Female Counselling in Pinner, ENG
Hello and welcome. Counselling helps you understand and make sense of your thoughts and feelings. We will explore what you’re finding difficult, and unpack this further. I offer a safe and confidential space, where you can talk openly, be heard and listened to without judgement. Are you or your teen struggling emotionally? Have you suffered a bereavement, or is anxiety taking control? I can offer you a space where you can begin to express yourself, and process what’s going on for you. Counselling can help you with relationships, communication and self worth, it can help you build self awareness, and in turn help you to make changes.

I have worked for local agencies such as the Women's Centre and the Watford Peace Hospice.
I am an experienced counsellor and psychotherapist. I believe that the most important part of therapy is that we build a strong and therapeutic relationship together so that you can feel safe to explore your feelings and concerns. We all have times in our life when we need support and it is not always possible to sort things out with the help of family and friends. I would be there to listen and not judge, in a confidential and caring environment. Counselling can feel daunting but can help to empower you to explore and reflect on ways of making changes and moving forward with your life.

I am a qualified Integrative Therapist. I have been working in the charity sector for more than 15 years . My life experiences with Mental Health Illness have made me value how important it is to share those experiences and to be guided on how to face those fears. I also realized how Mental Health Illness can effect day to day life: Stigma , Pressure , Lack of understanding of different aspects of culture , Backgrounds and Gender can contribute to how we can cope or not cope with all those challenges . Life can be full of difficulties but also full of surprises. It is about how we can recognize those experiences to move forward.

If you are feeling anxious, depressed, scared or you are struggling with life in general it can be most helpful to talk with a psychotherapist about your concerns and difficulties. We will identify what you need from counselling and work together to achieve your goals and live more positively and joyfully. As a qualified counsellor and psychotherapist with 30 years of experience I work sensitively to enable you to talk about what maybe troubling you. I create a safe and confidential space where you can express your thoughts and feelings without fear or judgement.

Our past impacts on our present and it can often be confusing and conflicting in our adult responses to current problems. When we cannot make sense of our own thoughts or responses, when our behaviour troubles us or is repetitive. Within the therapeutic process, control is taken back and the symptomatic behaviour in time can be renegotiated and become less powerful. My training is Psychodynamic but with many years of CPD (continuing professional development) I will adapt my style to what will be most helpful to you and what you bring to the sessions. Psychodynamic therapy involves working with the unconscious.

Relationships can be difficult, miscommunication & misattunement of emotions can create patterns of behaviour that can lead to a lack of connectiveness & blocks to intimancy. This can trigger a fight or flight response & the cycle continues. In therapy you can learn to communicate your care seeking & care giving needs in a clear way & change the relationship to a more secure & attuned base. You'll learn the skills to listen to each other & navigate the ruptures & repairs that are part of all relationships. I will work to provide a safe & non biased space for you to resolve them together & decide the best way forward.

Every human being is hurt in some way; in many cases this will manifest as depression, anxiety or some other way which gets in the way of personal development and the ability to reach out to his or her potential. Therapy provides a relationship in which clients are able to accept themselves as they are and value themselves as individuals. Every individual has an urge to develop as a whole, finding the tendency to actualize and become a more fully functioning person. It is the joy of a therapist to assist the client in these breakthroughs.I am working as a senior counsellor and supervisor in NHS.

I really believe that asking for help is the first step to self awareness which in turn can bring you self acceptance and most importantly self worth.

Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
