Psychotherapy and Counselling generally involve talking to another person who is trained to listen and think in a sensitive and particular way. Psychodynamic Counselling is rooted in psychoanalytic theory and aims to provide a neutral, consistent and safe place in order to explore, process and understand better how we behave, the underlying issues and what motivates us, thus enabling change to take place in our lives.
It is not advice giving but can help you to gain insight into patterns of behaviour often rooted in childhood experiences, but which remain unconscious and can leave you feeling stuck in your life, often blocking achievement or fulfilling relationships or preventing you from having a more grounded sense of self and identity.
If you would like to find out more please visit the Psychodynamic Counselling page.
My therapy practice is based within a few minutes walk of Dalston Junction, Dalston Kingsland and Haggerston Stations and is within easy reach of The City of London, Barbican, Holborn, Islington, Shoreditch, Spittlefields, Clerkenwell, Smithfields, Stoke Newington, London Bridge, South Bank and Southwark and Canary Wharf.
I also offer appointments online.
If you would like to know more please call or send me an email so we can talk briefly about what you would like and if appropriate, arrange an initial meeting. this is without commitment but is simply to give a sense of how we might work together and importantly, for you to see if I am the right person for you. Everything will be treated with utmost confidence.
I will usually offer you an initial consultation consisting of one or two appointments. These meetings will last 50 minutes. If we decide it is appropriate to continue meeting then we would meet each week for 50 minutes on a mutually agreed day and time. We can also consider other alternatives, if it is felt that counselling/therapy does not fit your needs at this particular time.
My fee can be discussed when we meet.
Feel free to contact me if you have any questions about how therapy works, or to arrange an initial assessment appointment. This enables us to discuss the reasons you are thinking of coming to therapy, whether it could be helpful for you and whether I am the right therapist to help.
You can also call me on 07816914070 if you would prefer to leave a message or speak to me first. I am happy to discuss any queries or questions you may have prior to arranging an initial appointment.
All enquires are usually answered within 24 hours, and all contact is strictly confidential and uses secure phone and email services.
