In person - Walk and Talk Therapy (Manchester)

I’m Fee, a qualified person-centered counsellor with over ten years of experience in the social care sector, working with clients across diverse age groups. My passion lies in supporting individuals through challenges related to mental health, depression, anxiety, burnout, suppressed emotions, and the complexities of personal relationships. I provide a safe and non-judgmental space where clients can explore your thoughts and feelings with openness and authenticity.

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, especially when life is chaotic or uncertain. But finding the right counsellor, someone who truly listens and understands, can be the key to self-awareness and growth. I offer a safe space where you can express yourself freely, without fear of judgment, and work toward understanding yourself and the relationships around you.

Therapy is a deeply personal journey, and no two paths are the same. My approach is person-centered and collaborative, respecting your autonomy while providing the support you need to foster self-acceptance and change. If you’re ready to explore your thoughts, emotions, and personal growth, I am here to support you.

Depression can manifest both physically and mentally. Counselling can be a powerful tool in managing depression, offering a safe space to talk through feelings, identify negative thought patterns, and develop coping strategies. I can help untangle difficult emotions, provide perspective, and guide individuals toward healthier ways of thinking and behaving. Having a dedicated person to listen, support, and offer guidance can make a huge difference, especially when depression feels isolating.

I provide a safe and supportive space for my clients to explore and understand their anxiety. Through compassionate guidance and tailored coping strategies, I help individuals identify triggers, manage symptoms, and develop resilience. My approach empowers clients to gain self-awareness, build confidence, and regain control over their emotions, fostering a greater sense of calm and emotional well-being.

Relationships shape so much of our lives, but they can also bring challenges. As we grow, the dynamics of our relationships shift, leaving us uncertain about where we stand. If you’re struggling with these changes, I can support you in setting healthy boundaries, navigating difficult emotions, and making choices that align with your emotional well-being.

Burnout is something many of us experience, whether from work, family responsibilities, or simply the demands of daily life. When exhaustion takes hold, it affects sleep, concentration, and overall mental clarity. If you’re feeling drained, I can help you recognize and work through the effects of burnout, supporting you in finding balance and reclaiming your sense of self.

Triggers, whether rooted in childhood or shaped by adulthood, can deeply influence how you think, feel, and interact with the world. You don’t have to face them alone. I can guide you in understanding your emotional responses, accepting yourself, and developing strategies to heal and move forward in a way that feels right for you.
