Counselling in Birmingham

I know it is hard to seek help and support for yourself. I can provide you with calm, safe and confidential space for you to deal with emotional distress and pain. I offer a warm, trusting environment to help you find your own way towards healing and understanding yourself, giving you the ability to have a fresh prospective on your future. I am a fully qualified counsellor and I practice integrative therapy which can help with a range of short and long-term issues including depression, anxiety, relationships, trauma, bereavement, and low self-esteem. I am kind and approachable and I believe in your ability to change and move on.

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.

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.

We will facilitate open and honest dialogue, so we may explore your concerns, anxieties, pain, trauma, or sadness, and uncover issues you might normally avoid because they feel threatening. This safe confrontation will allow you to learn how to process your challenges in a helpful way which is incredibly powerful, changing how you relate to yourself, others, and your world, thereby offering movement toward healing, growth, and.....joy.

Counselling room in Castle Bromwich, Solihull, Birmingham and online UK. Hello, I warmly welcome you to my page for details of my trauma informed services. There can be times in life where things can feel overwhelming and challenging and it may be hard to reach out for the help and support that you deserve and that feels right for you. Reaching out for help and support is always a sign of strength and never weakness. During these challenging times, I am offering low cost counselling and psychotherapy which can be made available immediately for you through telephone, and online with me, through Teams, Zoom, Skype and WhatsApp.

In my practice, I offer psychological assessment, short term counselling and in-depth work to clients who have a wide range of life issues and problems. I work with individuals and couples from many different social and cultural backgrounds. I also psychologically assess clients for rehabilitation and injury management companies and provide relevant treatment. I am a Chartered Counselling Psychologist registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and the British Psychological Society (BPS)

Graduated from Warwick University with a Person Centred degree. I have been working as a counsellor for almost 13 years. I work with clients of all ages for a varied range of issues and have been contracted by Forward Thinking Birmingham at Open Door for almost 11 years. I have worked all over Birmingham in many schools visiting clients. I am currently working weekly at King Edwards High School and at Heartlands Academy. I also work with clients referred to me by Women’s Aid. Using the person centred approach helps my clients feel accepted and heard no matter what issue they bring. I offer a safe place to talk enabling clarity.

You may be looking here because you are dealing with upsetting or challenging feelings and experiences, feeling overwhelmed, or having troubles in your relationships. If so, psychotherapy could help you. In the psychotherapy sessions you can explore various aspects of your life and feelings, talking about them freely and openly in a way that is rarely possible with friends or family. Bottled-up feelings such as anger, anxiety, grief and embarrassment can become very intense and counselling offers an opportunity to explore them, with the possibility of making them easier to understand.

I work online with clients struggling with the short-term or long-term impact of abuse, loss and trauma. The wounds of parental abuse, narcissistic abuse, betrayal, sexual abuse, spiritual abuse or professional abuse can remain forever open, derailing our lives and preventing us from moving on to find happiness and fulfilment. In my clients' journey toward healing from the pain and loss such experiences have cost them, I accompany my clients back into the hurt of the past to untangle the bonds that anchor them there and teach them skills for coping with the present and developing relationships to help them find a happier future.

You may have gone your entire life not talking about the things that matter to you, or are someone who is comfortable discussing those things with no issues whatsoever. I am here to listen to anyone who is ready to talk. Do you find yourself getting angry and frustrated about things that usually wouldn't bother you? Or is there something from your past that you feel is hindering your ability to have a positive present? We can work on these issues together to help improve the quality of your life and mood.

Seeking out the services of a suitable therapist can be a daunting prospect at the best of times. Perhaps you're currently undergoing a particularly stressful or distressing period in your life, struggling to cope with mounting pressures at home or work, experiencing feelings of sadness or loss, relationship difficulties, or unforeseen changes in your personal circumstances. Maybe you are seeking help with a mental health issue such as anxiety or depression, aiming to find ways of better managing your condition and its impact on your everyday life. Whatever your reasons for seeking therapy, I'm here to offer you my support.

Hello, my name is Daniel, I specialize in helping clients to navigate their way through life's difficult moments. It is my role to create a healing, trusting, and non-judgmental therapeutic relationship to facilitate your growth. As a member of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP), I work to a high professional standard which alongside my life experiences ensures that I bring a level of openness and understanding to each client. I am trauma-informed and I use an integrative approach to support my clients. I have also completed many hours of additional training. I offer sessions to individuals and couples.

I currently have daytime availability for couples seeking therapy and therapists (qualified or trainee) needing supervision. I have some Monday availability for short-term therapy clients. I am a supervisor offering supervision to trainee and qualified psychotherapists and counsellors (or other healthcare/training professionals). I trained at the Centre for Supervision and Team Development (CSTD-Bath), which is the home of the seven-eyed model of supervision. I provide individual and group supervision, as well as offering supervision of supervision for trainee or qualified supervisors.

I am a psychotherapist/counsellor with a background in crisis and clinical mental health. I have worked with couples and individuals with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, life transitions, career challenges as well as physical trauma and/or emotional abuse. I believe in treating everyone with respect, and meet/work with my clients where they are. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, existential, and person-centered

When emotional problems arise it can be difficult to know where to turn and pressures to cope can leave us isolated and desperate. There may be people around who offer their time but feelings of shame and fears can make it difficult to make use of them. It might be that there is no-one to speak to and problems originating in the past are getting in the way of you finding satisfaction in life. Traumas can remain unprocessed and present themselves in everyday life. Psychotherapy is a way of exploring oneself and relationships to try to make sense of the patterns and issues that are blocking you.

Hello, how are you really feeling? Anxious? Stressed? Distraught? Concerned? Pondered? Or just not your usual self? Do you question your future relationship with yourself or others? Perhaps you find it hard to say no, and always prioritise others needs and wants, ignoring your own. Maybe assumptions and perceived ideas has become the default way of communicating, or have you checked out and decided saying nothing is best? 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.

I believe every person is the expert in their own life. Together we can explore the circumstances that are feeling difficult for you, with space to reflect, hear yourself think and take a deeper look at what might be behind what's happening for you. Whether you're feeling stuck, struggling to overcome painful experiences, or feeling trapped in patterns you can't seem to change. I won't tell you what to do, but I will help you to find your own insights and clarity to process your feelings and move forward in ways that work for you.

My approach is compassionate and empathetic and I work collaboratively with you to identify any emotions and challenges you may be facing, aiming to help you to feel heard, accepted and understood. I hope to help you to make sense of such feelings and to develop a greater understanding of unseen behaviours that may underlie psychological distress.

Are you feeling low or anxious? Are you unsure about the future of a relationship? Maybe you are feeling that you aren't living the life you were meant to lead. Whatever your challenges may be, I am here to offer support. Therapy is a process of growth and self-discovery, and in my sessions I promote self-awareness and healing by encouraging a positive outlook and the adoption of new attitudes and behaviours. I have the psychological tools and professional experience to help you live the life you deserve.
