Counselling &amp; Therapy in Highbury, Dalston &amp; Online - Supporting Individuals &amp; Couples I offer in-person therapy at Highbury and Dalston, and online sessions for clients across the UK. I also work with couples and relationships, offering a space to improve communication, explore recurring conflicts, and reconnect with one another.As an integrative therapist, I draw from several therapeutic approaches and tailor our sessions to suit your unique needs. My work is grounded in Person-Centred Therapy, which means I place great importance on the relationship we build together. I aim to offer a warm, non-judgmental presence where you can explore whatever is on your mind at your own pace. You set the agenda, and I'll work alongside you to reflect, understand, and move forward.I also draw on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to help you identify and shift unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns. This can be particularly useful if you're feeling stuck, anxious, or caught in cycles of self-criticism. Together, we might explore the beliefs you hold about yourself, others, or the world and how those beliefs influence how you feel and act.From a Psychodynamic perspective, I may help you explore how early relationships and past experiences shape your present-day responses. Sometimes, patterns that made sense in childhood or during difficult times become unconscious habits that no longer serve us. Bringing these into awareness can deepen self-understanding and support lasting change.I incorporate Existential Therapy when clients are grappling with big life questions around purpose, identity, or choice. This approach invites reflection on your values and choices and what living authentically means for you.I also draw from Gestalt Therapy, a creative and experiential approach that focuses on what's happening in the here and now. This might mean paying attention to body sensations, tone of voice, or what's unfolding between us in the session. At times, we may facilitate conversations between conflicting parts of yourself, helping to bring clarity and understanding to inner tensions.Sessions may vary in focus depending on what you bring each week. Some may feel more reflective and exploratory, others more structured or goal-oriented. My intention is always to meet you where you are and respond to what's most helpful in the moment.I work with both individuals and couples and welcome clients from all backgrounds and identities. My practice is LGBTQ+ affirming and trauma-informed, and I aim to create a therapeutic space where all parts of you are welcome - including those that may feel conflicted, hidden, or uncertain.Fees: Individual therapy: £70 per session Couples therapy: £90 per sessionOnline Fees: Individual therapy: £60 per session Couples therapy: £80 per sessionLocations: I work from therapy rooms in Highbury and Dalston, and I am potentially available in Haggerston. I also offer online sessions throughout the week.If you're interested in working together, feel free to get in touch to arrange an initial consultation and see if it feels like a good fit.
