About me
Facing tough moments in your life takes courage. Starting therapy might feel a little daunting, but the rewards can be great if you take the risk. I'll create a safe and supportive environment for you to explore at your own pace what matters most to you.
Who am I?
Hi, I'm Joel, a qualified and BACP Registered integrative therapist. My style is warm, friendly and professional.
How can I help you?
I help individuals with a wide range of issues, including anxiety, depression, bereavement/loss, anger, stress, confidence/self-esteem issues, eating disorders and trauma/PTSD. I have extensive experience working with addictions, men's issues, codependency* and relationship issues. I have in-depth knowledge and experience of 12-step recovery.
*Codependency is being overly focused on taking care of others at the expense of one's own happiness, often relying on the approval of others for sense of worth.
Where does therapy happen?
I offer:
- In-person therapy in Clapham, London and Tonbridge, Kent.
- 'Walk & Talk' therapy near Sevenoaks, Tonbridge and Tunbridge Wells. Individuals often feel more connected, relaxed and free to express themselves in natural surroundings.
- Online therapy: Meet me wherever you are via Zoom.
What would we do in therapy?
As an integrative therapist, I use various techniques and approaches to best suit your unique needs and preferences - this may involve developing mindfulness practices, exploring childhood relationships (psychodynamic), examining present-day thought and behavior patterns (cognitive-behavioral), or creative methods like visualizations and art/drawing, among many others.
What would be the benefits of our therapy work?
As well as emotional support, you are likely to increase self-awareness, acquire tools for coping with life’s inevitable challenges, develop emotional resilience, and improve your relationships, enhancing your overall well-being and ability to grow and flourish.
Whatever challenges you are facing, I provide a comfortable, confidential space, which is safe and non-judgmental.
How can coaching help in therapy?
As a certified professional coach, I also offer life coaching. For example, after achieving their therapy goals, some clients value a few sessions of coaching to support them in working towards their future goals and ambitions. There are various other ways to integrate coaching and therapy which we can discuss during our initial chat.
What next?

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.
