Counselling in W1G

Life is difficult. Do more, be more. Be what others want. I offer a space where we examine where you are in life, what's brought you here, what it's like being you and you in relation to others, and how you're contributing to where you're at. How will we do this? Through our relationship, where I'll offer support, care, empathy and challenge to help you examine life.

I help people overcome feelings of low mood, low energy, lack of motivation, and overwhelm so they can have better relationships with others, a more positive outlook on life, and a better understanding of their emotions. I offer a 20-minute free chat. Being human and living in this world can sometimes seem difficult. A lot of the time, we aren't necessarily suffering from a sickness or disorder; rather life is chaotic and confusing and because we aren't born with a guide book, we frequently feel overwhelmed and unable to cope with the situations we find ourselves in.

We all have times when we feel stuck. Perhaps you've become distant from your feelings, or you're in the grip of strong emotions you can’t control. Perhaps you find yourself repeating patterns of behaviour or ways of relating which might be damaging to yourself and others. Or you may feel empty, or purposeless, as if your life has no meaning.

Reaching out can feel daunting - I offer empathy and a safe, supportive, environment in which we can explore issues and identify: your strengths, values, goals, alternative perspectives and potential changes. Many clients present with anxiety, depression, stress or lacking meaning/joy - we can address the issues that may feel overwhelming and disentangle them. We can either work on longer-term deeper changes or employ short-term strategies. Personal histories can impact on people and you have the option to address yours and change your lived experience. I work with diverse clients of all ethnicities/genders/sexualities/body shapes.

Hello, thankyou for looking at my profile. My intention is to develop a therapeutic alliance, a safe space to provide a hearing, a listening. Being with a committed other, every week is a rare and precious gift to yourself. This time will be your time. I am an integrative practitioner which means I bring everything I know, theoretically, intuitively, physically and emotionally, in the service of the other, in the moment. Locating feeling and releasing of emotions, is welcomed, through the body, voice or with artworks. I am committed to giving you and your experiences a full hearing, and so change will occur.

I became a therapist after navigating my own journey with what life had presented me with and the likely hood is I've been somewhere similar to where you are right now and I've come out the other side. Together we can explore what is happening with you and in your life that has left you feeling anxious, depressed, sad, angry, low in self-esteem, empty or distressed. I will not only work with you on how and why you are suffering but also find with you ways to move past your struggles. I am not a therapist that sits back, Im here to sort things out with you.

Janus is a company that specialises in drug and alcohol treatment that steers away from the language of addiction, sickness, illness, dependency and disease. Janus believes that this terminology can become disempowering, at times leaving the client feeling at a loss as to how to move forward. Janus uses it's own unique approach called: The Resonance Factor, that focuses on the relationship someone constructs with their substance/s of choice. Janus believes that in the same way someone can construct a relationship with substances - he or she can deconstruct that relationship. Our service is about creating change in the individual. It is designed for individuals that wish to stop using substances; wish to rebuild relationships; wish to re-engage with life - be it work, study and physical and emotional well-being. Janus will work with you to accomplish your goals, but you, the client, have to be at the forefront of your own treatment.

As a clinical psychotherapist,​ I have over 10 year’s experience of working with patients and clients with many different struggles and difficulties. Trained as an integrative therapist, I work in a unique way that is based on your own individual needs. I believe that everyone is different and not every modality suits everyone. I know only too well how difficult life can be, yet uniquely different, we all suffer pain and loss in many similar ways. I feel truly humbled to work in this field and would be honoured to support you. You are not alone.

Since graduating from Cambridge University in 2000, Jennifer Cox has worked extensively in psychology roles in psychiatric and forensic mental health settings across London. Jennifer completed her counselling and psychotherapy training at the University of London and the Tavistock Clinic, and is a member of the Tavistock Society of Psychotherapists (conferring eligibility for the British Psychoanalytic Council). She is a graduate member of the British Psychological Society (Clinical Psychology division) and has Registered Scientist status with the Science Council. This grounding enables her to offer you a robust therapeutic support.

As an established Counseling Psychologist in London registered with the HCPC (Health and Care Professions Council) I have over 16 years of clinical practice and rigorous NHS training in various psychological therapeutic approaches and modalities. The therapy approach I take is integrative drawing from Person Centred, CBT, and Psychodynamic theories and I have a special interest in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing), ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) and Mindfulness based practices.

I believe that psychotherapy is more of an art form than a science, however, my degree is in social science and as such the theories and concepts used in forensic and social psychology influence my practice.

Do you struggle with anxiety, work stress, low mood, low self-esteem or worry about the future? Does a previous/ recent traumatic experience still negatively impact you? Do you worry about others' criticisms and judgments? Are you disconnected from what matters in life and the people you love? Do you feel that you are not the person you want to be? Whatever challenges you have, therapy can help improve your life. I see adult individuals for a range of difficulties, including anxiety, depression, trauma, phobias, life crisis, work stress, personal development and relationship problems. I offer CBT, ACT, EMDR and other approaches.

The evidence suggests that finding a therapist you feel able to talk to and understood by is key to a successful therapeutic experience. I am a down-to-earth, intelligent and non-judgmental integrative psychotherapist working with a range of issues. Ideally, therapy is a collaborative partnership and my style is active and empowering. I see you as the 'expert' in your life and myself as the 'expert' on therapeutic interventions. Together we focus on utilising your strengths and fostering insight and awareness in a safe and confidential environment. I love my work and look forward to helping you improve your mental health and wellbeing
