Íø±¬ÃÅ

My name is Kirstie (she/her) and I am a Íø±¬ÃÅ accredited psychotherapist. I have trained in the psychodynamic modality, but draw on humanist and relational therapeutic practices to support my work. I began my training as a therapist working in schools and colleges. Alongside my practice, I work part-time in a Further Education college, supporting young people and adult learners with counselling and mental health advice.

My aim is to offer a safe and confidential space where we can explore whatever you feel is troubling you. I hope to provide a  calm and non-judgemental environment, so that you feel able to express feelings and share memories and experiences in a therapeutic setting.

My experience has shown me that when we develop greater self-awareness, and work to accept and appreciate ourselves, we are more likely to feel empowered to make decisions that feel right to us.

I understand how inequality and discrimination can cause distress and affect our abilities to thrive and feel that we belong. Being able to understand the context of our feelings and behaviours can help develop insight and the possibility for personal development and change.

Living in a big city like London has its own stresses, which is why I offer the opportunity to work in the outdoors. I can offer sessions in my local park and on my allotment.

If you have any questions about whether therapy could help you, please feel free to call, or contact me via my website.

I offer face to face and online sessions using therapy rooms based in London Bridge SE1 and Sydenham SE26.  I also offer outdoor therapy in my local park and on my allotment (weather permitting!).

We can work in an open ended way or on the basis of a short term approach.

Fees are for weekly 50-minute sessions face to face: £75

I have some availability for concessionary rates for clients on low income.

I offer a free 20-minute session online or over the telephone.

This is an opportunity for you to tell me what brings you to counselling/therapy, to discuss any questions you may have and see if we think that I am the right therapist/counsellor for you.
