My name is Bev Manchester, and I am a Master of Counselling Psychology (MC) graduate and Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC). I offer client-centred, trauma-informed counselling, supporting individuals through life transitions, injury recovery, and the process of returning to work. I bring both professional training and lived experience to my work. As a former farmer and grandmother, I have a grounded understanding of life’s challenges. I also work as a NeuroMovement® practitioner, a somatic-based approach that supports the connection between the brain and body. This informs my work with stress, injury recovery, chronic pain, and the emotional impact of being away from work. I see counselling as a collaborative process. You are the expert in your own life, and my role is to walk alongside you, helping you reconnect with your strengths, build practical supports, and take meaningful steps forward. I believe change happens when people feel understood, supported, and capable again.
