You are already enough.
Sometimes, life simply leaves us feeling disconnected from ourselves, uncertain about what comes next, or ready for something to change.
Counselling offers a space to pause, reflect and explore what is happening beneath the surface, with someone alongside you, without judgement.
Counselling and personalised support in Central & South London.
You may not have all the answers yet. That's okay.
Perhaps something has changed.
Perhaps you're struggling with something you've been carrying for a while.
Or perhaps life looks fine from the outside, but something inside you is asking for attention.
Counselling can give you the time and space to slow down, understand yourself more deeply and explore what you want or need for the next chapter of your life.
You don't have to arrive knowing exactly what you need. We can start there.
Counselling and Personalised Support for Individuals
A counsellor with three decades of experience, and a private practice built over twenty years.
For thirty years, I've worked at the heart of human communication, not just what people say, but what they show, what they protect, and what lives quietly beneath the surface, whether conscious or unconscious.
I'm an experienced practitioner who understands the complexity of being human, and I bring a depth of insight that helps people see themselves more clearly than they ever have before.
I am a BACP Accredited Counsellor who is fully insured with Towergate Insurance and have worked across the NHS, local authorities, charities, the private sector, employment assistance programmes, education and internationally.
Meet Angela
BACP Accredited Counsellor
My professional and lived experience has shaped a way of working that is responsive, thoughtful and sensitive to people from diverse and marginalised backgrounds.
I don't believe counselling should be about telling you who you are or what you should do. It is about creating the space for you to better understand yourself, your experiences and what you want for your life.
I understand the complexities of life. I understand external and internal transitions. And I understand the quiet determination it takes to rebuild yourself from the inside out, to show up for your own healing, a conscious commitment to self.
In this space, confusion untangles, clarity emerges naturally, and you begin to move forward with more intention, confidence and self-direction, so you can create the life you want with intention and confidence.
I know that seeking help and support through counselling is often daunting,
but it can often be the bravest next step.
Counselling with me is a
Collaborative, Relational and Holistic Process
There is no one-size-fits-all approach to counselling. Working with me is an exploration of you — your life, your patterns, your past, your present, and the future you're moving toward.
Our work together will be relational, collaborative, holistic, emotionally intelligent and will invite awareness, honesty, and growth. I recognise that every person is unique, so I tailor my approach with compassion, curiosity, and a deep respect for your individuality.
With me, you step into a space where you can be seen, understood, so you can map out a more informed and conscious future for yourself.
This is not just support — it's transformation!
Sometimes life can feel difficult, confusing or simply different
You may be experiencing anxiety, depression, loss, difficulties at work, relationship challenges or the impact of divorce or separation. You may also be navigating a significant transition in your life — including menopause, andropause, changing relationships, intimacy, ageing or simply asking yourself:
“What comes next for me?”
You don't need to be in crisis to seek counseling. Sometimes counselling is about making sense of where you are, understanding yourself differently and deciding where you want to go next. I am here to support your planning and vision around what comes next for you.
IS COUNSELLING CONFIDENTIAL?
Yes, This means information about your participation and what you share in the sessions will remain confidential.
However, there are safety and legal considerations and or exceptions, all of which will be fully discussed in detail.

Frequently Asked Questions
Therapy can often be used as a generic description for all therapies and can also be typically associated with specific approaches.
Regardless, all therapy is intended to play a crucial role in supporting one’s mental health and wellness journey.
Both therapy and counselling involve conversing collaboratively with a qualified professional to understand, make meaning and find effective ways of how best to move forward and or make changes.
All sessions last 50 minutes and the number of sessions are jointly negotiated.
Each person’s therapeutic journey is different, so there is no concrete answer to this question.
The amount of time in therapy is a nuanced process, and it depends entirely on individual needs, experiences, objectives and establishing realistic expectations, so this will vary from person to person.
The length of engagement will be an ongoing discussion, and reviewed intermittently to make sure you are getting what you need.
My aim is always to try and offer an initial appointment within two weeks, from the initial contact.
Then based on our joint availability we can agree dates, times and the frequency of sessions going forward.
Some people may feel unsure or a little nervous about coming to counselling, particularly for the first time. So, getting someone to accompany you to the venue could be supportive.
However, I would suggest you arrange that they meet you after your session and you do something together then and you attend the session alone.
My reason for the above suggestion is that the counselling process is a progressive one, and sessions develop meaning and purpose when you are able to speak freely and confidentiality, without any type of self-censoring that might exist if another person is present in the room with us.
My only exception to this, is when I work with couples.
