East Dulwich Counselling
I am a BACP-accredited counsellor with over 10 years of experience in helping clients resolve emotional difficulties, and am now offering EMDR for attachment issues, phobias and one-off traumatic events
What I Offer
Counselling
Counselling can help with a variety of difficulties including anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and relationship issues. Our thoughts, feelings and behaviour can become stuck in old patterns which may once have served a purpose in our lives but which may now be holding us back.
By identifying our thoughts and feelings, and making sense of our behaviour, we can make connections between the past and the present and understand ourselves better. With greater self-awareness, we have more freedom to make choices about our lives that really benefit us.
By offering a safe, honest and non-judgmental environment, I aim to help you discover your own inner resources and strengths so that you can experience positive change in your life.
I am an integrative counsellor, drawing on a variety of therapeutic techniques, including humanistic and psychodynamic approaches.
EMDR
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused approach aimed at healing attachment wounds, phobias, and one-off traumatic events.
It helps process childhood experiences and the negative beliefs about ourselves that stem from these events by targeting the root memories and emotional responses stored in the nervous system.
Through structured sessions, clients can reprocess painful memories and question fixed beliefs they hold about themselves to strengthen emotional resilience and form healthier ways of relating to themselves and others.
EMDR can help reduce the intense fear associated with phobias. By targeting the early memories or experiences that may have triggered the phobia, EMDR helps the brain reprocess those memories in a safe and manageable way.
EMDR can help people recover from one-off traumas such as car accidents, assaults or medical emergencies.
