Welcome!
Hi, my name is Gordon. I'm a psychotherapist working in private practice based in the Northwest of England.
My clients often ask about different mental health problems and which resources may be useful for them to use. I created this site to provide them an easy place to come to find the information they are interested in.
​
I am classically trained in Humanistic therapies but have experience in a wide range of other techniques including CBT, Creative therapies and Compassion based therapies.
​
If you think you or one of your friends / family may be experiencing mental health problems then please give me a call and I'll see what I can do to help.
There is a misconception that traumatic experiences make you stronger but that’s not true.
Trauma didn’t make me strong, it broke me.
It shattered hopes and dreams, it stole segments of my life, it made me doubt not only myself but
everyone around me.
The resilience you see now was a conscious choice to keep going, a refusal to give up.
To believe in light whilst shrouded in darkness, to believe in a version of myself I couldn’t quite see
yet.
In surviving long days of sadness and endless nights of despair, pushing through fear and
hopelessness, anxiety and grief.
In trusting I could overcome something which seemed intent on destroying me.
So, the strength you admire today isn’t a result of trauma, it’s a result of hard work, a quest for
safety and an ambition for better so powerful, I created an island of peace in a sea full of chaos.
One of my clients wrote this poem about their experiences of trauma. I thought it so beautiful that I asked them if i could publish it on my website, they kindly agreed.

It’s difficult to express how much Gordon’s support has helped me. I was linked up with him when I had just come out of an abusive relationship, and he helped me to rebuild myself from a very dark place. I felt safe enough with him to share things that I’ve never shared with anyone. His empathy and expert knowledge of abuse dynamics as well as counselling skills have helped me to be the strongest I have ever been. Now that I’m healthy, he continues to offer me a safe place for support when I face life’s bumps, or when things from the past resurface. I feel lucky to have found him.
