Sexual Abuse Counselling in London

I am an integrative therapist that qualified in 2008. I’ve worked with a range of clients with diverse presenting issues. I also have 16 years experience of working with adults presenting with historic, childhood sexual abuse . I have a passion to help those who feel defeated, but haven't quite learnt the tools to overcome. Finding the right counsellor can seem a bit overwhelming. This is why the counselling relationship is very important to me and is key in helping to achieve your goals. I initially use the Person Centred approach to create a safe, non-judgemental, contained, therapeutic space for you and will work at your pace.

The first step towards asking for help can be the hardest. Get in touch and we can take it together. My name is Claudine Astles and I work with clients in the Victoria area of central London, SW1, and also online. I am committed to offering a safe, non-judgemental space in which we can use counselling and therapy to explore your concerns, fears, and anxieties, and work together to help you reconnect with joy. I work with individuals on an open-ended basis or for an agreed time period, with the aim of enabling you to enhance your life and to live it more fully.

I am passionate about supporting individuals with their psychological health and well-being. As a MBACP Integrative Counsellor & Therapist, I have experience of working with children, young people and adults in both educational and medical settings. I engage with individuals in a client-led way, face to face and through telephone communications, developing 1:1 relationships of trust and genuineness. Having experience of providing both short and long-term therapy, I offer a therapeutic space for self-discovery and growth, helping with the facilitation of individuals reconnecting with themselves, family members and society.

​Are your past difficulties or traumatic experiences holding you back from fully embracing the present? If you’re an adult looking for a safe and accepting place to work through childhood/adolescent trauma, domestic/ sexual abuse or other challenges, do get in touch. I offer face to face and online therapy sessions weekly or fortnightly. Practice locations in Crystal Palace and Brockley, South London.

I am aware of the difficulty in making the decision to seek counselling and how overwhelming the process of finding the right counsellor can be. It can be a lonely journey when you are feeling overwhelmed, Counselling provides clients with the opportunity of having someone to explore and help to make sense of their emotions and thoughts. When we struggle with low self concept and shame, we may become stuck due to fear of being exposed (vulnerability). If this is not explored and understood its roots then it could manifest into other emotional issues such as anxiety and depression. Therapy can teach you helpful/healthy coping tools.

I help women overcome trauma, domestic abuse and sexual abuse , so that they can fall in love with themselves and with their ideal partner, reclaim their confidence, and never have to endure harmful relationships ever again. Are you struggling with flashbacks or nightmares, feeling embarrassed about someone mistreating you or having moments when you suddenly feel numb, angry or tearful out of nowhere? If yes, then therapy will help you stabilise your mood, feel safe again and rediscover pleasure in daily life. Even if you have had therapy before, specialist support will get you from where you are to where you want to be.
