My name is Vik (they/them), I'm a person-centred counsellor based in Manchester. I specialise in: LGBTQ+ (particularly trans and non-binary) issues; neurodiversity; ethical non-monogamy/polyamory; and domestic abuse. I also have lived experience with: disability; kink relationships; depression; and anxiety.
I'm white, working class, neurodiverse, queer (trans non-binary), and ethically non-monogamous. I am trained in person-centred counselling, which means that I will support you so that you can grow your self-confidence and discover your own solutions. I offer a warm and non-judgemental space for you to safely explore any and all issues you'd like to bring to our sessions.
And because many people are curious about their therapists, in my spare time I enjoy playing video games and ttrpgs (like dungeons and dragons), and enjoy a good character-driven TV series or movie. I love animals but am not lucky enough to have my own currently, and instead content myself with some plants (and my friends' pets!).

Accessibility Comments
The building has no steps into the ground floor. There are 2 lifts in addition to stairs. The entrance has an intercom that might be a little high for wheelchair users, but is within reach. the interior doors are a little heavy and may be slightly inconvenient for those with physical impairments.

Fees statementI endeavour to offer some reduced-fee (concessionary) sessions, availability permitting. Reduced-fees are for those who struggle to cover the costs due to financial hardship, for example: those receiving benefits, those on very low income, students, etc. Reach out and I am happy to discuss the possibility of reduced fees.
