Reality Therapy / Choice Theory Therapists in Huddersfield, England

My name is Shareen Birges & I am a social worker who specialises in online counselling. I have been practicing for over 15 years & as a result, have a broad range of experience. I have worked with adolescents & their families, adults & couples. I specialise in the care of people with cancer and chronic illness, mental health, dual diagnosis/comorbidity, trauma background (including sexual abuse/assault & childhood abuse and trauma) & people with offending behaviour & people living with BPD. Due to my extensive experience working with adolescents and young people, I have developed an ability to work closely with families & other professionals, whilst keeping the boundary of privacy & confidentiality. I believe I am approachable & create a good balance between challenging clients & allowing their therapy to flow at a pace that feel comfortable to them.

I am an optimistic and accepting therapist, enthusiastic about working with clients in collaborative ways, seeking to uncover and understand, and finding new ways of changing your life and living with fulfilling and rewarding relationships, families and friends. Over the years I have come to appreciate the therapeutic relationship as deeply healing, a safe space for clients to reflect and explore.

Huddersfield is a West Yorkshire town with a significant post-industrial heritage in textile manufacturing and a diverse population that includes one of the largest Pakistani-origin communities in England, and its mental health landscape reflects both the economic challenges of a post-industrial northern town and the culturally specific mental health needs of a large and established South Asian community. The University of Huddersfield brings a substantial student population and contributes trained therapists through its psychology and counselling programmes, and a private therapy sector operates alongside NHS provision through South West Yorkshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust. Common therapy concerns include anxiety, depression, economic stress, and the complex dynamics of identity, intergenerational difference, and community belonging that arise in a town where cultural traditions and modern urban life are in ongoing negotiation. Telehealth has expanded options for residents who prefer practitioners outside their immediate community.
