Acupuncture

An acupuncture treatment can also help with feeling better when dealing with serious illnesses and the undesirable effects of medications. It is also good to receive as a preventative treatment so as to maintain a sense of 'feel good'.

Wellbeing Therapies London is a Counselling, CBT, Psychotherapy & Acupuncture Clinic with premises in Forest Hill , south-east London.

As a fully qualified and experienced counsellor, acupuncturist and teacher, I bring a combination of know-how, experience and empathy to my work. My background is in ‘talking therapies’ including short term counselling, CBT as well as longer-term psychotherapy. I am also a Chinese medicine practitioner specialising in acupuncture. I aim to focus my expertise on providing a beneficial and patient responsive service. For me, it’s all about empowering clients to change their lives for the better.

My treatment modalities include counselling, CBT, Psychodynamic or Jungian perspective psychotherapy, EMDR and acupuncture. I work with a whole range of different issues including anxiety, relationship issues, generalised anxiety disorder, depression and trauma.

I work with a whole range of different issues

Anxiety

Self Healing

Anxiety

Anxiety is your body's natural response to stress—an internal alarm system designed to keep you safe. However, for many, this alarm is too sensitive, triggering feelings of fear, dread, or rapid heartbeat even when there is no immediate danger

Depression

Relationships

Relationship Issues

Relationship issues rarely stem from a lack of love; they usually stem from a lack of translation. We often assume that because we care for someone, they should automatically understand our needs.

Trauma

Mental Health

Depression and Trauma

Depression acts as the shutdown mechanism (freeze), forcing the body to conserve energy when the system is overwhelmed. Together, they can create a cycle where a person feels simultaneously "wired" and "tired," unable to relax but too exhausted to engage with life.

I look forward to hearing from you
