Counselling in North London

Welcome to my counselling website.
I am an integrative counsellor and work within a small practice in Crouch End, London N8. This is within easy reach of all areas in Haringey, including Hornsey, Muswell Hill, Finsbury Park, Wood Green and Turnpike Lane.

Finding a counsellor or psychotherapist can feel daunting. I hope that this site will offer some useful basic information, and help you decide whether I could be the right counsellor for you.

Please phone or email me if you have any questions. All telephone conversations and emails are confidential.


How I work: Integrative Counselling
There are many different approaches to counselling and psychotherapy. If you would like to read the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy's brief overview of theoretical approaches, please click here.

My counselling approach is integrative.
Integrative counselling acknowledges that there is no single way of working that can encompass the diversity of human experience.
I use ideas and insights from psychodynamic and humanistic therapy approaches and work with these flexibly, according to each individual’s needs. Your personality, cultural background, life experience and reasons for seeking counselling will be taken into account.
For problems such as acute anxiety or post traumatic stress, ideas from cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) may also be useful. I sometimes integrate these into a broader approach when appropriate.

Recent research suggests that the quality of the relationship between counsellor and client is the most important healing factor, over and above any particular theoretical approach or technique.

Whatever your reasons for starting counselling, developing a sound and trusting therapeutic relationship will be central to our work.
