Chronic Illness Counselling in Southwark, London
I am Relate trained specialising in Relationship and Sex Therapy. In order to keep our relationships healthy we need to attend to them to ensure they remain respectful, trusting, sexual and happy. Because of the busyness of day to day life, we can easily disconnect from our partners without realising it leading to a lack of communication, conflict, affairs, and dissatisfaction. When married, or when children are involved, these problems become even more complex. It might even be that since the country's lockdown, you are now realising there are issues in your relationship. Now could be a good time to resolve these.

Therapy for when you’re holding it together — but struggling inside.
You might look like you’re managing — but inside, you’re overwhelmed, overthinking, or feeling disconnected from yourself. Maybe you’re stuck in patterns you don’t fully understand, or your relationships feel more like hard work than connection. I’m Avis Underwood, a psychodynamic therapist offering a calm, reflective space where you don’t have to make sense of it all alone. Together, we’ll explore what’s going on beneath the surface and begin to shift long-held patterns at their roots.

Feeling stuck? The causes can be many: relationship issues, redundancy, bored in the job or even things sometimes termed as “mental illness.” I use that last term carefully because though it can help define the symptoms, if often fails to get at the human story beneath which is always there and needs addressing as well as any medical issues. In my sessions my aim is to help you past what eve holds you back into a better life- whatever that means to you.

I am a psychotherapist and supervisor and have been working with individuals and groups for the last twenty years. For several years I was on the training committee at AGIP including two years as chair. I am currently the course leader for the Guild's diploma in psychoanalytic supervision. I would describe my orientation as psychoanalytic from within a contemplative perspective. By this I mean that I subscribe to the idea of an unconscious and believe events and attitudes from early life can impact on our lives today. I understand that an awareness of these currents helps to increase the choices available to us.

Sometimes outwardly we look like we are getting on with life and functioning just fine, but inside it can feel very different. Are you feeling stuck or alone, not managing in your relationships with others? Perhaps you need space to discuss confusing thoughts and emotions you can't understand and the conflicts that cause you distress.

Is anxiety draining you? I support people in their 20s and 30s who are tired of overthinking and feeling anxious and are ready for some calm and clarity.
Maybe you appear calm or ‘fine’ to others, but internally you’re feeling stressed and tired. Maybe anxiety gets in the way of what you want or need to do - this may look like procrastinating, struggling to say ‘no’ or what you really mean, or finding it difficult to make decisions because you worry you won’t do things the ‘right’ way. Your usual coping strategies may be to stay busy or just push through without asking for help, but this comes at a cost: you’re likely exhausted.
