Benefits of Talking to a Private Therapist
100% Private & Confidential
Whatever you want to talk about, it goes no further. You don’t have to worry about things you say being stored on a government computer in the NHS. Everything stays between us. Our clients feel much more comfortable knowing that our counselling is 100% Private. It allows our clients to completely relax and open up to talk about what is really on their minds. Only then can we help them work through their issues and help them create a better life.
Personalised Support Tailored to You
Our therapist will spend some time getting to know you and learn more about the issues you are struggling with. Once our therapist knows your problems, they can tailor their therapy sessions to your specific needs. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, anger or the loss of a loved one, our tailored approach ensures you get the right tools to effectively work through your issues.
Flexible Appointments
Flexible counselling appointments are particularly beneficial if you have a busy schedule during the day or evening. You need appointments that fit around your life so you can keep going to your appointments without having to miss any sessions. Our private counselling in Manchester works around your busy schedule, not the other way around. Unfortunately, NHS counselling doesn’t offer flexible appointments, so you would have to take whatever appointment time you’ve been given.
You get to choose your therapist
One of the best things about going to private therapy is that you get to choose your therapist. If you scroll down, you will see all the members of the Manchester Counselling Association. When you call to book your free consultation, you can let us know which counsellor you would like to talk to. If you’re unsure which counsellor to choose, we can assign you one best suited to your specific needs. If, for some reason, you don’t feel like you connect with your therapist, you will always have the option to choose another one of our therapists. It’s never happened before, but the option is there. Free NHS counselling in Manchester doesn’t give you that option.
Avoid Long Waiting Lists on the NHS
The NHS waiting list for counselling in Manchester is only getting longer. We’ve had clients who have told us they have had to wait six months before being able to talk to a therapist. Private therapy lets you leapfrog to the front of the queue. If you’re struggling with severe anxiety, depression or any other issue that gets worse over time, you need professional help as quickly as possible.
What to expect from private therapy in Manchester
Once you’ve made the decision to try therapy, the next step is to find the right therapist. Finding the right therapist in Manchester is essential to your healing journey.
There are so many therapists to choose from, so how do you choose the right one? You’ll be pleased to know that we have done all the hard work for you. We hand pick the best counsellors in Manchester to make sure you’re getting the best help possible.
Our free consultations allow you to talk to one of our therapists, ask any questions you might have about counselling and see if you connect well with each other.
We will discuss what type of therapy would be the most suitable for you. We offer counselling, talk therapy, CBT therapy, hypnotherapy and EMDR therapy.
If, after the initial consultation, you don’t feel like you connected with your therapist, you are under no obligation whatsoever to continue having more sessions.
We want your therapy to be a success, and choosing the right therapist is a big part of that.
How much does private counselling in Manchester cost?
We carefully select the best therapists in Manchester to make sure you get the best support possible.
Costs for private therapy in Manchester vary between £50-£100 per session. Therapy costs depend on a clients income, session time, whether they have a disability and the therapist they choose.
We offer reduced rates to students, unemployed people and pensioners.
Payments can be made by bank transfer or cash after each session.
How many therapy sessions will I need?
We offer short-term and long-term counselling services. If you’ve never been to counselling before, your free consultation will be a bit like an assessment. Once our therapist knows more about you, your past history and the challenges you are facing, they will be in a better position to gauge how many sessions you might need.
The amount of counselling sessions required varies from person to person. A person who is struggling with anger issues or relationship problems probably isn’t going to need as many sessions as someone who has experienced severe trauma.
Once we have agreed upon how many sessions you might need, your counselling journey will begin. Your sessions will be approximately 50 minutes long. We will monitor your progress by having regular review points throughout your journey with us. If you’re progressing quicker than we anticipated, we might recommend reducing the amount of sessions you might need.

Testimonials – In Their Own Words
All I can say is hypnotherapy works!!! I’ve been trying to quit smoking for nearly 4 years and failed every time. A friend of mine suggested I try hypnotherapy to try and quit smoking for good, so I did. And it worked! I haven’t touched a cigarette for four months now, and I don’t want to either.
Allison
My counsellor was really amazing. My anxiety and panic attacks were out of control before I started counselling. Now I have it under control, and my life is so much better. Thank you x
Mary
Going to anger management was the best thing I ever did. I was shouting, swearing and losing my temper over things that didn’t really matter. Now that I’ve got my anger under control, I feel much happier, and so does my family.
Mark
I’ve tried private therapy in Manchester before, but the companies I went with didn’t help me very much. Before completely giving up on therapy, I took a chance on trying one of the therapists in the Manchester Counselling Association, and I am so glad I did. I’m in a much happier place now.
Anna
My cocaine addiction was getting way out of hand, so I asked Sam at the Manchester Counselling Association if she could help me get off it. After about four weeks, I no longer craved the drug, and my life is going in a much better direction.
David
My husband and I had been together for over 5 years, but we had drifted apart over the last 2 years. We decided to try marriage counselling to see if we could save our marriage, and luckily, we did. If we didn’t try therapy to try and save our marriage, we wouldn’t be together now.
Molly
Losing my mom to cancer absolutely devastated me. I knew it was coming and thought I was prepared, but I wasn’t. Talking to someone who really understands how cancer affects a family and losing someone you love so much was a great help. I can’t thank you enough 😊
Liam
Deciding to go to therapy for depression was something I should have done a long time ago. My therapist helped me work through my issues and clear my mind.
