Ella Focas

I offer in-person sessions in KT6 Surbiton.

Please contact me if you would like more information about my current availability. 

Life is difficult sometimes and managing thoughts, feelings, or situations without support can be overwhelming. I believe that establishing a safe, trusting and respectful relationship is vital to successful counselling. My aim is to offer you a warm, empathetic, non-judgmental space and relationship that allows you to feel heard, understood, and empowered.

As an integrative-relational counsellor, I use a variety of approaches which allows me to tailor my approach to best support you, your experiences, and your needs. I appreciate the importance of past events, and how these may be impacting you today. By exploring your past, as well as the here and now, I aim to help you gain understanding, empowering you to find your own solutions.

I have a BA (Hons) in Integrative-Relational Counselling, and I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and adhere to their code of ethics, values and principles.

In addition to my private practice, I have been working as a counsellor in a charitable low-cost counselling organisation for a number of years. Prior to becoming a therapist, I gained many years experience in supportive roles and this is where I began to be drawn towards the field of counselling.

I am respectful and mindful of the uniqueness of every individual and you are the expert in your life and feelings. I work with empathy, honesty, kindness, humility, and creativity when appropriate. I offer a warm and compassionate approach where you set the pace and direction of our sessions. I am deeply committed to providing a supportive and non-judgmental space.

I offer short-term and long-term counselling in person (in Surbiton)

I know that seeking support can feel very daunting, and it is important that you find the right counsellor for you. I offer a free 20-minute introductory call to discuss the counselling process, explore your needs and expectations and answer any questions you may have. It's also an opportunity to get a sense of what it might be like to work with me. There is no obligation to proceed with booking a session.

My Practice:

I have a room in Surbiton, just a 5-minute walk from the station. For information on my availability please don’t hesitate to get in contact with me to discuss.
