Liz Gamlen

I currently have availability on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, plus Saturday and Sunday morning

I am a registered member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP). I have a post graduate diploma from the Psychosynthesis Trust , London with many years experience of counselling.

 By listening at depth, I can offer a gentle, compassionate space  where you will be able to explore issues that are causing emotional pain and discomfort, a chance to make sense of your world and to listen to your deeper longings. We're all unique,   there isn't a 'one size fits all', so I offer a variety of approaches to support you in our work together.

 I understand how challenging life events can leave you feeling overwhelmed, or that life is unmanageable. In working together, we can focus on your present experience as well as consider your past, all the while paying attention to the connections between your body, mind and emotions.

I have extensive experience of working as an NHS specialist nurse, mostly with people facing life changing illness. I have gained a deep understanding of the vulnerability experienced at times of crisis when the rug feels pulled out from under you. 

I have a particular interest in how our nervous system informs our thinking , and how this, in turn, informs our story making about our lives. 

I also have experience of working for a low cost counselling service in central London.

Making meaning of your inner world and life experiences in our work together, can enhance your self-awareness and sense of wholeness .

Clients have told me that their sessions have helped them gain insight and understanding, leading to positive change in 6-10 sessions.

Sessions are weekly and 50 minutes long, at the same time each week. 

My practice is  online, and face to face, in ground floor private rooms with off street car parking.

I offer concessionary rates/ low cost counselling, to students, people on low income and older adults
