Christopher Martin

I work as a counsellor with people who are finding things difficult, as we all do at times in our life– people who are anxious, worried, stressed or overwhelmed because of everyday life – relationships with partners, family, and children, money, work, health. People who are in pain because they feel sadness, grief, guilt or shame, worthlessness, uncertainty, frustration and anger.

I work with people who have come to counselling because they have no energy or interest in life, are having trouble sleeping, are getting pain or discomfort in their body that they can’t explain, are feeling tired or lethargic or are troubled by intrusive and unwanted thoughts.

I work with people who struggle to find joy or happiness, who are unsure of themselves or their direction in life, are going through changes to their life or who feel lost, isolated or alone.

Whatever the reason that you have decided to seek counselling, it takes courage to take a step into the unknown when life is already full of challenges.

I offer you a warm and safe space where you can think and talk through what is in your heart and on your mind and the issues or problems that you are dealing with. We can think and talk together about what that means for you and your life, what changes you would like to make how you can do that.

My approach is to work in the relationship that we build between us so that together, we can better understand what is going on for you, help you to better understand who you are and support you to make the changes that you feel will help you to become who you want to be. I will walk with you, support you and witness you on that journey.

I hold a Post Graduate Diploma in Psychosynthesis Counselling through the Institute of Psychosynthesis, validated by Middlesex University.

My practice is based in Olton, Solihull from where I work with clients on a short- or long-term basis. 

I offer a free 30 min telephone consultation to give us the opportunity to talk about your reasons for coming to counselling and how we can work together.
