I am a Chartered Clinical Psychologist and I offer psychological therapy for adults with a range of difficulties. I take a collaborative and compassionate approach with my clients, as we work together to meet your therapeutic goals. I have expertise in trauma and neurodivergence and often work with clients who are wondering if they may be autistic, or have a confirmed diagnosis. Whilst I draw on a number of evidence based psychological approaches in my therapeutic work, I mainly EMDR which has a strong evidence based for trauma and anxiety.

I offer a warm and thoughtful therapeutic space where you can take time to explore what’s happening in your life — whether that’s emotional difficulty, relationship struggles, or a more subtle sense that something isn’t quite right. I work with a wide range of presenting issues including: anxiety, depression, overwhelm, family tension, anger, burnout, and questions around identity, energy, and self-esteem. A central part of my practice is working with neurodivergent clients — including those who identify with autism, ADHD, sensory sensitivity, or simply experience the world in a way that hasn’t always felt fully understood.

Hi, my name is Rimpy Sandhu. I have been working in my private practice as a counsellor and psychotherapist for 13 years . I know it can be very scary and difficult to talk about your issues, revisit those painful memories. Sometimes it’s hard to recognise and express your own feelings. I offer a professional, supportive, confidential, non judgmental and ethical therapy in order to help with your presenting issues. Counselling helps you to understand yourself and to find coping strategies to deal with the day to day difficulties you might be facing.

You’ve already shown courage by reaching out. If you're living with trauma, chronic pain, PTSD, loss, ADHD, ASD, Dyslexia or had a recent diagnosis, or the impact of abuse, I understand how heavy life can feel. I offer a calm, confidential space where you can speak freely and be met with compassion—not judgment. I might not be everyone’s cup of tea, and I don’t have a one-pill-fix-all—but when others have failed or let you down, I can walk beside you. I’ve been there too, and I’ll help you find the best version of you.

Hi! I’m Shuchi, a qualified counsellor who works online, primarily with adults and teenagers. I am not your typical "nod and smile" counsellor - in my work with my clients, I empathise, support and also challenge you unequivocally. I aim to engage fully with you in our sessions, consciously choosing to limit the number of clients I see every week so as to be fully present with you. Sessions with me are honest,  emotional, deep and sometimes even a tad humorous since I truly believe that humour, when used correctly, can be extremely therapeutic. I always work to provide you with an absolutely safe, non-judgemental space.

Life is full of events, relationships, stresses and strains and all these impact on us in many different ways. It can affect all the important things to us such as school, work, relationships and our own perception of ourselves. This can be tiring and overwhelming. Fortunately, it doesn’t have to be this way and I believe strongly that a person can benefit from having a space to discuss their feelings and develop ideas and strategies to improve their emotional wellbeing.

Personality Disorders Counsellors
What are the common treatment options for personality disorders?
Personality disorders are typically treated with psychotherapy, sometimes in conjunction with medication. Therapy can help people with personality disorders develop skills to tolerate difficult emotions, navigate interpersonal relationships, and solidify their sense of self. Medications can treat symptoms that co-occur with the disorder, such as depression, anger, aggression, and impulsivity.

When to seek treatment for personality disorders?
Even though treatment for personality disorders can be an uphill battle, it’s best to seek help if you suspect that you or a loved one is struggling with one, because personality disorders can create substantial problems in life. Symptoms depend on the specific disorder, but overall signs of personality disorders include consistent difficulty maintaining close relationships, dramatic variations in self-esteem, and an unstable sense of identity.

How long does therapy take for personality disorders?
The timeline for treating personality disorders isn’t as clear-cut as it is for other disorders. Change can be difficult, taking from around one year to five, 10, or more. The key is finding a therapist who has extensive experience treating the relevant disorder. For example, a psychologist who specialises in narcissistic personality disorder has specific communication strategies that allow them to sustain the relationship and be more effective with narcissistic patients.

Can therapy help people with personality disorders?
Research suggests that for those who are motivated to address concerns or interpersonal conflict related to a personality disorder, therapy is far more effective than no treatment, and that most people in therapy see improvements. However, since personality disorders involve entrenched elements of identity, they are less responsive to treatment than are other mental health conditions. Finding an expert who has extensive experience working with a given personality disorder is one factor that increases the likelihood of successful treatment.
