Life can throw challenges our way leaving us feeling stuck, afflicted, confused, lonely and in pain. Finding our way through strenuous times can feel overwhelming and sometimes even undoable.

Therapy can provide a space to explore your inner tensions in a warm, caring and non-judgmental environment, enabling you to heal, deepen your self-awareness and discover new insights. Therapy can help you to make positive changes for a wholesome and fulfilling life - full of love, joy, and inspiration.

I was born in Canada, and was fortunate to live move my family and work in many countries. I have lived experience and an understanding of how belonging and finding a sense of self can be both challenging and exciting. Through our reflections you gain an awareness of your inner world to help make sense out of your particular circumstances that are bringing you concern. Together, help you find ways to work through your problems, and become more able and self-aware to cope in your future life. I will offer you an empathic, warm, and non-judgmental space to listen to you. I respect and am open to diversity and differences.

I specialise in working with adults and am dedicated to serving diverse populations. With a wealth of experience supporting LGBTQIA+ communities and individuals from various backgrounds, I bring a deep understanding of different walks of life. Having experienced both sides of the therapeutic process, I deeply empathise with the challenges of reaching out for support and the transformative journey that therapy entails. I submitted my doctoral thesis in January 2024 and am currently going through the award process to become a Doctor of Counselling Psychology (RUL) and practice as a BACP accredited Psychotherapist (MBACP)

I am a qualified BACP registered person-centred therapist offering therapy both online and in person in West and Central London. Starting therapy and opening up to a stranger can seem daunting and difficult when you are feeling uncomfortable and low. I aim to offer you the chance to do so in a safe, non-judgmental and strictly confidential space which I hope can allow you to explore how things can change.

I hold huge love and commitment in working alongside people to empower them in looking at events in their lives which may have been overwhelming or distressing and can happen to anyone at any time. Sometimes life can leave us feeling stuck, not knowing where to turn. Distressing events can fill us with fear in taking the next step. Feeling confused and overwhelmed can unexpectedly stop us in our tracks. Whatever your challenge, my approach is to offer an honest, trusting relationship within which to accompany you through your difficulties to regain your confidence in finding your way to a better place in life.

Besides working online, I can also see you in person in the following London areas: Wandsworth, Kensington, Hammersmith, the City.
Freedom is what you do with what's been done to you... (Jean-Paul Sartre) I believe therapy not only offers a space for processing confused, difficult or painful feelings but also aids self-discovery and development. I offer a safe space for my clients where they may explore things they have never talked about before. My priority is to provide a confidential, empathic and accepting atmosphere in which my client is free to question, reflect upon and express their true and unique self. I do this by developing a therapeutic connection with my client so that I accompany them on their journey side by side.

Hi, my name is Simon and I work as a Psychotherapist in Private Practice in London. Clients who come to me for help usually have high levels of anxiety or depression and find themselves in repeating patterns within their relationships or at work that make them unhappy. I would offer you a safe, containing space where you could talk about and explore anything that’s difficult or overwhelming. We all have emotional needs and problems often arise when those needs are unmet. I would carefully explore which of your emotional needs were unmet during your childhood and possibly in your present life.

I understand that life's trials and tribulations can have an effect on your daily life. You try to carry on but with each passing day, your problems still seem to travel with you. I quote; "we are a little bit of everywhere we've been" - as a result you've taken many forms that are untrue to your authentic self. Your troubles may have taken form as depression, anxiety, stress, shame, self-criticism, relationship issues and more. Sharing what you're carrying can feel intense and together, we'll uncover what is weighing on you, to develop your self-awareness and inspired change. I offer a sensitive, holding and intuitive atmosphere.

Whenever you're not willing to feel an emotion, your choices and behaviours stem from your avoidance of that emotion. Your resistance runs your life & is directly contrary to your overall best interest. Similarly, traumas are incidents unable to be completed. The energies of these traumas are stored in our body until they can be released. I assist you to unlock these traumas by reactivating the emotional responses to these trapped emotions, which unlocks the synapses in the brain, allowing new positive emotional learning to replace the old trauma. Your energy field then becomes less dense, & a new sense of freedom takes hold.

I work face-to-face in Hammersmith but due to Covid-19 I am mainly helping people online by Skype, Zoom, WhatsApp and telephone. I focus much of my work with clients who have reached an impasse in their lives, feel stuck and like they are making the same relationship or work choices again and again. Perhaps they have a general dissatisfaction in life that they cannot seem to see a way past. I seek to change and understand why you keep repeating negative cycles of behaviour. I have experience working with clients; particularly in relationship difficulties, bereavement, jealousy, anger, anxiety and negative thoughts.

Feeling alone in your relationship? Can't figure out why your relationships aren't working out and you end up alone? You are not alone. If your relationships aren't working, are unhappy, are unsatisfying your quality of life isn't all it could be. It's sad. It's exhausting. It feels hopeless sometimes. You are already taking the first step looking for someone to help you. I hear from so many couples and individuals who felt ashamed or frustrated they couldn't figure it out for themselves. That it means their marriage must be over or somethings wrong with them if they need to see a relationship therapist. You are not alone.

Hello, I'm Alice. I'm a person-centred psychotherapist and counsellor. I have learned people often don’t need advice or solutions. They need someone who will listen, care and understand them. From both personal and professional experience, I have a deep understanding of the challenges many of us face in life. I can help you if you are struggling with difficulties such as grief, relationship issues, suicidal thoughts, or you are living with chronic pain and disability. Or perhaps you are feeling really anxious and depressed and you just don’t understand why but need somebody to talk to.
