Jill Deacon
Counsellor/Therapist, BSc and FdSc Person Centred Counselling. MBACP
People come to therapy for a number of reasons; you may be experiencing trauma or bereavement, the effects of historical issues, or knock on effects of the pandemic. A lot of people come to therapy because life just feels unmanageable and are struggling with day to day living. You may not know why life currently feels so difficult.
Talking with a trained and experienced counsellor can help you accept and move through your issues, give you the tools and understanding to cope better with life's challenges and discover a freedom to live with and beyond the things that are holding you back.
Speaking with someone for the first time about personal issues or trauma can feel really daunting. It is important to feel safe and not judged when talking about difficult things, and my aim is for us to develop a relationship where you can explore whatever it is that you need to.

Fiona Grace
Counsellor/Therapist, AdvDipCounselling &Pyschotherapy MBACP
Finding the right counsellor for you is one of the most important parts that will make therapy more effective and successful for you. Its not just about our qualifications but how we connect and work together.
I am a Neurodivergent counsellor and have found this out very late in life, I understand how it feels to just not fit in or be able to conform to the 'norms' of society, to struggle to work out why we are different. How to find ways to learn who you are and love all those 'quirks' that make us different. I understand how this feels and will work with you to help you find your way to manage what you are experiencing.
I have learnt experience with CNBC - childless not by choice and Chronic Pain & Fatigue conditions. With both of these I find it can really be beneficial that I have an understanding of how it feels and not just how it is to study these experiences.
As well as working with Adults I also work as a counsellor with young people in schools, colleges and my private practice.

Dr Jacob Ellwood
Psychologist, PsychD, Cpsychol
I am an experienced integrative therapist, and I am trained in a range of modalities that will allow us to identify a tailor-made approach to help you overcome your unique challenges. I offer a warm, accepting presence, and work on the assumption that all successful therapy proceeds from a person-centred foundation based in empathy, positive regard and genuine concern for the welfare of my clients. Approaches offered include CBT, psychodynamic, and mindfulness-based therapy, and I am also a level 3-trained EMDR therapist. I also incorporate elements of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and schema therapy.

Dr Paul Garden
Psychologist, Doctorate in Psychology, DPsych, MSc with Distinction, BSc First Class Honours.
I am a registered Health Care Professions Council (HCPC) Practitioner Psychologist, and am on the British Psychological Society Register of Applied Psychology Practice Supervisors (RAPPS). I have been in Private Practice in Central London for nine years.
Before spending ten years in full-time study and training in London universities and NHS Trusts to qualify as a psychologist, I spent a decade travelling, mainly around Asia, studying Eastern psychology and philosophy. Thus, I have a rich lens of psychological perspectives through which I understand and work with the mind.
Psychoanalytic thinking underpins my approach to therapy, which is always tailored to suit the unique needs of each person. The therapeutic work then adapts as those needs change over time.
You will find my approach to be naturally compassionate, and non-judgemental.
