Dr. Phil Tyson is a Manchester based Counsellor and Psychotherapist Working with Men and Couples.
Thanks for checking me out. I am a counsellor and psychotherapist based in Manchester in the United Kingdom. I specialise in working with men and couples. I also write a blog about men's well-being and essays on counselling and related themes. This is my brief biography.
I graduated in 1991 with a 1st class Psychology degree and the British Psychological Society Division of Occupational Psychology student prize. This was followed in 1993 by an M.Phil. in H.I.V. Counselling and Support, and, in 2002, with a Ph.D. in Counselling Theory and Counselling Practice. All degrees were awarded by the University of Manchester.
I completed a British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy accredited Diploma in Counselling in 1994, and I have undertaken postgraduate courses in couple counselling and cognitive behavioural therapy. I also hold fitness and nutrition qualifications.
I have worked as a Lecturer in Psychology at Manchester Metropolitan University in the 1990's where I was also a course leader for a degree programme for a spell. I started working in private practice as a men’s therapist in 1996. In addition, I have worked within a variety of organisations including the N.H.S., commercial organisations, the voluntary sector, and N.G.O.’s in therapy, training, supervision, research and management roles.
I am a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and abide by its Code of Ethics. I am a BACP Accredited Counsellor/Psychotherapist and on the United Kingdom Register of Counsellors and Psychotherapists. I am a Graduate Member of the British Psychological Society.
In addition to therapy, I read a lot, and am fanatical about physical health and well-being. I take the opportunity to travel as often as I can. I also have an interest in stand-up comedy, and can sometimes be found (nervously) developing my skills as a comedian on the Manchester 'open mike' comedy circuit.
In addition to my web presence with my blog, and counselling essay site, I am also regularly quoted in national magazines, and appear as a guest on BBC radio where I talk about men's and relationship issues.
