I work with clients facing a range of challenges, especially depression, anxiety, trauma and relationship difficulties.
Life can be full of important, painful and challenging relationships, and for me psychological support is a relationship experience that can lead to insight and positive change. I have a diverse range of interests, and I enjoy working with infants, children, adolescents and adults. I have experience in providing both psychotherapy and psychological assessment. Please contact me for more information or you can book your first session directly on my website at www.thomasgeffen.com/book-online

BWRT presents an entirely new view of the subconscious mind and covers the treatment for various psychological issues, including PTSD, C-PTSD anxiety, phobias, and self-worth problems.
I approach my practice with a warm and empathetic attitude. I believe that only through the unconditional acceptance of each individual can they fully express their needs. I believe in a balanced approach and have a graceful attitude. I try to live by the motto: “Be the best person that you can be.”

Are you experiencing anxiety or panic attacks, ranging from general anxiety which you can't pinpoint, to full on attacks that make you feel as though you are dying?
I am a qualified counsellor who provides emotional support to those experiencing difficult life changes. I offer insight, care and guidance to empower individuals, facilitate behaviour change, improve relationships and develop healthy coping mechanisms. I am not a psychologist so I cannot diagnose or work with mental health disorders.

Whether it is stress, anxiety, grief, relationship struggles, or trauma, you can bounce back by taking the first step and choosing to look for the better things life can offer you.
Your journey can sometimes become heavy but you do not have to walk it alone. This is a safe space for you to express yourself and rediscover the strength you already have. Counselling does not always have to be hard or scary, it can also be fun and enlightening. Every life story is worth hearing and every heart is worth healing. Your own well-being should be valued and it is crucial that we prioritise our mental health.

Whether it's coming to understand the effect your past-trauma has on you now, dealing with a current crisis or creating a plan of action to help you move forward in life, I am interested in helping. I aim to find the subtle yin-yang balance between creating an open space for self-exploration and expression, and an environment for pro-active problem solving.

Through these experiences, I have developed special interests that include, but are not limited to anxiety, depression, grief and loss, stress management, adjustment issues, interpersonal difficulties and low self esteem.
My therapeutic approach is guided by what is most effective in assisting you, the individual, based on your own personality style and the type of problem you are facing. I therefore use more of an integrative approach in therapy. The therapeutic orientations that I draw on include Narrative Therapy, CBT, BWRT, Mindfulness and Psychodynamic theory.

I specialize in medium to long term integrative evidence-based psychotherapy, seeking to support children, adolescents and adults with neurodiversity (ADHD/ASD) related matters, LGBTQIA+ experiences, trauma, abuse, relational or familial difficulties, occupational stress, anxiety, mood disorders, grief and/or loss.
In a world where it so often feels as though our stories are written for us, it may become hard to believe that we have the power to change our narratives. Yet, I believe that psychotherapy allows us to do that. I aim to provide a safe, trusting and compassionate environment in which clients of all ages may explore who they are, process pain, hurt, and loss, attain different perspectives, access previously unknown resources and build specific skills to help them navigate circumstances.

I specialize in working with LGBT+ individuals, living with ADHD and anxiety, and sexual issues.
For change to happen, an effort must be made. Counselling isn't so much about what the counsellor has to say. Rather, it's about being committed to doing the work yourself, with someone alongside you as a guide. Growth happens the moment you decide to get to know yourself - faults and all. The journey might not be easy, because growth can sometimes hurt. I'd love to be your guide through it all, and together we can uncover a better version of yourself - not for the sake of others, but for yourself.
