Hello, I am Rupa Lal a counsellor and psychotherapist based in North London.
Many clients I see feel overwhelmed which impacts their emotional, physical, and spiritual health. This can be extremely challenging and draining.
This is where I can help.
In therapy we can explore the changes you would like to see together. Talking freely can help to loosen the hold of anxious feelings which can seem circular.
In my experience therapy can reveal key insights forming an internal guide as we better understand the influences which shape us. The focus is to discover the choices which are available and work towards a sense of balance, hope, and resilience.
INDIVIDUAL SESSIONS
Introduction Call
I offer a 15 minute complimentary phone call by way of an introduction to briefly discuss how I can be of support.
The First Session
The first session allows us to discuss the challenges you are facing, get to know one another and discuss your expectations from therapy.
Beginning therapy can feel strange and this is perfectly normal especially if this is your first experience. I will ensure not to overwhelm you and take it at your own pace answering questions as we go along.
There is no obligation to continue after the initial consultation. If my skills are not suited to your needs I am more than happy to try and help find the right support for you.
Duration
I can offer either short-term or long term (open-ended) sessions. Sessions are 50 minutes and take place weekly.
Process
If you have a specific goal in mind we can explore this together as a way to map progress.
There can be trying times in therapy as difficult feelings and emotions can surface. We can talk about how you are experiencing the sessions. Your feedback is a key part of ensuring I am meeting your needs.
Format
The sessions can take place using audio only (telephone), webcam (via Zoom) or face-face.
Fees
The cost of each session is £65.00
Payment is via bank transfer.
