Person-Centred Counselling in Walworth, London

I'm a counsellor who brings calm and peacefulness into the chaotic and hectic situations of modern times. I am able to maintain the calm and serenity required when dealing with issues and experiences that could bring painful feelings and overwhelming emotions. I use a Person-Centred approach to counselling. I believe that everyone has the innate ability to resolve their psycho-emotional issues and decide on the best direction to take in order to live a happy and fulfilling life. I can create the right environment so that each individual can explore the best way to achieve this for themselves.

Life can be accompanied with stress and difficulties that can often leave you struggling to cope daily. Counselling provides support to people, allowing them to share these experiences in a comfortable, safe space in order to gain understanding and live a more fulfilled life.

Hello, My name's Julia. I am a person centred therapist; couselling psychologist, couple’s counsellor and trauma specialist. I trained at the University of East Anglia in 2000 and have worked as a therapist, trainer and supervisor in the UK and overseas. I re-trained at the University of Leiden as a psychologist. For 15 years I was in private practice in the Netherlands and also worked on for a number of international organisations supporting victims of war crimes. Since returning to the UK I have been working as a couple’s couples counsellor with the relationship specialists Relate; at a rape crisis centre and in private practice.

I offer an exclusive service of 3 sessions where I use my experience, knowledge and intuition to accurately identify your areas of struggle, the root cause reasons for them and what specifically to practice to move forward in your journey of self discovery, healing and purpose. Much of what we go through is part of a few dominant themes that we are working with in our lives. I help you connect the dots. I have practiced for 10 years as an Integrative (Holistic) Psychotherapist, studied humans through Psychology for 19 years and currently practice my skill of Intuitive channeling. I combine creativity, education and intuition

The world can be frustrating when you get tangled up in unhealthy thinking patterns. You can feel lost, or overwhelmed, with moments of real darkness. That is where I can help. If you lose control of your anger or your anxiety holds you back, we can unpack what makes you tick. If you hide your emotions in harmful behaviour, we can uncover them. What I enjoy most is helping people to build healthy relationships with themselves and others. I used to this when working with the Prince's Trust and Mind, the leading UK mental health agency. This gave me insight into those dealing with addiction, anxiety and depression.

I'm an experienced integrative counsellor specialised in all addictions, depression, anxiety relationships and bereavement with 30 years' experience in alcohol and drug addiction. I work with clients with a variety of different issues including psychosexual anxiety,domestic abuse, relationships loss and bereavements. I'm honoured to share the journey with my client. You choose your own goals and then we collaborate to achieve them. This journey starts with a desire to change. It is an opportunity to build healthy relationships and focuses on bringing change,hope,direction as well as purpose and fulfilment into your life.

I believe in a respectful, collaborative relationship which focuses on your individual history, context, personality and life situation in the here-and-now. Through empathic listening, I aim to enable us to explore your patterns and concerns at a safe pace, and in depth. Our thoughtful dialogue can help you build a more compassionate and insightful understanding, appreciation and acceptance of yourself. We will explore ways to enable you to connect with your feelings, wishes, needs and voice, and to build on strategies for managing your life in ways that feel more empowered, authentic, creative and meaningful.

Hello, my name’s Michelle and I am a Chartered Psychologist and Integrative Psychotherapist. My experience ranges from various issues such as bereavement/grief, trauma, domestic abuse, postnatal depression, homelessness, personality disorders, mental/physical health problems, issues with alcohol, substances as work difficulties. Together, we can make meaning of personal loss, help you to better cope with the difficulties you are facing, address any work challenges you are experiencing, or have healthier relationships.

Hello, I'm Rachael. There could be many reasons why you’re looking for therapy. It could be due to a particular issue that feels clear to you or a number of issues that are troubling or causing distress; perhaps you’re experiencing a general sense of discontent or unease that’s more difficult to describe. Whatever brings you, I aspire to provide a consistent and safe environment where we can explore what’s most relevant for you and at your pace. If you would like to talk further about sessions, please feel free to contact me. Following that, we can arrange an initial session to discuss how you would like to use our time together.

A counselling environment with a warm and empathic space conducive to unravel what is troubling you, be it feeling stuck, low mood, stressed out, grieving or abused, is offered on a weekly basis. Sessions are client-led, which means that we will work at your own pace. Feeling heard and validated can help you find your voice, gain insight and make decisions that feel right for you.

Feeling stuck? The causes can be many: relationship issues, redundancy, bored in the job or even things sometimes termed as “mental illness.” I use that last term carefully because though it can help define the symptoms, if often fails to get at the human story beneath which is always there and needs addressing as well as any medical issues. In my sessions my aim is to help you past what eve holds you back into a better life- whatever that means to you.

We all have a story that needs to be told, and I want to give you the gift of therapy that will equip you and move you towards being your most authentic self, whatever that looks like for you. As an Integrative Counsellor, my work considers your whole story in context, the historical value of experiences and the present-day application. The individuals I work with come from various backgrounds, so I work with a culturally sensitive and accommodating trauma-informed approach. They want to work on relational difficulties, sexual addictions, shame, unprocessed loss, transitioning to adulthood, and midlife crisis.

If you are someone who is finding your journey through life difficult. I provide a safe place for you to speak and get support on this journey. Someone to actively listen and give you the time you don’t always get weekly in life. Everyone walks a different path in life and lead's their individual lives. No matter what path you have taken it can provide it's own obstacles, burdens and difficulties. It can become overwhelming and challenging, and seeking support can be the first step to working through these difficult aspects in life.

I am a fully qualified and experienced UKCP accredited and BACP registered psychotherapy and counselling practitioner in individual therapy with extensive knowledge working with adults experiencing mental health difficulties, depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and crises. For over ten years I managed a welfare service for NHS and for Mind in Hackney running projects for Community Mental Health Team and clients who used psychiatric services. Part of my role was also to train social work students as a practice educator. For the last 9 years I have worked in private practice.

We believe that everyone is unique and therefore is dealt with in a way that best caters to his or her individual needs. We work with you by exploring your world to see how you engage with your life and the people around you. Along the journey, we will explore your past, look at your present and see how you perceive the future. We will help you become more aware of your values, beliefs and limitations and help you connect and improve your relationship with yourself. This process may be challenging, yet extremely rewarding as we access the changes you want to make towards living the life that you want to live.

Hi. I’m Mirek. Some people seek help because they experience a variety of emotional challenges (e.g. depression, anxiety, addictive tendencies, issues within relationships, unhelpful patterns of relating, and they want to feel better. Counselling and psychotherapy can help with it, but most importantly it can help with changing internal landscapes so that we then better understand how we function and have an idea where our troubles come from. Knowing that it is then easier to manage ourselves with anything that live throws at us. There is nothing better than a sense of freedom from old unhealthy patterns of relating!

​Are your past difficulties or traumatic experiences holding you back from fully embracing the present? If you’re an adult looking for a safe and accepting place to work through childhood/adolescent trauma, domestic/sexual abuse or other challenges, do get in touch. I offer weekly face to face and online therapy sessions. The practice is located in Bermondsey, South London.

Being able to share what is going on for you with someone who knows how to listen can bring enormous relief. Together we can explore what has brought you here and uncover the way back to feeling better and brighter about your life.

My previous career as a scriptwriter has led me to be particularly attended to clients' narratives. Each individual has their unique story to tell. Each contains elements of significant people,conflicts, struggles and resources. It may impact the way we see ourselves, others and the world. By engaging in the process of therapy, we may open up new possibilities and to rewrite our stories.
