Counselling in London

Are you struggling to communicate with your partner? Feel like your partner doesn't understand you? Do you wish you could turn the clock back to happier times in your relationship? Many couples face difficulties in their relationship at some time or other, and this can often be a stressful experience, leaving one or both partners feeling hurt, lonely or rejected. Relationship counselling can help you re-connect with each other, reduce conflict in the relationship, and regain the closeness and intimacy you once had.

Do you feel ripped apart and shaken to your core? You don't want to be a burden to friends and can't talk to family, it is all so overwhelming. The deepest pit of despair and hurt, mixed emotions, anguish, anger, confusion, barely coping with intense non-stop life changes. Loss of family, partner or treasured friends, sudden or chronic terminal illness, loss of the person you used to be, ageing, guilty lifestyle, fear of a new job and moving, or the prickling heartache from loss of your pet. You don’t even have the strength to take the next step, to pull yourself through while trying to reach your old self. You need a safe space.

I create a supportive, therapeutic environment that enables you to work effectively with various issues, from anxiety and depression to work burnout and eating disorders, relationship issues and neurodiversity. Your therapeutic journey starts with self-observation to learn precisely where you are.

Hello, I’m one of the most experienced counsellors in our area, having 25 years experience to date. Generally clients pay as they go. I also work privately through insurance company referrals such as PPP/Bupa/Aviva Etc. Professional, yet approachable and friendly practitioner. Proud to be known as challenging when circumstances require this! Many clients whom I have worked with said this was exactly what they needed from a counselling psychotherapist, especially if previous experience of practitioners whom have been overtly passive. Together we shall accessand implement YOUR inner wisdom! FTC also have many alternatives for you!

Even though you are looking for a psychotherapist or coach who specialises in working with neurodivergent people, your identity may not be the central reason for seeking a therapist. You can arrive presenting with anything that is part of human experience or life. Yet, the importance of choosing a neurodivergent psychotherapist is that there will be understanding of any sensory and processing differences. This means that wrong assumptions about how you ‘should be’ aren’t made, you won't be misread, and, consequently, the work will have meaning and usefulness for you. Adult individuals and couples are welcome.

Hello, I am Harris and I can help you to heal and flourish. I am an Edinburgh-based Psychologist, Psychotherapist and Philosophical Counsellor, working with individuals and couples both in person (in Edinburgh) or via Skype.I use a pluralistic psychotherapeutic approach, which means I combine tools and knowledge gained from across many different psychotherapies to develop a programme that is uniquely tailored to you and your specific needs.Through a collaborative, creative and integrative approach, I will work with you, drawing on my extensive knowledge of wide range of effective psychotherapies.

Dr Pak draws on a range of therapeutic models (e.g., Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Narrative Therapy and Psychodynamic Therapy), often including creativity as one of her core competencies.

I offer a safe and confidential space and a therapeutic relationship to explore what's pushing you down or holding you back, to help you move forward from difficult experiences, and to gain more freedom, ease, and creativity in your life. As a UKCP accredited integrative therapist with a background in psychology obtained in the US, I hold a balance between different theories and therapy approaches in line with your needs. Where appropriate, we can integrate EMDR to help you process trauma and stuck experiences, within a holding therapeutic relationship. I work with individuals and with LGBTQ couples both short-term and longer term.

Limited spaces available • I specialize in working with clients experiencing difficulties with self-esteem, assertiveness, childhood relational trauma, exploration of sexual orientation and gender, and ADHD. I work frequently with individuals who identify with the LGBTQ+, gifted, and neurodivergent communities. Using an integrative approach tailored to the needs of each individual, I strive to help my clients understand and find practical ways to cope with their challenges. I primarily draw upon person-centred, psychodynamic, and solution-focused approaches to therapy in my work.

As an integrative practitioner, I am engaging, insightful, curious, respectful, and able to design an individualised treatment that suits your needs. I practice CBT, EMDR, DBT, psychodynamic and integrative therapy. My 12-year clinical experience includes both the private mental health and the NHS, working both in individual and couples therapy.

Freedom is what you do with what's been done to you... (Jean-Paul Sartre) I believe therapy not only offers a space for processing confused, difficult or painful feelings but also aids self-discovery and development. I offer a safe space for my clients where they may explore things they have never talked about before. My priority is to provide a confidential, empathic and accepting atmosphere in which my client is free to question, reflect upon and express their true and unique self. I do this by developing a therapeutic connection with my client so that I accompany them on their journey side by side.

Often people avoid therapy because they feel like their problems aren’t that bad, but I believe that it is more about saying, "I want more for myself". Together, we can explore what that looks like for you.

Thank you for looking at my profile. I am experienced with 30 years experience as a Person Centred therapist. Person centred therapy is non judgemental. I offer a space where you can safely and confidentially explore anything that you want to talk about. No issue is too difficult or too small. It all matters. Together we can find ways for you to feel happier, resolve issues, and live a more satisfying life. I have a wide range of experience of all different issues and will meet you with total acceptance.

I specialise with the LGBT+ community, including their family and friends. I can offer a non-judgemental, gentle, accepting confidential space for you to share your issues and concerns, knowing you will not be rejected or discriminated against. I have lived experience of transgender identities, as my son is transgender. I have witnessed the high mental health conditions, suicidal ideation, including self-harm, and loss faced by LGBT+ individuals that I have counselled, along with the hurdles my son has encountered during his transition. I would like to walk with you along your pathway, and consider myself privileged to do so.
