If you are thinking about counselling it is likely that your life is causing you distress or is not fulfilling in the way you would like it to be. You might be facing a life changing event such as redundancy, bereavement or the end of a relationship. You may be struggling with anxiety, low self-esteem or difficult relationships. Or it may be that feel stuck and don’t know where you are going with your life.

Every person is unique, experiencing an individual journey that sometimes can become difficult to navigate. We can lose our way and the challenges and obstacles we face are hard to negotiate alone. Working with the right psychotherapist allows a client to understand the origin of how things can affect us and what possibilities lie in the here and now to facilitate positive emotional change. I work with individual adults from welcoming rooms in Chiswick and Kensington as well as online. I provide a secure, empathetic, non-judgemental space to reflect & explore experiences, feelings and behaviours from where personal growth can occur.

Hi, I’m Renata – a Psychotherapist and Brazilian Psychologist. Just like most of the people I work with, I’ve lived in different countries - Brazil, UK, USA, Italy and Ireland. Some people come for a more profound healing journey, to understand and process trauma. Others, for work focused on a specific aspect of their lives, like their career, a recent loss, or after an overwhelming life event like divorce, medical diagnosis, or moving.

This time can feel very fragile both individually and collectively which is hard on most of us. How do we navigate our way through the uncertainty and recognise that in this everchanging and fast paced world we can make our way towards our own sense of certainty? During these moments it can be helpful to have someone to walk alongside you. To listen and tune into what you need and want to say. To be heard by another so that ultimately you can hear yourself. Should you need this support I would be honoured to walk a while with you.
