About Barry Heap

I work as a person centered counsellor and I seek to work with clients in an open, non-judgemental and empathic manner. I have close links to the gay community in both Manchester and Warrington. I am a LGBT affirmative therapist and I am working towards accreditation in this field. Although it is an area that I work within I am not limited to engaging solely with LGBT clients I have experience within the following areas: Bereavement Human Sexualities Addictions Abuse (sexual, emotional physical) Body issues and eating disorders Relationships Harassment and historic bullying Family issues Work Life pressure including stress and redundancy Self-confidence and self-esteem This list is not intended to be exhaustive but is intended to give a brief resume of my experience Presently i offer counselling over Skype and i am looking to be working on a face to face appointment basis in the near future. My practice website is thephoenixcounselling.wordpress.com I am an associate writer at Counselling Tutor also write for The Gay Uk. Some of these articles have been used to promote and justify why regional LGBT events are important.
