It's all about relationships - primarily the relationship you have with yourself and how this impacts the relationships with others and the world. Sometimes these relationships become ruptured, and if not repaired, psychological disturbances may result. I will help you the best way to holistically explore these ruptures so that wellbeing is restored. I'm also aware that the need for therapy can arise from a desire to promote personal development so you achieve a greater understanding of yourself.

Stress, anxiety, depression is no longer such a taboo subject, yet we often tell ourselves, I can cope with this myself or maybe nobody will want to listen because nobody has time, or how about I’m too ashamed and I blame myself so I will cope with this by myself...... Well I am here to offer you the space to speak the unspoken and explore worrying thoughts together. The problem might be a recent incident that has left you feeling unsettled or a long standing concern deep rooted in unresolved trauma that has affected you e.g. sleepless nights, social anxiety, fear, relationship issue, performance at work, mood, self worth.

Solution Focused Brief (SFBT) Counsellors
Solution-focused therapy in Birmingham, sometimes called "brief therapy," focuses on what clients would like to achieve through therapy rather than on their troubles or mental health issues. The therapist will help the client envision a desirable future, and then map out the small and large changes necessary for the client to undergo to realize their vision. The therapist will seize on any successes the client experiences, to encourage them to build on their strengths rather than dwell on their problems or limitations.

How can I tell if a counsellor is right for me?
Counsellors and therapists in Birmingham are able to work with a wide range of issues.

For example, you can find CBT Therapists in Birmingham who focus on a specific issue, as well as DBT Therapists in Birmingham who help clients with new skills to manage their emotions and relationships.

If you're seeking a marriage counsellor in Birmingham you'll find that most therapists are trained in marriage counselling or couples counselling in Birmingham and couples therapy. And they welcome families for family counselling in Birmingham or family therapy in Birmingham.
