About me and my therapy practice
Welcome to ReDiscover & Bloom Therapy which is all about self-discovery and focusing on you!
Are you struggling right now? Would you like to unravel the thoughts and feelings you are having so that you can live a better life. Making changes to your life is not easy, it takes courage and you have taken the first step.
I an Integrative Counsellor/Therapist and specialise in working with individuals and couples (including different relationship dynamics such as parents and their adult child). I work with a wide range of issues including anxiety, stress, depression, trauma, relationship issues such as conflict, infidelity and betrayal, bereavement, grief and loss, trauma, anger management, parenting, planned and unplanned pregnancy, fertility issues, miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy, menopause and dementia.
My area of expertise also includes working with neurodivergent clients in particular ADHD, Autism and Dyslexia).
Inclusivity is at the heart of my practice and I work with clients from different walks of life regardless of your ethnicity, religion, gender, disability or sexual orientation.
I previously worked for an organisation in the city of London working with loss, unplanned pregnancy, antenatal/postnatal depression, fertility and parenting issues and am an accredited pregnancy and infant loss practitioner.
Sometimes life can feel like an emotional rollercoaster which affects not only the mind but the body. As a consequence, you may be left feeling detached from your sense of self and relationships, experiencing triggers or unhelpful thoughts.
My theoretical approach is integrative as I believe one glove does not fit all and I will tailor my approach according to your needs. This involves working together to obtain a deep understanding of your concerns and what works for you. When words are not enough, we work collaboratively using a creative and holistic approach that is appropriate for you and your situation which will help you to heal and accomplish your goals.
Practice description
I am passionate about supporting people and will always create a warm, friendly, professional, safe, confidential and non-judgmental space. This will allow us to explore what has brought you to therapy and how I can help you.
I am experienced at working with resistance and those who feel stuck and do not know where to start to tell their story. Facing your fears and connecting with what is happening in your life can be a scary experience and I will help you to feel at ease to sit and talk through your problems at your own pace.
There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.
Maya Angelou, "I know why the caged bird sings."
Sometimes it can be easier to be kind to others than ourselves. and being compassionate and gentle to yourself and investing in your health is a big step. I will support you on your journey of reflection to grow and flourish by helping you to work through your difficulties and recognise your strengths. By exploring different therapeutic interventions this will help you to gain clarity, acceptance, self-awareness and improve your overall wellbeing.
Some of the difficulties I help clients with:
• Are you struggling to cope and make sense of what is going on for you?
• Do you have flashbacks from the trauma that you have experienced?
• Has the breakdown of your relationship left you feeling bewildered?
• Would you like to rebuild your relationship with your adult child/parent?
• Do you feel unheard and judged by other people?
• Are you feeling anxious, low in mood or experiencing sleepless nights and would like to control those unhelpful thoughts?
•Do you find difficult to control sudden outbursts of anger?
• Would you like to discuss a diagnosis e.g. ADHD, cancer, dementia, infertility?
• Are you trying to come to terms with the loss of your identity, relative, job or memory loss?
• Do you find it difficult to make new friends and feel isolated?
• Are you struggling to conceive, connect with your pregnancy or bond with your baby?
 
 
My first session
I completely understand that it is important to find a therapist that you are able to build a good rapport with and that they are experienced to work with the difficulties that you would like to work through.
I work with clients short and long-term and face-to-face, online and on the telephone. Sessions are normally 50 minutes and we can discuss the frequency and timing of our sessions. However, I will always try to accommodate as best as I can.
Once you are happy to go proceed, our first session will involve an assessment and we will complete this during the session. This session will allow us to explore what you would like to work on and what you hope to achieve from our sessions.
At the end of our work together, I can provide a wellness/wellbeing information pack to support you as you continue your journey outside of our sessions.
My consulting room is located in the city of London opposite Liverpool Street Train Station (close to a number of mainline train and tube stations which are all within walking distance from Moorgate, Bank, Aldgate and Shoreditch). I also offer online (via secure video platform 'zoom' and 'whereby') and telephone sessions to clients across the UK.
