About me and my therapy practice
Counselling and Life Coaching with Payal - a pathway to healing, recovery, change and fulfilment.Hello & welcome. My name is Payal and I am a qualified integrative therapist, coach and NLP practitioner. I offer a professional Counselling and Coaching service in the Harrow and London area. I also offer video and telephone sessions.
I have over 15 years clinical experience of providing 1:1 and group counselling sessions and am passionate about my work.
How I Can Help
Emotional challenges are something we all have at some point in our lives, whether we can recognise them or not. Feelings are part of being human and it would be impossible to go through life without having struggles at some point.
o Do you feel depressed and struggle to see a way out?
o Do you experience anxiety and unsure of how to manage this?
o Do you feel overwhelmed with negative thoughts?
o Do you struggle with low self-esteem?
o Have you experienced the loss of a loved one?
o Perhaps events and experiences from your past are making it difficult to move forward?
o You may have experienced physical, emotional, verbal, and or psychological abuse or trauma
o Perhaps there is conflict in your life, work and or relationships?
o Would you like to heal your pain and move forward, so that you can experience a more fulfilling life?
o Are you fed up and wanting change?
Whatever you may be feeling, talking with a qualified professional can help.
How I Work
I work as an integrative counsellor, using person-centred, CBT and psychodynamic approaches in my clinical practice. I am a registered member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP) and abide by the BACP Ethical Framework for the Counselling Professions.
I am committed to offering a safe and confidential space in which you can explore your thoughts and feelings and make sense of your difficulties, without feeling judged. I approach all of my clients with cultural sensitivity and recognise that one size does not fit all.

Why Choose Me
I love what I do. Nothing gives me greater joy than seeing my clients transform and succeed in reaching their goals through our working together. It was my own personal experience of having counselling that motivated me to train as a therapist over 15 years ago. Having always had a desire to help people and experiencing how powerful counselling can be in creating positive change myself, I wanted to professionally train to be able to help others too.
As well as being a qualified counsellor, I am also a certified coach. I can tailor the way I work in order to suit your specific needs and we can discuss this further upon initial consultation.
I believe that everyone has the potential to heal, change and grow towards becoming the best version of themselves. It would be my honour to be with you on your journey of healing, recovery, change and fulfilment. I understand that taking the first step is usually the hardest but please know that the road ahead need not be travelled alone.
I offer a FREE telephone consultation so why not contact me NOW to see how I can help.
A testimonial: “When I first spoke to Payal on the phone, I knew she would be the right therapist for me. She was kind and compassionate and made it really easy to make a booking and prepare for our first session. I had been to therapy a few times in the past but had not experienced any real change.
I am by no means a ‘finished work’ but I have been empowered and inspired to live the life that I desire. I can now counsel myself through (past) negative thoughts or events in a way I couldn’t before my therapy with Payal. Rather than feeling dependent upon her, as I did with previous therapists, I feel equipped to handle situations on my own and even help others. I now believe my life can be what I want it to be!
I recommend Payal to anyone who wants to see real transformation in their life and is ready to do the work that comes with all things that are worth having” (Linda, 45, London).
My first session
The first session is an assessment session during which I will gather some information about you, aim to get an understanding of your difficulties and discuss what could be helpful going forwards. The assessment is a two-way process and also allow you to get a sense of me and how I work and see if I am the right therapist for you. The first session lasts for 1 hour. Ongoing sessions last for 50 minutes.
