Why Therapy Now?
Whilst the facts of the past cannot be changed your story can become updated in therapy, and help un-addressed difficulties feel more manageable. Consequently, therapy can be a catalyst for growth and healing.
Like all UKCP-registered psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors, I work with a wide range of issues. I have a particular interest and additional experience in supporting adults with:
-Anxiety
-Depression
-Past Childhood concerns
-Current Relationship struggles
-Traumatic Bereavement and Loss - e.g. baby, child, family member, friend, colleague, or pet, and situations such as miscarriage, termination, homicide, or suicide.
-Complex Trauma
I offer an ethical, supportive, and collaborative therapy space where you can explore difficulties safely at your own pace. Together, by reflecting on the meaning of your experiences, we may work towards new ways of understanding them and supporting your wellbeing.
First Session Consultation
Initial consultations are conducted in person rather than by phone, to allow the time and care needed to understand your situation from the outset and begin developing a sense of working together.
In the first session, I will ask about what brings you to therapy, your circumstances, and any previous therapy experiences. We will also discuss how we might work together, practical matters such as fees and session attendance, and any questions you may have.
I will let you know if I feel I may be of service, recognising that some people might benefit from other types of support. If I feel I can offer sessions, I will respect your decision about whether you would like to work with me.
I am a professionally qualified and experienced accredited psychotherapist based in Battersea, London, offering weekly one-to-one therapy sessions for individual adults. My first career was as an NHS healthcare professional, and this brings a wide-ranging perspective to my work as a therapist. I have experience across the NHS, charity, industry, and private practice sectors, supporting adults from diverse cultures, faiths, and backgrounds.
As an integrative therapist I draw upon psychodynamic, relational, existential and trauma theories. My background is in the NHS, charity sector, industry and private practice.
Like all UKCP registered psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors I can work with a wide range of issues, but here are some areas in which I have a special interest or additional experience.
