I am an empathic and intuitive psychotherapeutic counsellor. When working with you, I consider the impact of your past as well as what is happening in your life now. I work at your pace drawing on our therapeutic relationship to help you deepen your understanding of other relationships. By paying attention to the mind, emotion and body connection, I help you uncover what may not yet be obvious. Connecting with these deeper aspects of self can help you experience life more fully, uncover hidden potential and understand what is blocking you. My training was in Integrative Transpersonal Counselling and I am a trained yoga teacher.

Life gets stressful at times and we strive to find a good work-life balance that makes us happy. Sometimes substance misuse becomes a way of coping with life stresses or with past traumatic experiences; at times it could be an indicator of low self-esteem and low self-worth, underlying mental health issues, depression and anxiety, or the result of life circumstances such as divorce, job-loss, bereavement, illness or a combinations of all of the above. Relationships might become impaired as consequence and trust can break down.

Counselling can offer a supportive space to help manage something challenging or help to see things differently. I offer you a safe and warm, confidential environment in which to explore, at your pace, whatever you may be facing at this time. I’m an integrative transpersonal counsellor & work relationally meaning that at the heart of the therapy is a respectful therapeutic relationship with my clients. Some of the issues I work with are: anxiety, panic attacks, addictions, loss & grief, depression, relationship issues, eating disorders, loneliness, self-harm or suicidal thoughts, existential crisis, victims of abuse

You might be seeking counselling because you are suffering from depression or anxiety, or you’re feeling stuck and frustrated. Or perhaps you have experienced a painful life event, such as the breakup of a relationship or loss of a job. It can be very confusing and frightening to go through these crises, making us aware of our vulnerabilities and often leaving us feeling lonely in our plight. These crucial periods are where change is inevitable; by considering counselling, you may start developing awareness and the process of healing, allowing yourself the possibility of something new to emerge.

I work as a psychodynamic counsellor and psychotherapist, based in East London. In response to the COVID-19 outbreak I am currently working online, either by video or telephone. I offer a therapeutic space in which we can work collaboratively to better understand what might be troubling you and start to find a way forward. There could be a particular issue you would like help with or an event in your life that you wish to think more about. Sometimes it is hard to understand why we feel as we do, we just know that something is not right. At these times it can seem challenging to know where to seek help.

If you are thinking of starting a therapy you may be willing to deal with painful issues that can manifest in various shapes and intensity and have an impact on the day-to-day life; such issues are personal and linked both to personality and life events. A disturb can express in different ways and symptoms, like panic attacks, Depression, psychosomatic symptoms, Anxiety etc. Other times there is rather a generic feeling of discomfort that needs to be defined and addressed.

I will listen and respond to you carefully, reliably, and without prejudice in order to help you make sense of your thoughts, feelings, and relationships.

I offer counselling to individuals who identify as transgender, non-binary, gender-queer, gender-questioning and gender-fluid. I work with anyone wanting to explore their identity, regardless of whether they are considering or undergoing transition. My practice also caters for partners, family members or anyone close to someone who is exploring their gender identity.

Are you experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, relationship issues, panic attacks, challenging life transitions, loss? Do you feel stuck? Do you have unresolved family issues? Talking to a counsellor/psychotherapist can help. I aim to provide an empathic, supportive space where clients can open up and feel seen and heard for who they truly are. While counselling helps clients to process difficult or painful thoughts and feelings, I believe that therapy can also focus on the potential of the clients.

I am a compassionate and intelligent mental health professional possessing a broad range of clinical experience with people with mental health conditions. I have gained this from over 10 years of working therapeutically. I am passionate about using evidence-based psychological techniques that are grounded in a tailored understanding of a person’s distress. I do this by constructing and continually refining a formulation to make sense of someone’s difficulties, drawing on both theoretical models and information that presents during therapy. I am proactive and enthusiastic about achieving successful therapy outcomes.

It can feel daunting to start addressing things that are painful and to open a space for parts of you that don’t often get expressed. Our sessions are led by you and supported by me, together we foster a deeper awareness and clarity in order to facilitate meaningful change. I believe in the therapeutic space as a secure testing-ground in which you can practice and experience the possibility of breaking-out of set patterns of behaviour and choose the energy you want to live with.

Our lives can sometimes feel overwhelming. Therapy is a time and a space to be heard, to build awareness, strength and spontaneity. The conversations between client and therapist are unique and precious. Beyond techniques, tools and training, research shows that a successful therapy tends to be based on a relationship, on trust, collaboration and true listening. As a psychotherapeutic counsellor, I am inviting you to explore your own story, in the presence of an attentive and reflective fellow traveller. I work both in English and in French, with clients from diverse countries, ethnicities and cultures.

I aim to provide a safe, confidential, reliable space for you to explore your concerns. Working collaboratively to understand the world from your point of view will enable us to think together about the things that are troubling you, to understand more about what is going on for you and to address changes you might want to make.

Maybe you are feeling overwhelmed, like you have reached the lowest point in your life, with pressure coming from all directions, finding it hard to get through the day. Maybe you have lost someone and are still struggling to come to terms with the loss. Or maybe you feel stuck in a relationship or job that doesn't make you happy anymore but you don't know how to find your way out. Perhaps you are feeling anxious, stressed as a result of a shocking event in your life. Or maybe you feel like you don't matter as much as others, like you don't fit in. Maybe you have tried everything to help yourself but nothing worked.

I am an experienced counsellor and psychotherapist. I work with adults and adolescents, across a wide range of issues. My approach focuses primarily on enabling you to understand what brought you where you are today, and where you want to be. With this understanding, we develop solutions for you to get there. Each client is unique, and I use a blend of approaches to meet your specific needs. I am an integrative counsellor, and have also trained in CBT techniques. I work with people dealing with anxiety and depression, facing challenges with their relationships, or looking to improve their ability to tackle personal challenges.

I am a BABCP accredited Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist and trauma specialist offering therapy to people from various backgrounds and ages going through often overwhelming anxiety and mood difficulties. I have solid experience in working with anxiety and life changing traumas throughout the life span resulting in Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). In therapy, I work from a collaborative and compassionate stance helping clients to explore and understand difficult emotional experiences. I offer a confidential and safe place to support clients finding a grip on their struggles and develop ways to confront them.

I tailor my approach to suit the needs of my clients thereby helping them resolve issues brought to the therapy space, using a range of techniques: Psychodynamic/ relational looks at root cause from childhood-(caregivers), exploration of conscious, unconscious thoughts, patterns in relationship rooted in the past but impacts the present. Person Centred : Client talk openly and freely, I listen to hear, understand, guide them into, discovering solutions to issues presented through client's innate potentials, enhancing changes. Utilise holistic- Looks at the whole being. Mindfulness: Focus on coping strategy to help anxious clients.

Therapy is a healing journey that leads to a deepening of our inner resources, something human and sustaining. A strengthening of a life-affirming resolve in us. There’s a readiness in turning towards therapy. A courage too, that we may discover in ourselves and draw upon in addressing emotional and psychological difficulties such as anxiety, trauma, depressive tendencies and so on.

I am a psychodynamic psychotherapist in private practice, and I welcome anyone who feels that psychotherapy may provide the opportunity to consider their life. It is a collaborative process between the person seeking help and myself. It affords the chance to discover in which direction you might want your life to go.

I'm a warm and down-to-earth Psychotherapist, working weekly with adults in Dalston E8 and Beckenham BR3, on a one-to-one basis. I work with anxiety, depression, low self-worth, relationship difficulties, loneliness & isolation, bereavement, conflicts, work-place difficulties, traumatic experiences & finding meaning, amongst other issues. You may have a more nebulous sense of dissatisfaction... people come to therapy for a huge variety of reasons and you don't need to be in crisis to find it useful; attending regularly can also be seen as an act of generous self-care, bringing a greater sense of insight, of perspective & of ease.
