Individual in Person Therapy

In-person therapy offers a safe, supportive space to guide you through your healing journey.

Individual in Person Therapy

Therapy, when approached with care and attunement, can be a deeply supportive and transformative space. I offer a warm, confidential, and non-judgmental environment where you can explore whatever challenges you’re facing, at your own pace, in your own way. In our work together, I will listen with empathy and curiosity as we explore the issues that may be impacting your emotional wellbeing, relationships, or sense of self. My aim is to support you in gaining greater insight, healing, and a stronger connection to your authentic self.

As we work together, you may begin to discover how past experiences and early conditioning continue to influence the way you relate to yourself and others. By bringing compassionate awareness to these patterns, we can explore how they may be holding you back. This awareness opens the door to gently shifting towards healthier, more empowering ways of being and responding that are more aligned with who you truly are. A key part of this process may involve identifying and challenging any self-limiting beliefs about yourself, others, and the world that keep you feeling stuck. I also support you in reconnecting with and accepting all parts of yourself, even the ones that may feel difficult or unwanted, helping you embrace your whole self with compassion.

I don't believe that anyone is broken. Often, we find ourselves stuck in survival responses such as fight, flight, freeze, or shutdown, rooted in the nervous system's protective wiring. These are not flaws, but intelligent adaptations shaped by life experience. As a polyvagal-informed therapist, I will guide you in understanding your nervous system from an evolutionary perspective. We'll work together to map your nervous system states, recognize triggers, and develop tools and resources for self-regulation, safety, and connection.

 

My intention is to help you feel more empowered, not by fixing you, but by helping you understand, trust, and support your system. Through this process, you can begin to experience greater resilience, self-acceptance, and the freedom to make meaningful changes in your life.

 

Where:

I offer individual therapy with adults at My Place Community Centre, 343 Dagenham Park Drive, Harold Hill, Romford, RM3 9EN, UK. 

First session:

I appreciate how contacting and finding a suitable counsellor can be difficult. This is why I offer a free 20 minute telephone consultation giving you the opportunity to tell me a little about what is going on for you and to ask any questions you may have. Also, for you to get to know how I work and to see if I am the right counsellor for you. There is no obligation to book an appointment as choosing a counsellor that you feel comfortable with is important. If we book a first session, I will send you a therapeutic contract and assessment to complete before our first session. In the first session we will talk about what brings you to counselling and how we will work together. 

Service Fees:

Sessions are 50 minutes long and £55 per session.

Cancellation policy:

Please give at least 24 hours notice to reschedule or cancel.  Outside of 24 hours, the session will not be cancellable and you will still be charged.

Work with me:

If you would like a free consultation, please complete the contact me form or email laurentansel7@gmail.com and I will be in touch.
