Counselling in EN5

We come to therapy for all sorts of different reasons. Perhaps the most important thing to say is that there is no single, “right” reason. You might come to therapy because things have happened to you, such as a death, a divorce or a loss of something else, like a job. Or perhaps you have specific symptoms or feelings of depression, anxiety, stress, anger, low self-esteem or a lack of confidence. Or you may be experiencing issues in relationships, with people or with other things, e.g. food. Or it may be the case that you can’t pinpoint what’s wrong, things just don’t feel right and life simply isn’t going the way you expected.

Hello, I am a Senior Clinical Psychologist with over 13 years of experience specialising in working with adults, children, young people and their families. I help people to make sense of any challenges they are facing and support people experiencing a wide range of difficulties including anxiety, low mood, worries and fears, difficulties with behaviour and relationships, coping with life events and sleep problems. I offer an integrative approach informed by evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), Narrative therapy, the Solihull Approach and Systemic approaches.

Hi, I’m Jyoti, a warm, caring and highly skilled Clinical Psychologist with over 20 years experience. I have specialised in working with children, young people, parents and families in the NHS and charity sector across community, outpatient and inpatient settings. I am passionate about helping individuals manage their wellbeing. My aim is to empower you to build on your strengths and skills and to thrive and strive for the best in each other achieving your potential as individuals and as a family unit. I am experienced in working with difficulties such as low mood, anxiety, low self esteem, trauma, eating and sleep problems.

I am an integrative Psychotherapist and can help you with your difficulties and needs to live to your full potential. At some point we all find life difficult to navigate. We may be feeling sad, anxious, anguished, stuck, angry or in despair, and this is where therapy can help us.

My name is Nick Wolfe and I am a professional accredited Counsellor. My practice covers many talking therapies including the relatively new Single Session Therapy (SST) . So what ever problems you may be facing in life, use this time of year to start making changes. A new year – a new way of living. I have also covered a weekly clinic for the NHS, specifically with the Camden & Islington NHS Trust.

Emma is a psychotherapist, counsellor, life coach, supervisor and trainer. Because of coronavirus I am changing how I work. I am seeing clients online rather than face to face. Obviously this is a hugely anxious time and people need emotional support more than ever. I am offering 50 minute sessions online as well as half hour sessions which will be lower cost because of the shorter duration. This is a difficult time and it’s important that we contain our anxiety so we can be loving neighbours, parents, partners and colleagues. Sessions will be aimed at resourcing you and finding ways to be more peaceful.

Welcome. I am currently offering therapy face-to-face and via phone or video link to young people 11+. individuals and couples. Supervision for individuals and groups available on request. Discounts available for students. I offer a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space where I work with individuals to achieve lasting personal change. I use a targeted approach to set appropriate goals for your therapy, and importantly this helps to signal when the therapy is over. This saves you time and money, as well as helping you feel better faster.

I am a CBT Psychotherapist with over 20 years experience working with adults, children/adolescents in England and abroad. Using solution- focused strategies from CBT and ACT (acceptance and commitment therapy and mindfulness), I have successfully treated many clients with various forms of anxiety, OCD, depression and life crises. I offer both short and longer term therapy in a safe, non-judgemental and supportive space. The areas I specialise in are: anxieties - GAD, phobias, panic disorder, social anxiety, test anxiety, health anxiety, OCD, trichotillomania, self-esteem, life changes, and depression.

I love working with children and adolescents and I have a particular interest in working with parents facing the challenges of parenting their unique children.

Psychotherapy will help you to make sense of emotional difficulties and relieve unaddressed and ongoing struggle. The process encourages you to reflect more deeply and can ultimately change unhelpful perspectives about yourself. It allows you to see what choices you have, including what needs to be accepted and what can be changed. Increased reflectivity leads to a stronger sense of self, deeper inner confidence and improved relationships. I work with clients who have experienced childhood trauma, adult trauma, relationship, sexuality and gender issues, abuse, addiction, anxiety, depression, bereavement, stress, and low self-esteem.

Hello there, I’m Amanda. How would you like your life to be different? Are you feeling low or anxious? Is something stopping you from having the life you dream of? Whatever your difficulty - however simple or complex - CBT is a powerful tool to make proactive, long-lasting changes in your life. I can help you to gain skills and techniques that you can use for the rest of your life. Ultimately, you will become your own CBT therapist!

Clients are looking to unpick areas of their lives that have proved too difficult for them to tackle alone. It may be more tangible life events: a bereavement, the end of a relationship, job loss etc. or that the client has found themselves 'stuck' in a place they feel unable to work through with any clarity of thought.

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.

I am an integrative therapist and use a person-centred core model as an integral part of my practice. Person-centred therapy is a non-directive approach to talking therapy. I will act as a guide and support to minimise any negative feelings you might have. I work with young people at an agency during the day and study CBT therapy through the NHS, and I have worked with adults, too. As a counsellor, I welcome diversity into my practice and pride myself on creating an inclusive atmosphere for clients. I have worked with clients from BAME and LGBTQ+ communities, and I am understanding of the struggles that can be experienced.

You may have an idea of what you would like support with, but often it can be hard to define how you're feeling. An initial assessment allows us to unpack your difficulties & start to make sense of things. I have 19 years experience of helping people with OCD, phobias, social anxiety, generalised anxiety, worry, panic, emetophobia, health anxiety, depression, body dysmorphic disorder, habit disorders (e.g. skin picking & hair pulling), low self-esteem, perfectionism, stress & insomnia. It is common to experience more than one of these at the same time; I can support you to understand the relationship between them & where to start.

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.

Hi, I'm Tanya, I work with children aged 4 - 18 and their parents. I use arts and play as a vehicle for change. As a mother of 3, I understand first hand how challenging being a parent can be. I like to work with children and their families so their relationships can flourish. "We wouldn’t be where we are now if it wasn’t for you. You lit up my life and brought back my smile (Age 14)" "Thank you for all the support you have given us all. Thank you seems so insignificant compared to what you have done, but it is felt from the bottom of our hearts. — Parent".

Hi and welcome. I know how daunting it can be to start therapy but we can work together to explore your current difficulties, looking at them through a new lens so you have greater insight and perspective. By building a warm & trusting relationship with you I can enable you to feel heard and understood, make sense of your feelings or maybe understand why you are not feeling, gain greater insight into your inner emotional world, accept those parts of yourself you may not like, help you to manage difficult people and teach you how to turn off your inner 'critical voice' so you become more forgiving and kinder to yourself and others.
