In Person Counselling in Acton, London
Are you struggling with your sense of self, your relationships and how you relate to others? Do you feel stuck in unhelpful life patterns and something gets in the way of you fulfilling your potential ? Psychotherapy can help identify unhelpful patterns in relationships and how unconscious dynamics can be rooted in the past. My approach would be to work with you to develop more understanding of underlying emotional conflicts and examine new ways of relating in your personal and professional life

I work collaboratively to build a therapeutic relationship that is kind, confidential and trustful. You may bring whatever is on your mind and I will listen and support you towards your goals. I offer short and long-term open-ended counselling to adults to address loss and bereavement, anxiety, depression, loneliness, shame, self-esteem, work issues, identity and belonging, relationships, trauma and intergenerational trauma. This list is by no means exclusive and you may wish to bring something else entirely.

I offer a free 15 minute phone call before meeting. This gives you an opportunity to outline your current circumstances and enables me to consider if I might be able to help you. Your first session will be an assessment where I will ask questions to better understand your past, your present and your expectations. This session is a two-way process for both you and I to consider if we might be able to work together. Any ongoing therapy will last 50 minutes and would typically take place on a weekly basis. I can work in an open ended way or time limited if you would prefer a shorter period. We would then work in a more focussed way

Would you like emotional support - but find that talking is not always easy? I offer a warm, safe and collaborative space where you can explore your concerns through talking and/or the use of art materials. As an integrative counsellor I base my approach on a variety of psychological methods, enabling me to offer broad-spectrum, personalised treatments. Sessions are client-led; meaning I am guided by your needs, and tend to be a mix of talking and creativity. Don't worry! Art making is optional. Also, you do not need to be 'good' at art. The opposite: the more spontaneous and 'unfinished' your creation, often the more therapeutic.

We all go through difficult periods in our lives. Sometimes for easily identifiable reasons - bereavement, loss, heartbreak, employment stress, family or relationship difficulties, trauma. But sometimes things don't feel right and we don't know why. Perhaps you wake up with a feeling of dread. Perhaps you feel empty, going through the motions of a life that no longer feels like the one you wanted. Talking to friends or family can feel impossible, either from shame or a fear of being a burden. It's easy to become trapped in lonely isolation and feel helpless to effect change. I hope I can help you to lighten the load.

In my private practice and as a college school counsellor my clients often face stress, anxiety, and sometimes anger. This may lead to experiencing sadness, feeling despaired, alone, worthless. Life can bring us hardships, many of which may develop into anxiety and unwanted behaviour or attitudes as a result of difficult circumstances. I work with my clients to help them make sense of their difficulties and foster acceptance within. I provide an empathic and non-judgmental space in which we will work together towards your mental wellbeing and peace of mind. I offer a mindful approach to counselling tailored to each situation.

I work both in person in Central and West London and remotely online, and offer both short term and open ended therapy.
If you are struggling with feeling overwhelmed, unhappy, anxious or depressed, therapy may be able to help. Psychodynamic Psychotherapy attempts to understand how early relationships and patterns of behaviour can affect and lead to difficulties later in life. Perhaps an immediate crisis or longer term feelings of unhappiness have brought you here; both are valid and may benefit from therapy. I can offer a calm, confidential and supportive space to help you try and understand why you are feeling a certain way, and together we can work to resolve any deeper issues.

"And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom." Life can be difficult at times and we tend to experience our greatest challenges when what we are doing is very different from what we would like to be doing. Sometimes our relationships might not be fulfilling or work can seem pointless or unsatisfactory. This can manifest in distressing thoughts, painful feelings and unhelpful behaviours. Our work together will help you to live a more rich and meaningful life.
