Women's Issues Counselling in Birmingham

Hi, my name is Gemma and I’m a Clinical Psychologist with 20 years experience in the NHS and independent practise. I specialise in supporting people who are experiencing psychological difficulties due to a physical health problem, perhaps from illness, injury, a medical problem or a long -term condition. I have particular interest and expertise in pain management, oncology, palliative care and women's health (e.g. peri-menopause, fertility).

I am a Individual and Relationship Counsellor, with a background education in Clinical Psychology, Applied Psychology with Counselling and Relational Therapy. My holistic approach and blend of integrative therapies, supports my main focus, which is to establish and maintain a trusting therapeutic relationship, with you, so that you feel safe and confident enough to work through your difficulties, affecting you and/or your relationships.

I’m Emily, a qualified counsellor and therapist with over 10 years’ experience. I work exclusively online using a ‘Person-Centred’ approach, which means sessions focus on what will help clients, supporting them to find their own solutions and better understand themselves. I know how daunting it can be to ask for help, and how confusing and overwhelming it can be to find the right help. If you have made it this far, then you have taken the first brave step towards changing your story. I offer a warm, compassionate, and non-judgemental style of counselling; it is important to me that my clients feel safe, valued, and understood.

I feel passionate about helping other women thrive. So, I typically work with women, who are looking to effect change in their lives. Over the years, I have worked with thousands of women, who felt stuck, with little or no control over their personal or professional lives. They reported feeling hopeless, frustrated, and tired of the status quo. Some, saw their identity no longer aligning to their values, or their purpose threatened by the natural order of things like children leaving, unworkable relationships, loss of loved ones, stress at work, or hormonal changes and even traumatic experiences that left them wondering...What Next?

It's not easy accessing therapy and it's natural to feel worried about being understood or having to explain aspects of your identity and culture to a stranger. I offer a space where you don't need to do that, so we can get to work on the things you need help with. I have a gentle, trauma-informed approach where I put your safety first and where you can progress at your own pace. Sessions are always collaborative, which means that your input and feedback are a key part of the process as you're the expert in your own life and what you need to feel better.

Hello, I am Dr Rima Lamba. I'm a feminist counselling psychologist with an interest in the unique experiences of women from a variety of ethnic and cultural backgrounds. I work closely with women who have struggled with self esteem & identity, relationship issues, difficulties in motherhood, life transitions, attachment and early trauma, and transgenerational trauma. I am particularly interested in the structural power differences that impact people, so I work closely on issues to do with patriarchy, race, culture and more. I also work with a team of therapists who can support clients, including adult families.

I help adult clients to get the most out of their future by exploring and understanding their present (or their past, if necessary). I can also work with qualified or trainee therapists on their personal development. I also offer clinical supervision to trainee or qualified psychotherapists. I am currently accepting new supervisees but not clients.

Hello I am Kelly. It can feel a real struggle trying to find the right Counsellor. It also takes a lot of courage to reach out. I can offer you a safe place without judgement to work through issues you consider you need help with.

Finding a therapist can feel tricky and even overwhelming with so many options. I can reassure you that I work in a confidential way, and I am fully accredited, experienced and insured to support you to make the changes you are looking to make in your life.

Are you struggling to thrive or feeling that you aren't good enough? You may feel at the mercy of your emotions or a lack of emotion. Maybe you can't stop worrying or are unable to find motivation. When dealing with these kinds of difficulties, being listened to carefully, without judgement can help. I will encourage you to understand your situation from different angles and to explore how you view and approach the world and how your past has shaped your current reactions. We will then address how you might better be able to meet your own needs and live more authentically and meaningfully going forward.

Do you feel you don’t have goals or you can’t achieve them although you have tried everything? Do you feel paralysed or overwhelmed facing certain situations? Do you feel everything is annoying or your anger, sadness or fear last for long time? Do you feel stuck with some thoughts and you can’t stop overthinking them? Do you see these features within a member of your family? I think everyone will feel like this over the course of our lives, even it can be adaptative. However, sometimes we can struggle to find clarity and understanding , at the same time that respect both ourselves and others.

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. I will listen to you with great attention and respect. For 10 years I have helped many people to reach a place of acceptance and fresh insight on how to move forward positively. I am able to work in a Solution Focused way to assist you identify your strengths, achieve your goals and regain a greater sense of purpose.

Sometimes life can feel like a struggle, a struggle that you feel alone with. It doesn't matter how many people are around you or not, the feeling remains the same, isolation and a lack of support. Interactions with others may not feel authentic, they may bring up feelings of anxiety, a lack of safety or even feelings of deficiency or self-blaim. And the most confusing part is that your experience of yourself alone, or with others, makes little sense.
