Counselling in North West London, London

If you are in pain and willing to work hard, then I might be the person you need. I'm experienced at helping people with a wide range of issues and have a proven track-record of collaborative working to reduce suffering and enhance awareness. Whatever the nature of your pain the core of this work is self-expression and self-exploration to find a freer, healthier way to be in the world. This involves a balance of self-acceptance and change. I will be deeply present along side you in this exploration.

From £50 Tuesday to Saturday. Central London and Ealing. ( See Website). Appointments are available all day from early morning to late evening. Hello and thank you for looking at my page. I believe that every client I work with is unique. My approach is therefore flexible and sensitive to the individual life experience of each on. I offer both short-term, solution-focused therapy and longer-term exploratory therapy to individuals over 18 years in English or French.

Hi there, I'm Maria. If you've found yourself here, you might be grappling with great pain, change, loss, or simply a sense that something within needs tending to. Whatever the cause, I believe therapy to be a relational encounter which can foster a deeper understanding of our inner worlds, including the challenges we face or the patterns that keep us stuck. As an integrative therapist, I offer a warm and non-judgmental space from which we can explore what's going on for you. Working together, my goal is to walk alongside you in your process of self-discovery, healing, and growth.

Do you feel stuck in your life? Do you have a need to prove to others that you are good enough? Do you depend on the opinions of other people? Do you have repetitive scenarios in your relationships? Are you fed up with your old habits? Whatever challenges you have it is very important to understand that we are all learning and nobody is perfect, otherwise we would not be here on the planet Earth. I invite you to explore and release what is on the way to the real You, what is holding you back. Imagine what it would feel like to have a true freedom in your life. What would it look like? What would it sound like?

When I start working with a new client, I view it as an exploration. Each individual I meet has a unique story and experience of life. The process of untangling and looking at the different parts in a persons life can be challenging but important if one wants to gain a deeper understanding of oneself and ultimately maybe make some changes? I understand the profound need to be heard and how this can be the catalyst for change. We can carry pain and distress, sometimes for years. Being able to trust a therapist and consequently share these feelings can help us manage our stress and possibly build a healthier life.

Finding a therapist that "feels right" can be a daunting prospect at a time when you may already be feeling overwhelmed. I offer a space that is safe and without judgement, where you can start to make sense of your feelings. I am interested in how we relate to each other and what makes us connect as human beings. Working relationally, I take notice of what happens between us as this will reveal something of your relationships with other people. I believe that once we gain a better understanding of our experience and what motivates us, we can make new choices, rather than being driven by old patterns of behaviour.

I have extensive experience working with both children and adults coping with different psychological symptoms and medical conditions. Over the years I have worked extensively with people with problems such as depression and anxiety (e.g. stress, OCD, specific phobias, health worries, sleep problems, skin picking and trichotillomania). I also have experience in working with children with ADHD and providing consultations to parents on different parenting issues (e.g. behavioura

I am passionate about working with children and believe that every child should have the opportunity to meet their potential and achieve success. Psychological assessments make it possible to identify a child's strengths and areas of need, with a view to devising and implementing a comprehensive programme to support their needs and maximise their potential. I have worked and supported children with a range of needs including; learning difficulties, dyslexia, dyscalculia, language difficulties, processing and memory difficulties, social communication difficulties, attention difficulties, emotional and behavioural needs.

I deal with a large variety of emotional and psychological problems and my goal is to help clients learn strategies to manage their personal challenges and reach their goals in as fast a time possible. My areas of expertise include CBT for all types of Anxiety disorders and phobias. Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing therapy (EMDR), recognised as particularly successful for PTSD and trauma issues and hypnotherapy and mindfulness techniques. I have also successfully treated all types of weight and food issues. I offer unconditional positive regard, compassion, empathy, genuineness and respect for you, and your values

I aim to tailor the therapy to meet clients very specific needs with an empathetic and congruent approach. Confidentiality and trust are essential to the counselling process. Clients may share difficult feelings and thoughts with me safe in the knowledge that their personal identity and information will be retained in confidence. I am here for you, to build trust and confidence and to help you unlock your true potential. Therapy might seem daunting at first, but my aim is to bring my clients into contact with what matters in life, to ground them and assist them to encounter​ themselves and others​ better. ​

Choosing the right Counsellor can be a challenge. As an integrative therapist, I combine Person-Centred and Psychodynamic approaches. Person-Centred therapy focuses on your feelings and experiences, creating a supportive space for self-exploration whilst the Psychodynamic approach explores past experiences and unconscious thoughts, aiming to bring awareness to patterns and conflicts for emotional insight. My role is to act as a mirror for you.

I work with couples enabling and empowering them to experience renewed passion and connectivity. I also work with individuals using EFT empowering them to heal themselves. Couples may be searching for love and passion perhaps after empty nest, affairs emotional or physical. At the other end of the scale I help younger couples who are unsure whether to commit to a particular relationship and want guidance, and coaching. I offer tools and insights how to make marriage work better than the models they may have had. Age range of clients is from 18-80 to date.I am passionate about helping people live a rich and meaningful life.

Do you feel overwhelmed by anxiety or depression? Let me help you take control of your life. With over a decade of experience using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and accreditation by the BABCP, I offer personalised and supportive care to help you overcome your mental health challenges. Whether you're dealing with Generalised Anxiety Disorder, OCD, Social Anxiety, Health Anxiety, Panic Disorder, Phobias, or PTSD, I have the expertise to help you break free from these debilitating conditions. I'm passionate about helping people make meaningful changes in their lives.

Life can become overwhelming, confusing, and difficult to manage. Experiences such as loss, bereavement and major life changes like a medical crisis can make us lose our sense of self and purpose. Depression, anxiety and personality disorders can distort our sense of self, rob us off our full personal potential and quality of life leaving us feeling depleted. Therapy is a place to regain and restore your sense of self and purpose and to help you turn these experiences to an opportunity to grow.

I am a qualified psychotherapist registered with the BPC and the BACP, I am also registered with Aviva insurance. I have extensive experience seeing a broad range of psychotherapy patients in the NHS where I have worked with issues including trauma, depression, anxiety, abuse and personality disorders. If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, instability, addictions or a lack of meaning and purpose then psychotherapy could be of real value. It is an opportunity to have conversations and experiences that I don’t believe we can have anywhere else.

Have you hit rock bottom? Do you feel you can't stop worrying? Are you afraid of losing your temper? I can help you overcome depression, anxiety, anger or relationship issues or support you in coping with bereavement and loss.

We all face emotional difficulties at some point that stop us from enjoying life as much as we would like. Talking to friends and family can be helpful, but sometimes this isn't possible or doesn't feel enough. Whether you're finding things challenging, or you have a sense that you could be more connected with yourself and others in your life, counselling can offer a unique opportunity to explore whatever is troubling you, and can help by providing you with support and understanding.

Hi, my name is Yaela. I'm a South African born psychologist with a speciality in Expressive Arts Therapy. I've worked with everyone from drug addicts to the homeless. In 2020, when Covid-19 broke out, I was working in acute mental health at a London-based organization. The loneliness within society, that has always been beneath the surface, became starkly evident. In order to help my clients, and my future clients, overcome the suffering of loneliness, I began a three-year global research project to uncover what makes happy, connected, healthy societies and how these lessons can be applied in the daily lives of my clients.

I help people to feel better about themselves and empowered to make positive changes to their lives. Being truly heard (perhaps for the first time) by someone who will never judge, dictate to, or betray you, can be a profoundly healing experience. With growing trust and commitment, negative thoughts and feelings can be explored, understood and overcome. Regrets about the past and fears for the future can be replaced by fulfilment in the present.
