Counselling in EN4

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.

I can help you to understand what is making you anxious, depressed, angry and sad. I can also help if you are having relationship problems, suffering from stress, low self-confidence, grief, trauma and phobias. My approach is really down-to-earth. It draws on the latest psychotherapeutic research and techniques to help people make significant and long-lasting changes to their lives. My aim is to help you feel better from the very first session.

I am a passionate and relatable therapist who can provide help and support with various issues. I offer therapy to individuals, couples and families for relationship challenges and parenting struggles. I can help with issues and distress you encounter including but not limited to anxiety, depression, self-harm, grief, identity and immigration, anger management and life cycle transitions (pre-marriage and marriage counselling, parenting, menopause, and retirement).

I am a Chartered Counselling Psychologist registered with British Psychological Society(BPS). I am also an associate fellow of the British Psychological Society (AFBPsS) I offer therapy to individuals and couples in Central and west london. Being a counselling psychologist means that I have worked with people experiencing a broad variety of difficulties and dissatisfactions in their daily lives to enhance their emotional well-being. I am professionally trained in providing short term counselling, including CBT, and long term psychotherapy. My practice is based in SW11 near chelsea, pimlico, victoria, vauxhall.

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.

I am an experienced chartered Psychologist and a BABCP provisional accredited Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist (CBT). I also have a master practitioner diploma in eating disorders which includes nutritional interventions. I specialise in eating disorders, disordered eating, body dysmorphia, anxiety and obsessive compulsive disorder. I believe in establishing a rapport with clients and working collaboratively towards a shared understanding of exploring your difficulties to find the best way forward for you. I work with a range of therapeutic approaches including Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing.

I am here to help you explore your distressing feelings and create positive change in your life. I provide a safe, confidential, non judgmental environment to work through any difficulties you may be experiencing that aims to help you feel heard, acknowledged and understood. Guiding you with empathy and compassion to provide you with the insights you need to help explore your emotions. Counselling can be an extremely powerful tool to help us become more aware of who we are and gain a better understanding about our relationships with others and the situations we find ourselves in.

Are you looking for support around anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship problems, repetitive patterns or other challenging feelings, experiences and thoughts? Or perhaps more general feelings where it is difficult to precisely describe or understand what the problem may be. Maybe you have a sense of something not being quite right but find it difficult to know where this has come from? Counselling can help develop awareness, leading to new possibilities and the chance to lead a more productive and fulfilled way of life. Please feel free to make contact and see if you think counselling could help you.

When you accept yourself for who you are, you are able to greatly enhance your life. Let me support you through this process to be heard. I work with children, adolescents and adults with anxiety, relationship issues, depression, panic disorders, anger issues, bereavement and loss, and many other issues. Let's talk, I provide the space and safety for you to explore anything that might be challenging you. I am emphatic, insightful and non-judgemental. My aim is to build a therapeutic relationship with you to enable you to explore thoughts and emotions which can promote personal growth.

Mental health issues affect many of us at some point in our lives, being able to understand and work with this has always interested me. Having been a practitioner for many years, working with clients from childhood to adulthood, I can see the range of benefits to all ages. I am a Psychodynamic Counsellor and Child & Adolescent Integrative Psychotherapist working in Enfield and Golders Green, North London. Working either long term or solution-focused short term depending on what is suitable for you at the present time.

Sometimes coping with life can become problematic because situations may lead us along a difficult pathway. We may try to understand our own behaviours, thoughts and emotions and those of others, but coping may not be easy. I regard each person as an individual in their own right, so my practice aims to suit diverse clients' needs. I bring together a variety of techniques to support people with a range of issues.

Thank you for stopping by. Seeking help can be challenging; there is the worry if the therapist is the right person for you. If you are strong enough to take a look at what is troubling you, or what may come up as you start to think about things beyond the immediate problem. I offer a space where you can take time to unpack what you have held on to for a while. Or what you may have been surprised by recently. Perhaps your dealing with something that has simply left you feeling overwhelmed? In any case, it may come as no surprise to you, but as you read you have made a start; maybe we can see where this opportunity may lead.

I am a counsellor specialising in the treatment of ADHD, anxiety, depression, stress, issues with self-esteem or relationships, and repeating patterns of behaviour you’d like to change. I believe wholeheartedly that change and growth is possible in us all, and I work hard with my clients to help achieve that. Having been diagnosed with Combined-Type ADHD in 2021, I lead monthly support groups for the charity ADHD UK, and work with numerous ADHD clients and those across the neurodiversity spectrum.

I am a CBT therapist interested in helping you overcome past traumas so you can have happy and fulfilling relationships with yourself and others. Whether you describe yourself as a people-pleaser, perfectionist, worrier, anxious-preoccupied or dismissive-avoidant, I would love to work with you. I can help you explore the impact of early life events on your sense of self and teach you ways to have better relationships, whether that’s by learning to say no, stopping worrying, having healthier boundaries, being more confident, or finding meaning in life. In my work, I integrate other therapies such as schema, ACT, mindfulness and CFT.

People reach out to me when they're tired of not feeling good enough. You may not know why you feel like you do and that's okay. Comparing yourself to others may make you doubt yourself. You may struggle to say "no" and worry about what people think. You may feel anxious and/or stressed and find it difficult to switch off properly. Constantly overthinking situations can be exhausting. You may want to find better ways of coping and feel more in control of life. Being more aware of your feelings and needs can help with communication. Putting in boundaries for yourself can improve relationships with those around you.

Life events, family and work can all have an impact on our daily lives and leave us feeling confused, anxious and alone in the world. When you feel stuck or unable to move forward, counselling can provide the space and time needed to talk freely and share how you truly feel. At different stages in life many people suffer from low mood or depression and others can experience a lack of emotion or drive in their life and often feel unable to understand or explain why. Asking for help and finding the right person to talk to can be daunting and finding the words to explain how you feel can be difficult. 

I am an Integrative therapist registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I provide emotional support for Children, Young People and Parents. My approach with children is play based and creative therapy. My work with parents is taken from a relational approach helping parents to learn about their attachment styles building on their understanding of their child's development and improving relationships. My support helps children understand their feelings, improving confidence, self esteem, anxiety, behaviours, and emotional wellbeing.

Should I talk to someone about this? If you've found yourself on this page, it's likely that you've already considered this question. Together, we can explore challenging feelings with attention and care to offer insight and the possibility of change. This process will take the courage to self-reflect, but can also be highly rewarding and have a positive impact on your awareness of self, your relationships, and your overall life experience. I offer face-to-face sessions in my Enfield Town practice, which meets social distancing guidelines. I also offer online/telephone counselling on an ongoing basis.

I am a caring and empathic person and I'd like you to know that you matter to me and it is an honour to be part of your journey. As I begin to know you a little more each session I will create a safe environment for you to talk freely and hold space for you, as you explore your life story. I understand it is a big step to have the courage to reach out to a therapist and consider working with me so let me introduce myself. I am an open, honest and experienced Person centred therapist and use an integrative approach as one size does not fit all, I work with the material the client is bringing in the here and now.
