Mr David Healey

CBT Psychotherapist

“I am an experienced, competent and compassionate Cognitive Behavioural Therpist that can work face to face, via Skype or by telephone.”

About Me

Feeling overwhelmed or stuck? I offer a compassionate and experienced space for adults seeking clarity. As a psychotherapist, I help you explore challenges and develop practical coping strategies. We can work collaboratively, using approaches like CBT, to understand patterns and find new ways forward. My aim is to create a supportive environment where you feel truly heard. We can connect face-to-face, via Skype, or by telephone. This helps you navigate difficulties with confidence.

Approach

When life feels overwhelming I steer our sessions toward practical steps and clearer thinking so progress feels manageable. In Manchester or remotely by secure video or phone, we work at a steady, collaborative pace that respects your time and privacy. Sessions are focused and skill‑based — we test ideas with behavioural experiments, make sense of patterns together and use brief tasks between meetings to build confidence. This way of working often suits adults ready for structured, achievable change.
