A poem lovely as a tree."

Carl Rogers
'Hello and thank you for visiting me here, whether you're looking for therapy or art. I would love to help you if you're in sudden crisis or have reached a point of wanting to understand yourself, and your behaviours, better and thus find a more easeful life. This is a brave first step you're taking. I am a BACP qualified Integrative Counsellor and trained Internal Family Systems therapist (IFS) experienced in working with adults, young people and children. I offer private long or short-term IFS therapy or more traditional counselling sessions online or in-person (London SE23) to those aged 18+. I am also available to work in London schools with those younger and currently work in a special school which I love. I am also a budding artist, trained in using the arts in therapy, so if this appeals we can incorporate this into our work. But if this sounds horrifying, we don't need to go there at all. My Integrative training enables me to tailor my approach (always in collaboration with you) to suit your needs and preferences, drawing from various therapeutic models, in addition to IFS, including Attachment Theory, Humanistic & Person-centred, Gestalt, Psychodynamic, Somatic body work and Effortless Mindfulness. I take my continued professional development seriously and continue to add new models and techniques to my therapeutic offering. Please feel free to Contact me if you'd like a free, no obligation, 30 minute consultation.
