Many people come to therapy feeling low, anxious or lost, and I offer a space to explore those experiences and identify opportunities for doing things differently. I welcome people from all backgrounds and experiences, and usually start by working with you to understand who you are and what is important to you. I draw on a range of approaches (e.g. narrative therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy, and compassion focused approaches), with a particular focus on values and identity. I am experienced in supporting adults of all ages with a range of issues, such as low mood, stress, anxiety and shame.

Hello. It can be daunting to take the first step to find the right kind of help. Some people seek help for specific reasons, or diagnoses. However, many people also come because they feel stuck, struggle with strong emotions that threaten to overwhelm, have a past loss or bereavement, low self- esteem, lack confidence or sense of self or have a loss of meaning in their lives, dissatisfaction in work or an inability to form satisfactory relationships. All of which make it hard to function at your best or feel that life is fulfilling. You don’t always need a diagnosed condition to access therapy.

Are you struggling with self-esteem? Maybe you worry a lot about what people think of you and you tend to be very critical of yourself. You tend to be overly nice to people and you struggle to set boundaries and have a voice of your own. You may have grown up having to be 'good' and feel like you don't know who you are underneath that good persona and you're a little scared to find out. Maybe you've tried to figure it out on your own but realised you need help and support. You want someone who can help you get to the root of your inner struggles and create profound transformation into self-love and confidence.

You find yourself here because you want to share your burden. Whatever it is, grief, anxiety, depression. These are signs of things in our lives we cannot or have not been able to control. Loss of a loved one, miscarriage, abortion, breakdown of relationships, difficulty making sense of life after loss. Often we can turn to unhelpful and even harmful behaviours that leave us without hope. Through counselling, sharing the burden, speaking the unspeakable, we can find a way to untangle the struggles and give them a place. Finding words for feelings we don’t like, finding a way through the fog that stops us from seeing a way ahead.

We all have times in our lives where we might be experiencing conflict, or unhappiness. You might need help having experienced trauma, grief, loss, with conflicts in beliefs, ideas/ ways of parenting, or struggles we can have with unsupportive families . You might need help with freedom from shame, stress, have problems with trust, anger, conflict or rejection, help as a couple to communicate or as a parent. Most people I work with want to be loved or understood, to have agency, to have (and give) attention, to have freedom, to create, to belong, to win or to connect. Wherever you're at, we can work together towards your goals.

Hello. Perhaps your relationships feel like hard work, or you're struggling with anxiety, depression or anger. Maybe you feel in the grip of trauma or abuse, or you're feeling stuck. Or do you simply feel that something’s not right? It may be difficult to talk about these things with those closest to you, whereas therapy can be a place to reflect away from your everyday life to bring about the change you're seeking. Whatever's troubling you, I provide a calm, confidential and non-judgmental space to navigate things together. My aim is for us to develop understandings, meanings and solutions, so you can move beyond your difficulties.

I am interested in working with individuals to discover and understand their unique profile so that I can help them manage the challenges they face.

I also have an excellent understanding of the often misunderstood mental health challenges autistic people have to grapple with.

Hi, I'm Sophie, and I would love to support you in changing the narratives and overcoming the barriers that are holding you back. It can be challenging to step into therapy and I offer a compassionate, non-judgemental and motivational space for my client's to move towards a fulfilling and meaningful life. I highly specialise in helping people with disordered eating, body image, low self-esteem and confidence issues. Having lived experience of this myself, I can empathise with the battle and I am passionate about offering a safe and effective therapeutic experience that is person-centred and culturally sensitive.

I am able to use different therapeutic approaches to suit each client rather than just following one approach with everyone. I utilise a number of therapy approaches, therefore, to create a warm, supportive environment in which clients feel safe. The relationship we develop in the counselling room is key to the success of the work.

Hi, welcome. I believe one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your story. Perhaps you are intrigued in deprogramming previous patterns that you feel do not serve you? Creating a new foundation that starts internally and has a positive ripple effect on those close to you and around you. There are times when everyone experiences challenging and distressing feelings which can interfere with everyday life and relationships. That is when it can be helpful to talk things through with a completely neutral person who you know will be supportive and respond non-judgmentally.

Hi there, I'm Will, and whatever brings you here today – welcome, maybe I can help. I'm a BACP registered counsellor based in London Bridge, Crystal Palace and online, offering short and long-term therapy to adults. I work in a way that is kind, thoughtful and imaginative. First and foremost, I listen deeply – to the content and the process. Over time, I seek to make connections between patterns in your day-to-day life, to patterns from your past, to patterns in the dynamic between us. The result is a growing space of awareness around these that, grounded in a supportive relationship, fosters clarity, meaning and positive change.
