I'm Olivia, a professional Therapist helping Couples & Individuals across the UK & abroad with relationship difficulties, anxiety, depression & low self-esteem. I offer a free online consultation to talk through your hopes for therapy.

Relationships are a special area of interest as they form such a large part of our life & dictate so much about how we feel about ourselves. I also work frequently with new parents. The early days of having a baby & beyond into childhood, can be a time of immense joy but also of great stress & shifting dynamics within our relationships & careers. Navigating this new landscape can be challenging. If you would like to know more about how I work with parents & couples do get in touch. 

Equally, you may be struggling with the demands of life because you don't feel at ease within yourself. This might be accompanied by unhappiness, despair or worry and stress that has become unmanageable.

You might know things are not right because:

*You are anxious & preoccupied with your thoughts.

*Your moods & energy levels are low.

*You have a sense of emptiness or feel a deep loneliness.

*Life feels stressful, demanding or unsatisfying.

*Your relationships are a source of pain & disappointment.

*Your self-esteem is low.

* You feel either hyper-vigilant or detached from your feelings.

You are not alone if you do feel this way, there are many reasons why life might feel difficult right now: your circumstances, fears around global events, trauma, a difficult or damaging childhood, hurtful relationships or daily life struggles can really take their toll. Sometimes we don't know why we feel the way we do, we just know it hurts.

 Counselling & psychotherapy can support you to get the most out of life by helping with emotional regulation, stress management, mood and motivation and relief from anxiety and tension. The most important part of therapy is a having a safe space to explore and untangle your experiences.  

I WORK WITH: Anxiety, fear and panic. Grief & loss. Depression, low mood, feeling without hope or motivation. Relationships- divorce, infidelity, conflict and family tensions. Low Self-Esteem. Problematic coping mechanism such as excessive drinking and over-eating.

How I work: I work online via Zoom video call. I undertook specific training in order to deliver effective therapy at a time of great need, in order that I could meet with people without the restrictions of location and travel. My Clients and I have found this way of meeting and sharing convenient, safe, comfortable and highly effective. If you would like to meet to experience this way of engaging in therapy, I offer a free 20-minute Consultation.

I offer Individual Therapy (50-minute sessions) £55. Single Session Therapy/intensive solution-focussed (90-minutes) £80 and Couples Therapy (60-minutes) £65. Therapy for trainee Therapists 50-minutes £45. For more details about these services, please visit my website.

The Therapy: I work using a variety of approaches tailored to your needs and personality. These include, Gestalt Therapy, Transactional Analysis, Internal Family Systems, Attachment & CBT. Gestalt focusses on our here & now experience, in mind & body, drawing together our past hurts & our fears for the future, bringing into awareness our 'stuckness' & repeating patterns of thought & behaviour. It explores our learned ways of coping that may no longer be useful to us.

Internal Family Systems is a fascinating look at our internal world, the variety of 'Parts' that help or hinder us and how coming to know them more fully helps us to understand what is is to be us and how to become more fully who we want to be.

Transactional Analysis is a psychoanalytic look at how we develop throughout our lives and the messages we receive that shape our self perception and communication.

Attachment Theory underpins our style of relating to others and is crucial in relationship work.

I offer a free 20-minute online consultation to talk through your hopes for therapy, explore how I work and look at our availability. 

You then have the option to book in right away or go and take some time to digest and decide at your leisure how you would like to proceed.

Once you have decided to get in touch, we can arrange a mutually convenient time for an initial 20-minute consultation. This is free of charge and provides an opportunity to begin to get to know one another, to look at what has bought you to seek therapy and is a time for you to decide if I am the right counsellor for you.

 Subsequent Video or Telephone sessions are charged at £55 per session. I have some concessions available at a reduced rate of £45 for Counselling and Psychotherapy Students. Intensive 90-minute, solution-focussed therapy is £80

Availability: I realise that life can be busy and unpredictable and so aim to be as flexible as possible. Appointments can be made singularly, in blocks or on a flexible basis as we go along.
