When we are struggling with our painful feelings, we could feel ourselves confused and unable to move in life. Working together, we will explore your present situation in a confidential, secure and comfortable setting. You will reflect on your own thoughts, feelings and experiences and we will identify underlying issues and emotional patterns which have a bearing on your current difficulties. We will activate resources from inside you and find new strategies to effectively deal with your life events. Languages: Italian and English. I offer both online and face to face sessions. Location: Collier's Wood (SW19).

Life is full of challenges. Everything from work, partners, relationships with family and friends or the lack of these things can bring anxiety, confusion, conflict and trigger feelings of fear, anger, jealousy, or low self-esteem. The sorts of feelings and emotions we often try to hide away and that end up affecting us and our relationships in unhealthy ways. I work as an integrative counsellor, which allows me to tailor my approach to each client focusing on the problem at hand and working with you to create a clear path towards your desired outcomes from therapy.

Modern life in a big city like London can be exciting but also unsettling at times. It is easy to sometimes feel overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, alone and at loss of where to start. Therapy can help in times of uncertainty. By exploring your thoughts and feelings from both past and present, links can be made to increase your understanding and thereby helping you moving forward. Increased self knowledge and insight can be crucial in forming close and authentic relationships with others, often bringing higher self esteem as a result. Therapy can be a good support and give you hope when you are going through a difficult time.

I am adept in working with issues of diversity and cultural integration and have co-written a research study on masculine identity that was presented at the 2023 International BACP Research Conference. I brings my knowledge and experience in my approach with younger persons who explore their identity and look to address and cultivate self-esteem. My work as a counsellor is additionally informed by my previous career within the fashion industry, which so frequently focuses on celebrating individualism. I embrace the unique nature of human experience in all its manifestations (biological, emotional, psychological, social).

Through counselling I provide a space just for you where you can gain insight, experience change, and realise your full potential. You may be experiencing difficulties, such as a relationship breakdown, struggling with depression or anxiety, or feeling shame or low self-esteem. Perhaps you sense something hasn’t felt right for a while, but you are unable to pin point why. Counselling gives you time each week to slow down and can help you recognise your own feelings and needs, and develop deeper connections and relationships. Counselling allows you the opportunity and space to get in touch with who you are and what you want in life.

Hello and Welcome. My interest in psychotherapy has developed over years of working in conflict environments and as an Executive Coach. So often, clients brought issues to coaching that needed deeper exploration: anxiety, depression, relationship problems, loss, bereavement, addiction to food, alcohol or other substances to relieve stress, low self esteem , and self-limiting beliefs. Counselling and psychotherapy provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you can work through issues that are of concern to you. The therapeutic process can help you to make changes in your life, develop self awareness and improve well-being.

Self Esteem Counsellors

When should a person seek therapy for low self-esteem?

When self-esteem problems begin to disrupt the healthy daily functioning of an individual, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not engaging with friends for fear of being judged, not completing work assignments because they don’t think they’re capable, or not finding romantic love because they don’t feel they’re worthy of it, a therapist may be able to help.

What are the signs of low self-esteem?

Low self-esteem is a common issue that can affect a person's mental and emotional well-being. Some common signs of low self-esteem include negative self-talk, perfectionism, social anxiety, difficulty making decisions, an inability to set boundaries, people-pleasing, and others. A lack of belief in oneself or one’s abilities and a feeling of not being worthy or deserving underlie most of these characteristics.

What causes low self-esteem?

Feelings of low self-worth can begin in childhood or adulthood. Being raised by a highly critical parent or growing up feeling constant disapproval can stay with a person well into adulthood. Specific issues in adulthood may also be a cause of low self-esteem. An unhappy relationship, a dysfunctional work or school experience can impact a person’s feelings of self-worth.

How can therapy improve self-esteem?

Therapists can help identify negative thought patterns that keep the client stuck in a loop of destructive self-talk and develop coping skills to change the voice in their head. A therapist can help with goal-setting, so that clients are better able to stay on task and build confidence from successfully completing work they’re proud of. Coaching a client on how to better communicate can improve relationships. These skills can result in someone with low self-esteem feeling empowered and living with less fear.
