You may have found yourself searching for a therapist because you feel stuck due to a particular life event, or perhaps you have been struggling with longer term difficulties such as depression or anxiety. Alternatively, it may be that relationships have become challenging and you would like help to navigate through the emotional pain that you are feeling. I practice counselling and psychotherapy in discreet and comfortable consulting rooms in Enfield, and also online. Whatever your struggle is, I can help to unravel difficult thoughts and feelings with the aim of promoting change.

With life comes challenges, which we may find difficult and overwhelming at times. I provide a space where you can explore, express and tell your story in a safe way. Therapy can be difficult but very rewarding. I believe the therapeutic relationship is an important aspect in the work. I work holistically and offer both long- and short-term therapy. I work with young people and adults, I have an open, honest, compassionate and non-judgmental attitude.

Life can be tough and overwhelming and we can get exhausted by it all. Since the pandemic there are so many more pressures and stresses, whether they be emotional, practical or financial. You may be spending more time with family which causes friction or struggling spending so much time on your own. Everyone needs help now and then and it can feel scary to ask for it, but the alternative is to remain isolated and alone. Speaking to a therapist can be an opportunity to clear your mind, alleviate your anxiety and find a better way forward. It's not about opening old wounds, it's about healing them.

You may be considering therapy as a result of a very specific difficulty such a relationship issues, a bereavement or low self esteem, or you may be struggling to deal with the day to day difficulties that life brings. You may wish to work with a therapist for a short period of time or you might want to build a longer therapeutic relationship. This may be your first experience of therapy or you might be returning to therapy following previous experiences. Any of these scenarios are welcome.

Perhaps you feel stuck in life, anxious or depressed. Maybe your past, currant circumstances and struggles, traumatic events and worries about the future holding you back from fulfilling your potential. You might feel lonely and isolated. Therapy offers safe, non-judgmental and unique space where you can explore all the factors which might cause you distress and help you find coping strategies and ways how to overcome your difficulties. I am a Polish speaker so we can have therapy in Polish if you find easier to express yourself in this language.

My aim in working with people is to promote well-being and achieve a good quality of life. Our first step is to think about your values and personal goals and what changes in your life you would like to see. We can then think about how to tackle any problems or difficulties in order to address these directly or think about strategies for minimising the disruption they cause. I help people struggling with anxiety, low mood, excessive self-criticism, trauma symptoms, panic, obsessive compulsive disorder and paranoia.

You may be seeking psychotherapy for a number of reasons: for help with everyday relationships, struggles in everyday life or without a specific problem you can identify but want to increase your self-awareness to live Life more fully. I believe the challenges and stresses of life be they physical, emotional or mental can often provide an opportunity to really look at your life, explore what you want to be different as well as a chance to deepen your relationship to yourself and to others. Listening to your life story and creating a strong therapeutic alliance are important to me in the process of healing and gaining insight.

Starting therapy can feel unnerving, often it takes time and courage for one to take the first step. Often this initial anxiety about starting therapy can be down to, in part, not knowing what to expect. An initial session, often referred to as an assessment, can be a way of knowing whether or not you and I would like to start working together. Perhaps there are specific things in your life that are bothering you, or maybe you are not sure about why you are feeling the way that you are. Therapy is a place where we can think together in a confidential space.

As a counsellor, I primarily focus on the relationship between myself and you the client. I view each client as a unique individual and throughout our sessions I hope to create a strong enough connection between us in a safe and supportive environment that you, as the client are able to open up and make the best use of the sessions. Relating is the core of what we do as counsellors and building and sustaining those relationships in the therapy room is where everything hinges.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
Counsellors and Psychotherapists listed in the directory are members of the main professional associations, mainly the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and the UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP). Most Psychologists in the directory are accredited members of the British Psychological Society (BPS) and/or are registered in the Health and Care Professions Council (HPCP).
Providers whose professional membership or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Given that professional memberships are not a statutory requirement for psychotherapists and counsellors in the UK, certain qualified professionals or organisations may choose not to maintain such memberships despite possessing the necessary qualifications. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counsellor?
Counsellors, psychotherapists and psychologists can all provide counselling or talking therapy and have credentials and experience that enable them to do so in the UK. Psychologists have earned a degree in psychology and many are members of the British Psychological Society (BPS) and have completed a postgraduate qualification in a specialism. Counsellors and Psychotherapists are not required to have a psychology degree, but to belong to a professional organisation such as the BACP or UKCP, they are required to have completed a training course as well as clinical and supervision hours.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
How much does therapy cost?
The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, a therapy session in the UK could be between £30 - £60 when seeing a counsellor and £60 - £150 and up when seeing a clinical psychologist. If you have private insurance, your plan may cover some if not all of your sessions. You should contact your insurance provider to determine if they provide coverage for therapy sessions and to determine what, if any, requirements they might have in order for your sessions to be covered, such as a referral from your GP or medical specialist.
What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?
Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.
If you are struggling to access therapy due to budget constraints, you could also consider public funded mental health services. The NHS Talking therapies programme offers free of charge counselling for common mental health problems like anxiety and depression. The service is available to anyone registered with a GP, though you do not necessarily need to be referred by your GP and can refer yourself directly to a Talking therapies service. The service will provide different solutions, including group and individual therapy, for a limited number of sessions which are generally up to six.

Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your postcode.
Are therapy sessions confidential?
Therapists who are part of a professional organisation such as the BACP, the UKCP, or BPS are bound by an ethical framework that requires them to uphold a confidentiality agreement. Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship and only under specific circumstances, such as when there has been participation in a criminal act or act of terror, or if there is potential or known harm to the client or others, will a therapist be obligated to break the agreement. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed during the initial consultation.
