Counselling in WV8

My name is Sophie and I am a clinical psychologist with 18 years experience working in the NHS and private sector. Trained in a variety of shorter-term, evidence based therapies including CBT and EMDR, I deliver individually tailored interventions that enable people to experience lasting, meaningful change in their lives. Within the private sector I work with adults with a range of psychological difficulties including anxiety, depression, OCD, trauma, grief, health issues and relationship difficulties. I also spent many years working in the NHS with people affected by changes in their health, including persistent pain and cancer.

Are you wondering what's happened to the happy family life you once had? Do you feel frustrated with your child's challenging behaviour? Is there something going on in your own life or your intimate relationship that you know is impacting your children and getting in the way of the happy life you deserve? So what's critical for you to resolve right now and what's going to happen if you don't get this sorted?

Hi I'm Lianne Bole and I am a counsellor and psychotherapist, qualified to Masters Degree level. I work with individuals and couples in a quiet private location in Perton Wolverhampton. I also work with young people and children aged five and over. As a former teacher I understand the particular stresses that people working in education experience. I have experience in many areas of counselling including anxiety, depression, relationship issues, work related issues, health problems, bereavement, stress, suicidal thoughts, attachment issues, abuse, anger management and family issues.

A warm welcome to you. I want to help you transform your relationships through understanding yourself and what happens in your communication with others. When you can appreciate why you respond in certain ways and how you can effect change, you can feel liberated and comfortable in moving forward. It is no surprise that at times it can be a troubling event, a new challenge, or some discomfort in your life that compels you to take the time to discover your inner strengths, your own worth, and what it will take to overcome these challenges.

Taking the first step is hard and reaching out to access therapy is the beginning of a journey towards overcoming any concerns you have. Clients come to me as a consultant Systemic Psychotherapist due to my level of expertise. Is you relationship/marriage at risk of breaking down?

Are you struggling with a difficulty in your life and need some help? Do you want to talk to someone who will listen without judgment? Hello. I’m Emma-Jane and I run Elysium Counselling Services in Wolverhampton where I provide counselling to individuals in a contemporary and relaxed setting. My counselling experience is diverse and includes people who have problems with anxiety, depression, feeling sad, relationships, anger, stress and low self esteem. I have also helped people with the emotional trauma of sexual and physical abuse as well as bereavement.

Taking the first step towards counselling can be daunting, but my approach will be compassionate, friendly and supportive. We will work together to identify and resolve your issues in a safe and confidential environment, at a pace that is right for you. Through therapy I can help with a range of issues from anxiety to panic disorder, depression to anger management. As a member of the British Association of Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP), I will always work with you ethically and confidentially. So, if you are looking for a therapist in the Walsall or Wolverhampton (Willenhall) areas in the West Midlands, please get in touch.

Are you experiencing bullying? Do you find yourself reacting in an unhelpful way? Perhaps you are asking yourself, What do I want and why? What is important to me; what do I need? Who do I wish to become? We can look at a structured treatment that you can continue to use beyond the short time we spend together. I can show you how to develop skills for living and you can move towards a more rewarding experience of life.

I help people who have been struggling with moderate/severe levels of stress, depression or anxiety so that you can quickly go from a place of fear, hopelessness and desperation to one of calm, relaxation and inner peace. The only problem is you've been treated poorly by past mental health professionals, tried a million things before which haven't worked and are starting to believe that you cannot be fixed... Unlike most traditional methods, the intensive holistic therapeutic programme (IHTP) targets all aspects of your life; past, present and future so that you can experience life truly free from mental illness - forever.

I am a qualified counsellor with experience of working with individuals, couples and families and also a wide range of issues such as; Stress and Anxiety, Loss and Grief and Relationship issues, drug and alcohol issues are to name but a few. Making the decision to attend counselling is a positive step towards achieving emotional well-being, however, I understand that like any first step into something new, it can also feel quite daunting. if you have any questions either about myself, the approach I use or counselling itself please don't hesitate to contact me and i will do my best to answer them for you.

I aim that all psychotherapy should have a positive outcome for my clients and helping them to identify where we should work. We are often active in sessions trying techniques and learning new skills to manage a life differently or developing a new way of looking at an issue. I encourage my clients to build a healthy and safe life style.

There are times in life when feelings such as anxiety and stress can become overwhelming. They can leave you feeling lost; not knowing where to turn for help and support. You can feel this way about yourself, yourself as a parent or for your child. As a Clinical Psychologist I can support you to better understand what is going on and why this is happening; to put these difficulties into a context beyond using labels such as anxiety and depression.

I have worked as a counsellor/psychotherapist since 2003. I work with short-term clients using CBT and solution focused models. The aim here is to help clients to learn strategies and solutions for coping with their difficulties. I also work with gestalt and the person centred models. These models are more relational working in the "here and now" of what is going on relationally between the client and myself. These models are more suited to longer term work to assist clients to find their way through the difficulties they are experiencing. I work with body, thoughts, feelings & emotions. I work with both individuals and couples.

Are you thinking: I could do with some help with my anger. For too long I have struggled to find joy in my day to day life. I wish I could stop feeling so anxious. I am struggling with grief? I feel like I do not like myself, I have questions about my identity. Why are my relationships a disaster?

I believe we are all susceptible, at some point in our lives, to feeling overwhelmed by what life can bring. Sometimes we encounter experiences that are hard for us to come to terms with leaving us in need of support, this may be in the form of a bereavement, a relationship breakdown, a job loss; any event that we struggle to comprehend and understand. Other times a series of events may have taken place that leave us feeling like we are walking under a big black cloud and fail to see a way forward. At times like this counselling can help.

Each of us encounters issues which affect our lives; bereavements, traumatic events, difficult relationships with partners, work colleagues or more senior members of your workforce etc. You may be experiencing a feeling of unease which you can't explain, have outbursts of anger or emotion about which you wish to gain an understanding and resolve. You may have feelings of low self worth and/or self esteem you wish to resolve or it may be you wish to just offload, to gain a greater understanding of yourself and greater self-awareness for your personal development. If so, you can speak to me in strict confidence and resolve the issue.

I see clients who come to me for help with anxiety, depression, stress, dissatisfaction, self-esteem issues, stuckness, relationship issues, race issues, drug and alcohol addiction, work problems, infertility and general emotional or psychological stresses. Sessions with me are weekly at a time convenient for you.
