Greater Manchester > Manchester > M : 2 > Linda Jones-Hargreaves Name:   Linda Jones-Hargreaves    I practise at:   Friends Meeting House, Mount Street, Manchester M2   Website:   http://lindajoneshargreavescounselling.webs.com/     Phone:   07930119099      Prof. membership:   BACP  -  British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy   I believe in the person centred ethos that everybody given the right environment has the ability to grow. I offer clients a safe, non judgemental & confidential environment in which they are free to talk about their experiences and issues. I work predominantly as a person centred therapist but I am also training in CBT and can offer this alongside PC counselling. I aim to treat each client as an individual and therefore I am open to using expressive therapies which can enhance the counselling experience. I am a member of the BACP and work within their code of ethics and I am also a member of the FHCP (Faculty of Health Care Counsellors & Psychotherapists). I am currently working towards BACP accreditation. I am also currently training to gain my certificate in CBT with The Manchester Centre for CBT and in autumn 2010 I will start my Msc in Counselling Studies at the University of Salford.
