Why Beacon?
We are an award winning charity that has been dedicated to improving the mental health and emotional resilience of our community for 40 years.
Our practitioners are all qualified and experienced. But they work at Beacon because they share Beacon’s values; because they care about you; and because they go out of their way to make you welcome and to hear your voice.
Why Beacon?
Beacon is a leading provider of psychological therapies in Greater Manchester and beyond. The extensive range of skills and experience offered by our pool of qualified paid and volunteer counsellors mean we help people address a broad spectrum of harmful behaviours and underlying mental or emotional health issues. Our team responds to a wide range of issues, supporting people in a way that suits them – we don’t believe in choosing a quick fix over a lasting change and like to get to the root of a problem.
