Your space to make sense of things
A safe, confidential space for reflection and change
Counselling gives you regular time to talk with a trained practitioner about what is affecting you. You do not need a diagnosis, a referral, or a perfectly formed reason to begin. Sessions are 50 minutes and usually take place weekly, online or face-to-face in Birmingham
Is counselling right for me?
People seek counselling for many reasons. You might be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, low, anxious, or simply aware that something isn’t quite right. You don’t need to have clear answers, a specific problem, or a crisis to begin.
Counselling can be helpful at many points in life,
dealing with a particular difficulty
feeling low, anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck
noticing repeated patterns in relationships, work, or emotions
carrying something that feels hard to manage alone
wanting space to understand yourself better
If you’re unsure whether counselling is the right step, that’s completely normal. We’re happy to talk things through and help you decide whether our service feels like a good fit.
How and where sessions happen
Face to Face
Sessions take place in a private counselling room at our centre in Birmingham City Centre.
This can be helpful if you prefer face to face or to keep therapy separate from home or work.
Purpose-built rooms
Easier to switch off
Online
We offer online sessions via a secure video system. This can be more flexible if you have caring responsibilities, mobility issues, or live further away.
No travel time
From home or work
Confidentiality & safety
What you talk about in counselling is private. We take confidentiality very seriously and follow clear ethical and legal guidelines.
There are a few situations where we may need to share information – for example, if we believe you or someone else is at serious risk of harm, or if we are legally required to do so. Wherever possible, we will talk this through with you.
If you have any concerns or questions about confidentiality, you can discuss them with your counsellor at any time.
Two simple ways to start
You can ask us to match you with a suitable counsellor or choose a counsellor yourself.
Whichever route you choose, your counselling will operate within the same ethical, safeguarding and clinical governance framework.
Matched Counselling
£35 standard fee per session
£25 supported fee per session
We match you with an available counsellor based on your needs and availability.
Your first appointment is an opportunity to begin counselling and see whether the match feels right. Most clients continue with this counsellor. If a specialist need is identified, we can arrange a different match.
