Counselling in E18

Everybody struggles from time to time and sometimes it can get in the way of our lives. Have you noticed changes in your life? Are you worrying more than usual and finding it hard to relax? Maybe you are feeling sad, low in mood or get cross and irritable more quickly? Is it hard to put yourself first or just saying no? Do you feel less motivated or less enjoyment in life? Or have you noticed difficulties with sleeping? Perhaps you don’t feel the way you want. Or do you just feel ‘stuck’? These struggles could be getting in your way or affecting relationships with those closest to you. If so, these are things I can help you with.

I am a fully qualified Cognitive Behavioural Therapist with Rational Emotive Behavioural Therapy training. I have also trained in Compassion Focused Therapy and ACT. My extensive work using CBT has been with clients with major psychological problems and I have until recently been working at The Priory. I have worked in outpatient and inpatient settings and have worked with clients from varied cultures and backgrounds. As a therapist I have worked with clients struggling with anxiety disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), health anxiety, anger management, generalised anxiety, depression and bereavement and have supported

I believe that each client is unique. For this reason, I may employ different therapeutic approaches to suit your personal needs. My aim is to help you explore your feelings, thoughts and emotions and the effect they have on your behaviour and mood. The understanding that counselling brings will help you in times of trouble, distress or confusion. I offer therapy in a warm, safe environment where you will be listened to in a non-judgmental manner.

Are you feeling overwhelmed or unhappy? Does your life seem unmanageable? Has some event in your life affected the way you feel and function? Do you need someone to listen to you and help you figure out what to do next? Or, do you simply need to explore some ways to make your life more fulfilling? Taking a step towards positive change may be easier than you think.

I am a qualified Integrative psychotherapist and a registered member of the British Psychological Society (MBPSs) and British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP). I hold A BSc (Hons) degree in Psychology and an MSc degree in Therapeutic Counselling.

Whatever your reason is for seeking therapy, I am here to help. I am a Clinical Hypnotherapist, Psychotherapist, NLP Master Practitioner and Time Line Therapist. I have been a therapist for over 20 years and I assist my clients in overcoming a range of issues. I am open to self and third-party referrals. I am also a private mental healthcare provider-practitioner for BUPA, Aviva, Cigna, WPA - to mention a few. My main focus and therefore my specialism is in the treatment of Stress, Anxiety and Depression. I work both face-to-face and by telephone. I also run therapy groups focused on anxiety.

We all need help from time to time, and you shouldn't be embarrassed for asking for it. I am a down to earth and compassionate person, who understands what it is like to need a boost. In my years I have truly heard it all, and my biggest goal is to empower rather than judge my clients. One of my favourite quotes comes from Marisa Peer who explains that “to be happy you have to make peace with your past, love the present and feel so excited about the future”. No problem is too big to solve and I have witnessed counselling change the lives of so many people and I know I can help change yours too.

As a highly experienced, fully qualified Counsellor, I draw on a range of therapeutic approaches to offer you the empathy and understanding you need to achieve your goals and reach your full potential. I am able to work with a broad range of issues such as addiction, anxiety, bereavement, childhood issues/trauma, depression, divorce, loss, relationships, self-esteem and stress. However I specialise in women's mental health, particularly pre- and post-natal depression. I also offer clinical supervision for fully qualified and trainee counsellors.

Sometimes psychological difficulties are being experienced for a number of years, other times they are triggered by more recent events. Deciding to see a psychologist can feel daunting at the beginning but it probably means that you are at a stage where you are ready to attempt to make changes. You might feel anxious or even ashamed to discuss personal issues. You might feel scared that you will not be able to change anything or feel better. These are understandable fears and concerns. However, if you are willing to give it a go, therapy can be an empowering process where you gain new insights, & different ways of managing problems.

Hello my name is Naina, welcome to my profile. Making the decision to begin counselling can be a difficult and daunting one. Counselling can help us to reconnect to ourselves by exploring our narratives, gaining a deeper understanding of who we are, and to develop a better relationship with ourselves and others. I feel forming a therapeutic relationship with my clients is key for our work together. We can work together to empower you to find your own answers and find the happiness that you are searching for.

I am a qualified humanistic counsellor who has experience in working with a variety of clients. I am bilingual and I offer counselling in English and Greek. I use the Person-centred approach as well as other humanistic approaches such as Gestalt and Transactional analysis. I have experience of a wide range of areas, including mild to moderate depression, anxiety, bereavement, divorce, relationship issues, domestic abuse, self-esteem and work-related issues. Furthermore I have experience working with adults, elderly people and young adults. I work ethically and comply with the BACP ethical framework.

I specialise in helping people with low self-esteem and depression to start living a more joyful life. If you have been feeling low for a while, it can really impact on the way you experience life. It may manifest in anxiety or social isolation and you might be feeling like you are not good enough, perhaps you judge yourself harshly, or you might be a people pleaser. As your counsellor I will help you to make sense of your current circumstances and the emotional journey that led you to distress.

Death brings up complicated feelings as you move into a life without a loved one. Do you feel lonely in your grief, unable to share your true feelings as you worry that you won't be understood, or it has been a long time and you feel like you should be over it? Are you finding it hard to sleep and concentrate at work or on the family? Are you worrying about how your kids are coping? Do you feel that you don't have the time to work through your grief? Are you wondering if all your worries and concerns are normal? Would you like to feel happy and find joy in your life again?

Are you feeling overwhelmed by the demands that are being made on you- school, friendships, relationships, or family expectations? Have things changed? You're not sure why, but deep down you know they are not going to go back to the way they were. On top of that, you may feel that it's difficult to explain how you feel because you just don't know. Or perhaps nothing much may have changed in your life but you just feel out of sorts - for no real reason. ...Imagine what it would be like to know that you can get through something that's vulnerable and uncomfortable? That you have what it takes to survive the cringey awkward moments

‘We all need someone to talk to some of the time’ and across the multi-dimensional layers of personality and global connectedness, to be human means we will be faced with situations and events during our lifetime that we believe a hundred percent, we will have little or no chance of sorting out or finding solutions to. The truism is there are always solutions, some more easily achievable and likeable, others less so. Nonetheless these too are solutions and place ALL at the doorway of all possibility. The wisdom then is to stand in the doorway to commence the healing transformations of finding answers and pathways towards resolution.

I offer a safe, non-judgemental space for clients to explore their issues within and I am a passionate believer in the benefits of counselling and talking therapy - stepping into your world and truly understanding you. I have been Practising as a therapeutic counsellor for 8 years, working with a diverse range of clients; I have a wealth of life experience. I have a particular interest in working with and treating: depression, anxiety, negative thinking, anger, addictions and self-harming - having worked with many clients dealing with these issues.

Sometimes you may feel like you have lost your voice and who you are; you may feel deeply affected by life events such as a separation , a traumatic event, the loss of someone close to you or the loss of something important to you. You wish to find freedom from those feelings and get yourself unstuck but you find that dealing with those emotions and day to day life is too difficult, maybe because events in your past that you do not want to impact your future, are affecting your present. It could just be that life is happening around you but you find yourself lost in the routine and want to find your dreams again…

My focus in therapy is on a person's life and relationships, past and present. I regard symptoms or behaviour patterns as expressions of distress connected to life circumstances. My style is fairly active, but I'm careful to listen and check what I have heard. I pay attention to a person's narrative, including successes as well as difficulties. I am happy to share knowledge that might help my client or point to resources. Most of my work is relatively short term (12 sessions or less). Typically I start off with a questionnaire which includes client ideas about the goals of our work together.
