Counselling, Psychotherapy, and Supervision, in Central London and Kingston upon Thames
Welcome. I offer counselling and psychotherapy to adults experiencing a range of emotional difficulties. I have consulting rooms in Central London (Holborn) and in Kingston upon Thames offering Counselling and Psychotherapy.
People come to counselling with a wide range of personal, emotional and relationship difficulties. There are times in many people's lives when they feel unable to cope. Exploring these feelings and difficulties, and understanding conflicts can be helpful so that you can deal with hurts that are influencing how you react to situations. Together we will try and understand difficulties including unresolved feelings and trauma from the past, painful conflicts in the present, or worries about the future, which may leave you unable to change.
Counselling and Psychotherapy provides a safe place to explore your thoughts and feelings. It is not easy to see a counsellor for the first time, and it is not unusual to feel hesitant about sharing personal information.
Counselling or psychotherapy is appropriate for anyone who is interested in exploring their inner thoughts and feelings and gaining greater self understanding.
There is an opportunity through the relationship with the counsellor to think together about some of the difficulties you are experiencing. A counsellor does not give advice, but can help to understand some of the more unconscious "hidden" feelings that are preventing you from from being able to change.
Counselling or Psychotherapy is also helpful for increasing your potential, living more creatively, and overcoming blocks to success. It is appropriate for anyone who is interested in exploring their inner thoughts and feelings and gaining greater self understanding.
I offer counselling for:
- individual and couples
- short term focused counselling and psychotherapy
- open-ended psychotherapy and counselling (in which there is no set end date, but therapy continues for as long as necessary).
- support for organisations including employee counselling, trauma, critical incident processing and support, life coaching, and training including stress management, and assertiveness.
- supervision for Counsellors, Psychotherapists, and Health Professionals.

The Foundation for Psychotherapy and Counselling is a professional body with a strict code of ethics and a complaints procedure. This ensures the highest standard of professional practice.
