About me
Practice Information
I provide both online and in-person counselling services in Bromley, Kent. My face-to-face sessions are conveniently situated near Hayes Station, easily accessible via bus routes from both Bromley North and South Rail Stations. For clients who prefer not to attend in person, I offer a flexible and professional online service.
First Session
Prior to our first meeting, I will ask you to fill out a brief assessment form. In our initial session, we will delve into the challenges you are experiencing, your therapeutic goals, and whether short-term or long-term therapy is the best fit for you. This session also serves as an opportunity for us to evaluate our compatibility, as a strong therapeutic relationship is fundamental to effective progress.
Areas of Focus
I assist clients with a diverse array of issues, including:
- Anxiety, Depression, and Self-Esteem: Guiding you through feelings of overwhelm, sadness, or self-doubt.
- Bereavement and Loss: Providing support during grief and significant life transitions.
- Relationship Difficulties: Addressing conflicts, communication challenges, and relational patterns.
- Life Transitions: Offering guidance through career changes, relocations, or other major life events.
- Women's Health: Concentrating on pregnancy, infertility, menopause, and identity-related issues.
- Stress and Trauma: Assisting in stress management and healing from past traumas.
Therapeutic Approaches
As an integrative counsellor, I utilise a variety of therapeutic models, enabling me to tailor my approach to meet each client's unique needs. These include:
- Humanistic Therapy: Emphasising self-growth, personal accountability, and human potential.
- Person-Centred Therapy: Fostering a compassionate and empathetic environment for self-discovery.
- Psychodynamic Therapy: Investigating unconscious processes and their influence on current behaviours.
- Cognitive-Behavioural Approach: Assisting you in altering unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours.
- Existential Therapy: Exploring life's meaning, purpose, and your connection to the world.
- Relational Therapy: Focusing on interpersonal dynamics and utilising the therapeutic relationship as a healing tool.
This integrative approach allows for adaptability, drawing on various techniques to effectively address your concerns.
What to Expect from Therapy
Therapy can lead to a wide range of beneficial outcomes, such as:
- Increased Self-Awareness: Gaining profound insights into your thoughts, emotions, and behaviours.
- Improved Emotional Well-Being: Developing a calmer, more compassionate relationship with yourself.
- Clarity on Life Challenges: Identifying the underlying causes of your difficulties and formulating strategies to tackle them.
- Effective Coping Strategies: Acquiring practical tools to manage stress, anxiety, and life transitions.
- Reframing the Past: Gaining perspective on past experiences and diminishing their impact on your present life.
- Increased Confidence: Enhancing self-belief and clarity regarding your personal and professional objectives.
Whether you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or are simply seeking personal growth, therapy can offer the support and tools necessary for creating meaningful, positive changes in your life.
My Approach
I am profoundly committed to understanding how early life experiences and the body-mind connection influence our perceptions of ourselves and our surroundings. In our sessions, we will explore not only your thoughts and emotions but also the physical manifestations of stress and trauma. This holistic approach cultivates a deeper understanding of your inner world and promotes healing on both emotional and physical levels.
My practice is rooted in empathy, compassion, and an authentic desire to facilitate your growth and healing. Whatever challenges you are facing, I am here to provide the support and guidance necessary for you to move forward.
If you are ready to take the next step in exploring your emotions and enhancing your well-being, I encourage you to reach out. Together, we can work towards the clarity, relief, and positive transformation you are seeking.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a Level 6 qualified Integrative Counsellor and BACP Registered Member
409495 MBACP
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.
