Ann Barbara Thompson

I offer professional, confidential non-judgmental counselling and therapy to men and women, individuals and couples in North London. Conveniently located close to the tube and bus station at Turnpike Lane, I am easily accessible for clients in Wood Green, Tottenham, Hornsey and Muswell Hill. My practice is inclusive to all, as regards to sex, sexual orientation, race, culture and disability. I also offer special rates to counselling students and someconcessions for those on low-income.

People are drawn to therapy for many reasons, such as when one's life has been turned upside down by traumatic events, including the breakdown of a relationship; the loss of a job, domestic violence, sexual abuse, or a bereavement. There are those who are having difficulties with making a major decision, or have lost purpose in their lives; or are approaching a major life event such as; ageing, marriage, divorce, dramatic death or coming out. Mental and physical health issues including addictions and addictive behaviours, physical illnesses, can be relieved through therapy. Counselling also offers us the opportunity to simply understand ourselves better. You do not need to be unhappy to access therapy and counselling.

My counselling and therapy practice is focused on you the client, and as an integrative counsellor I will work with you using a variety of theoretical modalities and creative approaches. This includes Mindfulness, CBT Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, Psychodynamic, Systemic, TA, Gestalt, Art Therapy Existential, and Transpersonal approaches.

My fee is £50 for a 50mins session. £60 for couples.
First assessment session £40
I can sometimes offer consessions for students and those on a low income, dependent on assessment.
I offer long and short-term therapy face-to-face. Also Telephone counselling, Zoom,  Skype,  and Teams. 

    I am happy to answer any questions by text, phone or email or in person during our first session.
