Depression Counselling in Mayfair, London

Do you suffer from home and work-based anxiety, stress management, workplace performance, grief/bereavement and/or family conflict? Clients seeing me want help to succeed at work, help with achieving work/life balance from COVID-19, and help resolving communication difficulties with co-workers and family members. Clients who see me come for solutions to problems, not drawn out therapy or coaching. My aim is to help you in a minimal amount of time, for an affordable price that beats out most psychologists and coaches.

Hello, and welcome to my profile. I am a fully qualified psychodynamic therapist and psychologist with an unwavering belief in the power we all have to find our way to our true, authentic selves.

Maybe you feel stuck and all your usual coping strategies do not work at this point; Maybe something difficult and traumatic happened that you need to process and learn to move on; Maybe you got trapped and overwhelmed with anxiety and it stops you from enjoying your life; Maybe you feel deep down in the sadness and struggling to see positive and enjoyable side of life and world; Maybe your childhood trauma shadows got out of the hiding place triggered by relationships or parenting or some challenging circumstances; Maybe you would like to build your confidence, get your sense of self back and get the best of your life.

Is your mind hi-jacked by constant chatter ? Do you feel overwhelmed by emotions? Are you having a hard time sleeping at night or focusing on work/studying or other important people or matters? Do you have a hard time setting healthy boundaries? Sometimes life can seem overwhelming and make us feel stuck and unable to move at all which can lead to destructive behaviours or isolation.

Are you finding it difficult to understand your feelings? Are you finding it difficult to understand why you behave the way you do, even when you have promised yourself to change? Seeing a psychotherapist can help you navigate through the darkness of the unexplored mind. I work deeply below the surface in order to find meaning. Therapy can be intense, but with supported guidance this can make the journey less daunting. Whatever your motivation and reason for therapy, we can work toward your goals to ensure that therapy works for you. My experience vary, but what is consistent is my dedication to provide the best support required.

Life is an intricate tapestry of experiences, challenges, and questions. Our existential approach acknowledges the inherent complexities of existence and invites people to explore the fundamental questions of meaning, purpose, and identity. Through introspection and dialogue, we delve into the depths of human existence, empowering clients to confront their fears, embrace their values, and cultivate a deeper sense of authenticity and fulfillment.

I am an experienced counsellor also offering supervision for counsellors. I work with children , young people, adults and families. Life is tough and I therefore offer support for people who are struggling with their mental health. I have worked in education for the past 10 years working in primary and secondary schools and now in a university setting. I provide counselling to marginalised populations, including clients of Asian Black African/African-Caribbean heritage and those from the LGBTQIA+ community and potentially struggling with their sexuality and/or identity.

I am an experienced couple and individual psychodynamic psychotherapist, with additional qualifications and training in systemic approaches to working with individuals, families and organisations. I trained at Tavistock and Portman Clinic and at Tavistock Relationships, a world-renowned institution and specialist in relationship therapy. My aim is to help individuals and couples better understand themselves and their relationships, so they can have more supportive and fulfilling relationships. With therapy, both the couple and the individual can gain insight and grow – emerging strengthened by the experience.

We all long for a connection in which we are never reduced or misunderstood. Therapy is a journey of self-discovery, through which we develop a deeper self-awareness, can recognize patterns and make kinder, more positive choices for ourselves and those around us. By bringing awareness and understanding to what is causing us pain or problems, we can learn to move away from self-defeating patterns of survival and towards a new future aligned with our inner integrity. Psychosynthesis works holistically, nurturing synergy between all parts of your personality, enhance introspection, build ego strength and foster resilience.

I provide a one-to-one, face-to-face counselling and personal development service. The setting is a safe, comfortable, quiet and confidential place where you can explore and gain a deeper understanding of the issues you bring to counselling. I will support you in finding a new way of of working that has prevented you from leading the life you desire. I provide a holistic serviice that is bespoke to your needs by using an integrative approach, drawing from psychodynamic, person-centred and humanistic theories of counselling.

In my experience, we tend to come to therapy when we feel 'stuck' in a way of living which is becoming increasingly difficult and painful to sustain. Perhaps when our 'old' self seems to have gone missing; our self-esteem is fragile; our past casts long shadows on our present and the future feels more scary than exciting. If any of this resonates with you, my existential approach to therapy will provide you with a safe place in which to explore and process any trauma in your past; pain in the present and anxiety about the future. Helping you to bring the 'real you' out of hiding and find a more joyful and authentic way of living.

I offer a safe online therapeutic service. I specialise working with young and older adults and LGBTQ+. Do you feel lost, desperate, alone and have tried other avenues but still find your right back at the same place. Are you grieving a lost one. At Safe Space Therapy we can explore why you are not able to move forward and be the authentic person you can be. We can explore the blocks and barriers and old patterns that have suppressed you in life. I have a strong ethos with supporting clients to explore and set their own inner boundary, therefore allowing and empowering you to find your own inner therapist.

The fact that we are alive, proves we are resilient and creative enough in our attempts to face life’s challenges. At times our experience may become overwhelming or too painful to adapt to, or the adaptation may come with great consequences. The long-term effects of this may lead to anxiety, low mood or lack of confidence. When stress keeps us in its grip for too long, some health problems or physical pain / psychosomatic symptoms may develop as a consequence. You may be feeling that you cannot live fully or express yourself, as if there was a block or a barrier between you and life, you and others, or you and your core self.

I am a fully qualified Humanistic Integrative Counsellor working in Belgravia/Victoria in Central London. I use a number of different theoretical approaches: Person-Centred, Psychodynamic, Gestalt, CBT, TA, Mindfulness, NLP and Transpersonal Approaches and I provide both short and long term therapy. Counselling is a journey; a special relationship that provides space for inner discovery, helping to develop potential and meaning. It is a non-judgmental and empathic space where issue can be transformed.

Are you experiencing emotional difficulties in your life? You may be finding yourself unhappily repeating unhelpful patterns or behaviours. You might feel disconnected from yourself, others or both.

Therapy works whatever the presentation when the connection with the client/patient is a positive one and it becomes a mutual endeavour to feel better and work in goals. The majority of clients present with wanting help with relationships and/or sex. Therapy helps deepen both physical and sexual intimacy and invariably better understanding of relationships. Many of my clients want to improve sex and their relationships. People want to be understood and not shamed for their thoughts, actions feelings

Having experienced difficult times in my personal life, I have developed a deep appreciation for the transformative power that exists within each of us. I believe that therapy can serve as a catalyst to unlock this potential for healing. As an integrative practitioner, I incorporate a range of psychological theories and techniques in my practice, guided by research findings and the specific needs and preferences of my clients. I deeply value diversity and recognise that each person's experience is unique.

I am an experienced, registered and chartered Counselling Psychologist trained in a variety of psychological models and tailor my approach to suit individual client needs.
