The Wellbeing Academy
The wellbeing Academy is a leading provider of Counselling and Psychotherapy for all ages.
Our Counsellors provide face-to-face or online therapy for adults experiencing personal, emotional and psychological issues. From general anxiety, depression, and bereavement to stress, trauma, relationship issues and family conflict, we can help.
Our Youth Counsellors work with teenagers experiencing complex emotions, relationship issues, sexuality issues, stress and anxiety. Young people can discuss distressing issues with a skilled and impartial practitioner to address problems at home, with friends, at school, or in college.
Our Children’s Counsellors help youngsters explore thoughts and feelings through art and creative activities, helping them make sense of what’s going on in their life and find ways to cope when things are difficult. We know that when children are struggling, it can be worrying as a parent, so we also offer parent/carer consultations.

Andys Man Club
In mid-2016, nine men met in a small room in the typical Yorkshire town of Halifax with a simple aim of talking through their issues and helping each other deal with their mental health. All in attendance were agreed there was a magic in that room that had to be shared. This was the start of a movement that has grown faster than anyone first involved could have ever imagined. Fast forward almost 6 years and ANDYSMANCLUB now has groups at over 126 locations across England, Scotland and Wales.
ANDYSMANCLUB takes its name from Andrew Roberts, a man who sadly took his own life aged 23 in early 2016. Andy’s family had no inkling that he was suffering or struggling to the extent that he would do this, and as a result looked deeper into male suicide and men’s mental health. They soon discovered that male suicide is the biggest killer of men under 54, with Male Mental Health surrounded by well-ingrained cultural stigma in the UK. Elaine Roberts and Luke Ambler are Andy’s Mum and Brother-in-Law, together they came up with the idea of ANDYSMANCLUB, a group where men aged 18 and above can speak openly about their mental health in a judgment-free, non-clinical environment. Groups now operate nationwide and are completely volunteer-led, with the vast majority of group facilitators having first interacted with ANDYSMANCLUB when they came through the door as a service user.
With their service used on a weekly basis by over 2800 men, and an army of over 1000 volunteers on board, the movement is continuing to grow on a week by week basis.
