Relationship Issues Counselling in North London, London

Sometimes people come with something specific such as anxiety or a bereavement, following a relationship breakdown or with obsessive compulsive symptoms.
I offer a place to be, a place to be heard, where you can be yourself, or find yourself. A place to understand patterns and roles, to think, to feel, without judgement, if you feel stuck, or want things to be different: a place to explore.

My experience also involves relationship difficulties, trauma, and anxiety.
You may be experiencing a period in your life where personal circumstances are proving quite challenging, sometimes these difficulties can become overwhelming causing us to withdraw. The therapeutic process allows room for change and with the support of a therapist, progress can begin towards a different outlook towards yourself, your current circumstances and resources to develop and maintain a greater quality of life.

I am trained to integrate a number of ways of therapy that provide the best opportunity to help you and by developing a good therapeutic relationship I can support you in the route through your problems.
There are many reasons to look for a therapist, ranging from a crisis now to a general feeling of unhappiness, stemming from your past. Life throws up many events and difficulties and we aren't always able to solve these on our own. Anxieties, stress, feeling sad, isolation, as well as relationships, families, parenting, marriage, divorce, addictions, bereavement and loss are issues that we will all face at some point in our lives. They can leave us feeling confused and lost and without anyone to help us make sense of it. Therapy is safe, secure & non judgemental providing understanding, insight leading to change for you.

My approach integrates: Psychodynamic and CBT Therapies, with a Relational and Humanistic emphasis on authentic relationship.
There are times in everyone's life when things can feel overwhelming. At others, we can find ourselves repeating unhelpful or destructive patterns in our behaviour or relationships. At these difficult, and sometimes very distressing times, therapy can, quite literally, be a life-saver. For others, therapy can be an exciting and challenging space for personal development, growth and exploration. I have worked in the field of mental health for over 20 years. I work in both the NHS and as a consultant in Private Practice. I am also a senior tutor at the Minster Centre a pre-eminent training organisation for Psychotherapists.

We will build a relationship that allows you to express what you have longed to say, but have not had the space to, yet.
Perhaps you’ve felt stuck for a while, or have been feeling that something isn’t right but can’t quite identify what that is. You may be anxious, depressed, have low self-esteem. Maybe you are struggling in relationships, or finding it difficult getting your needs met? You may have often felt that you don’t belong, or that you’re not supposed to be doing the work you do. Perhaps you’d like to feel less frustrated, angry or alone? You may be experiencing grief, or struggling with addiction, you might have low libido, or want to explore your sexuality. It might be a family or historic issue you’d like to make sense of. I can help.

I am qualified to see couples having trained with Relate as a Relationship Counsellor.
There can be times in our lives when we experience distressing events or feelings which seem overwhelming. This can be due to a particular circumstance such as difficulties in our current relationships, work related stress, illness, bereavement, or dealing with painful memories from our childhood. Sometimes we have no idea what is making us feel the way we do. All we know is that life has become distressing, or even intolerable. It could be at these times a talking therapy may be a helpful option.

So, finding a relationship where you feel trusting enough to speak freely, can be transformative.
Supported by extensive clinical literature & evidence base, psychodynamic psychotherapy offers a confidential, exploratory space where confused, unsettled or disturbing feelings can be safely revealed.

I believe that spending some time on forming a positive therapeutic relationship is helpful at the start as well as throughout the therapy process.

I also place great importance on being genuine and honest when working with people, so am always keen to review our progress and make sure the process is working for you.

Additionally, I work with a range of issues, including depression, low self-esteem, relationship challenges, life transitions, and personal growth.
If life feels overwhelming, like a cluttered desk full of disorganised papers, I’m here to help you make sense of it all. Your thoughts, feelings, and emotions may feel scattered, but together, we can sort through them, piece by piece. Think of the counselling process like going through those papers, organising them, and putting them back in the filing cabinet. This process will bring you clarity, help you understand your past, and guide you forward with purpose.

Relationship Issues Counsellors
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
