Being a therapist or counsellor in private practice can be a lonely job, even when we have regular clinical supervision and attend CPD events. I hold a bi-monthly Therapist Network & Support meeting at The Sand & Sound Centre, in Hyde, Tameside, usually on a Monday or Wednesday, 10.30am to 12noon.
The list below is of my trusted colleagues working in Greater Manchester and High Peak area as well as online, most of whom are regular attendees at our Therapist Network & Support Group meeting.
As I know them in person, some over many years, I can whole-heartedly recommend them as compassionate, dedicated and skilful professionals.
