Amadea's Story

Amadea Counselling & Psychotherapy was set up by Rachel in 2017, she wanted to help others work through their struggles and provide both long and short-term affordable counselling. We saw the lack of long-term counselling at an affordable price and wanted to provide this for those who need it. At the end of 2023, Amadea turned into a Community Interest Company (CIC) to try and enable funding for those who are unable to pay for full-price counselling. 

Now an award-winning company

We are very proud to announce that Amadea Counselling has won many awards over the years for our services.

The Importance of Mental Health

20160616_154418_edited_edited.jpg

The term "Mental health" holds huge stigma in our country, so we often ignore it. However, emotional health is as important as our physical health. Emotional and physical health are extremely closely connected - if you are unwell physically it will affect you emotionally; if you are unwell emotionally it will present you with physical health issues, shaking as an example.

Sometimes we are desperate to ‘bloom’ and lead a fulfilling life however, issues from our past almost feel like they are strangling us, preventing us from doing what we would like to do. If this sounds familiar, come for some sessions where we can examine your concerns and questions; search for a way in which you can move forward without being dragged down by the events of yesterday.​​​

It may be that you are depressed; bereaved; are experiencing difficulties at work; suffering from anxiety based issues or you may simply have an important decision to make etc. Attending counselling doesn’t mean that you are a “nut case” nor that you are “mental,” merely that there is something going on, for which you would benefit from some time and space in which to process what is happening.

Reviews 

"When I first came to you I was struggling with depression, postnatal depression and anxiety. I had found the transition to motherhood immensely difficult and had lost my identity, confidence and knew that I needed to seek help for myself in order to properly care for myself and family. I was also still trying to deal with past family traumas from my own upbringing and was eager to address these issues one by one and rebuild my self worth. 

​You made me feel at ease from the moment I entered your therapy room and I found myself able to be completely open with you (and me). You helped me work through everything with patience and compassion, and helped me see different perspectives and identify strengths where I saw only weaknesses. Where I was my harshest critic I am now my own advocate and friend. The difference that your counselling has made is enormous - thank you so much for all you have done for me and for all you do for others."
