Counselling & Psychotherapy for Children, Teens and Adults

Supporting clients across Trafford, South Manchester, and North Cheshire.

Welcome to The Healing Space - a warm, trauma-informed counselling practice based in Warburton, a peaceful village on the border of Trafford and Cheshire. I offer in-person and online therapy for children aged 7+, teenagers and adults across Altrincham, Sale, Lymm, Warrington, Leigh, Irlam, Urmston, and South Manchester.

Parent Consultancy and Coaching to Support Your Family Life

In addition to counselling, I offer parent consultancy sessions for those wanting practical, forward-focused strategies to support their child’s emotional wellbeing and behaviour.

Also referred to as parent coaching, these sessions are designed to equip you with insight, tools, and confidence to meet your child’s needs, and your own, in a calmer, more connected way.

Parent consultancy is ideal for:

Understanding your child’s needs, especially around neurodiversity or sensory sensitivity
Managing emotional outbursts, anxiety, or transitions
Building confidence in your parenting approach
Developing attuned communication and routines at home

Counselling vs Parent Consultancy - What’s the Difference?

Counselling is a therapeutic space to explore emotional challenges, past experiences, and mental health concerns in a deeper, more reflective way.

Parent consultancy (or coaching) is more structured and goal-oriented. It focuses on practical solutions, parenting tools, and strategies to support everyday challenges and strengthen family relationships.
