Counselling in London

I am a Clinical Psychologist providing specialist psychological assessment and evidence-based treatment for a range of mental health, emotional and behavioural difficulties in children and young people. This includes supporting those who are experiencing low mood, anxiety and challenges in forming or maintaining relationships. ​I specialise in comprehensive neuropsychological assessments to understand a young person's learning strengths and areas of difficulty, and to identify general or specific learning difficulties, such as Dyslexia. I also provide assessment of neurodevelopmental difficulties, including Autism Spectrum Disorder.

I am a BACP registered counsellor and psychotherapist in private practice and see clients in Fulham as well as Kensington. Over the last seven years I have worked in a number of public as well as private institutional settings including the NHS, universities and employee assistance programmes. My way of working is integrative-relational. I combine and tailor a number of different theoretical approaches whilst treating the relationship between us as the most important facilitator of our work together.

Life today can be challenging where unexpected or slow burning issues can knock us off our centre of gravity. This makes life more difficult and pleasure, joy & contentment hard to come by. Psychotherapy provides a safe, confidential space to delve deeper into these issues which may originate from the present or distant past. My goal for our psychotherapeutic work together is to construct an approach that is unique to you as an individual and the issues you need support with.

Whatever challenges you may be facing – whether you are feeling anxious, depressed, stuck or overwhelmed – counselling can provide a confidential space for you to talk about what is distressing you. As a counsellor, I believe in providing my clients with a non-judgmental, warm and empathic environment where together we can explore the difficulties you may be facing. Counselling can be beneficial in developing personal insight; helping you make sense of your feelings and the core values and beliefs you hold. Together we can explore more effective ways of coping and what you want for yourself moving forward.

My initial interest in Existential therapy was informed by my personal and professional experiences. Throughout the years I have explored diverse ways of supporting my clients, looking to improve their emotional and spiritual balance. Existential therapy encapsulates all my core beliefs about the therapeutic process and the powerful therapeutic connection between psychology and philosophy. It is anchored in the lived experiences (not their theoretical representation) and their relational context. It relates to human existence and predicaments, our choices and responsibilities, meaning and purpose, freedom and limitations.

I work pluralistically from a contemporary biopsychosocial framework that incorporates all aspects of self and I believe that you have many of the answers you are seeking within yourself. My objective is to build a safe and holding space for a trusting relationship where you can explore and share your thoughts, feelings, behaviours, and problems/difficulties. Clients often seek therapy because of symptoms affecting their everyday life. However, they are often unaware of the root cause of their self-sabotaging behaviours, relationship issues, and emotional numbness. I also provide a more focused work as a single-session therapy (SST)

Coming to counselling can be a scary (and brave) step to take! It involves opening up to a complete stranger about things you may have kept inside for many years. The people I work with come with a variety of issues. Some may want to speak about a specific issue such as relationship or work difficulties but others come with a feeling that they have been a bit stuck for a while and are not sure why.

I am someone who cares about the well-being of others which led me to qualify as a BACP Accredited Person-Centred Counsellor. My counselling method is built on person-centred counselling plus adapting to the clients’ needs and creating a unique style for each client. We tend to place such a focus and emphasis on our physical health, whether through dietary or physical exercise but can easily neglect our mental health. Our mental health is just as important as it is a part of what makes us who we are. We all deserve to have a healthy well-being and I believe that counselling is a method to which this can be achieved.

Hi, I'm Eleanor. I’m a warm, empathetic and calm person with a genuine interest in people’s stories; how what’s happened to us shapes how we are in the world. I'm interested in the meaning of your distress, whatever form it might take, and helping you find a way forwards. I'm an integrative psychotherapist. This means that I'm trained in different techniques. I draw on psychodynamic theory, person centred theory, cognitive behavioural theory (CBT) and ideas from existential philosophy. Whatever is most appropriate to you and what you're coming to therapy with. My approach is LGBTQIA+ positive.

Hello and welcome. I am a Psychotherapeutic Counsellor and work with both current life problems as well as long-term issues. Passionate about mental health and personal growth I offer a supportive space to reflect and work collaboratively. You may have an underlying sense of feeling stuck, struggle with low mood and anxiety, or would like to work on coming to terms with a loss or a past experience. Therapy can help to gain a fresh perspective, self-awareness and work towards finding acceptance. Taking the first step can often feel daunting and I offer a free introductory phone call to explore any questions and concerns you may have.

Welcome. I'm an Integrative therapist drawing from a range of therapeutic ideas and approaches in order to offer an individual service to each of my clients accorrding to their needs. I work in a relational way, meaning that I see therapy as a joint venture, an alliance in which I try to facilitate clients in understanding themselves, their needs and their difficulties - whatever may be getting in the way of achieving their goals and enjoying their lives. I also help clients to navigate the emotionally painful and challenging experiences that life brings to us all, to process past traumas and to explore relationship issues.

Dealing with a loss or major change in your life? Feeling overwhelmed by trauma from your past or by a current relationship? Experiencing family difficulties and or realising your values are different from the ones you grew up with? At some points in our lives we all need extra support and this is nothing to feel ashamed of, in fact asking for help is one of the bravest things you can do. I offer an empathic, non-judgmental approach and warmth in our journey together. This will enable you to explore the sometimes painful feelings, past experiences and stuck patterns of behaviour that may be holding you back.

My approach to counselling has been formed from my own experiences, I believe everyone has the capability to reach a place of peace and live a fulfilling life but to do so you must learn about yourself. This can be an uncomfortable process but one that I believe is worth it. My purpose is to support my clients on their journeys to gain a deeper understanding of themselves and to empower them to make the changes they want to align with the life and the person they want to be. I am passionate about enhancing others experience of life as I am of my own but with the awareness that these changes can only come from within.

Hi, I’m Lakhita. I hope to provide an open, compassionate, and non-judgemental therapeutic space for you to be able to process, understand and make sense of your experiences. Working together, I aim to see the world through your eyes, always holding in mind parts of your identity that you choose to bring with you, such as your race, culture, gender, and religion. I work in a very humanistic and person-centred way, considering your needs and tailoring evidenced-based therapy to provide you with the skills and tools to support you moving forward with life, and for you to live the most fulfilling version of it.

I am a Person-Centred/humanistic therapist, focus strongly on the emotional and relational, on the validating bond. My therapy space is one of safety and acceptance. No value judgements. No pathologizing. And from you: no more beating up! Indeed, I wholeheartedly will support your right to fuck up. You're a human-being, a Mensch. This is how we learn, by slipping up. I'll then focus on what lead to the slipping and any other obstructions that stand between you and a happier/more fulfilled you, then will explore ways with you to tackle these, through everyday little positive actions. All das übrigens gerne auch auf deutsch!

Your curiosity about therapy at this point in your life may feel really clear to you and then again, maybe it doesn’t. It’s not always the things that have happened in your life but also those things that haven’t. This might show up as not feeling good about yourself or connections in your life. There could also be things you want to reflect on and understand better. As a qualified Integrative Counsellor, I can support you with perspective and working through what would be helpful. I know how hard it can be to ask for help and I know the value of talking it out in a private and understanding space.

I know from experience that it can be hard to know where to start, and to take the first step. Especially if feeling uncertain, vulnerable or anxious. I welcome you to contact me for an initial chat. We can figure things out from there.
