Somatic Counselling in London

Do you feel lost and disconnected from yourself and people around you and you do not know why? Have you lost a sense of purpose or hope, and feel you are lacking control over your own life? Are you repeating the same patterns in your life and find it difficult to change them? The idea of therapy can be daunting, and it can be scary to open up to someone, but you made the first step. I am here to work together with you, and go at your own pace. I provide a safe and non judgemental space offering empathy, creativity, integrity and compassion.

Do you suffer from anxiety? Feel depressed or struggle with unwanted emotions? I have helped a lot of people struggling with life and its many pressures and demands. I could also help you find a way forward with what may feel like impossible problems. I have worked with clients mainly in a general service, encountering all sorts of problems and working all kinds of developmental needs. I have also practised in an addictions setting and a bereavement service. I currently work in a rehabilitation service, in general counselling service and in private practice. I also offer a free assessment as a starting point.

Hello and thank you for visiting my profile. If you're feeling overwhelmed, unloved, or any of the complex emotions life throws at us, I’m here to offer my support. Together, we'll navigate through the complexities of life and work towards understanding and accepting the parts of you that may have been rejected, hidden or misunderstood. In my practice, I provide a confidential space free from judgement, where your voice is heard, your experiences validated, and your presence accepted.

Are you feeling anxious or depressed? Is life seeming like too much to cope with? Do you feel confused, find it difficult to know what you want or difficult to express your needs? Are your relationships troubling you rather than bringing you joy and satisfaction? Do you suffer from unexplained aches and pains or sometimes find it difficult to breathe? Do you sometimes wonder how you ended up in the life you're leading? Is this all there is? Does your own body seem alien to you? Uncomfortable? Do you find it hard to appreciate your body or do beneficial things like eating well or getting exercise. Body psychotherapy can help.

Welcome, I'm Reka. You may be going through difficulties in life right now and would like to get some clarity and relief, and would like to feel heard and listened to. As a therapist, I can help you learn how to reflect on yourself with empathy and without judgement in order to reach greater awareness which gives you freedom, authenticity and can lead to healing. With my relational, experiential and holistic approach I can support you through difficult experiences, such as: burnout, anxiety, career change, loss, grief, depression, trauma, medically unexplained symptoms, and more, check out my website to find out more.

Hello and thank you for visiting my page. You are likely here because you are going through things that you need support with, and you might be considering if counselling can help, or if I am the right therapist for you. I have a warm and down to earth approach and as an integrative practitioner, I support people with various issues including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma, bereavement, and those searching for meaning, to name a few. I will work collaboratively with you to understand your unique needs, and how you can be supported with your goals for therapy.

Hi, I am Lisa. Seeking support is daunting, which is why I focus on providing a confidential, and supportive space, for you to explore and address your concerns. I offer face-to-face and/or online therapy sessions. I offer short and long term therapy, typically seeing clients for weekly sessions. I support people with issues such as relationship difficulties, communication skills, anxiety, sexual orientation, anger management and women's health such as menopause, sexual issues, ADHD, loss and trauma.

Sometimes life can be challenging. The cost of living crisis has triggered uncertainty, anxiety, and stress in many. Perhaps you’ve suffered from workplace issues or a redundancy? You may have experienced traumatic loss or a bereavement and want to make sense of this? Do you feel anxious or under pressure about deadlines or exams? Maybe you are in the midst of a career change? If you don’t feel like yourself & need unbiased, confidential support, whatever the challenge, I will empower you to transform. I work in W1 in Central London, in SW7, Kensington, and Hammersmith, W6. Contact me for an initial free consultation.

I have 17 years experience of offering a supportive, confidential place in which to make some sense of symptoms such as anxiety, stress, depression, or a sense of general dissatisfaction. You may have suffered a loss, or trauma, or be going through a transition in your life and would like to talk to a professional. People come to therapy for many reasons. I see my role as therapist as being someone who can support you in learning more about yourself, your thinking and behaviours, your relationships, and your unconscious motivations, supporting you to create meaning, and to make the changes that you feel you need.

You may be feeling stuck, overwhelmed by thoughts and emotions that seem to pull you further away from the life you want to live. Whether you’re struggling with body image issues, eating disorders, chronic pain or grief, you might feel like your goals are slipping out of reach. You long for change but aren’t sure where to start, and you might be searching for a way to understand yourself better and create a life that feels more meaningful and fulfilling.

Maybe you are at a point where you wish to understand yourself and your reactions to difficult life events such as trauma, discrimination , loss or illness. Perhaps you are wanting to develop a better relationship with yourself and would like more respect and reciprocity in your relationships with others but feel unsure how you might put this into place? Healing and growth can both exciting and scary. But if you are open to learning from setbacks and making helpful changes, then progress is possible.

The clients that I work with want to learn how to manage their anxiety and excessive stress whilst also learning how to develop a deeper sense of confidence within themselves. Clients often come to me with specific goals in mind such as being able to finally achieve some long held confidence goals that they have in mind, or finally be able to tackle their social anxiety so they can start to take a proactive approach towards dating.

Humanistic therapy is about building a bond centred on your needs. I offer psychotherapy services to help you overcome life challenges, understand yourself better and to improve your mental health. My expertise includes working with trauma, neglect, relationships, identity, gender/sexuality challenges, and other manifestations of life crises. I know the impact of systemic oppression and provide a safe, inclusive space for navigating these issues. Embracing a deeper understanding of yourself, your community and the world around you can enrich your relationships, sense of belonging, purpose, and overall well-being.

I am a fully qualified, experienced and accredited psychotherapist, specialist in psychosexual & relationship therapy, couples therapy, and the treatment of compulsive sexual behaviours. I am a clinical traumatologist specialist in providing therapy for survivors of sexual abuse. I offer clinical supervision to psychotherapists, psychologists, counsellors and other mental health professionals. I hold a full professional insurance.

Do you find yourself overwhelmed by anxiety and worry, no matter what you do? Are you low in confidence, paralysed by fears about the future, and frustrated that others seem to have it all together while you’re constantly living in fear and panic? You might not even remember a time things didn’t feel this way. But now you’re ready to resolve your difficulties so you can be free of fear, stress and worry. You’re ready to learn practical skills and tools, so you can handle whatever life throws at you without overwhelm. Most of all, you’re ready to feel calm, confident to face life’s challenges and comfortable in your own skin.

I have been working in psychotherapy since 2003. My background encompasses both private mental health sectors and NHS Mental Health Trusts, working both 1:1 and in groups, and includes working in a cutting-edge therapeutic community. I have seen a diverse range of clients from many differing backgrounds and cultures, and with a wide range of presenting problems. I continue to enjoy working with a wide variety of clients and presentations, from personal development goals to mental health spectrum based work. I also work as a clinical supervisor, and head up Beverley Blackman Associates (please see website for more details).

You can expect to receive effective, nurturing, honest therapy which will help you make space for a different perspective; I am passionate about relieving the mental, physical, emotional and relational distress client's present with. I mainly get contacted by clients who present with Anxiety, Depression, low mood, Relationship issues, Trauma & Addictions. - Client testimony “As a result of my sessions with Elaine, I’ve made some really positive changes which I wholeheartedly believe I wouldn’t have been capable of without her professional guidance.”

Hello and welcome. I’m here to help you find the inner strengths you need to unblock what’s troubling you and move on with your life. My clients tell me I’m warm, kind and insightful – which is good, because my main aim is to offer a safe, welcoming place where you feel willing and able to consider making changes. Most of us aren’t used to reaching out for professional support. We’re brought up to think asking for help can be a sign of weakness. But whatever you’re facing, working together with a professional therapist can let you see a way forward.

I offer clients a warm, collaborative space to be heard and understood. The therapeutic relationship I aim to create is that of respect, non-judgement and strict confidentiality. This safe foundation allows us to bring clarity and insight to thoughts and feelings, and an environment for exploring positive, lasting change. The pace of the therapy is attuned to individual client needs and experiences.
