Dorothy Royal

Do you need some emotional support and would like to talk in confidence to an experienced therapist who will understand and help with whatever is troubling you? My private practice is near Harrow-on-the-Hill station, and since 2005 I have worked with individuals or couples faced with all kinds of difficulties and life issues.

I work in a frank and open-minded way, with an integrative approach that embraces the person-centred philosophy at the core. I believe that a sincere trusting relationship is key to effective therapy, and provide a safe space where it is possible to explore thoughts, feelings and past experiences. Together, we can examine current difficulties and look for positive ways to move forward.

I can offer flexibility around the timing and frequency of sessions, but usually one hour per week, on a set day, is standard. Clients often ask me how many sessions they should have, but as everyone’s journey is unique, I commit to whatever each client needs or chooses, trusting that each individual knows what will work best for them.

I offer concessional rates for trainee counsellors and unemployed clients.

Please feel free to call me if you would like to discuss anything, or email for further information.
