Hello, my name is Borbala, or Bee for short. As Jean-Paul Sartre wrote, “Freedom is what you do with what’s been done to you.” I believe therapy offers a space to make sense of confusing, difficult or painful feelings while supporting self-discovery and personal growth. I provide a safe, confidential and accepting environment where you may feel able to talk about experiences or feelings you may never have shared with anyone before. Together we build a therapeutic relationship in which you can reflect, question and express your authentic self while I walk alongside you on your journey.

Finding a therapist can be hard, take your time. I'll tell you a bit about me and if you'd like to give me a call, please do.
I want to work with you if you want to be in therapy. If you’ve got niggles or glaring big signs that keep you up at night, if you’re depressed, if you know you’re not quite where you want to be, if you see the past hovering in your present, I’d love to work together.

I work collaboratively to understand how problems have developed, and work towards your goals.

I work with people facing a wide range of issues, and I tailor my approach to suit your individual needs. Together, we’ll find a way of working that feels right for you.
Alongside my private practice at Number 42, I also work in primary and secondary NHS services, and with South East London Mind. This broad experience allows me to meet a wide variety of emotional and psychological needs with sensitivity and care.

I recognise the disproportionate challenges and barriers faced by minoritised ethnic and racialised people, migrants, refugees, disabled people, survivors of child sexual abuse, and people who are LGBTQ+ or otherwise marginalised in terms of their gender, sexual or relationship diversity.
At Southwark Counselling & Psychotherapy I work with individuals, couples and multiple partners.
There’s no “right” reason to seek therapy. My clients come for many varied reasons including conflict, stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, body image issues, disordered eating, addiction, compulsivity, issues around identity, anger, meaning-making, isolation, relationship challenges, life transitions, bereavement, trauma, and the effects of past trauma.

Are you facing challenges in your life which seem impossible to overcome? Maybe you are struggling with intrusive thoughts, feelings of low self-esteem, despair, guilt or shame? Has a bereavement or traumatic incident left you feeling that it’s hard to cope? Do you seek to reconnect with, or strengthen, your relationship or your sex life? I work with individuals and couples, exploring ways in which you can begin to think differently about the obstacles you face, examining your thoughts and feelings with a view to increasing self-awareness and ultimately gaining greater control over your life.

My approach is GSRD (Gender, Sexuality, Relationship Diversity) affirmative meaning i have a passion for and extensive experience supporting Queer & LGBTQI+ as well as other non-heteronormative ways of living/being.
Problems in living often result in diminished capacity and ability to be experimental/creative in thinking, feeling and desiring. Whatever it is that brings you to therapy may require investigation and exploration into your current ways of living/being with careful excavation into your histories (personal, family, transgenerational, existential, etc

I am a highly trained and registered clinical psychologist, with 14 years of experience in the NHS. Most of the people I see come because they are feeling unsatisfied with their life, are struggling to meet their expectations of themselves, or are finding that anxiety or depression is getting in the way of work or relationships. Some come because they just want to understand themselves better. My aim is to help you understand what is stuck and, in doing so, help you to feel more free to live life as you would choose.

I also have a growing base of clients from the LGBTQ+ community and the sex worker community.
I also offer support in coming to terms with narcissistic abuse, or being in relationship with someone with a personality disorder. I am now working with clients with complex trauma and PTSD and use a combination of psychotherapy, CBT and tapping to help work through the psychological, physical and spiritual aspects of healing.

I am an experienced and accredited counsellor working with people of all backgrounds. I offer a safe listening space for clients to speak freely about whatever is troubling them. I work in an integrative way bringing in different approaches based on the individual needs of each person. This includes creative techniques, person centred and CBT approaches. I offer short and long term sessions in Lewisham plus telephone and online counselling to individuals and couples. Recently I qualified as an EMDR therapist and offer this to clients with disturbing memories or trauma that want to let go of the past (see my website for details).

You don’t necessarily need a diagnosis to benefit from therapy, just a desire to simply better understand your mind. Psychotherapy focuses on helping you understand yourself more deeply, including how past experiences may still be influencing how you feel, think and relate to others today. Often, we can find ourselves repeating patterns or responding in ways that don’t feel helpful, without fully knowing why.

I work with adults and adolescents who are, for a variety of reasons, dealing with discomfort throughout their daily lives. This can be internal (who am I? Am I enough? What am I here for?), external or, more often, a messy combination of the above. I work with people like you who are looking for a space to look at what works and doesn't in their lives, finding patterns and using insight to guide real, meaningful change. You might be coming to therapy to cope better, to examine your past experiences or to simply gain insight into yourself. It is what we make it.
Outside of Private Practice I teach therapy at 2 training providers.

The service I offer is queer-, kink-, ENM-friendly and culturally sensitive.
As someone who experienced a profound alignment to my artistic path and community in recent years after what felt like a lifetime of painful trial and error, I am particularly invested in helping individuals who wish to self-actualise any frustrated creative potential or uncover a calling. The transpersonal aspect of psychotherapy deals with a spiritual dimension of the human experience (not necessarily one that is religious) and in this capacity I hope to assist with people undergoing spiritual emergency.
