety and depression, with no GP referral needed. You can find support through the NHS Talking Therapies finder.
Private sessions with me usually mean you can start sooner and stay with the same counsellor throughout; I am glad to work alongside any NHS or GP support you already have.

If you need urgent help now
This is not a crisis service. If anyone is in immediate danger call 999. For urgent mental health support, call NHS 111 and choose the mental health option. The Samaritans are free, day or night, on 116 123, or text SHOUT to 85258.
Stockport questions
Online Relationship Counselling in Stockport: common questions
Can I get online relationship counselling if I live in Stockport?
Yes. I work with people right across Stockport, from the centre and the old town outwards, and anywhere else in North West, by secure video — no need to travel to Hove, and just as confidential as meeting in the room.
Can I come on my own, without my partner?
Yes. A great deal can change when one person shifts the pattern; you do not need to attend as a couple to do useful work.
Can we join the session from different locations?
Yes. Online makes it easy for couples in different places, or juggling childcare, to attend together.
Will you take sides?
No. We look at the pattern the two of you create together and where it gets stuck, not at who is to blame.
