Online or Altrincham Counselling

Hi, I’m Debbie Daltrey, a fully qualified and registered counsellor. Sometimes it helps to talk, and sometimes it can help to talk to somebody who is impartial, non-judgemental, and in complete confidence. I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP) for which I follow the code of ethics that are available on request.

I can help you work through any emotional difficulties you may be experiencing. Together, we can explore these issues in a way that ensures you feel heard, valued and understood. If you are struggling with loss, it may be reassuring to know that I previously worked as a bereavement counselllor for Macmillan, and I am also a registered Anxiety UK counsellor.

Through our work, you will gain a clearer understanding of how anxiety symptoms develop, and what you can do to change them. Counselling for anxiety can help you to find new perspectives, reduce negative thinking, and increase feelings of calm, confidence and control. Our focus will be on how you want your life to be and supporting you toward that positive outcome.

Counselling is available no matter where you’re based — whether you’re in Altrincham, or online. I offer flexible, confidential sessions tailored to suit your schedule and needs.

I work as an integrative therapist, which means I can use a range of therapeutic tools where appropriate and if you wish. I am trained in the person-centred approach to counselling, and also in CBT skills, NLP, EFT, coaching, and solution-focused hypnotherapy.

We work as a team, and any therapeutic approach will always be discussed and agreed together.

Person-centred Counselling offers a non-judgemental space for you to explore your difficulties without analysis or interpretation. Instead, the approach is based on unconditional positive regard, empathy, and congruence. These core conditions help create a trusting therapeutic relationship where you feel safe to explore your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours

Many of my clients across Manchester and Altrincham tell me how much they value having a calm, consistent space to talk — especially when working through stress, anxiety or big life changes.

In this way, counselling can help you rediscover a sense of wellbeing, clarity, and peace. It is founded on the belief that every individual has the ability to create a more positive and fulfilling way of life.

Talking is priceless. You don’t need to face your struggles alone.

Online counselling sessions give you access to expert therapeutic support wherever you are — whether from the comfort of your home in Manchester or on the go in Altrincham.

Counselling for anxiety is one of my specialist areas. If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed or unsure what to do next, I can help you explore the path forward — gently and at your pace.

Counselling online is just as effective as in-person therapy and can often feel even more comfortable for those dealing with anxiety or low mood.
