Bupa Counselling in Isleworth

Most people feel anxious, stressed or low at some point in their lives but often try to struggle through on their own. I understand how daunting it can be to seek professional advice but I have successfully helped many people with a wide variety of problems.

Welcome to my practice, where your personal growth and transformation journey is supported with compassion. Together, we'll identify and change the thought and behaviour patterns that keep you from being your best. ​ I know from personal experience that therapy can be both enjoyable and, at times, challenging. I draw on many techniques, including visualisation, dream exploration, drawing, bodywork, role-play, and the most familiar method: conversation between two people.

I'm a Clinical Psychologist and Supervisor working with Adults. I work with individuals and couples who struggle with anxiety, depression, addiction, anger, self-esteem,​ and relationship issues. Sometimes it is difficult to find the words to describe your emotions or how you are feeling. Please note I am still offering both online and telephone counseling during the COVID situation.

I specialise in mental health challenges such as anxiety, depression, stress and men's related issues. These are issues such as intimacy, ED, low sex drive, pornography and relationship or social challenges. In psychotherapy sessions I provide a confidential setting that encourages you to reflect on your journey. We will explore the feelings, emotions and impact significant events have had on the way you experience day-to-day life. We will work through your thought process moving towards the version of you that you've always wanted to be. Who is that person? Do they allow themselves to smile, laugh and be happy?

My name is Toni and I am an HPCP Registered and BPS Chartered Counselling Psychologist working in Reading, Berkshire and online. In addition to my private practice, I worked in the NHS for over fifteen years where I gained experience working with adults and elders who struggled with a wide variety of issues including anxiety and panic, depression, stress, trauma, psychosis, substance misuse, bereavement, domestic violence, rape, personality issues, self-harm and suicidality. The knowledge and the experience I gained throughout the years enables me to adapt my approach to suit the needs of each individual that I meet.

Welcome to my profile page. I am specialized in treating problems such as Stress,Worry, Anxiety, Psychosis, Depression and OCD. I emphasise the use of Cognitive Behavioral Psychotherapies as these offer a wealth of scientific evidence backing their effectiveness. When getting to know you, I very much emphasize getting an individual picture of your concerns in order to tailor a treatment program towards you. This entails that you will get to know psychotherapeutic principles and techniques that are adapted specifically towards you. The gained knowledge will aid in helping you address your problems in a direct and pragmatic manner.

I empower my clients to live an independent and fearless life using CBT and EMDR. By working with me, you’ll not only be able to cope with your past but also plan for a thriving future. We’ll achieve this by building a powerful psychological toolkit: a collection of practical techniques uniquely designed for you. These include relaxation, coping, assertiveness, resilience & stress management tools & a bespoke psychological roadmap (formulation). These tools will allow you to step back from triggering situations, notice unhelpful patterns in your thoughts, behaviours and emotions, respond mindfully & break free from old patterns.

I am a licensed health psychologist and CBT therapist with several years of clinical experience in providing psychological services mostly focusing on adults (NHS setting - since 2014). I specialise in the treatment of anxiety disorders, stress, depression and have also worked with groups on managing chronic pain and long-term conditions. I have a particular interest in perinatal psychological wellbeing and aim to support women and/or their partners who are dealing with postnatal depression, loss of a pregnancy or baby, or even those trying to adjust to their family’s new dynamics and all the stress that this can cause.

My first training in therapy was ‘Person Centred’. This therapy places emphasis on providing a safe, empathic, non-judgemental space to discuss whatever is troubling you. I have come to specialise in Trauma and Complex PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder). EMDR is clinically proven to heal all kinds of traumatic experiences. More recently, I have begun to incorporate Internal Family Systems (IFS) theory into my practice as it helps to identify different parts of ourselves that can sometimes be in conflict.

I believe we all hold the power to heal ourselves. It takes courage to face our insecurities and discomfort that can leave us feeling stuck, overwhelmed or confused. You don't have to struggle alone, sometimes we could use a little support. My role as your therapist is to work with your unique process and guide you to reconnect with your own healing energy- So you can start to trust yourself to make the changes you need and achieve your personal goals from a balanced place of clarity and confidence.

I truly care for all of my clients, and work diligently to help find them the answers they seek. I believe in developing a strong collaborative relationship with my clients to maximize their success. My strength-based approach is rooted in Systemic Theory. Empathy and humour play a significant role in my relational style. I have worked with children, adolescents, and families with a variety of social, emotional, behavioural and learning issues.

My main focus to to support you to overcome self-limiting behaviours in order to live a more fulfilling life and to accompany you on a journey of self-discovery within a confidential and safe setting.

Stress & Anxiety Therapy. Firstly, I know it is hard to know what therapist is right for you so check out my website blogs on 'how to pick a therapist'. Working with me... I am a Stress & Anxiety Psychologist. I work with high achievers who are being held back by stress and anxiety. My clients are often fuelled by perfectionism and people-pleasing tendencies. Despite successful careers, their personal lives do not match up.

My name is Dr Homen Chow and I am a Chartered Clinical Psychologist and Accredited EMDR therapist. I have experiencing working with trauma, low, mood, anxiety, stress, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, and with those who find it difficult to control or regulate their emotions. I use evidenced-based therapies (Psychodynamic, CBT, DBT etc.) to guide treatment in a way that is adapted to each individual, to help make sense of their own difficulties and strengths. I tend to best support those whose difficulties arise in relationships, be that personal, professional or societal.
