About us: Be Brave.

Life isn't easy, sometimes even the strongest people amongst us need a little bit of help to work through some of life's more challenging problems.

 

Everyone has a battle to fight and hurdles to overcome at some point. Whether you struggle with anxiety, depression, substance abuse, or any other issue, you should know that there is hope for a better tomorrow.

You might be initially hesitant to seek help and support for personal matters, but when you do, you will feel confident that you are taking a courageous first step towards getting to a better place and being a better you.

 

Here at Be Brave Counselling, we realise that no two people are the same, and we tailor our therapy to meet your specific needs as an individual. We love helping people understand the things that are holding them back with an in-depth approach. After recognising underlying problems, clients can fully realise their strengths and adjust certain behaviours and thoughts to see things in a different and healthier way.

 

Our practice specialises in trauma, depression and anxiety. If you are feeling lost and struggling with these worries, we are confident that we have the experience to help you rediscover what brings happiness to your life. Through therapy, there is always a way to address the issues you face and learn coping strategies to help you both now, and in the future.

Through therapy, we can get you on track to leading a happier, more fulfilling life by equipping you with the tools you need to more efficiently and confidentially manage life’s challenges.

 

It's never too late to change and start living the life you have always wanted.

If you're interested in becoming a happier, more fulfilled you, we would love to work with you every step of the way.

Lyndon and Danielle met whilst on their counselling degree at Sunderland University. While sharing common interests and activities, it was their love and passion of helping people with their struggles, is how Be Brave was born.

 

Danielle has a background in education and Lyndon has a military background, which ultimately put him on the path to counselling. He personally knew two veterans who had sadly taken their own lives due to the struggles of civilian life and the failure to adapt from military life. He had a vision of helping veterans in any way he could, so he trained to be a counsellor and started by helping people in his local community. When he mentioned this to Danielle, she was on board.

 

Both Lyndon and Danielle have suffered bereavement and trauma in their lives, which stands them in good stead for helping others with similar difficulties.

Through Be Brave, they aim to offer a highly personalised approach, tailored to each of their clients’ individual needs to help them attain the personal growth they are striving to achieve.
