Counselling in SM1

Hello, my name is Margaret. I graduated from MSc in Applied Psychology and MSc in Counselling at City University of Hong Kong. I have worked with clients with different concerns such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, stress at school, abandonment, parent child relationship issues. I am good at dealing with romantic and family relationship , emotional distress such as depression, PTSD, anxiety, eating disorder and childhood trauma. I will tailor made the treatment plan according to your needs. My approach combines different therapeutic orientations such as psychoanalysis, person centered therapy etc.

I have worked within an NHS practice and a secondary school for a number of years. This means that my clients have been adults, teenagers and children of different ages, backgrounds, and faiths. As an integrative counsellor I offer short-term and long-term counselling. I support the restoring of positive mental health by using a range of traditional models and creative techniques tailored specifically to each individual client's need. Because I appreciate how daunting it can be meeting a stranger, I offer an initial session at £35, so that my client and I can meet and experience a positive start to therapy. Further sessions are £55

We experience new challenges at different times in our lives. Some life events can interrupt our being and trigger sadness, pain and confusion. None of us are protected from painful and traumatic life experiences, however, despite how hopeless it feels, it is important to give yourself a chance to feel better. Psychotherapy is an opportunity to look at your life and develop a better understanding of your inner world and find new, healthier ways to cope with everyday challenges and of course painful past experiences and traumas.

I am a Counselling psychologist with over 10 years’ experience. I have a strong belief in the healing nature of the therapeutic relationship and I aim to offer a relationship characterised by warmth and strength, considering your unique life experiences, culture, personality and needs. We would work collaboratively to empower you to reduce your distress and improve your confidence, coping and resilience. Whether you have a diagnosis, are trying to make sense of how you are feeling, or want to talk about specific issues, I believe I am in a good position to help.

Do you feel stressed or worried or perhaps stuck in some way and need someone to talk to? Life can get especially hard when you are struggling but keep going, pretending to the world that you’re ok but finding things difficult or overwhelming inside of yourself. Talking therapy offers a way out of this and my role is to facilitate a safe, supportive and confidential space where you can begin to address problem areas in your life. I work with a wide range of mental health difficulties including depression, anxiety, relationship conflict and difficulties, low self-esteem, stress, burnout and bereavement.

I'm an integrative psychotherapist offering short and long-term counselling and psychotherapy. I specialise in areas of loss, bereavement, illness and trauma, The area of my expertise is working with trauma, including bereavement, complex trauma, loss and relationship/family issues.  Integrative psychotherapy means that I can offer specific treatments or interventions in the context of what is needed and most appropriate. I have extensive training and experience to accommodate your unique individual needs using a holistic approach.  I am also qualified to provide therapy using EMDR and Brainspotting.

If you feel overwhelmed by what life is throwing at you - especially at the moment, and are finding it difficult to cope, perhaps your inner critic is giving you negative thoughts or the voice on your shoulder is telling you that you are not good enough it may help to talk to someone who is impartial and unbiased. I am here to listen and offer you a confidential, caring and empathic space to gain awareness of your issues.

First and foremost I aim to sit with you as another human being, with an open mind and a gentle approach from which we can think together about what has led you to seek a counsellor. From this starting point I can then use my experience and skills to help you make sense of what may be troubling you.

Are you looking for a safe space to explore sensitive issues? Are you struggling with depression, anxiety, panic attacks or the effects of past trauma? Or perhaps you find it hard to open up and talk about yourself. I am a friendly, qualified and experienced counsellor who is passionate about helping people who have never had counselling before or who find it difficult to talk. I provide a confidential, non-judgemental space to explore both past and present issues. I offer one to one counselling for adults either face to face or over the telephone.

Welcome to my counselling and psychotherapy private practice. I work in 2 practices - Wallington and Eastbourne surrey. Online, around the UK and internationally. www.zoomcounsellor.com www.integrativecounsellor.com

As a psychodynamic therapist I offer once weekly face-to-face therapy in a supportive, understanding environment. My approach encourages self-reflection and self-examination, allowing you to understand the influence of the past on present behaviour and feelings. This enables you to examine unresolved conflicts and their consequences, giving you back more control in daily life. Working within the ethical framework of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists, I provide confidential and non-judgemental counselling to individuals looking for short term and open ended therapy on a variety of issues, offering you space to take a positive step towards insight and awareness.

I am a Specialist Clinical Psychologist offering a therapy space to explore, build psychological tools and make sense of difficult experiences. My therapeutic style acknowledges that your mind, body, spirit, and community are connected. I invite you to bring all aspects of your identity that are important to you; whether it's your ethnicity, faith, cultural beliefs - all these areas can shape how we uniquely experience a range of mental health difficulties. I specialise in anxiety, burnout and stress management, adjusting to health diagnosis, lack of confidence, racial trauma, low mood or impostor syndrome.

Are you a parent who is worried about their teenager? Are you struggling to communicate with one another whilst finding it hard to understand each other? Does your young person suffer with anxiety or persistent low moods? Maybe they are struggling academically and/or refusing to go to school? Would you benefit from having an open and honest conversation with your young person in a safe and familiar environment? Young people want to be heard. They want to be respected and treated as adults.

When the present is painful and the way forward uncertain, we may need to be heard and supported in order to see what is happening for us and around us, so that we can find greater understanding and joy in our lives . I am a fully qualified Psychotherapist and an Accredited Member of the BACP and of EMDR Europe with 17 years experience. I have been working successfully with a great variety of issues, working in Private Practice, in the NHS, as well as with Sutton Counselling and Goldsmiths University. I work with Adults, older teenagers, ​and couples.

I have helped many clients recover from anxiety disorders, depression and self-esteem issues. I have helped clients work on relationship issues so that they are able to live in harmony with others. Most of the issues faced derive from fear, guilt, shame, envy etc. We will work together with your presenting issues and we will also journey into your past to see if we can get to the root of why you feel the way you do and together we will work through any triggers so that your life becomes more manageable. There is nothing more enlightening than self discovery and becoming a more confident version of yourself is extremely empowering.

I offer F2F & Online client-led sessions to individuals of different ethnicity, race, gender, colour & ages (Adults, Couples, Families & Students). I am Accredited with the BACP & NCPS, have 20 years experience & also offer Clinical Supervision to Counsellors & healthcare professionals. I am particularly interested in working with Clients who have experienced trauma & relational difficulties in their childhood due to their heritage & sexuality.

Do you feel you are stuck, anxious or overwhelmed? Perhaps you're struggling with adapting to an empty nest, experiencing conflict at work or dealing with ageing parents. I understand how crippling these feelings and anxieties can be. Reaching out for help can be hard, but you're in the right place.

You may have had experience of counselling or therapy , or none at all. Sometimes it is hard to make the first step into talking therapy. You may be feeling that it could be helpful to have some time to talk about what is going on in your life, about feelings of loss, unhappiness, anxiety or maybe that things are just not 'right'. Feelings of loneliness and isolation are particularly difficult at this time. Working with the right counsellor can help to work through issues from the past , present day problems or looking towards the future and what you may want to change in your life.

Are you stressed, feeling low or struggling with decisions at the moment? I can help you to talk things through at your own pace, and we can work together on ways to change aspects of your life and the way that you feel about them. I can help you to discuss areas of uncertainty and frustration in a warm, supportive and non-judgmental atmosphere. Some people prefer to talk mainly about difficulties in the present. Others welcome the opportunity to look back to earlier times and understand where emotions like anger, sadness and self-doubt first came from. This can make these problems much easier to deal with in the present.
