Counselling in SW5
I am a qualified, accredited, Humanistic counsellor. Humanistic Counselling takes a holistic approach, focusing on the uniqueness of an individual. It aims to explore a person’s whole life experience, combining the past, present, and future. I am a registered member of the National Counselling Society (NCS), abiding by their ethical framework. I am also undertaking a part time master’s degree at Regents University which focuses on psychoanalysis, integrative and existential therapy, contributing to my professional development. Having a wide knowledge of differing approaches allows me to adapt, to suit the unique needs of each client

Life can get difficult and overwhelming at times and we may need support to find clarity, emotional fulfilment and happiness. My services aim to help people who are going through a difficult time in their lives or who simply want to understand themselves better. Whether you are feeling sad, going through a significant separation or bereavement, experiencing difficulties in relationships, feel anxious and overwhelmed, you would like to explore or there is anything that is bothering you, I can offer an accepting and warm space to talk through these issues.

We could all do with help sometimes. I get it. Our world is imperfect and challenging and there is no way to know what life throws next. You may have experienced a loss or trauma and others around you cannot grasp its magnitude. Or you may have resorted to ways of coping that harm you and cannot break free. Or perhaps you are tired of recurrent disappointments, rejections, criticism that have affected how you feel within yourself and your relationships. Forming a genuine connection with each other in therapy will hopefully make it possible for you to work toward changes or make what you cannot change easier to bear.

I imagine that you have found yourself on my profile from getting to a place where you've said 'I need a therapist'. You may also have recognized other parts of your life experience that require the attention of a professional. I am Sade and I aim to support you with those emotional, psychological and life's difficulties. I also realize that not everyone has a main 'problem' as such. We sometimes simply want to understand ourselves better, figure out how we end up in the situations we keep finding ourselves and explore our feelings discreetly without judgement. Whatever your reason for seeking therapy at this time, I welcome you.

Modern life in a big city like London can be exciting but also unsettling at times. It is easy to sometimes feel overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, alone and at loss of where to start. Therapy can help in times of uncertainty. By exploring your thoughts and feelings from both past and present, links can be made to increase your understanding and thereby helping you moving forward. Increased self knowledge and insight can be crucial in forming close and authentic relationships with others, often bringing higher self esteem as a result. Therapy can be a good support and give you hope when you are going through a difficult time.

Perhaps you find life overwhelming or maybe you are struggling with a sudden crisis? Do you feel down and is it affecting your quality of life, your relationships with family and friends? Maybe you are trying really hard to accept life as is, or no matter how hard you try to make changes, time and again you meet similar situations, recognisable patterns that seem to be repeating themselves?
