Therapy with me

Welcome I’m Debra,

Whether you are facing a big life challenge, feeling overwhelmed, trying to manage difficult thoughts and feelings, or simply wish to thrive more to clarify who you are and what you want out of life, the opportunity to share your problems with a trained professional, is a worthwhile investment in yourself. I invite you to experience how powerful the rewards of therapy can be.

I offer you the opportunity to be truly listened to and heard, helping you reflect upon and better understand what is going on in your life.

I am a trained and Registered MBACP therapist and I hold a Diploma in Psychodynamic Counselling and Therapy. Using the Psychodynamic Approach, we will explore your patterns of behaviour and uncover unconscious processes that may be impacting on your life. Often past early developmental experiences influence our present beliefs and behaviours. Our work together will endeavour to examine these influences and their impact.

Each therapy session lasts 50 minutes and is held at the same time and place each week. I offer face to face sessions in my consulting room in Finchley, London, N3 or online via Zoom.

I provide a supportive, professional, confidential, safe and non-judgemental space to make sense of your thoughts and feelings and help you develop insight and affect positive change.

My Experience

I work with individuals from varied backgrounds with a wide-range of issues including: Anxiety, Depression, Identity Issues, Loss and Bereavement, Self-Esteem and Low Confidence, Family Issues, Health-Related Issues, Sexuality/Sex-Related Issues, Relationship Issues, Stress Issues and Trauma Issues.

I have years of life and professional experience both as a therapist and in the workplace, previously working as a Solicitor in the commercial sector, and as an Executive Director in the non profit sector. These experiences afforded me the opportunity to understand the demands of a pressurised work environment and managing relationships.

In addition to my Private Therapy Practice, I work as a Therapist for two Mental Health Charities.

I am passionate about facilitating your ability to affect change and gain insight and self-awareness, assisting you in making better choices and feeling more in control of your life and emotions.

So, whatever your culture, gender, religion, sexuality, or age, I look forward to getting to know who you are.
