Family Therapy Counselling in SW3

Sometimes our thoughts and emotions can feel too much for us to deal with. We may feel vulnerable, lost, torn or stuck, and find ourselves in need of help. Let me offer you an open, safe and judgment free space, that encourages you to explore whatever's on your mind. I am a qualified and highly experienced UKCP Accredited Counselling Psychotherapist working with adults, couples and groups. I believe that therapy should be an empowering process for each client, therefore taking a collaborative, client-focused approach which respects diversity and difference is essential for an effective therapeutic process.

Life throws up challenges and having somewhere safe, welcoming and empathic to explore your thoughts and feelings with a qualified counsellor can be of real support and benefit. I run an online private counselling practice on zoom. Contact me to arrange a free 50 minute introductory session to help you decide whether I am the right person to work with you.

I approach my work with sincere care, empathy and without judgement. My goal is to empower clients to overcome challenges, gain insight and lead happier, more fulfilling lives. I assist my clients by providing a safe space for self-exploration, facilitating personal growth and developing coping strategies. My approach to couples work focuses on resolving conflicts, rebuilding trust and creating a harmonious partnership. In my clinical practice, I include debt management counselling as a valuable service for clients. My passion is to assist you in a warm, nurturing environment as you address challenging and distressing issues.

Whilst working with clients, my goal is to create a stress-free environment where they can speak freely and won’t feel judged. I feel that therapy helps a person become more self-aware, helps with achievement of goals and encourages you to reflect on the best choices for you.

"I just want to talk about everything that is going on...!". "I want to be happy". "I am looking for a place to vent". "Some days the world is too big". "I do not know what is happening to me". "I am sad". "I am anxious". "I am stressed". "Work is too much". "I feel lonely". "I have a problem with my partner, friends, children, teachers, family, work colleagues...". These are some of the things that I had heard from friends, relatives, colleagues, clients over the years when they are looking for a different point of view or extra support in their life.

Are you struggling with issues like anxiety, depression, addiction, abuse, loss, or relationships? My approach is compassionate and holistic, incorporating Sensorimotor Psyhotherapy, Internal Family Systems and Emotional Freedom Technique, to treat the somatic, emotional and psychological elements of unresolved trauma.

Therapy can be a courageous yet sometimes daunting experience.

With a comprehensive background in psychology and philosophy, and a diploma in psychosexual therapy, I am committed to guiding clients through a transformative process that honours their unique experiences.

People come to therapy for lots of reasons, always motivated by a desire for something new; something better; sometimes uncertain how best to make and manage change; often powerfully resistant to it. You may want to understand how you came to be where you are, or how to stop repeating unhelpful patterns. You may or may not have a specific aim in mind, but you know you want to feel happy and hopeful and alive. Whatever your reason, there's the idea that speaking with an experienced professional should provide relief and insight.
