Depression Counselling for Solihull, without the journey
From the heart of Solihull, near the High Street, Brueton Park and the NEC nearby, out to its edges, from the town centre and Touchwood to Shirley, Olton and Knowle, online sessions make it possible to get the right support without rearranging your whole day around a single appointment.
Although my practice sits on the Sussex coast in Hove, distance is no obstacle. People in Solihull work with me online and receive exactly the same specialist, confidential support as anyone who walks through the door.
I also work online with people elsewhere in Midlands, including Birmingham, Coventry, Leicester.
If you would still prefer to meet in person and can travel to the Sussex coast, you are welcome to, but for most clients in Solihull online depression counselling is the natural and effective choice.
Life in Solihull
Why people in Solihull reach out
Solihull is a prosperous town on Birmingham's edge, close to the airport and the NEC, and its comfortable reputation can make struggle feel out of place. Demanding careers, long commutes and the pressure to maintain a certain standard can quietly erode wellbeing behind well-kept front doors.
Commuter life has a particular cost: the early train, the late return, and a working day that quietly swallows the daylight hours. An online session you can take from home, with no journey at either end, removes the very obstacle that stops many people starting.

Why online works in Solihull
Why people in Solihull choose online counselling
Around shift rotas
Airport-hours and unsociable rotas rarely fit a daytime clinic. Online sessions work around whatever your week looks like.
Easier to keep to
A weekly session you can take from home is far simpler to protect than one that needs travel. That consistency is exactly where lasting change comes from.
The same confidentiality
Sessions run on a secure, encrypted video link, and everything is held to the same strict BACP confidentiality as work done in person.
The comfort of your own space
Many people find it easier to open up from their own sofa than in an unfamiliar room. From Solihull, that comfort is part of the work, not a compromise.
How online sessions work
However we meet, the approach stays consistent. Rather than analysing every thought endlessly, we focus on what is actually impacting your daily life right now. Our sessions are structured but flexible, using straightforward exercises to help you regain direction and rebuild emotional resilience.
All it takes at your end is a private spot where you can talk freely, a device with a camera, and a steady signal. We begin with a free fifteen-minute call, then I send a link you join at our agreed time each week.

Start the conversationFinding support in Solihull
My online counselling sits alongside the help available locally, and it can be worth knowing what else is there. In Solihull, you can refer yourself directly to Coventry, Warwickshire and Solihull Talking Therapies for free NHS talking therapy, with no GP referral needed. You can also find your nearest service through the NHS Talking Therapies finder.
Private sessions with me usually mean you can start sooner, stay with the same counsellor throughout, and work at greater depth and pace; the two can run side by side, and I'm glad to work alongside any NHS or GP support you already have.
If you need urgent help now
This practice is not a crisis service. If you or someone else is in immediate danger, call 999.
For urgent mental health support, call NHS 111 and choose the mental health option. The Samaritans are free, day or night, on 116 123, or text SHOUT to 85258.
Solihull questions

Can I have online depression counselling if I live in Solihull?
Absolutely. Solihull is well within reach, because we meet by secure video rather than in person. You'll get exactly the same specialist support as someone sitting in my Hove room.
What do I need to start online sessions in Solihull?
Very little: a private space where you won't be interrupted, a laptop, tablet or phone, and a reasonable internet connection. After a free fifteen-minute call, I send a secure link you click at our agreed time.
Is online depression counselling as effective as meeting in person?
For most people, yes. Online therapy can be just as effective as meeting face to face, and many find it easier to open up from home. Everything is held with the same strict confidentiality as in-person work.
