Counselling in SW4

I am a UKCP Registered Psychotherapist and a member of the BACP with over a decade of experience working in mental health and well-being. I offer you a safe and non-judgmental space to explore the mental blocks or emotional problems that are keeping you stuck or affecting your ability to meet your potential. I work with warmth and connection to help you attain insight into your personal issues and gain the inability to move forward. As an integrative psychotherapist, I am trained in a range of different therapeutic techniques. My approach to therapy is relational and informed by each client's individual needs.

I wonder what is worrying you and causing your suffering? What is keeping you stuck? Our past influences our present, and by exploring the past, we can often start to understand our present day struggles including that of anxiety, shame, anger, depression or feelings of helplessness, in a different more helpful way. We are all born with inherent wellness, but this is ‘clouded’ or obscured by our learned patterns of behaviour. Being Mindful/ Aware of our own ‘stuff' helps us work through and process the experiences that are affecting us. This process can help us to heal our suffering, re-engage in and transform our lives. ​

Coming to see a counsellor can be a daunting experience. You may feel anxious, embarrassed or scared, however, it can be a relief to be able to talk to someone who doesn’t have a stake in your life. I'll give you the space and time you deserve to finally get to know yourself, find acceptance and experience the change. I'll help you to find a new perspective of looking at things, clear the fog and find clarity and hope; recognise unhelpful patterns in your thinking and behaviour and identify other, more helpful ones; recognise difficult feelings and find ways to live with them; find a way to release feelings of stuckness and move on.

Hello. My name is Nadia. Do you feel constantly stressed, sad or anxious? Do you perhaps feel a bit like an imposter? It can be hard to ask for help while pretending everything is fine. Would you like to identify and draw on your inner resources and resilience to live a fuller, more satisfying life? By working together in an open and trustful relationship, you can grow, and connect to what really matters to you.

Do you have anxiety, or feel lost your sense of direction, feeling frustrated, sad, angry, guilty, shame, scared, or any other emotion? Would you like to explore options, make choices, move towards understanding who you are and what you want? Are you struggling with issues around confidence, procrastination, depression, anxiety, anger, guilt or any other difficulties? Do you struggle to understand? Why counseling therapy? If you are at a crossroads in your life, therapy is a place to explore your options in a safe and contained environment. Sometimes there's no 'win-win', so we must chose, albeit with regret. I offer free session.

It's entirely reasonable for us all, at some point, to be anxious and confused by life, challenged by relationships, family life and or the direction of our career. Life can be difficult, there's no denying that, you just don't have to suffer in silence. Really, the only qualification in seeking therapy is to be a normal human being. I could go on 'selling' the benefits, but ultimately I assure you, if you try, things will change, and quite possibly for the better.
