Counselling for children aged 8 and upwards, adolescents, and adults. I am accredited by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) as an MBACP Senior Accredited Psychotherapeutic Counsellor and am registered with the UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP). I offer a solution-focused style of counselling, comprising Person-centred, Psychodynamic, Existential phenomenology, with additional experience gained from voluntary work.

I have been able to adapt and evolve the counselling specifically to people with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs). Prices available on application.

Transform your life with EMDR Therapy at 37 Queen Anne Street, London. An adaptive and supportive therapy tailored towards your individual autistic needs.

I have recently acquired new counselling rooms for clients who prefer to have face-to-face counselling sessions. These dedicated spaces have been designed to create an extremely comfortable and relaxed environment, allowing clients to focus on addressing their individual matters with their counsellor.

At the request of a client, parents, or carers of potential clients, I would have to add on travel expenses for this. However, in some cases, I am prepared to work on a sliding scale, depending on a client's financial circumstances. The environment I work from is conducive for people with ASDs.

I also provide training to help facilitate a greater awareness of ASDs. Here are some examples of the themes covered by the workshop:

•    Transition from childhood to adulthood.
•    Diagnosis, late diagnosis and misdiagnosis.
•    Challenging backgrounds, institutionalisation.
•    Developing social skills.
•    Ethnicity.
•    Providing appropriate Counselling and psychotherapy.

Another mode of counselling provided by the service is online video conferencing.
