I am an experienced psychotherapist/counsellor and have worked for over 20 years in the NHS, charitable & corporate sectors and in private practice. I offer face to face counselling & psychotherapy at my practice in Archway, North London. I also offer online counselling via Skype and on the phone. I provide a confidential and secure environment where you can explore your thoughts and feelings.I have lived abroad and worked with people from diverse communities. Clients from all backgrounds and sexual orientations are welcome to my practice and I strive to provide a service which meets the needs of each individual. My mother tongue is English and I can counsel in Spanish if required.As your counsellor, I will engage with you as a whole person rather than a set of symptoms. Perhaps you have had a bereavement, or you are low in mood, feeling anxious, having difficulties with relationships, issues around your sexuality, problems at work or you're facing a life transition. Whatever your experience, my aim is to support you to make changes or come to terms with things that cannot be changed, to live more fully and authentically. Rather than being troubled by a specific issue you may be feeling generally dissatisfied - a sense that something is missing in your life. Counselling can help you to explore what is holding you back, reignite your motivation and regain a sense of purpose with the confidence that you are directing your own journey rather than merely responding to external forces and pressures.I am an accredited and registered member of the regulating body, British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. I am fully insured and am supervised in accordance with their guidelines, I adhere to their Ethical Framework for Good Practice in Counselling & Psychotherapy and to their complaints procedure. I am a Bupa recognised Mental Health and Wellbeing Therapist.
