Counselling in DY8

Life often presents us with challenges and each one of us develops their own ways of dealing with adversities. Sometimes, however, we might feel ‘lost’, incongruent with how we would like to be, how we would like to relate with others and engage with life. Our difficulties may present themselves in different forms and we often use words such as depression, anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, panic, phobia, obsessive-compulsive disorder, trauma, relationship difficulties, sexuality concerns, grief and loss to describe our experience.

My name is Kate Alliss and I am a qualified and experienced counsellor based in Stourbridge, West Midlands. I will offer you a safe space to talk confidentially about your difficulties without fear of being judged, with empathy and with understanding. When we experience difficult times in our lives, we often struggle to understand our emotions and often find it hard to cope with our day to day lives. By working with you I will try to help you make sense of your thoughts, feelings, responses and reactions to overcome the obstacles in your life that prevent you from feeling happy and fulfilled.

I offer a friendly, supportive and confidential service based in Stourbridge. I work with both young people and adults. I will respond to all enquiries witjin 24 hours and offer a free initial 15 minute phone call to chat about your needs and answer any questions you may have. I can help you with

Being human isn't always easy. We all have times when we can feel overwhelmed by life, whether through trauma, loss and bereavement, anxiety or depression or many other issues, and this can lead us to feeling stuck. Whether you are seeking help for a specific short-term issue or whether you want to work longer term on deep rooted issues, counselling can really help. Talking things through may help you to look at things through a different perspective so that the thoughts and feelings that were overwhelming begin to feel more manageable.

In these challenging times you may be experiencing anxiety, struggling to make sense of your world while coping with existing emotional issues. I understand how difficult this can be and offer a safe, confidential space where we can explore the issues or events that have led you to seek counselling. At various stages in our lives we can struggle to make sense of things, whether in our relationships, working lives, due to bereavement or any major life event. This can result in feelings of anxiety, low self esteem, depression and lack of motivation and energy. We may feel our relationships are in crisis and cannot see a way through.

I am a person-centred counsellor and a registered member of the BACP (MBACP) and an Accredited Member of the NCPS. Providing counselling for many reasons including: depression, anxiety, bereavement, miscarriage, pet bereavement, family problems, relationship difficulties, homelessness, child abuse, domestic violence, power exchange (BDSM), abortion, dyspraxia.

I am Sade and I aim to support you with emotional, psychological and general difficulties. I realize that not everyone has a main 'problem' as such. We sometimes simply want to understand ourselves better, explore our feelings discreetly without judgement and develop healthier relationships. The pressure to succeed, the constant demands on your time, and the fear of asking for help can all contribute to feeling isolated and needing support. Whatever your reason for seeking therapy at this time, I welcome you. I hope we can develop a relationship that supports you in being heard, reaching your goals and dealing with difficult issues.

Hi there, I'm a qualified Clinical Psychologist with over 20 years of experience of helping children, teens and young adults. I'm guessing that if you here you are you looking for some answers and support. Answers as to why life feels so difficult, overwhelming and worrying right now. Support to overcome the challenges you are facing so that life can once again feel more joyful. You may feel this way about yourself or your child. I can help you to understand what is going on and offer support to make positive moves forward towards a more joyful life. If you are struggling, please reach out and I look forward to speaking to you soon.

I have 25 years’ experience as a brief, solution-focused therapist, psychologist and coach, helping people overcome trauma, anxiety, childhood abuse, OCD, ADHD and other problems. The way I work is to help you clarify your goals, identify what it is within you that’s blocking you, find out where this comes from in your biography, and help you to relearn that experience to permanently resolve your problem. This person-centred therapy will enable you fully to overcome your problem, not simply to understand or manage it. Clients have noted how quickly transformational change occurs. 'I feel happier than I've felt since I was 9.'

I believe we are all susceptible, at some point in our lives, to feeling overwhelmed by what life can bring. Sometimes we encounter experiences that are hard for us to come to terms with leaving us in need of support, this may be in the form of a bereavement, a relationship breakdown, a job loss; any event that we struggle to comprehend and understand. Other times a series of events may have taken place that leave us feeling like we are walking under a big black cloud and fail to see a way forward. At times like this counselling can help.

Hi, my name is Alec, and it is a pleasure to meet you. I understand that seeking counselling or therapy can be a deeply personal experience and it can be difficult to take that first step. For this reason, I strive to offer clients a safe, friendly, and compassionate space to explore their difficulties while they learn about themselves and find healthier alternative ways to live their lives. I do not give advice and fully believe you are the expert on how to be you. However, no matter what your difficulty maybe I can offer you empathy, understanding and support as we work together. If you are seeking change, therapy may be helpful.
