About me
Are you concerned for your emotional wellbeing? Or the wellbeing of another? Welcome: my name is Angela, I am an experienced counsellor and I invite you to explore whatever is on your mind.
I work with clients who are struggling with anxiety or low self esteem for various reasons including: past and present relationships / work issues & medical concerns. Initially, our sessions will be focused on exploring the issues that need addressing and create a plan that enables you to get the most out of life. Generally most clients see an improved wellbeing after a few session's.
Everyone’s story is unique. Life’s experiences can leave a big impact resulting in us feeling emotionally or mentally drained. Exploration of these' experiences can help you to make sense of what has happened and help you to feel better.
I believe counselling needs to take place in a calm and supportive environment. This enables you to work through difficult thoughts & emotions in an open and honest way. Where appropriate, I may introduce CBT tools and strategies to help you build resilience that can help you to manage life more effectively and happily, even after our sessions have finished.
I work with adults and teens from all backgrounds, genders & ethnicities
I appreciate reaching out can be difficult. To help, I offer a free, no obligation 15-minute telephone/online consultation session to find out a bit more about you and for you to get to know me, to see if I’m the best fit for you.

Sessions are 50 minutes at a time.

Training, qualifications & experience

I’m a member of the BACP (British Association of Counsellors & Psychotherapists) adhering to their ethics & standards.
My practice is based in west London. I have over 20 years business experience as an entrepreneur and director both of which are helpful when working with work related issues.

Member organisations

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.
Accredited register membership

The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.

How I work
I would like to think my family & friends would describe me as happy, honest, kind, loyal & empathetic. I want clients to feel that I am approachable and feel listened to during their time with me.
Counselling is an opportunity to discuss situations and feelings you may not be able to discuss with friends or family.
Everyone’s story is unique. Life’s experiences can leave a big impact resulting in us feeling emotionally or mentally drained. Exploration of these' experiences can help you to make sense of what has happened and help you to feel better.
I believe counselling needs to take place in the safe, supportive and holding environment where you can work through difficult thoughts & emotions in an open and honest way. Where appropriate, I may introduce tools and strategies to help you build resilience that can help you to manage life more effectively and happily
The aim of our sessions is to help you explore your own story. I work with a range of clients from all backgrounds from the ages of 13 to 113.
