Dealing with difficult emotions can feel overwhelming and scary. Are you feeling anxious or stressed, or feel like you are trapped in a situation that you see no way out from? Whether it's your relationships, feelings about yourself or the world around you, seeking counselling can be the first steps to empowering yourself to make positive changes in your life. With the world feeling so precarious right now, and our lives being turned upside down, it can feel like the control you once had has now been taken away. Traumatic, upsetting experiences can all lead to adverse mental health.

Hi, I'm Jane, a qualified BACP registered Counsellor who will provide a safe, confidential space for you to explore your worries and concerns. By drawing on a number of approaches, I will offer you an insight into how you may begin to feel more at ease with yourself, your relationships and the choices you have made in the past by looking at the present. It may be that you are feeling anxious and depressed, have low self-esteem, lack motivation and energy or are grieving the loss of a loved one. The simple act of talking about how you are feeling to a therapist may allow you to make sense of your experience and soften your pain.By

Specialist therapy for couples or individuals with relationship issues can help you through those tough and challenging times. Whatever your relationship problems, be they related to life stages or arising from daily life pressures, I am here to help. We can decide on short, medium, or long-term counselling. Together, in a secure, impartial, and non-judgmental space, we can use various approaches tailored to your situation to help guide you towards a positive and successful outcome. Sometimes this is about building solid relationships and sometimes parting with dignity and respect.

It can be an extra challenging period for many different and difficult reasons and talking to a trained counsellor can be so beneficial. I offer a professional counselling service for Teenagers and Adults in Hertfordshire (Radlett), working in person (still continuing to work with Covid-safe measures) and also online/phone sessions. I have a certified therapy dog (Labrador) to assist in sessions if you would like. Working with children and parents in schools for 20 years, I hold an enhanced DBS (Disclosure and Barring Checking Service) Certificate.

Taking that first step, seeking help with difficult feelings, thoughts or experiences takes courage and strength. Offering a non judgemental, compassionate and supportive space I commit to ensuring you have control of the pace and subject matter you bring, and to work with you to find new perspectives, build trust in your own judgement and a stronger sense of self. With experience in hospital, private residential units, charitable organisations and private clients, with adolescents, young adults and adults or varying genders, I work with long and short term clients.

Clients come to me for a myriad of issues, some of the most common themes are life crisis, feeling stuck, loneliness, addictions, feeling lost, anxiety, feeling directionless in life, divorce, and fear of the unknown to name but a few. Clients needs are generally to learn how to 'feel enough' again, gain self confidence, support/reassurance, create some structure and boundaries in their life. Helping clients to create and manifest their desires hopes and dreams moves them closer towards their goals in life. As individuals we need and want to experience feeling held and supported with empathy, to feel lighter, creating freedom.

It may not be visible but you are suffering inside, and you have taken the first courageous step, seeking a therapist. Life may seem OK and up to now you have managed but something inside is stirring, and its hard to carry on as you have been. You have been judged, not heard and felt worthless or invisible, and you may feel anxious, angry, depressed, detached, frightened, vulnerable, low self worth, unmotivated and unable to trust your own judgement right now. I believe you have an innate ability to be more, and can support you to work through these feelings. Take the next brave step if you are ready and call for a consultation.

Sometimes in life you arrive at a point where you know that you need some help. The problems that you are facing are too much for you to overcome on your own. In particular, if you are a young adult, you are confronted with a unique set of challenges that needs someone who understands those challenges and has experience in helping you navigate your way through them. Whether it is bullying, or a feeling that you don't fit in, or whether it is depression and anxiety, stress or relationship problems or problems to do with gender and sexuality, I can offer you a safe place to explore these issues.

Depression, anxiety and grief can really take it out of you - leave you feeling like a shadow of your former self, drain your energy and your self-confidence, and make you feel like you can never feel happy again. I want to use my counselling skills and experience to help you to build yourself back up until you feel like there's nothing you can't manage, no matter what life throws at you.

Hi, my name is Gordon. Welcome! I’m an experienced counsellor based in East London, working both online and in person. I was born and raised in London. Personal therapy helped me to untangle my relationship with myself and my emotions. The world alone is a chaotic place to manage our own unknowns, anxieties, and traumas. I understand that everyone experiences the world in different ways, so unique problems require a bespoke response. Our lives are constantly creating new beginnings, change, and endings, so it’s natural to feel emotions strongly. I help clients explore their life and work to help them build hope and to cope.

What type of mental health professional is right for me?
While most types of therapy have a lot in common, they also fall into clusters that share core features, such as cognitive therapies or psychodynamic approaches. It is important to seek someone who practices evidence-based therapy, meaning one or more forms of treatment that have been scientifically evaluated and tested, and demonstrate consistent improvement for a majority of patients.
If you are unsure about choosing the right therapist, psychologist, or counsellor, it might be useful to first learn more about therapy types and modalities.

How to find a therapist or counsellor in WD7?
When looking to find a therapist, start by considering training and credentials. Studies also indicate that the therapeutic alliance, or the relationship the client develops with the therapist, is an important factor in their ability to work together to achieve the client’s goals.
What method of therapy is right for me?
When it comes to treatment methods, there's no 'right way.’ Each method of therapy can be beneficial for a variety of issues. Psychologists in WD7 specialise in therapeutic approaches such as CBT, EMDR, and Interpersonal Therapy (IPT), among others. Finding a psychologist or counsellor who is a good fit for you is the most important step to discovering what type of therapy, or combination of therapeutic approaches, will meet your individual needs. Learn what to expect from different types of therapy and how they work.
Can I afford counselling?
Yes. Most counsellors offer reasonable rates or will work on a sliding scale basis. Many accept health insurance. Feel free to discuss this when you contact the counsellor.
