Counselling in Birmingham
Every person is individual and I believe that your lifetime and childhood experiences shaped the person that you are today. Whether good or bad my role is to help you sift through significant life moments to assimilate, accept and refute the things that make up your true identity. Understanding the injustices we sometimes feel can help us on our journey to become empowered and autonomous individuals.

Hello and welcome to my profile. You've taken the most important first step to finding some help. Life can be pretty tough at times.

Every now and then life puts in front of us some obstacles that can be difficult to overcome without support. When left to our own accords these hurdles can often take us on a downward spiral, and lead us to feel insufficient, insecure, anxious, stressed or even depressed. It may be a familiar relationship that brings in the challenge or a social, behavioural, financial or work related issue. The worries that keep you up at night may be due to many reasons but if they are taking over and leave you feeling isolated in life, it might be time to seek support from someone who can help navigate through the difficult period.

Everyday life can be a challenge for some of us. The experience of life transitions, relationship issues, struggling to cope at work or childhood trauma may leave you with feelings of anxiety, worry and/or helplessness. Counselling may help you recognise these issues, gain an understanding into why and how they develop and given the correct tools, how to identify these triggers, adjust your mindset allowing you to move forward.

Starting therapy can be daunting and may evoke a number of different emotions including worry and fear. Yet, it also offers hope of change and self-growth, of overcoming the obstacles you’re faced with that stop you from living a more fulfilled life. I work with people looking to overcome any issue, in particular around race, gender, culture and sexuality. I also have extensive practical experience supporting survivors of sexual and domestic abuse.

You feel like you can’t cope, you’re fed up, you’ve had enough. Your life isn’t what you want it to be. Living has become hard and there’s no joy in your world. It’s like everyone else except you is happy. You’re haunted by your past. You think you’ll never be happy again. You feel alone like no one else understands how hard your life is at the moment. On the outside you look fine but inside you feel like you’re dying. Everything you do feels like an act to look like you’re okay. You don’t know how to change things or what to do about it anymore.

My approach is one of curiosity, compassion and warmth. I believe in a collaborative approach to therapy; you are the expert in your experience, while I possess knowledge and skills to help you understand why you think, feel and act the way you do. Together we can discuss and explore your experience and formulate your difficulties, so that you can gain clarity on what might be keeping you “stuck” in unhelpful patterns and make changes in order to live a more meaningful, fulfilling life. I believe the ultimate goal in life is to become more and more yourself and that being able to live authentically is what makes us most fulfilled.
