Infertility Counselling in London

Life is full of adversity, which at times prove too overwhelming or painful for our coping mechanisms. In addition, the trauma may be too intimate to share with friends or family members. This is the point when therapy can prove to be of valid help. Therapy can also support you through life transition and help you to process a significant life event. It offers a safe, confidential and non-judgmental space to talk through and explore past experiences that influences the way we are today. It can help in prioritising what really matters, unblocks creativity and provides tools to turn crises into opportunities.

I offer a confidential space and time to talk, explore feelings and deal with uncertainties or current problems in one’s life. Through our time we will explore together and bring an awareness of your inner world to help make sense out of your particular circumstances that are bringing you concern. I will offer you an empathic, warm, and non-judgmental space to listen to you. Through our reflections we can, together, help you find ways to work through your problems, and become more able and self-aware to cope in your future life. My practice is professional and confidential. I respect and am open to diversity and differences.

Short and long term trauma-informed counselling and EMDR for individuals. Couples counselling. Supervision for counsellors. I provide a non-judgemental, safe and holding space where you can get an insight into your problems and symptoms. Trauma-informed counselling is not about finding what's "wrong" with you; it is about helping you to understand how your past experiences are contributing to your current problems and supporting you to find your own way in moving forward in life. I am a qualified EMDR practitioner and have an extensive experience in working with trauma survivors in private practice and larger organisations.

More often than not, the roots of emotional problems go deeper than normal awareness can reach, and my role is to enable you to identify, and focus on, some of the destructive ways of relating to yourself and others that might leave you feeling depressed, anxious or alone. ​ Together, we will create a safe and creative environment, which will help you to explore the different aspects of yourself – some which harmoniously coexist, and others that are at odds with each other.

Perhaps you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or isolated. Maybe you struggle with a sense of hopelessness, feeling that your circumstances or your past mistakes define your future. You may be searching for therapy because you long for change, for a life where burdens are lighter and joy returns. I offer understanding without judgment, practical guidance, and its my sole purpose to help you find a renewed belief in yourself. My practice is compassionate, solution-focused and based in relationship.

I am a Clinical Psychologist specialising in working with individuals and couples presenting with sexual and relationship difficulties. I have a background of working in NHS Sexual Health services, and am experienced in supporting people presenting with pain during sex, vaginismus, vulvodynia, low desire, concerns about libido, difficulties related to orgasm, unreliable erections, and anxiety about sex and relationships. The psychological therapy I provide is evidence-based and draws on a variety of approaches including CBT, CFT, Systemic Family Therapy, Sex Therapy techniques and Psychodynamically-informed Therapy.

As a clinical psychotherapist,​ I have over 10 year’s experience of working with patients and clients with many different struggles and difficulties. Trained as an integrative therapist, I work in a unique way that is based on your own individual needs. I believe that everyone is different and not every modality suits everyone. I know only too well how difficult life can be, yet uniquely different, we all suffer pain and loss in many similar ways. I feel truly humbled to work in this field and would be honoured to support you. You are not alone.

Welcome, I'm Dr Charmaine Elliott. I practice therapy to empower my clients in pursuing a better future. You might feel vulnerable thinking about sharing concerns you've been keeping private. Maybe you can name how you feel, and want specific help. You could be seeking fresh perspectives, a compassionate champion to help you grow out of a difficult patch, so you can make a new start and achieve your vision for yourself. I specialise in working with women to alleviate impacts of low mood, self-esteem, anxiety, trauma, grief or relationship concerns. Your problems can be overcome, your opportunities widened, your value maximised.

I am a psychodynamic psychotherapist with specialist experience of working with couples and individuals experiencing relationship and personal difficulties. Some of the areas that I have worked with clients include: • Communication difficulties • Feeling confused or stuck in your relationship • Repetitive and/or escalating arguments • Lack of intimacy – emotional and physical • Parenting challenges • Separation and divorce • Difficulty in maintaining lasting relationships • Anxiety and/or depression • Life events such as loss, trauma, abortion, miscarriage and illness • Cultural, sexual and identity issues

When you think of starting therapy, you might be at a pivotal stage in your life where you are repeatedly facing a wall that you want to break through. Understanding what might be going on for you is the first step before you begin.

Hi and welcome, I’m Chris and I am a BACP registered counsellor and psychotherapist. I work with a wide variety of clients from all walks of life, with particular experience working with those in The Arts. Life can be challenging, but whatever you are facing you don’t have to face it alone. I’ll work with you to create a strong and supportive therapeutic relationship that will help you to flourish. I am here for you and your wellbeing, and humour, creativity, and sensitivity will be central pillars of our journey together.

Therapy is a space for you: to feel understood and listened to. Perhaps for the first time. And it is through this fundamental encounter that you can feel more able and alive. Our work together can support you in making a change, reflecting on painful experience, bearing a loss, finding a purpose. It can support you in these - and more - through creating new awareness, making helpful connections and finding a way forward. Therapy provides a way for you to understand, confront, resolve, heal and grow. I provide a safe, welcoming space for you to explore whatever it is that you need and want. In confidence and without judgement.

Life has a tendency to throw major challenges at us without warning. You may find yourself dealing with a specific life changing circumstance such as a new diagnosis, bereavement, traumatic experiences, relationship difficulties or redundancy to name a few. Sometimes being able to pin point feelings can be a little difficult. You may be experiencing feelings of being stuck and are anxious, depressed or just unsure of how you currently feel about your life or a certain situation.

Exploring your thoughts and feelings with a counsellor can help you to live a freer, happier life. It can open up new ways of looking at and dealing with crises, challenges or problems you may be facing. I have experience of working with clients from diverse backgrounds and I believe identity is fundamental to how we see – and are seen by – the world. I am queer-positive, and affirming of all gender identities and sexual preferences. I am a bilingual English/French speaker and also offer sessions in Portuguese.

I offer psychological therapy online or face to face at the Seven Lion Yard Practice in Clapham. I have experience working with clients across the lifespan and within the NHS I currently work in a specialist burns unit with both adults and young people. In my private work, I see a broad range of difficulties such as anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, depression and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). I also help people who might be adjusting to a major life change or challenge, such as a health condition or the end of a relationship.

I believe that as human beings we seek safety, comfort and pleasure, and with this in mind, I aim to create a safe space in the therapy room, by building a therapeutic relationship with the client in the present, being with the client in their discomfort or confusion and exploring with them, experiences on an emotional level which helps them to find meaning in their world. I work existentially, however, I do draw from a number of disciplines to creatively attend to the presenting needs of the clients, helping them to find meaning and purpose in their lives and their relationships.

Hi there, taking the first step to reach out for therapy can be daunting, so welcome. We all need some assistance at some point in our lives. Whether its due to an unforeseen crisis, a yearning for change, or healing from long standing concerns. Whatever bought you here I whole heartedly believe its the best gift to give to yourselve.

I am a BACP registered integrative therapist using a variety of approaches depending on the needs of each client. My approach is collaborative, practical and personal. I believe that human beings are naturally resilient and have an incredible capacity for change in the right supportive environment. We are often held back by our limiting core beliefs and by bringing awareness to our repeated patterns of behaviour, we can identify areas where we are “stuck” and are held there by our core beliefs. My aim is to help clients make space for new possibilities and new ways of being by challenging these limiting core beliefs together.

Are you experiencing difficulties and challenges in your life, feeling confused or overwhelmed? We can all experience difficulties and challenges and you may now be feeling confused or overwhelmed by what is going on in your life and not be able to see a way through. In the past you may have been able to resolve your issue on your own or turned to family or friends but perhaps, now, these supports are not available. At times like these it can be helpful to talk to a professional who will provide a confidential space, listen non-judgementally and have the experience to support you explore your thoughts, behaviours and feelings.
