Sexual Abuse Counselling in Kingston upon Thames

Everyone experiences a wide range of feelings in life. You may be experiencing difficulties at home, work, college or university, with relationships, health and other life struggles. You may have reached a point in life where you need more than a friendly ear and I appreciate that seeing a counsellor can seem overwhelming. My aim is to provide a professional, but warm, confidential non-judgemental, caring, safe environment where you and I can explore your difficulties together. I place a lot of emphasis on our relationship, with us getting to know each-other and working collaboratively to improve your wellbeing.

Hello and welcome to my profile page. I am a UKCP-registered clinical psychotherapist offering short and long-term therapy in Surrey and London. Most of my work is with clients experiencing depression, low mood or anxiety. I understand that the process of therapy may appear daunting and that the first steps take a lot of courage. I also believe we all possess the capacity to make new meaning of our lives and experiences to ease any distress we may experience.

Hello and thank you for visiting my profile. I am guessing you are curious to explore and potentially find someone who can help with how you are currently feeling. Perhaps you are finding your current circumstances and relationships challenging? Are you grappling with difficult emotions like depression, anxiety, or anger? Perhaps past or present experiences are holding you back or undermining your self-esteem? Or maybe you just feel a general sense of dissatisfaction, that something is ‘not quite right'.

I work with individuals and couples, helping them find ways to live a more fulfilled and satisfying life. Over time, we develop ways of behaving, thinking and feeling that work well enough to get by, but sometimes get ‘stuck’; I’m trained and experienced in finding and understanding those patterns and, without judgement, getting to the heart of how to put things right. I’ve worked in private practice, charities and the NHS with a range of individual issues, particularly depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress and historical trauma; couples work includes relationship breakdown, affairs, communication and conflict challenges.

Reaching out and asking for help can be both scary and difficult. You may be struggling with things in your life and you don't know how to manage them. My aim is to provide a safe and confidential space in which you will be heard without the fear of being judged. Where you will feel accepted for who you are. As an Integrative Relational counsellor I blend different theories and approaches to suit you specific and needs. Together we will work side by side as you embark on your therapeutic journey.

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.

Therapy can be an opportunity for you to develop self-awareness, and a deeper understanding of the ways in which you relate to both yourself and others. It can be a place to explore and make sense of the things that are getting in the way of you living the life that you wish to live. This will involve us working together to explore the issues you bring.

Hi I'm Daniel (He/Him). I'm a counsellor who provides support for people that are struggling with feelings of depression, anxiety and grief. I work with people seeking support with difficult life decisions and challenges in their relationships. Often people attend because they are feeling 'stuck'; finding themselves arriving at the same place, despite trying really hard to change. Perhaps they are drinking, shopping or eating to cope or escape. The sex and relationships they're having has stopped feeling safe or fulfilling. They're doing things to 'feel better' while avoiding people, places or decisions due to fear or shame.

Are you struggling in life?  Have you worked on yourself in conventional therapy but are seeking a holistic treatment that enables you to dig deeper into your psyche or integrate your spiritual journey into everyday life?  Is trauma, anxiety, depression, or low self-esteem making it hard to cope with life’s problems and reach your full potential?  Are you in recovery but finding it hard to connect with your higher self?  Do you and your partner constantly fight or have problems relating to each other?  Are you considering seeing a therapist to help you better understand why you think and behave the way you do?

Maybe you feel lost in life, or unable to achieve certain desires. It can be hard to sort through difficult feelings or thoughts. We can often feel a sense of shame in our experiences, but I am here to express that you are not alone.

I’m a strong believer that, in the words of Nelson Mandela “there is no passion to be found playing small – in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living” – yet sometimes life is really quite tough and we find ourselves struggling and this ideal seems far from our reality. You may find yourself feeling emotionally overwhelmed, anxious or lonely. Or, you may have been struggling for some time and haven’t found the motivation to address it but now that struggle may be feeling a little bigger.

Finding a good match for a therapist can seem daunting. In consulting with me, I seek to offer you the benefits of my many years' experience with a sensitive and respectful approach.  Whether you are struggling with anxiety or low mood, or feel stuck in a difficult situation, or feel you are not fulfilling your potential, or perhaps have an adolescent son or daughter who you are concerned about, I would value hearing from you.
