Female Counselling in N17

I provide safe, confidential and professional psychological therapy which aims to help people to learn to listen and communicate better with their emotions, reflect on their experiences, understand patterns of thoughts and behaviors which may be problematic, and support themselves by investing on the voyage towards self-awareness and self-care. My empathetic approach doesn’t involve judgments of any kind.

Welcome to my practice! I am a psychologist (registered with the BPS) who works with adolescents and adults of all backgrounds, cultures, genders and sexual orientations from an integrative/humanistic approach. I align my therapy work with the goals, wishes and needs of the clients I work with.

I'm a qualified and experienced Psychosynthesis therapist registered with the BACP, offering short and long term counselling and psychotherapy to adults, as well as plant medicine preparation and integration sessions. This will be in-person at my healing space in north London and on Zoom. Psychosynthesis is psychodynamic in its roots (ie your current problems and behaviour patterns are related to childhood) but takes a humanistic approach ie we look for the potential for self growth in your life challenges and suffering, instead of just trying to fix the problem.

I believe therapy is transformative. I provide a holding and supportive space where all feelings, thoughts and experiences are welcome. I am an integrative counsellor: I draw on a variety of therapeutic approaches depending on your needs. Exploring integration can also mean where our socio-political-cultural context shapes or meets our inner narratives. I adopt an intersectional perspective that invites GSRD and cross-cultural experiences. I maintain a creative, somatic practice and this can feature in therapy when the talking cure feels limited: where the non-verbal feels prevalent or when a ‘rehearsal for life’ feels useful.

I am great at supporting people to grow to be the best, most fully functioning version of themselves. The barrier to this is unique to you. You may have a difficult past, problems in the present or fear about the future. I know you'll need to feel safe to speak about deep feelings and it can take time for this trust to develop. It will help if you are willing to be kind to yourself and to work with me to find a way to say the things that feel most difficult or scary. It can be useful to try to be curious about yourself, to notice and name thoughts and feelings as they arise, I will listen without judgment.

There are times in our life when we can feel sad, anxious, overwhelmed or unfufilled. Therapy can provide support through challenging times, or a space for exploration of patterns that cause us to feel stuck and unhappy. I offer a warm, open and non judgemental space where we can explore your unique needs together at your own pace.

As a person-centred counsellor based in north London, I believe that talking can help us feel less isolated with our problems and thoughts.    Sometimes it’s difficult to talk to family and friends; you may not wish to cause worry or distress or you may not want their advice and opinion. I provide an understanding ,  non-judgemental and safe space where you will be heard and where you can bring issues and concerns that may be preventing you from being who you want to be and where you want to be in your life. I offer an initial assessment, which will enable us to see if we connect and whether you feel comfortable within the counsel

My main approach is to encourage you to explore your feelings and take responsibility for your thoughts and actions. As I work in a way that empowers the client, I always work with what you present. Bottled up feelings such as anger, anxiety, grief, jealousy, sadness, shame and pain can become very overwhelming.The opportunity to express them can make it much easier to understand yourself and others. As I acknowledge your feelings and respect you as a person in your own right, you gain self-respect and a sense of being valued. This leads to building trust between counsellor and client, which is an essential part of the process.

Hey, I’m Farkhunda and I am a qualified and registered Person-Centred counsellor. Having been a client myself, I am familiar with the processes of seeking therapy and how difficult it can be. At Brain Fog Therapy, I aim to make the process as easy as it can be for you to reduce the unnecessary stress that can often come with finding a therapist.

I am an experienced Psychodynamic Counsellor, who has worked in a range of settings and sectors, with a wide range of clients. My way of working involves helping clients to gain increased understanding of the way events in the past continue to influence present circumstances. A specialist in transcultural and inclusive therapy, clients see me for a range of reasons: including: anxiety, depression, feeling overwhelmed / stuck / confused or being out of sorts for no particular reason. I offer open ended therapy (where the client decides when they are ready to leave counselling) and fixed term sessions according to client need.

It's challenging to have a human experience because of the social conditioning. Also, it's fascinating to be a human because the more you know about yourself, the better choices you can make & the more you can appreciate life. As per conditioning, we think that ther're “good” and “bad” feeling but once we educate ourselves on the emotional level, we realise that somatic sensations, emotions & feelings are important messengers acting as an internal compass. If you decide to work with me, I promise to show or remind you how to use the internal impulses to your benefit & for a much wholesome life.

Life brings challenges to all of us from time to time and we might feel loss or overwhelmed by them. I offer a safe and confidential space to address and explore these issues. I am open to work with variety issues such as depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, addiction, finding meaning in life, low self esteem. My aim is not advising you, but to help you to find your own path and to look at yourself and your own issues with more compassion and understanding.

If you’re suffering from anxiety, depression or stress, if you’re feeling stuck, or if you’re facing a big change in your life, it can help to talk to someone independent and outside of family and friendship groups. I’m Alison, a psychodynamic counsellor based in Waltham Forest in East London. I work with individuals on an open-ended or short-term basis.

People seek psychotherapy for many different reasons. Sometimes things can feel overwhelming and you don’t feel like you can cope. Some look for support through difficult experiences in life, both past and present; some want to gain a better understanding of their recurrent patterns. If these are familiar with how you have been feeling, I'm here to support you to find out your difficulties and resolve them with you. I believe my relationship with you in the therapeutic process is important for change and transformation. I am compassionate about helping people to find their own ways and treating a variety of clients for many years.

I am a compassionate and open-minded counselor who will always accept you for who you are, and provide you with a safe, confidential, and non-judgmental space. During our sessions together, we will find ways to explore any problems which may be affecting your life. We will work together to gain a deeper understanding of any challenging negative patterns which you may be experiencing. I will also support you by helping you to think about yourself, so that you can make sense of your feelings and understand yourself better.

I have an integrative approach, which means I draw on different styles of therapy and respond to your personal process. That can look like creating change when something feels amiss; uncovering what is underneath when you are feeling stuck or locked into repetitive patterns; exploration and reflection for when you are feeling confused or want to make sense of your experiences; and working with possibilities and finding new motivation, for when you want to focus on growth and strengths. I like to equip you with agency over your own development and share context as to how therapy works.

I work with people of all ages and backgrounds, at different stages of their lives and with different things that they would like to address. Sometimes people come with something specific such as anxiety or a bereavement, following a relationship breakdown or with obsessive compulsive symptoms. Sometimes people come because they are dissatisfied with work, or relationships; friendships, family or intimate relationships. And sometimes people come because they feel stuck or out of sorts, like they want things to be different and they're not sure how, but they want change somehow. Individuals and couples.
