About me

Eltham Counselling is an established counselling and psychotherapy practice in the borough of Greenwich, serving the local community.

Trusted since 2014, the practice is led by experienced and accredited therapists who offer thoughtful, professional support to individuals and couples.

The practice is recognised by private health insurers, including AXA and WPA.

We offer therapy to couples and individuals in person or online.

Eltham Counselling and Psychotherapy accepts referrals from GPs, Health Insurers, Psychiatrists and self-referrals.

HOW TO GET STARTED:

  • Please call or email to arrange a free zoom/telephone consultation.
  • In this meeting we will discuss how Eltham Counselling and Psychotherapy can help you with the issues you wish to address.
  • If you are comfortable we agree a time and day for a full therapy session. 

Whether you’re feeling anxious, low or stuck, speaking with one of our skilled counsellors can help you better understand and face the challenges in your life.

Our therapy sessions provide a safe, non-judgmental space to talk openly about your relationships and help you to make sense of them.

We offer support around emotional difficulties related to loss, bereavement, life changes, trauma, identity, self-esteem, and challenges in the workplace.

Member organisations

Registered / Accredited

Registered / Accredited

Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
