Bereavement Counselling in South East London, London

Sometimes life hits hard and we find it hard to cope. Sometimes everything seems to be well, and still, we are unhappy. There are times when we feel haunted by our past, and times when we just don’t understand some parts of ourselves - thoughts, emotions, or even physical pain. And we are going through increasing global uncertainty: Covid, the current political and financial situation, wars and climate change are only a few of the unsettling topic we are exposed to 24/7 - we are facing a previously unimaginable amount of collective stress, anxiety and grief .

Hello and welcome. I am a senior accredited and registered BACP member and I abide by its professional and ethical codes of conduct. Having lived and worked in different countries including Egypt, Italy, France, the United States and England has increased my understanding of human diversity and has given me the opportunity to value and respect beliefs and traditions other than my own. I hold an MA in Integrative Counselling & Psychotherapy from Roehampton University and, in my approach to counselling, I try to adapt to what works best for you.

Beginning counselling can feel overwhelming , so my aim is to create a safe, non-judgemental space in which you can feel secure, supported and understood. During our work together, we will explore and process the difficulties you are experiencing. We are all affected by life’s journey and often have deep-rooted, painful issues that can prevent us from reaching our potential and establishing and maintaining healthy relationships. I work with clients presenting with a broad range of issues including bereavement , trauma, abuse, trauma, self-esteem, depression, relationships, stress, bereavement , health-related problems and work issues.

Hi, thanks for taking a look at my profile. I’m a mixed race therapist based in Hither Green and currently working online. I understand that modern life can present us with daily stresses and challenges that can add up and feel like too much. I can support you to work through difficult emotions, loss and change. Are you struggling to work something out? Are there losses in your life that you are yet to come to terms with? Is it impacting your relationships, work or home life? Maybe it’s just a feeling that something is not quite ‘right’ for you at the moment.

Hello, my name’s Michelle and I am a Chartered Psychologist and Integrative Psychotherapist. My experience ranges from various issues such as bereavement / grief , trauma, domestic abuse, postnatal depression, homelessness, personality disorders, mental/physical health problems, issues with alcohol, substances as work difficulties. Together, we can make meaning of personal loss , help you to better cope with the difficulties you are facing, address any work challenges you are experiencing, or have healthier relationships.

I am an Integrative Psychotherapist which means I might chose to pull my approach from several different modalities depending on each clients needs. I specialise in areas of trauma/abuse, identity, relationships with self and others, life transitions, bereavement , pre/post natal and anxiety. Our work will be non-judgemental and grounded in honesty, trust and mutual respect. The space we create for you to explore within will be supportive, safe and compassionate. There will be challenges; often this work is about processing deep rooted beliefs and thought-processes/patterns that require committed ongoing reflection and action.

Believing in the uniqueness of each person and their circumstances at any one moment in time, I am committed to a pluralistic approach which acknowledges and values the notion that what might work in one session, might not be successful in another, and that what might be appropriate for one client, might feel uncomfortable for someone else. Our relationship will, therefore, be based on the premise that your therapy will be the outcome of the collaboration between you and I, and will reflect your shifting needs within sessions, and from one session to another, as together we travel beyond the boundary of your previous thoughts.

We all encounter difficult times in life. The loss of loved ones, relationship breakdown, difficulties at work, and poor physical health, for example, may have a huge impact on our ability to function. During these times we may find it difficult to cope and struggle to know what to do to feel better.

I offer counselling at times when life experiences impact on your well-being. I have experience in working with a variety of issues including diversity, bereavement , survivors of sexual abuse and other trauma, current anxiety, depression, self-worth and work issues or stress. We can find ourselves in a cycle with what feels like no way out, and change seems impossible I can help you change these patterns and provide coping strategies. I work with counselling students also and I am a Clinical Supervisor. I have flexible availability.

Welcome to my profile, I have over 20 years experience in therapy and clinical supervision. I am experienced in project management, building Counselling projects in communities where there is disavantage and limited access to therapeutic services. I offer 1-2-1 person centred therapy, taking the first step is the way forward to make changes in your life.

Being understood and accepted, without judgement and with compassion, is the most important experience we can receive from another person.

I am an older woman with a rich and varied life experience - as a teacher, a mother, a fatherless child, and have a harsh inner critic. I have learned about death , loss and bereavement and about my inner critic. Learning about these aspects of my life brought about a new understanding of who I am. Learning about you will bring you a new understanding about who you are and how you became ‘you’. I will actively listen to you, ask questions which will help you express the person who is hiding and help you see yourself as unique and strong. My questions may sometimes be challenging but I will also use humour.

Hi my name is Chris and I have been working as a counsellor for over 20 years. As well as having a small private practice, I spent 12 years working in schools with parents who came with a variety of issues - domestic abuse, loss and bereavement , sexual abuse, lack of confidence and self esteem, trauma and adverse childhood experiences. Experience has confirmed for me that a relationship of trust, understanding and empathy needs to be developed before personal growth can start - I feel this is my area of strength.

Sometimes our problems feel too huge or too painful, sometimes they feel too small to believe they will be taken seriously. Sometimes they just feel too weird, or embarrassing. I welcome you wherever you find yourself, without judgment or expectation. As we work together to unpick the issues you feel are in question, my hope for you is that you will make new discoveries about your sense of yourself. We will explore your present experience, bring your patterns of relating into your awareness, tracing how your past impacts your present, so that you can find your own unique way through the maze and noise, rebuilding your self-love.

I provide a warm and non-judgemental space for people in times of crisis or if they just need a quiet place to talk through what's bothering them. I regularly help clients deal with issues such as anxiety, addictions, eating disorders, grief , family problems, financial worries, relationship issues, women's issues, trauma and work problems.

I am an Integrative Counsellor working with clients from age 7 to beyond retirement age with issues such as anxiety, stress, depression, loss , bereavement , low self-esteem, family issues, relationship or work-related issues. My clients are from a range of different social and ethnic backgrounds and are of different genders and sexual orientations. Our life experiences help shape who we are today. We cannot change the past but with help, we can question our thought processes and let go of disruptive patterns of behaviour. Improving our overall emotional and physical wellbeing starts with talking about our issues.

Having therapy can be a difficult decision, especially when you feel low, self-critical, lonely, anxious, not worthy of having this type of care for your own self. The power to feel better and release this pain is within you, and I can help you access it. Together we can learn the best way for you to reach and keep a good self-esteem and mental health. I offer a confidential space in which you can feel understood, cared for, free to talk about anything that you require. I also offer walking therapy sessions, in peaceful green areas in London. For some clients this has proven deeply beneficial, if interested please enquire.

A counselling environment with a warm and empathic space conducive to unravel what is troubling you, be it feeling stuck, low mood, stressed out, grieving or abused, is offered on a weekly basis. Sessions are client-led, which means that we will work at your own pace. Feeling heard and validated can help you find your voice, gain insight and make decisions that feel right for you.
