❤️ COUNSELLING AT THE THERAPY SUITE

💕 Couples Counselling

Relationships can become difficult for so many reasons….communication breakdown, arguments, loss of connection, trust issues, life changes, resentment or simply feeling like you’ve lost your way as a couple.

Couples counselling provides a safe, neutral space where you can both be heard and begin to understand the patterns you’re getting stuck in.

We can explore:
• Communication and conflict
• Relationship breakdown and disconnection
• Trust and rebuilding
• Emotional intimacy
• Life changes and challenges
• Repeating arguments and relationship patterns

The aim isn’t to decide who is right or wrong. It’s about understanding what is happening between you and whether you can find a healthier way forward together.

🤍 Individual Counselling

You don’t have to be in crisis to ask for support.

I work with adults experiencing a range of difficulties, including anxiety, low self-esteem, grief, trauma, relationships, addiction and recovery, emotional overwhelm and major life changes.

Counselling gives you somewhere to slow down, make sense of things and understand yourself without judgement.

I offer face-to-face and online counselling from The Therapy Suite.

People see counsellor and think that’s all you do.

It has grown into so much more than sitting in a counselling room each day.

I work with individuals, couples, people in addiction and recovery, rehabilitation services, community organisations and businesses. I deliver groups, workshops, recovery planning, psychoeducation and employee wellbeing support.

I build partnerships, develop projects, write programmes, create awareness campaigns, network with businesses and constantly look at new ways to reach people who might not otherwise ask for help.

There’s the clinical side, the training, supervision, safeguarding, assessments, notes and CPD.

And then there’s the business side….. marketing, networking, partnerships, pitching, funding, creating opportunities and putting yourself out there…

So yes, I’m a counsellor.

But I’m also a business owner, a practitioner, an educator, a collaborator, an advocate and someone who is constantly trying to create something bigger than a just the therapy room ❤️

Our clubs restart on week beginning 7th September for Autumn term and we have spaces available on most clubs at the moment.

We are a parent co-op who volunteer our time to put on affordable sessions for the local home ed community based at Bilton Hall Community Trust.

Alongside the timetabled clubs we also run social days and trips for families to get involved. We are a friendly and welcoming group and always looking for new families to join us.

We run a weekly Chatty Cafe on a Thursday 10.30 - 1pm where families can pop in for a free cuppa and chat to find more about home ed in the area - anyone can attend this and is a great source of info for those considering home education, looking for support or looking to find out more about whats going on the area.

We also have the fabulous Sunflower Community Kitchen on site with the most delicious cakes, home cooked meals and sweet treats.

For more information please message our page or contact Danielle Pollard Lisa Cheetham for more information and how you can try the clubs to see if they are for you :-)

Grief doesn’t always look like death.

Sometimes grief is watching your child grow up and realising they don’t need you in quite the same way anymore.

✨ It can be losing a job you loved or retiring.
✨ A relationship ending.
✨ Moving away from somewhere that felt like home.
✨ A friendship changing.
✨ Your health changing.
✨ The person you thought you’d become not being who you are anymore.

Sometimes we grieve the life we imagined.

And because there hasn’t been a funeral, we can feel like we’re not allowed to grieve.

But loss is loss.

So if you’re feeling sad, angry, lost or overwhelmed by a change in your life, it doesn’t mean you’re being dramatic.

At The Therapy Suite, I offer a range of support around addiction, recovery and relapse, from one-to-one counselling and psychoeducation to practical recovery planning and group workshops.

No judgement. Just a safe space to understand what’s going on, work through it and find a way forward.

You don’t have to wait until things get really bad to ask for support.

A little bit about me…👋🏼

I’m Kelly Allen, an Integrative Counsellor and founder of The Therapy Suite.

Alongside my private practice, I work with businesses and organisations supporting employee wellbeing and mental health, with a particular interest in the offshore, energy and high-pressure working environments.

I’ve completed my BOSIET and MIST training, giving me a better understanding of the offshore environment, the demands placed on workers and the importance of having appropriate mental health support available. I work with a number of oil and gas companies in Aberdeen supporting their workforce.

My work covers a wide range of areas including stress, anxiety, burnout, addiction, substance use, gambling, grief, trauma, relationships and recovery.

I also have a background working across prisons, addiction services, women’s recovery and domestic abuse, which has shaped the way I work today.

I’m passionate about bringing mental health and addiction conversations into the workplace without judgement or stigma, making support something people can access before they reach crisis point.
