Counselling in TW9

Life can feel as though everything is getting too much. Are you low, irritable or anxious? Or is there something you want to talk through? Then therapy may be for you. Being in a confidential, empathic and non-judgemental environment with an experienced trained professional, listening and providing support can help you start to lead a more fulfilling life. Building a trusting relationship with me can support you with trauma, anxiety or relationship issues. Through in-depth exploration we can enable you to understand yourself, yourself with others and gain new insights, awareness and choices.

As a Counselling Psychologist, I use a variety of psychotherapeutic methods that are supported by clinical research. My work focuses on helping people who are experiencing a variety of psychological issues such as anxiety, worry, depression, betrayal trauma or have been subjected to harmful practices such as ‘Honour’ Based Violence and Female Genital Mutilation. I work with clients wanting to begin a journey of healing, rebuild self-esteem, build a self that is independent of their past or space for reflection. I work collaboratively with my clients gaining an insight into their coping responses towards a variety of concerns.

It can be really hard asking for help. It can be even harder to think about your own needs when you’re so used to caring for others. What if we’re seen as a failure for not being able to do it all on our own? It can make us feel stuck, trapped even, behind our own smiles and silence. But I see you and I hear you. Life doesn’t have to feel this way. A lot of my clients find it hard taking up space, who have built their lives on prioritising the needs and feelings of others, leading them struggling to identify let alone ask for what they want.

Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, a stress related illness or having sleep problems? Perhaps you have weight issues or are over eating to cope? Maybe you are consistently bombarded by self doubt, which makes daily life really hard. I can help! I work with clients who feel defeated, have poor eating habits, are generally stressed out or really struggle to find the motivation to make healthy changes. I can help you believe in yourself again, change your negative thinking style and help you develop better coping strategies which last for a lifetime, so you start to feel better and begin to enjoy life once more.

My ideal client is YOU. I am confident that we can work together and establish goals that I will help you achieve. No challenge is too great and no obstacle too large. We can figure out solutions in a caring, supportive environment. Come see what we're all about today.

I work with families, couples and individuals (both adults and children). The focus of my work is to help people to feel more loved, connected, resilient and secure. I help clients to understand their relational patterns and unmet attachment needs that cause distress. Subsequently, we work towards shifting those patterns of hurtful conflict behaviours (e.g. patterns of attack-withdraw and blame-defend) into patterns of love, care and emotional safety. This shift allows all to feel seen, understood and valued. In my work I’m also interested in client’s personal and relational strengths and resources.

Everyone will experience difficulties or distress in their lives or in their relationships at some point. You may be struggling with low self-esteem, low mood, loss of a key relationship, a transition in your life or career, or perhaps deeper-rooted issues from the past that have been triggered by a current event or situation. I work in a warm, supportive and conversational way, with the aim of establishing a strong and trusting relationship with you. I offer a safe, non-judgemental and confidential space where we can explore your experiences, feelings and concerns together.

Mental health difficulties come in many forms and can impact our lives profoundly. Struggles may have been with us for years, even forming part of our identity, or they may have appeared as if from nowhere. Our attempts to cope often draw from the same well that feeds the problem, making it difficult to change things alone. One of the many ways therapy works is by unlocking different thinking, awareness and experience, allowing problems to be truly addressed in a new, meaningful way.

I have over 30 years experience working as a professional in mental health, and ove20 years experience as a psychotherapist and counsellor. I provide either short-term counselling or longer term psychotherapy depending on need. Prior to obtaining a Diploma and MA in Integrative Psychotherapy I worked for 16 years as a social worker, in the field of substance misuse, HIV, homelessness and child protection. I have experience of working within the private sector, voluntary sector and the NHS. I have a private practice in Kew, near Richmond, where I offer counselling, psychotherapy and supervision. There is street parking available.

If you find yourself struggling to manage the particular challenges your life brings, it could be time to switch out of ‘survival mode’ and address how you are feeling in a more deliberate way. I provide a safe and supportive space for you to widen your perspective, strengthen your understanding of whatever difficulties you are facing, and uncover a new way forward.

All of us, at some point in our lives, may experience challenges that could lead to anxiety and depression or ‘stuckness’. These feelings usually stem from not knowing how to communicate needs and emotions or process deeply stressful thoughts and experiences in a way that can bring relief. This is the time to reach out for therapy where you can learn (and unlearn) those behavioural patterns that stop you from becoming the best possible version of yourself. You can develop coping strategies that help you to become a happier and more fulfilled individual now and in the future.

Hi, I’m Olivia. I have nearly 10 years’ experience supporting people with issues including (but not limited to) grief and loss, anxiety, depression, relationship and family issues and sexuality. If you are thinking about starting therapy it is likely that you are going through a difficult time and are feeling a need for some help and support. You may be going through a specific experience, or perhaps you only know that you would like a change and someone to talk to.

I'm a Clinical Psychologist and Supervisor working with Adults and Adolescents. I work with individuals and couples who struggle with anxiety, depression, addiction, anger, self-esteem,​ and relationship issues. Sometimes it is difficult to find the words to describe your emotions or how you are feeling. Please note I am still offering both online and telephone counseling during the COVID situation.

I imagine that if you are suffering or in distress, (which shows up in so many different ways), you might want to feel the connection or relief from talking to someone who can be really present and listen to you in a non-judgemental way.You could need some support in understanding that what happened in the past continues to affect your present experience of yourself, your relationships and how you imagine your future. Your old ways of doing things may seem that they are not working; psychotherapy could provide you with some hope that something good may arise from your struggles and that your struggles are uniquely meaningful.

I offer confidential and creative psychotherapy to individuals and couples. I work worldwide using Zoom, and in-person in London, UK. My clients usually arrive to work through a difficulty – including anxiety and depression, situations with relationships and sex, issues with alcohol or drugs, loss, recent or historic abuse, betrayal, self-esteem, anger, or a sense of being directionless or stuck. I respect the urgency of the situation – the need to find a way through – and the need for that way to be sustainable and authentic to who you are.

As a person-centred therapist I try to understand your reality (how the world works from your point of view) and support you to explore solutions to your problems. This will include increasing your self-awareness, improving your ability to use self-direction to make changes in your life, improving your self-esteem, and self-efficacy. In yoga therapy we focus on the integration of mind and body to enhance mental health. I draw on yogic principles and practices, such as physical yoga postures, meditation, breathing techniques, and relaxation exercises to provide both short and long term regulation for an imbalanced nervous system.
