Psychosis Counselling in W1U

Hello! I’m Eleonore. I am a clinical psychologist and I enjoy working with my clients as much today as when I first started out over 10 years ago. The thing I value most in my work is seeing my client’s self-understanding and sense of mastery grow. I work in a compassionate, committed, and concerted way with the main aim of supporting clients to bring about change in their lives. In terms of the specific therapeutic approaches I use, I draw on different evidence-based models and adapt to my clients’ needs; the ultimate goal is for clients to take forward and diversify learnings beyond therapy.

I am an experienced, registered and chartered Counselling Psychologist trained in a variety of psychological models and tailor my approach to suit individual client needs.

I have 15 years of experience and have worked in a variety of settings across the lifespan in both public and private sectors. My roles were not limited to clinical work but also at a management level such as being the Supervisor and Training Manager at an eating disorders facility and head of a disability department at a school. I have extensive experience in different presentations: OCD, eating disorders, depression, anxiety, personality disorders, relationship issues, and psychological assessments. I am recognised by Bupa Global, Aviva and WPA.

As a Chartered Clinical Psychologist I practice ISTDP (Intensive Short- Term Dynamic Psychotherapy), which is a highly effective evidence based 'attachment focused therapy' that rapidly addresses your underlying issues at an emotional level. This allows you to pay closer attention to yourself and your emotions in ‘healthier’ ways, enabling you to experience your emotions to their fullest and allowing a natural healing process to occur. This not only brings symptomatic relief but more importantly it enables you to use your feelings to guide your decision making in all areas of your life, allowing you to blossom and reach your full

I am a chartered psychologist with over 16 years of clinical experience. I treat a wide variety of psychological difficulties ranging from unease and lack of vitality to protracted suffering and diagnosable conditions. I have a particular interest in emotional development disruptions which give rise to disorders of the self, contributing to depression, anxiety, addictions, relationship and sexual difficulties, somatic problems, and personality disorders.

Fully qualified, BACP-registered counsellor and psychotherapist with over 18 years experience of working with individuals, couples and groups. Some people simply feel there is "something wrong" and want a space to explore their thoughts and feelings. I offer a non-judgemental, supportive and confidential space that will allow you to explore and gain an understanding of the feelings or situation that is causing you unhappiness.

The aim of therapy is to enable you to enhance your life and to live it more fully. Together we will recognise and explore patterns in yourself and others, what your triggers are and where those patterns may have originated.

Perhaps you’re experiencing difficulties in past relationships. Maybe you lack confidence in social situations or generally finding it hard to cope with low self-esteem. Perhaps you are experiencing work-related stress or generalised anxiety, depression or panic attacks. It might be that you simply found yourself stuck in life and can’t find the way forward. Sometimes stressful life events can be so emotionally overwhelming, that we no longer wish to cope alone. I understand how overwhelming life can be at times.

As we are thrown into the thick of life, it is our response to these circumstances which reveal who we are and where we may want to go. As life is anything but a linear process - we may often stumble or get stuck along the way. We may even describe the stumbling blocks as anxiety, depression, numbness or even shame. Some of our work could involve examining those stumbling blocks and challenging your ideas, choices and reasoning processes. I encourage you to remain open to all aspects and stimulate you to consider ones often overlooked.
