Stress Counselling in South East London, London

How are you at the moment? Is everything becoming too much ? Do you struggle with everyday life and having difficulty in making sense of what is going on? Stress, anxiety, feeling low, depression, experiencing relationship issues, work burnout or going through life transitions including health concerns can be overwhelming. Through exploring your life challenges together in counselling you can learn a meaningful and different perspective and develop self-awareness. This will enable you to empower yourself and make personal and positive changes in your life.

I am a Specialist Clinical Psychologist offering a therapy space to explore, build psychological tools and make sense of difficult experiences. My therapeutic style acknowledges that your mind, body, spirit, and community are connected. I invite you to bring all aspects of your identity that are important to you; whether it's your ethnicity, faith, cultural beliefs - all these areas can shape how we uniquely experience a range of mental health difficulties. I specialise in anxiety, burnout and stress management, adjusting to health diagnosis, lack of confidence, racial trauma, low mood or impostor syndrome.

I have experience in working with anxiety, depression, anger management, eating disorders, addictions, relationship issues, sexual assault, and work related stress issues. With couples I deal with communication styles, relational and attachment patterns and I am particularly interested in the complex issues surrounding infidelity and betrayal.

I am a transactional analysis psychotherapist and counsellor. I always appreciate that it takes courage to seek support and the first step can seem daunting. Therapy can help to organise your thoughts and feelings and free you from repeated patterns of behaviour that prevent you from leading a happier and more fulfilling life. You can learn to understand why those patterns are there and how to change them, so that they no longer control what you are trying to achieve for yourself. I work online and face to face (depending on availability of space). The virtual setting is calm, confidential and safe.

With over 15 years experience, every single client I worked with was ideal to me, as being unique, with his/her story, difficulties, weaknesses but also strengths. At times clients come to therapy with a specific goal, other times they do not have a clue, and this is part of the process. If a client is now reading my profile, he/she may be struggling with a recent or more long-standing emotional distress, not able to sleep, concentrate, work, relate to others, etc. He/she may be worrying about what to say to a psychologist; what to expect; possibly fearful of being judged, not understood; if the psychologist would be good enough...

Speaking with someone for the first time about personal issues or trauma can feel really daunting. It is important to feel safe and not judged when talking about difficult things, and my aim is for us to develop a relationship where you can explore whatever it is that you need to. There is not an exhaustive list of the reasons for coming to counselling initially but one thing is sure and that is it begins with building trust and beginning to speak openly. Our sessions will be collaborative: I will facilitate, but you will lead the way. Even if you can't pin point why things feel difficult, you're not alone.

In today's world, life can sometimes appear to be demanding which may leave us feeling overwhelmed, stressed, depressed and anxious. I am able to offer a safe, warm, non-judgemental space to support in the free exploration of what is happening to you. I am here to listen to you.

I am an accredited integrative psychotherapist (MBACP) with a special focus on trauma and dissociation. I work relationally, which means that, through the therapeutic relationship, you are encouraged to understand how early experiences and past relationships impact on your present difficulties. In order to access emotions and past traumatic experiences trapped in the body I sometimes use a more mindful and somatic approach in addition to traditional talking therapies. Of special interest to me is how unresolved and traumatic experiences can be healed and transformed by a greater integration of the mind and body.

Are you dealing with challenges like depression, anxiety, stress, long term health conditions, neurodiversity related issues or relationship issues? Are you looking for a strong, trust-based therapeutic relationship where you feel safe and understood? Are you looking for a non-judgmental, supportive, and genuinely caring therapist to work together to figure out what is going on and to set goals? Alternatively, are you looking for career mentoring or support with personal development or significant life changes from an experienced therapist who has 20 years of experience working in finance and living overseas?

‘We all need someone to talk to some of the time’ and across the multi-dimensional layers of personality and global connectedness, to be human means we will be faced with situations and events during our lifetime that we believe a hundred percent, we will have little or no chance of sorting out or finding solutions to. The truism is there are always solutions, some more easily achievable and likeable, others less so. Nonetheless these too are solutions and place ALL at the doorway of all possibility. The wisdom then is to stand in the doorway to commence the healing transformations of finding answers and pathways towards resolution.

Can you imagine what life could be like as a result of a Counsellors guidance? I specialise in the range of Anxiety issues (Panic Attacks, Confidence, relationship dilemmas & more). I use brief & practical counselling to provide tools & help manage. "I don’t have much experience in therapy but Mary used some techniques with me that have been very useful. After 5 sessions I am starting to feel a lot more positive and no more sleepless nights." The more you avoid it, the worse you feel so if Anxiety is taking control let me teach you evidence based tools. Having epilepsy I learned to work with any problem until I find the solutions.
