About me and my therapy practice
Hello, my name is Joseph. I am a trained, BACP registered, therapist who provides person-centred counselling in the Birmingham and Solihull area. I completed my undergraduate counselling degree at the University of Warwick.
I am qualified to work with clients who have any ongoing emotional or mental health difficulties that they feel would be helped by engaging in therapeutic work. I create a therapeutic environment which treats you with empathy and which accepts and values you as an individual.
Person-Centred counselling is a non-directive therapeutic approach which centres your thoughts, experiences, and feelings. I will help you to explore your own behaviours, worldview and feelings in a non-judgemental environment so that you are able to achieve positive outcomes such as increased self-awareness, confidence and independence.
I will provide you with a non-judgemental space where you are able to explore your thoughts and feelings with support.
I offer long and short-term therapy which are provided remotely, over video conferencing and the telephone. I am looking to incorporate in-person sessions soon, but have no facility as of now.
My first session
I offer a short 10 minute introductory session. This is not a counselling session but rather an opportunity to ask questions, and for you to check that I am the right counsellor for you. It is an opportunity for you to check that the counselling I offer is what you are looking for. This first 10 minute meeting is free of charge and will be held over video conferencing or telephone.
While this shortened session is on offer it is not a requirement, and if you'd rather, we can book our first appointment as a full 50 minute session and go from there.
