Online Counselling for W1U

I have 15 years of experience and have worked in a variety of settings across the lifespan in both public and private sectors. My roles were not limited to clinical work but also at a management level such as being the Supervisor and Training Manager at an eating disorders facility and head of a disability department at a school. I have extensive experience in different presentations: OCD, eating disorders, depression, anxiety, personality disorders, relationship issues, and psychological assessments. I am recognised by Bupa Global, Aviva and WPA.

I am a Clinical Psychologist with over 14 years of experience, specialiaing in providing compassionate and down-to-earth therapy. As a bookworm, rock-climber, and cat-Dad, I understand the importance of connecting on a personal level. Therapy with me is a journey focused on compassion, resilience, and understanding. I believe that your story is central, and together, we can navigate through challenges or nurture the positives in your life. I work with a wide range of clients and have expertise in stress, sadness, worry, couples work, sexuality, and gender diversity, I offer a tailored approach to suit your unique needs.

My clients choose to see me to help them address specific issues or to explore their thoughts and feelings in particular moments in their lives. Whatever the reason I offer them a confidential space where they can allow themselves to open up as much as they are comfortable with. Often issues are linked to self-esteem, self-worth and the difficulty to fully accept oneself. Clients are often able to become more confident in themselves and in relationships as they learn how to be more compassionate and kind to themselves. Therapy can help clients become happier, more fulfilled and successful in their life journey.

The fact that we are alive, proves we are resilient and creative enough in our attempts to face life’s challenges. At times our experience may become overwhelming or too painful to adapt to, or the adaptation may come with great consequences. The long-term effects of this may lead to anxiety, low mood or lack of confidence. When stress keeps us in its grip for too long, some health problems or physical pain / psychosomatic symptoms may develop as a consequence. You may be feeling that you cannot live fully or express yourself, as if there was a block or a barrier between you and life, you and others, or you and your core self.

Why are you here? Perhaps you are feeling overwhelmed, anxious or sad. You may need help to cope with a crisis or relationship issue. Perhaps you are struggling with depression, anxiety or a lack of confidence and self-belief. You may be coming to terms with the devastating effects of being a survivor of sexual, physical or psychological abuse. Sometimes we need to talk to a Professional. I am a Psychotherapist and Sex & Relationship Therapist and a registered member of both the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP) and The College of Sex and Relationship Therapists (RegCOSRT).

Hello there! We hear that you are looking for a suitable therapist…someone with compassion, understanding, experience, and insight into the difficulties that you may be looking to overcome. Therapy is personal, and all of our needs are different. This is why our practice offers a range of approaches to therapy; low-fee, short-term/long-term therapy, online/in-person therapy, and psychology assessments we can help! Our practitioners are trained in multiple modalities, including CBT, EMDR, trauma-informed, psychodynamic therapy, ADHD/ ASC assessments etc. Please note: not all of our therapists are registered with insurance providers.

As a psycho-dynamic practitioner, I see my role first as to provide you with a safe and confidential space in which explore whatever issues you may be experiencing. At unpacking what seem to be the problem, I would listen up to the symptoms but my interest would be on the collaborative understanding of the underlying cause. Exploring and understanding this, would be the body of the work. And it is that, what brings change, and a change that is lasting because will be located not in the symptom but on what caused it in the first place.

I am an experienced counsellor and psychotherapist. I work with adults and adolescents, across a wide range of issues. My approach focuses primarily on enabling you to understand what brought you where you are today, and where you want to be. With this understanding, we develop solutions for you to get there. Each client is unique, and I use a blend of approaches to meet your specific needs. I am an integrative counsellor, and have also trained in CBT techniques. I work with people dealing with anxiety and depression, facing challenges with their relationships, or looking to improve their ability to tackle personal challenges.
