Couples Counselling in Birmingham

I am a Chartered Clinical Psychologist working with adult clients who want to gain more out of their life and relationships, and overcome problematic thoughts, feelings and behaviours that hold them back. I specialise in treating anxiety/panic attacks, depression/self-esteem, relationship /attachment issues, trauma/abuse as child or adult, domestic abuse, loss/bereavement, disability/health conditions. With each client I develop a shared understanding of problems and the aims that are important for them. I offer tailored approaches to reduce problems, improve wellbeing and enable each client to move towards their aims.

Hi, my name is Hope. I know, a pretty good name for a therapist! I am an Integrative Psychotherapist. My aim and approach in therapy is to help you find your own path to the life you wish to live. We are all uniquely different and have different reactions to life and life events. I can help you work through some things you might find difficult. For example: Anxiety; Depression; Trauma; Relationship Issues. In order to heal and progress, we must first understand our emotions, what they are and where they come from. From here can make decisions to do something different, to break the patterns that no longer serve us in our life.

My main work consists of Couples counselling as well as trauma focused work, which includes childhood trauma. The work involves psycho education around brain fragments, where clients work to assess when they are operating from the frontal lobe and when they switch to the limbic system where they are reliving old trauma memories. Since Covid there has been an increased demand for couples work. A lot of work is around working with couples in troubled relationships. I work with children and young people who have experienced trauma and sexual abuse as well as bereavement support work.

The relationships and experiences that we have, shape the way that we understand the world around. These can make us feel uneasy, and we need to think out aloud. Having an objective ear can help to better understand ourselves. This can be related to personal relationships, our working life, family challenges, life events and many aspects of the world around us. I offer a space that works ethically, and within the boundaries of confidentiality and safeguarding. I aim to support exploration of how challenges and concerns can be overcome in a collaborative way and at your pace. I offer individual counselling.

Do you feel stuck, lost and alone in life? Do you feel overwhelmed by your problems and struggle to understand why you feel so unhappy and unfulfilled? Do you worry about letting people get emotionally close to you and so tend to distance yourself from others? Yet then feel isolated and deeply unhappy? Have you always felt different or as though there was something wrong with you? Do you have a longing to understand yourself and feel an emotional connection with people in your life? I have worked with many people with these kinds of problems. It is likely that you experienced emotional neglect or trauma as a child.

I can help you explore and make sense of previous events and recurring patterns in your life such as childhood experiences, trauma, relationship problems and breakdowns. By exploring your issues in the confidential space I offer, your understanding of how you have arrived at this current position in life will increase.

No question is too big or small to bring to therapy. Perhaps you have a sense that something in your life isn’t feeling quite right and would like to make sense of this, or perhaps you are struggling with issues within relationships with loved ones and would like for these to improve. It may be that you have been struggling with low mood, depression or anxiety and have taken the first step of seeking support. As a Systemic Psychotherapist, I work with Families, Couples and Individuals. I work in a way which is collaborative, recognising and drawing upon people’s strengths.

I believe that a comfortable client-therapist connection built on mutual trust and respect will form the foundation of our ‘therapeutic alliance’ and the effective work that we do. I try to establish and maintain this type of relationship by providing a confidential space which is free from judgement for my clients to talk with someone about their concerns, whatever they may be. I privilege each person’s individuality, working in a client-centred way to honour difference and diversity and respect the uniqueness of each one of my clients.

So many questions, issues and challenges, that we all think and feel at times with a different level of intensity, that needs a safe space where you can reflect and explore your feelings, thoughts and behaviour.
