Counselling in SW10
I see individuals and couples with a variety of needs, ranging from deep psychological and emotional difficulties to a wish to optimize inner resources, life competencies and wellbeing. Distress may arise in response to specific life events, or more generally from difficulties in our private or professional lives. Therapy offers opportunities to be fully heard, to identify obstacles in the way of healing and growth, to generate insights and to develop new life skills. I approach my work with sensitivity to the uniqueness of each individual, and tailor my interventions to best meet their therapeutic goals and sustain positive change.

I don’t hold a fixed idea of an “ideal client,” and I welcome people from diverse backgrounds and with varied experiences. There is no right way to come to therapy. Come just as you are, and I will meet you there. Your freedom to be matters to me.

Currently accepting new clients / My practice centers on all facets of relationships and sense of self: supporting you through feelings of loneliness and isolation, guiding past infidelity or jealousy, and addressing deeper issues like attachment styles, narcissism in family or work settings, self-esteem challenges and existential dilemma. We can also explore psychosexual matters, such as intimacy blocks or lack of desire, to help you reclaim fulfilling connections. While my expertise shines here, I also support clients with anxiety and depression that often intersect with these relational themes.

Do you ever feel that a part of you wants to speak your truth, while another holds back out of fear of conflict or judgement? One part of you wants closeness and connection in relationships, but another part pulls away the moment things start to get real? Or a part wants change, but another clings to what's familiar, even when it no longer serves you. Very often these parts live in disagreement with one another, and disconnected from you, living their own lives and speak louder than you do. This can make you feel as if you're pulled apart causing anxiety, internal conflict, keeping you stuck in the same cycle, hopeless and lonely.

Hello! I’m Tilly – a qualified and accredited psychotherapist, who is captivated by human emotion and behaviour!
In my sessions, I strongly believe in not only revisiting the past (which can be very painful) but also the importance of focusing on the present state and also hopes for the future. I feel passionate about incorporating all three elements of time and feel that this gives a more holistic framework to the therapy. I am an Integrative psychotherapist and also pay particular attention to the connection between mind and body. I believe our bodies tell us alot and that we should listen!

We're all shaped by our experiences. Relationships, pressures, successes and failures, childhood - everything that contributes to how you navigate life. From these experiences you construct behavioural and relational patterns - often self-protective and perhaps they have served you well. Or not. Perhaps you have had to cope with trauma. In therapy we look at your unique patterns, exploring where they serve you, where they are in the way or holding you back. We make room for you to emerge from behind these patterns and to express yourself.

Sometimes life looks fine from the outside and feels very different from the inside. You may be anxious, exhausted, self-critical or stuck in patterns you cannot seem to change. Perhaps relationships have become a source of insecurity, jealousy or fear of loss. Or you may know that difficult experiences from the past are still affecting how you feel, relate to others or experience yourself. I work with anxiety, stress and burnout, low self-esteem, perfectionism, relationship difficulties, trauma and the sense that something is wrong even when it is hard to name. I offer online and in person therapy in W1F, N1 and SE1 in London.

I work with thoughtful adults, young people and parents who may be holding things together outwardly, while feeling anxious, unsettled or stuck. Clients often come to me after difficult or traumatic experiences, during significant life transitions, or when patterns in relationships, self-criticism, mood or identity feel hard to understand alone. As a Clinical Psychologist, I offer more than a listening space: I bring specialist psychological assessment, formulation and evidence-based therapy to help you understand what has shaped these difficulties, what keeps them going and how to move forward with greater clarity and con

During these difficult times of coronavirus and lockdown, I am offering sessions via the phone, Skype, and FaceTime. They are accepted methods also within the NHS, where I originally learnt to work with them. I am an integrative counsellor/psychotherapist having worked extensively in the NHS but now work privately. My background in the NHS has made me comfortable working within a multicultural context (LGBT and BME) with a very wide age group of clients (18 -90). I have also studied Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and can offer this separately.

You might seem to cope on the outside, but inside feel overwhelmed, anxious, or weighed down by self-doubt. Perhaps you’re stuck in repeating patterns in relationships, work, or the way you speak to yourself, and you’re unsure how to change them. You may be struggling with low mood, anxiety, self-esteem, relationship difficulties, or feeling lost about your next steps.
You want space to reflect, feel understood without judgement, and make sense of what’s happening. You may be seeking clarity, emotional steadiness, and a way to reconnect with yourself so you can move forward feeling more grounded and confident.

You may be feeling anxious, overwhelmed or stuck, struggling in your relationships, navigating a life transition, or questioning who you are and what you want next. Perhaps life looks successful on the outside, yet something feels missing, unfulfilling or difficult to understand. Together, we can explore what lies beneath these feelings, recognise patterns that may be holding you back, and develop a deeper understanding of yourself and your relationships. I offer a warm, collaborative space where you can feel heard, supported and thoughtfully challenged, opening up new perspectives and possibilities for how you want to live.

You may feel that the way you’ve been living—how you handle stress, your relationships, or your inner world—is no longer working. Perhaps you are facing a specific crisis like a loss or a breakdown, or maybe it’s a quieter sense of being "stuck" in patterns you can't quite break. You might feel disconnected from your emotions or exhausted by the weight of old wounds you’ve tried to push aside. Whatever your "external" life looks like, you are here because you want to move beyond just surviving day-to-day.

Your story doesn’t end here - you get to experience the fullness and richness of life again.
Perhaps you’ve become very good at holding everything together.
Perhaps you find yourself overthinking, people-pleasing, disconnecting from your body, struggling with boundaries or repeating patterns in relationships that leave you exhausted & unfulfilled.
Relational trauma can shape how we see ourselves, how we connect with others and how able we feel to make decisions.
I offer relational and somatic psychotherapy to help you explore these patterns; navigating the depths, moving you out of survival to full body, empowered living.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
Counsellors and Psychotherapists listed in the directory are members of the main professional associations, mainly the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and the UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP). Most Psychologists in the directory are accredited members of the British Psychological Society (BPS) and/or are registered in the Health and Care Professions Council (HPCP).
Providers whose professional membership or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Given that professional memberships are not a statutory requirement for psychotherapists and counsellors in the UK, certain qualified professionals or organisations may choose not to maintain such memberships despite possessing the necessary qualifications. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counsellor?
Counsellors, psychotherapists and psychologists can all provide counselling or talking therapy and have credentials and experience that enable them to do so in the UK. Psychologists have earned a degree in psychology and many are members of the British Psychological Society (BPS) and have completed a postgraduate qualification in a specialism. Counsellors and Psychotherapists are not required to have a psychology degree, but to belong to a professional organisation such as the BACP or UKCP, they are required to have completed a training course as well as clinical and supervision hours.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
How much does therapy cost?
The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, a therapy session in the UK could be between £30 - £60 when seeing a counsellor and £60 - £150 and up when seeing a clinical psychologist. If you have private insurance, your plan may cover some if not all of your sessions. You should contact your insurance provider to determine if they provide coverage for therapy sessions and to determine what, if any, requirements they might have in order for your sessions to be covered, such as a referral from your GP or medical specialist.
What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?
Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.
If you are struggling to access therapy due to budget constraints, you could also consider public funded mental health services. The NHS Talking therapies programme offers free of charge counselling for common mental health problems like anxiety and depression. The service is available to anyone registered with a GP, though you do not necessarily need to be referred by your GP and can refer yourself directly to a Talking therapies service. The service will provide different solutions, including group and individual therapy, for a limited number of sessions which are generally up to six.

Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your postcode.
Are therapy sessions confidential?
Therapists who are part of a professional organisation such as the BACP, the UKCP, or BPS are bound by an ethical framework that requires them to uphold a confidentiality agreement. Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship and only under specific circumstances, such as when there has been participation in a criminal act or act of terror, or if there is potential or known harm to the client or others, will a therapist be obligated to break the agreement. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed during the initial consultation.
