Alison Burgess Counselling

  "After just one session I feel I have hope for the first time in a long time"   

Taking the first step towards better mental health can feel daunting, but it is important to know that it's a real sign of strength. Whether you're experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, fear, or any of the wide range of emotions that come with being human, please know that hope is available, and things can improve.

As an experienced integrative counsellor based in Birmingham, I offer a compassionate and understanding space for you. Clients have described me as a wonderfully empathic and attentive listener. I am passionate about helping you connect with your authentic self, understand the challenges that have led you to this point. From there you will discover the unique strengths and skills you possess to navigate your future, your way.

• Counselling for Anxiety and Building Confidence
• Understanding and Living with Bereavement and Loss
