I will work with you to help you understand yourself better and support your personal development.

Welcome. My name is Terina. Therapy is a bit like a walk through a forest that we agree to go on together. We don't yet know what the experience will be like, where it will take us or what might come up and we can't determine the outcome - it is new and unknown for both of us. The difference between us (therapist and client) is that I have walked similar paths before so I am able to recognise the challenge and your courage in taking the first step. The important thing is, we do this walk together. I can offer you my support, empathy and honesty and the space to explore anything that matters to you, without judgement.

Whilst many of us have supportive family and friends who can help with difficulties we face, at times, the closeness of these relationships can detract from our personal journey of growth and discovery. Whilst I appreciate that the thought of counselling may be a difficult step, we will walk the journey together. Offering a neutral perspective throughout sessions, we will explore any issues you wish to share. Providing a therapeutic relationship with honesty and empathy, we will look into any difficulty within a non-judgmental and confidential space at a pace which enables thorough reflection and scope for change.

Imagine waking up each morning with a sense of clarity, purpose and inner strength. RESET can take you there! Like most of us, you may face challenges and difficulties. At times you may feel anxious or depressed about work, relationships, stress, illnesses, etc. You want to escape the grip of frustration & shame, and stop the destructive cycle of self-loathing. There may be things about yourself, the past or the future, that confuse or concern you and affect your confidence and well-being. It impacts on your day-to day life (eating, drinking, gambling, overspending, outbursts, panic attacks, overwhelming feelings, etc.).

Sometimes we feel we are not happy in the life that we are living and coming to terms with it or making a change can feel like an insurmountable task. Or we endure a loss that leaves us feeling utterly devastated; the breakdown of a friendship, the demise of a marriage, the death of a significant person, a parental or sibling estrangement. You may not even know what is wrong but you have an innate sense that your anxiety and low mood need your attention. That the sadness and loneliness you are experiencing is overwhelming and you want to reach out to find some happiness. But we can lose our sense of perspective at such times.

Going to therapy can be hard; having to share inner conflicts and pain can feel exposing, yet liberating. It is through a trusting therapeutic relationship that an empowering environment forms, where these vulnerabilities can be shared safely. Embedded in Sikh Ethos, I value honesty, non-judgement and universal truth. “EK” in Gurmukhi means “One" ; integration of the Soul, Mind and Body means we’re able to reach a more fulfilled state and way of living. These three elements must communicate and flow for one to feel wholesome, connected, grounded and safe.

Hi, my name is Hope. I know, a pretty good name for a therapist! I am an Integrative Psychotherapist. My aim and approach in therapy is to help you find your own path to the life you wish to live. We are all uniquely different and have different reactions to life and life events. I can help you work through some things you might find difficult. For example: Anxiety; Depression; Trauma; Relationship Issues. In order to heal and progress, we must first understand our emotions, what they are and where they come from. From here can make decisions to do something different, to break the patterns that no longer serve us in our life.
