My name is Steph and I know that choosing a counsellor can be a daunting experience and it is important to feel reassured and to be able to feel you can connect with your counsellor. Here is a little bit about me, and who I am.I am a down to earth, fun and quirky person. I see the best in people and understand that we have all come from different places in life, for this sometimes we are judged or treated differently. I was born in the south and have since moved to Northumberland. I love the area, the people and find the atmosphere and sea very calming. I enjoy walking my dogs on the beach, arts and crafts, reading and coffee!I strive to provide a safe and nurturing space for individuals to explore their mental health and well-being. I use an integrated counselling approach which combines various therapeutic techniques to support a journey towards healing and self-discovery. An integrative counselling approach means you are the centre of your journey. It is mainly a person centered approach with the use of other techniques from various modalities, these help to broaden the way in which we can explore your thoughts, worries and emotions. Working integratively is beneficial as there is no ‘one box fits all’ element with counselling as we are all different and unique, being integrative makes counselling adaptable and suitable for everyone.I am a highly skilled and experienced integrative counsellor, specialising in working with adults and adolescents with anxiety, depression, abuse, and trauma. Through my combined integrative approach, I am compassionate and can build trusting, strong and supportive relationships with my clients, supporting them through their journey of development and growth. Using an integrative approach, I combine a person centred therapy with CBT, Psychodynamic, Gestalt and Transactional Analysis modalities. Together these provide a practical problem-solving approach and puts the client at the centre of their journey of overcoming issues. The focus of our work together is to identify issues, look at practical steps and strategies, and to change negative patterns in thinking and behaviour. My goal is for my clients to be autonomous and achieve their own personal and professional goals, including their mental health, wellbeing and quality of life. I enable my clients to feel relaxed and able to explore their issues, thoughts and emotions without feeling judged enabling them to explore their thoughts and feelings, working towards positive and long-term growth.I have personal and professional experience of ADHD and autism and understand the unique challenges that can impact day to day living, varying from struggles with time management, focussing and attention. I can adapt sessions and incorporate different skills and tools into the sessions to aid the client and to help the client develop skills to cope with their thoughts, emotions and improvement in relationships that can work for them and their unique ability.I have a deep understanding of trauma, including childhood trauma, sexual abuse, domestic violence, PTSD and working with a combination of deep issues. I can work with visualisation techniques, grounding methods, skills to help with panic attacks and disassociation. I recognise that it can be sometimes nerve-wracking and embarrassing to talk about past or current trauma, but I always remain non-judgemental, open and welcoming.I have worked within the charity support sector for 10 years. I have gained lots of experience providing helpline support and as a counsellor. I have many skills and I have worked with many differnt types of people, genders and circumstances. Here is a small example of what I can work with:AnxietyDepressionGriefAngerSexual violence and abuseChild abuseIntimacy issuesAutism/ADHD/NeurodivergenceLGBTQ+Self harm/SuicideLong term health conditionsChronic painMigraineI am a qualified integrative counsellor. I am registered with and an individual member of the BACP. I adhere to and follow the BACP ethical framework at all times. I have regular supervision with a qualified supervisor to ensure that I remain up to date, ethical and to look after my own mental health.

Designations: BA (Hons), MA Art Psychotherapy

Hello, I’m Lola, a HCPC-registered Art Psychotherapist and a neurodivergent practitioner based in South West London.I offer creative, relational and neurodivergent-affirming Art Psychotherapy for children, young people and adults. My practice is grounded in the belief that therapy should adapt to the individual, rather than expecting people to adapt to therapy.I work collaboratively with autistic, ADHD, AuDHD and other neurodivergent people, as well as those exploring neurodivergence or receiving a diagnosis later in life. I also support people experiencing anxiety, burnout, masking, emotional regulation difficulties, trauma, disability, identity exploration and life transitions.Art Therapy does not rely solely on talking. Sessions can include creative materials, visual expression, sensory exploration, movement, reflection or conversation, depending on what feels most comfortable and accessible for you. There is no expectation to be artistic or to communicate in any particular way.My approach is trauma-informed, relational and psychodynamically informed, while remaining flexible to each person’s communication style, sensory preferences and lived experience. I aim to create a space where people feel genuinely welcomed, understood and accepted, without pressure to mask, perform or change who they are.Alongside my clinical work, I have experience working within specialist educational settings supporting autistic young people with complex communication, sensory and emotional needs. I continue to develop my practice through ongoing training in neurodiversity-affirming therapy, trauma-informed practice and autistic wellbeing.Sessions are available online throughout the UK, with home visits available within South West London where appropriate. Therapy is offered in English, French and Italian.

Designations: MSc., CPsychol

I am an HCPC-registered Clinical Psychologist and Chartered Psychologist (BPS), working with adults experiencing the long-term effects of trauma, relational difficulties, emotional overwhelm, and persistent patterns that feel difficult to understand or change. I also offer a lower-cost first-step Adult ADHD Initial Consultation for a £50 fee, which is fully deducted from the £950.00 assessment fee if you subsequently proceed with an Adult ADHD Assessment to get a full diagnosis. I also provide psychological assessment to develop a clearer understanding of an individual’s psychological needs and inform appropriate recommendations.Many of the people I work with are outwardly functioning but internally struggling with anxiety, emotional intensity, self-criticism, or a sense of being disconnected from themselves or others. These difficulties often have roots in earlier relational or developmental experiences that continue to shape present-day responses. I specialise in working with adults with ADHD, autistic traits, and broader neurodivergent presentations, particularly where these intersect with burnout, emotional regulation difficulties, and identity-related challenges.My approach is formulation-led and integrative, focusing on understanding how your internal world has been formed over time, and how unconscious patterns may be influencing your current emotional and relational life. Rather than focusing solely on symptom reduction, we work toward building insight, emotional integration, and meaningful psychological change.I founded Totality Psychology to create a space where individuals can move beyond surface-level coping and develop a deeper understanding of themselves as a whole in context.

I often work with neurodivergent people navigating overwhelm, trauma, identity, or seeking space to reconnect with themselves.

Whether you’re late-diagnosed, self-identified, or exploring the possibility of neurodivergence, you’re welcome here.I draw from a humanistic integrative framework, meaning I tailor our work to you rather than fitting you into a set method. With my lived experience, I offer an affirming space where you don’t have to mask or explain yourself. You’re welcome to show up exactly as you are, with stimming, tangents, or uncertainty, and we’ll make room for all of it.Above all, I’m here to provide a space where you feel safe enough to be real, to soften, to speak, to feel, to not know, and be met with care every step of the way. If you’d like to learn more about how I work, you’re welcome to visit my website or get in touch. I offer an initial session at a reduced rate so we can take our time exploring how we might work together in a gentle and non-pressured way. I’d love to hear from you.

I believe therapy begins with a genuine human relationship. Every person has a unique story, shaped by their experiences, relationships, and the ways they have learned to manage life’s challenges. Rather than seeing distress as something that needs to be fixed, I see it as something to be genuinely understood with compassion and curiosity.My approach is grounded in person-centred counselling, where empathy, authenticity, and acceptance create a safe space for exploration. I don’t see myself as someone with all the answers, but as someone who walks alongside you offering support, reflection, and a steady presence as we make sense of your experiences together.Alongside this foundation, my practice is informed by trauma-informed thinking, attachment theory, and developmental neuroscience. Above all, I hope to offer a relationship in which you feel genuinely seen, heard, and accepted, creating the conditions for growth, healing, and lasting change.I offer therapy face to face, online and outdoors for coastal walk and talks.
