ADHD Counselling in Whetstone, London

To introduce myself – I’m a counsellor specialising in working with ADHD clients and couples, and the challenges which come with navigating diagnosis whether that be the emotional impact, the difficulty in reframing your past, present and future, and the difficult and often drawn-out experience of waiting for assessment, assessment itself, diagnosis, treatment, and medication. I am diagnosed combined-type ADHD and found it enormously beneficial to my work.

I offer therapy to those who may be experiencing emotional difficulties and who need some time and space to work through these challenges in order to find a way forward. I work with parents, families, adolescents, children and young adults. My experience includes most recently working at Barnet CAMHS, together with adult NHS settings, schools and organisations. My work is informed through the use of CBT, psychodynamic and person-centred therapy. Working collaboratively, I offer a warm, empathic approach in order to develop goals and strategies that may be most beneficial and effective to suit your needs.

I have a long career working with those struggling to make sense of their difficulties. The decision to start therapy can be challenging, I therefore provide a space where your experiences can be explored in a compassionate, confidential and collaborative way. At a time when it seems hard to make sense of things in your life that are causing you distress this can be difficult and life can feel unfulfilling.

Whatever you may be struggling with, my aim is to help you understand and overcome your struggles, while supporting you in finding your way to a happier and more enriching life. In my practice I work with clients on a wide range of issues such as depression, anxiety, low-mood, relationship challenges and family difficulties, low self-esteem, loss, trauma and others. I am a firm believer that counselling is a collaborative process we embark upon together and I offer a genuine commitment to it. I deeply value the relationship I develop with my clients and I believe it to be a key part of the success of the therapeutic process.

Sometimes we lose our way a little in life. Perhaps there are aspects in your life that are causing you anxiety, distress, or preventing you from moving forward? In a world full of uncertainty we can often feel overwhelmed, fearful and unsure where to move next. Redundancy, illness, relationship issues, depression and anxiety can often leave us feeling unsafe and lost, and sometimes we just need a helping hand in working through these emotions and patterns in order to start to make sense of the world and ourselves again.

If you are feeling anxious or depressed or generally feeling stuck in your life or struggling with unhelpful thoughts and feelings I can teach you impactful strategies that will result in a more rational and balanced way of thinking which you can apply to many issues. This will achieve long lasting change and teach you how to be your own therapist.

Perhaps you're feeling trapped or blocked by the past, confused knowing there must be more to life but feeling stuck in survival. Maybe you feel in the depths of despair with feelings of stress, depression and anxiety or recently grieving from a bereavement, a loss of some kind or simply can’t make sense of a general flatness and loss of meaning. You know changes need to be made and seeking a safe supportive space to work through your process to find greater balance and meaning to life, allowing you to really live your life fully.

I am a counselling psychologist working with children, young people and families. I can support you with a range of challenges including trauma, anxiety, low mood, low self-esteem and relational difficulties. I have worked in this field for over 15 years, in CAMHS, schools and charities.

Hi, I’m Jyoti, a warm, caring and highly skilled Clinical Psychologist with over 20 years experience. I have specialised in working with children, young people, parents and families in the NHS and charity sector across community, outpatient and inpatient settings. I am passionate about helping individuals manage their wellbeing. My aim is to empower you to build on your strengths and skills and to thrive and strive for the best in each other achieving your potential as individuals and as a family unit. I am experienced in working with difficulties such as low mood, anxiety, low self esteem, trauma, eating and sleep problems.

I work with young people and adults who are experiencing high levels of stress and anxiety; sometimes feeling overwhelmed, low in mood or lacking in confidence. You may have had upsetting experiences that you are trying to process, or finding it difficult to get on with people close to you? Some of my clients are feeling overwhelmed at work, and looking for support. When we meet, I will listen carefully to try to understand why you may be struggling and what changes you would like to make. After the assessment we will make a clear plan of what you would like to achieve and what a successful outcome from therapy looks like.

During your therapy sessions, we will work collaboratively to identify your goals and develop a plan tailored to your specific needs. I use a range of therapeutic techniques and approaches, depending on my client's presenting issues and preferences. Within my Person-Centred practice, I offer a combination of different modalities including psychodynamic therapy and mindfulness-based therapy. We will work through what has brought you to therapy and any goals, changes or meaning you are wanting. Together we shall walk on your therapeutic journey.

I am an integrative Clinical practitioner.Sometimes it's hard to reach out when you need help. Its takes a brave to come forward. I offer my clients a space to express and explore the issues. The importance of a therapeutic relationship is to build an alliance and a connection to work together. They will develop trust and security as we make sense of your current challenges and difficulties. Over 20 years studying psychology and counselling worked as a human trafficking officer, Domestic Violence officer, Youth worker, family officer many more.

I see individual and couple clients with a wide range of issues. They include problems within relationships, parenting issues, bereavement, stress at work, low self-confidence and more. Often a client might feel a loss of hope and meaning in their life; they might have problems regulating their moods or coming to terms with aspects of themselves and decisions they have made. By coming into therapy, they seek to build a trusting relationship in which they open up, explore, let go of difficult emotions and complex thinking and beliefs.

As an Integrative therapist, I employ the Psychodynamic and Humanistic modalities to create a dynamic approach that delves into both your past and present experiences. This integration of therapeutic models serves as a powerful catalyst for your personal growth, enabling a profound exploration of your sense of self. Emphasizing a non-judgmental space, I provide you the freedom to authentically unravel your true self, unencumbered by masks, expectations, or defenses. Listening without judgment is paramount in this therapeutic journey, fostering an environment where you can voice your truth. In the words of Rumi, "The cure for pain i
