Your Trusted Counselling Partner in Macclesfield
Silk Counselling was founded on the belief that everyone deserves a safe, non-judgmental space to explore life's challenges. With over a decade of experience in the field, I transitioned from a commercial career to pursue my passion for supporting others through personal growth and emotional well-being. My practice is built on a foundation of empathy, integrity, and professional excellence, offering tailored therapeutic approaches to meet individual needs. I hold advanced qualifications in integrative counselling, including specialist training in cognitive behavioural therapy, transactional analysis, and online counselling modalities.As a member of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy, I adhere to rigorous ethical standards while continuously expanding my expertise through supervised practice and professional development.
