Counselling in SE12

Hello, my name is Matthew and my pronouns are He/Him. I understand that making a decision to find a therapist can be difficult and then starting a search for one can feel overwhelming. Having been a client myself, and after extensive training, the overriding important factor has always been the strength of the relationship between therapist and client. This first step can feel scary, but I want to reassure you we go at your pace, exploring what you choose, in a supportive and collaborative way.

Individuals and couples who want to change and improve their communication skills.This includes relationships within family ,work and friendship groups.

I am an Integrative Therapeutic Counsellor, which means I work with current issues and the past as well as offering Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help with ongoing issues. I offer affordable short and long-term counselling in a safe, confidential, non-judgemental environment where you can talk and feel heard. I specialise in generalised anxiety, panic attacks, depression, bereavement, alcohol addiction issues, trauma, low self esteem, anger management, issues of loneliness and isolation, ongoing family difficulties. I currently support clients via zoom but usually work as a face to face counsellor.

If you find yourself struggling with feelings and you’re not sure why, being able to talk to someone confidentially and without judgement may help.

I'm a registered counsellor/psychotherapist with the BACP, currently working part-time within the NHS as a Trainee Counselling Psychologist. I am also in my final year of a Professional Doctorate in Counselling Psychology at the University of East London. If you’re browsing this directory, chances are you’re considering therapy, yet perhaps you aren’t too sure what exactly you’re looking for/how I might be able to help? As an experienced practitioner, I have come to adopt an eclectic approach to therapy, preferring to adapt to the unique needs of my client; presenting problem, treatment goals, expectations and motivation.

My name is Sally Spigner and I am a BACP registered counsellor working from a relaxing office between Bromley and Grove Park. I am passionate about helping clients make changes in life, from teenagers with social anxiety, to executives suffering with burnout. If your life needs to change, and the change has to come now, come along and have a chat. Counselling can help when you have issues which you prefer not to talk about with family and friends, or indeed when they might be part of the problem. There is no need for you to face your problems alone.

Hello, my name is Michelle, As a counsellor and psychotherapist, I am all too aware of just how daunting taking that initial step towards counselling can be. The mere fact that you are reading this now means you are just a phone call away from putting that right. While we sometimes turn to a friend or family member in our hour of need, it is when the problem lies with our nearest and dearest that we should consult with a professional.

Relationships can bring a lot of satisfaction to our lives but they can also bring stress, frustration, confusion and heartbreak. Whether the problems are with family, partners, friends, colleagues or perhaps you don't like yourself very much, understanding how you relate to others can free you from repeating patterns and open up new perspectives and choices.

If you are considering how therapy can support you through challenging life events, I can support you by offering a safe and confidential space in which you can begin to examine what may feel impossible right now to resolve by yourself; without fear of being judged and experience, perhaps for the first time, a real feeling of being heard. I work by helping you to explore your thoughts, emotions and life story so far, with the aim of both of us understanding & together making sense of the difficulties you are experiencing. Together, we will then seek a way of moving forward positively.

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!
