Hi Kasia Cole here! I'm a London therapist (over 10 years!) & created the Balance Psychotherapy App. It's for you if: Therapy isn't an option (at the moment). You want to boost your in-between session progress. You're in therapy & crave deeper emotional work. The app is unique! It helps you directly address and balance your emotions - the key to healing! Of course, in-person sessions are always available. Welcome to a world where therapy goes beyond just talking. Here, I combine traditional therapy with powerful techniques like mindfulness and emotional processing to create a journey of healing and transformation.

Relationships can be difficult, miscommunication & misattunement of emotions can create patterns of behaviour that can lead to a lack of connectiveness & blocks to intimancy. This can trigger a fight or flight response & the cycle continues. In therapy you can learn to communicate your care seeking & care giving needs in a clear way & change the relationship to a more secure & attuned base. You'll learn the skills to listen to each other & navigate the ruptures & repairs that are part of all relationships. I will work to provide a safe & non biased space for you to resolve them together & decide the best way forward.

I'm an experienced Counselling Psychologist, Integrative Psychotherapist and EMDR practitioner. I provide a confidential and non-judgemental space to explore whatever is troubling you, at a pace that you feel comfortable with. Therapy is a collaborative process which aims to increase awareness and understanding of your thoughts, emotions and behaviours, and to identify and tackle obstacles that are stopping you from living the life you want to live. Therapy can help to develop and harness the necessary resources in order to make desired changes in your life.

Is life not quite what you expected? Are you having difficulty with relationships, work or family troubles? From time to time we all run into obstacles or feel dissatisfied with life.

Distress comes in many forms, many ways, and many times in life. Sometimes you will need help and support to reflect on the distress and seek not only an understanding of your distress but discover ways of adjusting and coping with it. In the long term, you will want to develop resilience to be able to cope with the distress as it inevitably arises.

Sometimes in life we can be surrounded by people yet feel so alone. When speaking with friends and family you may feel they are not really listening, not realizing they maybe advising, or even competing with your problems. Stress, depression and low self esteem can often make you feel invisible but these feelings are not permanent. Living with shame, anger, fear or sadness can leave you in a dark fog, struggling to find your way through. With help and support your journey may become clearer. I would like to offer you space to talk without feeling judged, pressured or nagged, to experience feeling supported, valued and important.

Our past impacts on our present and it can often be confusing and conflicting in our adult responses to current problems. When we cannot make sense of our own thoughts or responses, when our behaviour troubles us or is repetitive. Within the therapeutic process, control is taken back and the symptomatic behaviour in time can be renegotiated and become less powerful. My training is Psychodynamic but with many years of CPD (continuing professional development) I will adapt my style to what will be most helpful to you and what you bring to the sessions. Psychodynamic therapy involves working with the unconscious.

If you are feeling anxious, depressed, scared or you are struggling with life in general it can be most helpful to talk with a psychotherapist about your concerns and difficulties. We will identify what you need from counselling and work together to achieve your goals and live more positively and joyfully. As a qualified counsellor and psychotherapist with 30 years of experience I work sensitively to enable you to talk about what maybe troubling you. I create a safe and confidential space where you can express your thoughts and feelings without fear or judgement.

As a Counsellor I work in a client led approach empathically catering towards the clients needs and goals. My approach is Psychodynamic that means I can help clients deal with the unresolved issues of their past to possibly make sense with the present. Life can be confusing and scary at times making one feel stuck and lost, much like being in a storm .I can help clients find their way through the storm so that they can eventually achieve some sort of clarity and begin to cope with the challenges of every day life.

I am an experienced counsellor and psychotherapist. I believe that the most important part of therapy is that we build a strong and therapeutic relationship together so that you can feel safe to explore your feelings and concerns. We all have times in our life when we need support and it is not always possible to sort things out with the help of family and friends. I would be there to listen and not judge, in a confidential and caring environment. Counselling can feel daunting but can help to empower you to explore and reflect on ways of making changes and moving forward with your life.

Does your current relationship feel difficult, complicated and stressful? Even though relationships are the cornerstone of our lives, they aren't always easy and can sometimes feel like an endless cycle of misunderstanding, blame and resentment. If your relationship leaves you feeling stressed, lonely and emotionally exhausted, then relationship counselling can be helpful. It can give you a safe space where you can explore couple dynamics and build an intentional relationship that is meaningful and rewarding.

I provide a safe space for you to feel comfortable to open up and explore what is going on for you, in a non judgmental environment that is completely your own. I always do what I feel is best for the client(s). I am an Integrative therapist who works with different approaches to support each client. I believe that each person will find at least one approach that will work best for them. Life has its challenges whether they be expected/unexpected, with therapy we can work through them together. I have worked within the NHS (mental health sector) for many years, working with charities as well as having my own private practice

I aim to establish a safe, non-judgemental space with clients where difficult issues and problems can be explored, free from the demands of the outside world. I have a psychodynamic approach which means I help clients work through the underlying causes at the root of problems to enable them to gain more self-awareness and a different perspective on their life. Also, with a background as a Samaritan volunteer for many years, I have offered emotional support to people from many walks of life suffering from distress caused by a wide range of difficult issues.

Hello and welcome. Counselling helps you understand and make sense of your thoughts and feelings. We will explore what you’re finding difficult, and unpack this further. I offer a safe and confidential space, where you can talk openly, be heard and listened to without judgement. Are you or your teen struggling emotionally? Have you suffered a bereavement, or is anxiety taking control? I can offer you a space where you can begin to express yourself, and process what’s going on for you. Counselling can help you with relationships, communication and self worth, it can help you build self awareness, and in turn help you to make changes.

Sometimes life can seem overwhelming and we can be dealing with something painful. We all have times when we need emotional support. You do not have to struggle alone. Often it is only when we talk to someone unconnected with our lives that we begin to hear what we are really saying and feeling. I offer a safe, unjudgemental and confidential space for you to work through what is troubling you and will support you as you find new ways forward.

Maybe you feel numb and detached from life and everything seems to be foggy like your watching life through a glass window? Maybe you work so hard not to be low all the time, that it has turned into a full time job with no energy for anything else. To make the decision to access the therapy can be emotional process.The Initial Consultation that I offer is the beginning of exploring the issues and seeing whether you would like to work with me. There are many ways of getting stronger, sometimes taking is the best way.
