COUNSELLING AND SUPERVISION IN LONDON

INDIVIDUAL AND COUPLE COUNSELLING

Life can bring a lot of ups, downs and changes. Some are expected and some are unexpected. Often we put our life on hold, continue the same old patterns and behaviours, and life can seem hard.

Counselling and psychotherapy is a safe space for anyone who needs support to help cope with the demands of life. Counselling will help you find new ways to balance your feelings and clarify your needs, giving you strategies you can maintain to change.

It is really important that you feel comfortable to talk to your counsellor, who listens to you in confidence and hears your concerns without judgements. Counselling is a professional relationship between two people, the client and therapist.  The aim of counselling is to support you in finding resourceful ways to understanding and solving the difficulty you are experiencing.

People often seek counselling to help with:

• Addictions to drugs, alcohol or other destructive behaviours
• Experiences guilt and helplessness
• Feelings of fatigue, loss of energy and irritability
• Pessimistic or having negative thoughts
• Real or perceived loss of talents, abilities and skills
• Financial problems and concerns
• Persistent sad, anxious or empty feelings
• Loss of appetite or overeating
• Loss of interest in hobbies and activities
• Starting a new family, living abroad or finding a new job/career
• Taking sexual risks, coming out or questioning your sexual identity
• Thoughts of suicide, death and attempts at suicide
• Unable to control emotional feelings
• Inability to sleep or oversleeping
• Worries about health, age or plans of retirement.
  

Through counselling much of our life distress, fatigue, loneliness and inner emptiness can be eliminated when deeper understanding of how to live fruitfully with ourselves is achieved.

This understanding helps:

• To meet each others needs when in a couple relationship or with relationships at work
• It helps parents create a childhood for their own children that are free of the attitudes that add to future problems
• Clarifies the root causes of emotional disturbances and a method of dealing with them.

As an Integrative therapist, I know my clients needs have changed since I first started Counselling and Therapy.  Most people are time limited and are looking for lasting positive change quickly and effectively.  The integrative approach allows me to work on a short or on a long term basis. It gives me the flexibility to work with my clients individuality and learning styles and make the therapy tailored to each persons needs.

Clients come to see me for many different reasons such as:

• Achieve clarity and purpose in life
• Build the confidence to make decisions and increase self esteem
• Change old habits and behaviours
• Control the increasing bouts of depression and panic attacks
• Cope without medication, substance abuse or coming off treatments
• Gain control of life situations
• Get back to the person before the incident happened
• Learn strategies to sustain positively
• Stop sabotaging opportunities in life
• Stop the uncontrolled emotions from ruining relationships
• Take control of life without the addiction taking control of you.
  

My aim is to help you cope with issues, to regain control of your life, confront destructive patterns and make lasting life changes. I use a number of therapeutic approaches from: Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Brief Solution Focused Therapy (BSFT), Gestalt Therapy, Psychodynamic, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT) and useful Mindfulness techniques to help support my clients..

In helping and supporting you in your decisions, you may at times be given homework between sessions to enhance the work you do in our sessions and fast track the results you experience.

If you feel counselling may help you, or you would like more information, you can call 07985 387021 or email me. Everything we discuss is in complete confidence.

SUPERVISION

Individual supervision can take place once a week, fortnightly or once a month.  The sessions can be from one hour to an hour and half or more as necesssary  Any pending worries, challenges or ethical issues that may come up for you, you can have phone support between sessions.
