Attachment-based Therapy and Counselling in E17
There may be a specific problem you wish to explore or perhaps you just have a vague feeling that something is not quite right in your life just now. Whatever the reason, I offer a free no-obligation phone or Zoom conversation for us to discuss how we can help you have a better life, so please do get in touch.
This Is Your Time.
As an attachment based therapist, I see every day the courage people have in stepping forward and talking about some of the difficult struggles in their lives. Being heard, understood and truly seen are some of the most important requisites for therapeutic growth but what does this really mean to you? What would someone have to do or say to help you feel truly understood and met in order that you could feel therapy is working?
These can be important questions to think about when looking for a potential therapist. Does the initial encounter feel ‘right’? I offer two initial no obligation meetings in order to allow you to intuite and assess whether therapy with me might be right for you?
I am a UKCP-registered attachment-based psychoanalytic psychotherapist. I have twenty years experience working as an attachment-based psychotherapist in Walthamstow, North East London with adults in individual one-to-one therapy. I am also a supervisor, teacher, lecturer and training therapist. I offer therapy face-to-face in person at my practice or on the telephone and via encrypted video-conferencing facilities. Some of the areas in which I have worked in the past are listed below.
- Romantic relationship difficulties.
- Difficulty with sibling relationships.
- Stress with friendships.
- Workplace stress, including difficulties with colleagues, redundancy, finding work and interview stress.
- Mid-life existential crises.
- Menopause
- Big lifestage-related changes such as retirement, having children, moving home.
- Feeling ‘stuck’ and not knowing how to move forward.
- Lack of confidence, and shame about oneself.
- Being different and feeling marginalised or affected by said difference.
- Historical bullying and abuse.
- Issues associated with gender and sexuality.
- Pregnancy, fertility difficulties, IVF and stillbirth.
- Relationships with the body, body-confidence and shame.
- Issues associated with ageing, including bereavement, losing friends and loved-ones, frailty in the body, retiring from work or negotiating the role of being a grandparent.
