A space to talk about what feels hardest to say

Counselling gives you a confidential space to bring whatever is weighing on you and be met with care rather than judgement. Together with Nathalia, you explore what you are going through, how your experiences have shaped how you feel and relate to others, and what matters most to you going forward. You set the pace.

What Nathalia can help with

  • Anxiety and stress
  • Depression and low mood
  • Anger
  • Relationship difficulties
  • Grief and bereavement
  • The lasting impact of childhood experiences
  • Work pressure: long hours, deadlines and office politics

Counselling for children and young people

Nathalia holds a Level 5 qualification in counselling children and young people and has worked in a secondary school and with families across south west London. With younger clients she may use more creative, playful or less verbal ways of communicating, so that talking doesn't have to be the only way in. Sessions run during school hours, so availability for children and young people is limited.

How Nathalia works

Nathalia is trained in integrative counselling, which means she draws on a range of approaches and shapes the work around each person's needs, goals and pace. She is especially aware of how early experiences, particularly relationships with the people who cared for us, shape how we feel and relate to the world. She believes the relationship between counsellor and client, built on trust, consistency and genuine human connection, is at the heart of meaningful change.

Before training as a counsellor, Nathalia worked for a private equity firm, so she understands first-hand the pressures of corporate life.

Questions

Is counselling confidential?

Yes. What you discuss stays between you and Nathalia, with a small number of exceptions, which Nathalia will explain at your first session.

Do I need a GP referral?

No. You can book directly.

How many sessions will I need?

It varies from person to person. The number of sessions is agreed in your contract and reviewed together.

Can my child see Nathalia?

Yes. Nathalia works with children and young people as well as adults. For younger children, a parent or carer is usually involved in arranging sessions and agreeing how they will work. Sessions are during school hours, so availability for younger clients is limited.

Are sessions online?

Nathalia sees clients face to face at the clinic.

What if I need to cancel?

Please give us at least 48 hours' notice by phone or email and we'll find another time.

What if I'm in crisis?

Counselling isn't an emergency service. If you are in crisis or at risk, call 999, go to A&E, or call Samaritans free on 116 123, any time.
