It can be a challenge to deal with life's ups and downs which can often leave us feeling worse for wear and you may find yourself saying "its just one thing after another"! Are you struggling to manage, notice yourself becoming more irritated, annoyed, frustrated and angry with yourself and others around you. Perhaps you are becoming more upset, hopeless and depressed, no longer enjoying things as you used to and feel that no-one understands you. If this is the case you may find it helpful to start to talk to someone about what is going on for you.

Anxiety, depression, loneliness, stress, relationship and family conflict.. I recognise the pressures of today’s world and the difficulties we often face reconciling our inner needs with the demands of a busy life and the people we share it with. I am an experienced and mature counsellor and psychotherapist, who retrained in this field after 20 years working in a corporate environment. My experience includes work within the NHS and the Samaritans, where I have seen how easily we can lose ourselves and struggle to cope, and how important it is to find a person or place where we can speak openly and be heard without judgement.

While I am trained in a variety of evidence-based therapies, including cognitive-behavioural therapy, interpersonal Psychotherapy, and Compassion focus based approaches, I also recognise that each person's journey is unique.
As a therapist, my primary goal is to create a safe and supportive space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and behaviour without fear of judgment or shame. I believe that therapy is a collaborative process, and my role is to help you identify and overcome the obstacles that are preventing you from living your best life. I approach therapy from a holistic perspective, recognizing that mental health is closely connected to physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being.

I have a lot of experience in many areas and I work with all areas of distress. I find it paramount to include the whole of the person. This means also the Spiritual dimension of life as well as our Body, Feelings and Mind. This inclusive approach provides a lot of information that we can explore and work with. As I work with clients I encourage and empower clients to determine the direction of the work. In essence we work with what is trying to emerge.

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).

Sometimes people come to counselling or therapy with a particular symptom, after a significant life event or with work-related difficulties. Other times it's more about not quite feeling fulfilled in life, career or relationships. I believe the many ways we come to understand and make sense of who we are, including how we relate to others and the world around us, are central to our mental health and physical wellbeing. Unforseen life events, separations, losses and disappointments can all profoundly affect our sense of who we are.

Many people have had an experience of therapy in the past and it has not produced the results they wanted. This in part can be due to the person going to see a therapist who is trained in one specific therapeutic modality (approach), who then tries to make the client fit that one approach. Collaboratively, we will work together to help you feel better, happier, more in control and confident in who you are as a person. As you begin to understand yourself and why you do things more, this will open you up to greater awareness in all parts of your life; home, work and relationships.

Life itself is complex and through no fault of our own brings up many challenges that can lead to worry, anxiety, self-criticism, stress and low-esteem to name a few. As a clinical psychologist, I am flexible in my approach and work with a range of difficulties. I strongly believe therapy can be such a rewarding experience and the importance of creating a safe space in offering a non-judgemental and compassionate place for a person to feel heard and understood as we work together towards what is important to you. As such, issues relating to past or present, it is a space to create self-awareness and further move towards your values.

Hello, I'm Sree. I have been working in the field of mental health for the past 12 years. I have worked with diverse populations with various mental health conditions. There will be moments in our lives where we feel the need to be supported, validated and understood. Unfortunately, these needs might not always be met. This can create a space for various triggers, and we might not even realise what those are. It's not easy to make sense of all the complexities we face on a day to day basis. Sometimes, it helps to reflect, understand and learn. I want to help you do that.

Interpersonal Counsellors

Is interpersonal therapy evidence-based?

Studies have found interpersonal therapy to be effective for life transitions including retirement, divorce, and job loss. Also, some studies have found it to be just as useful as medication and other therapy approaches. The benefits of interpersonal therapy can last long after treatment has been completed; the individual can use the tenets of this therapy throughout their life.

How long does interpersonal therapy take?

Interpersonal psychotherapy is normally time-limited and focuses on specific problems in the client’s everyday relationships. Treatment can be either one-on-one or take place in a group setting; it tends to last 12 to 16 weeks, depending on the individual client’s needs. If a new interpersonal problem arises in the future, the client may require additional therapy to address it specifically. The timeline and session schedule may vary depending on the client’s challenges as well as their progress. Treatment may conclude with wrap-up sessions to review the client’s accomplishments.

Is interpersonal therapy effective?

Research shows that interpersonal therapy can help someone manage or reduce symptoms of conditions such as depression or anxiety. The approach may also offer a range of benefits that are hard to measure but valuable—including healthier relationships and improved feelings of self-worth. The therapist will give the client practical solutions that can be put into practice. The brief duration of this therapy also means that clients can see changes in their relationships fairly quickly.

What are the limitations of interpersonal therapy?

Interpersonal therapy may not effectively treat certain mental health conditions such as psychosis, chronic illness, or alcohol relapse. Because it is short-term in nature, it may not be the best approach for conditions that need to be tracked, though maintenance sessions are a viable approach under these circumstances.

Can interpersonal psychotherapy be done online?

Yes, interpersonal psychotherapy can be conducted effectively either in-person or online. A therapist with expertise in IPT will be able to adjust their techniques, such as role-playing, to better suit the online environment. Offering online IPT can make it more accessible for clients who have transportation difficulties; it also provides the ideal opportunity to explore challenges unique to digital relationships.
