Therapy and Counselling in E17
If you find yourself reading this, chances are there is something troubling you. 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.
It is not easy finding the right therapy. There is so much information out there and so I hope I can simplify this for you by providing information about the therapy I offer, my practice, my background, my training, theoretical underpinnings, professional interests, areas of expertise and what to expect in terms of the practicalities of our working together.
