Counselling in City of London, London

Talking things through can lead to change, giving new perspectives on your situation and increased sense of personal choice, with a richer connection to yourself and others. Nobody is exempt from finding life overwhelming, perhaps it can feel that anxiety or depression has reached unbearable levels. Do you want to explore your thoughts and feelings within the safety of a therapeutic relationship? Why Psychotherapy? In a safe and confidential space you can talk in depth and together we can explore whatever is troubling you, making sense of your distress.

Clicking through profiles can feel bewildering, especially when emotions are unsettled and the future feels uncertain. However, finding the right emotional support at the right time, can be transformative. I am a well established clinician working closely with clients presenting a broad range of problems commonly underpinned by (often chronic) anxiety and/or depression. My aim is to relieve your distress swiftly through a warm & pragmatic approach & by establishing a facilitatory space where thoughts & feelings can be safely revealed. I am impartial, attentive, curious, determined and experienced.

Psychotherapeutic Counsellor, Clinical Supervisor. My approach to working with you, embraces a collaborative, fluid and integrative perspective that is rooted in empowerment, humanistic and person-centred values.

When people contact me for professional support, they often want fast results so as to be able to quickly start to feel better and to feel more in control. Over a period of more than 10 years as a Psychotherapist, I have developed a way of working that quickly allows people to feel more in control amidst the most complex of issues we face as humans.

It can be difficult to take that first step of finding help, especially if you are finding it hard to pinpoint what is wrong. People around us often push us towards decisions that might not be right for us and might not be ours. I seek to give someone the space and time to explore what is happening, with an honest, open response that enables them to think about their own wants and needs and to have autonomy over their decisions. My practice is GSRD (Gender, Sexuality and Relationship Diversity) informed.

Welcome! I have been working as a counsellor and psychotherapist since 1998 and work as a supervisor too, with practices in Exeter and London and online. I believe that many of our difficulties develop due to our early life and past experiences, including trauma. We repeat patterns in our lives hoping that things will get resolved. Sometimes these patterns are unhelpful to us. Therapy offers, in a confidential and safe space, the possible facilitation of being able to recognise these patterns and approach them from a new perspective.

My aim is to help you achieve insight into what makes you tick, and for us to work collaboratively to develop strategies that assist you in living a complete, fulfilling life. While you will have some immediate pressing issues that bring you to therapy, we can also explore any longer-term, underlying issues concerning you. It is important to me that you feel comfortable to talk about your problems, experiences and personal thoughts.

Do you feel you want to change something in your life? Or perhaps you just need to explore your thoughts and feelings in a confidential, non-judgemental space? Do you feel disconnected or distant in your relationships? Or perhaps you have been affected by an external factor that you’re having difficulty coming to terms with? Therapy will offer you the opportunity to re-establish some balance in your world by helping you make sense of things or understand them better.  Engaging in therapy, gives you the opportunity to find some inner peace with yourself and work towards being a better and happier version of yourself.

Are you feeling somewhat lost or stuck? Perhaps overwhelmed? And it seems hard to go on? Or past pain is bubbling too close to the surface, again? And you think life could be different, and you still have those dreams... In such times we all need compassionate and effective care from someone with wisdom, therapeutic experience and specialized training. I've been there and since I've been on a quest for ways that work at all levels of human experience, with lasting results for the whole person. I let my intellectual curiosity and intuition lead the way and it proved so worth it.

Mid-life for women can often be a time of new challenges and changes. This could be looking after ageing parents whilst juggling other commitments like a job and a family. It could be children getting older, leaving home leaving you wondering what your role and meaning in life is now. You could be having difficulty adjusting to the effects of the menopause. It can be easy to lose sight of who you truly are and your own needs and desires. However, these changes are also an opportunity to step into your own power and values and help curate a life that feels meaningful and fulfilling to you.

We believe that everyone is unique and therefore is dealt with in a way that best caters to his or her individual needs. We work with you by exploring your world to see how you engage with your life and the people around you. Along the journey, we will explore your past, look at your present and see how you perceive the future. We will help you become more aware of your values, beliefs and limitations and help you connect and improve your relationship with yourself. This process may be challenging, yet extremely rewarding as we access the changes you want to make towards living the life that you want to live.

I offer clients a warm, collaborative space to be heard and understood. The therapeutic relationship I aim to create is that of respect, non-judgement and strict confidentiality. This safe foundation allows us to bring clarity and insight to thoughts and feelings, and an environment for exploring positive, lasting change. The pace of the therapy is attuned to individual client needs and experiences.
