Ann Allega - Therapist

SPECIALIST IN AMERICAN EXPATRIATES • ADDICTIONS • WORK RELATED STRESS • RELATIONSHIP ISSUES • EXPATRIATE RELOCATION STRESS • FAMILY DYNAMICS • PTSD • ANGER MANAGEMENT • ANXIETY • DEPRESSION • LOW SELF ESTEEM • ADHD

Hello, my name is Ann and I am a registered member of the BACP. I have significant experience in online counselling and as a result I firmly believe in its benefits. I have done online and phone counselling myself and I found it to be effective. I've worked with lots of people who have never experienced counselling before and I am aware that this can be an anxiety provoking and nervous experience. However, based on my experience I am of the opinion that the release of speaking about something which you may have kept private for a long time is extremely cathartic. If you've come this far, I can offer you confidential and encouraging support through whatever it is you wish to work through. You may not even know what that is! Just that it might be time to talk to someone. My previous career was in the corporate world where I worked for over fifteen years in the beer industry. I'm an American expatriate having first moved to London in 2004. One of my special areas of interest is helping American expats (or any expats) adjust emotionally and psychologically with all the differences they face in the United Kingdom. I know because I faced the same challenges. In addition, I can work with any issue you wish to bring to me. As a registered member of BACP, I am committed to my continual personal and professional development and also work in accordance with their ethical framework for good practice.

SPECIALIST IN ADHD and Autism in adults + Depression + Anxiety + Abuse + Bullying + Relationship Difficulties + Gender Identity + Sexuality + Relationship Diversity (including Kink and Polyamory) + Post Natal Depression + Grief + Bereavement + C-PTSD + Trauma + Eating Disorders + Attachment + Family Dynamics + Workplace Issues

Hello. As a counsellor/psychotherapist, I am committed to choosing a therapeutic approach that works best for you, and view the relationship between us both to be crucial in facilitating whatever changes you want to make.

I know that shopping around and finding the right fit is important before investing money, time and emotional energy - and so I'm always happy to have a brief informal chat before you commit to any sessions.

I work with a variety of presenting issues, and am happy to work with you for short-term or long-term therapy.

I am LGBTQIA+/GSRD (Gender, Sexuality and Relationship Diversity) allied, sex positive and body positive. I also have lived experience of Autism and ADHD and keep up to date with research and services around neurodivergence.

I have previously counselled children from age 5 upwards in school settings, and with parents in a post-natal depression charity. Prior to my counselling career, I worked in the arts and education sectors, supporting people of different ages and abilities to explore and express themselves - which it seems is something of a passion of mine. My arts training and background mean that I'm not averse to bringing creativity into the therapeutic relationship if appropriate.

Richard Stiles - Therapist

SPECIALIST IN Anxiety, Self-esteem & confidence issues, Mindfulness

I am a BACP accredited counsellor working with individuals and couples. My belief is that every human being is unique and views the world in an individual way. Therapy with me offers an exploration of what makes you who you are. This can involve looking at your childhood, your values and relationship patterns, in a supportive and non-judgemental way. I believe in gently encouraging you to reach your full potential. You may come to therapy because of a particular crisis or difficulty in your live. Simply telling your story can be enormously beneficial. However, you don't need to be in crisis to benefit from therapy. You might simply want a space to explore your life in a more philosophical way. Therapy offers a safe place for that exploration.

Mindfulness and present moment awareness are at the heart of how I work as a therapist. In becoming more comfortable with the uncomfortable we can find peace and acceptance of wherever we find ourselves. Then we can begin to move on.

How can I help?

1) Marital and Relationship Issues

As a Certified Imago Relationship Therapist I work with individuals and couples to understand the causes of their difficulties and rebuild love and connection in their relationships.

Couples often experience a breakdown of communication, that causes a fight and flight reaction. These may become repetitive cycle of self destructive behaviour were anger expressed spins out of control .A reduction of emotional closeness, trust and physical intimacy follows which can lead to crises in the relationship, affairs and even the threat of divorce.

Together we explore what you need, why there is disconnection and how you can get the relationship you want. A key to this is building open and calm communication in order to understand each other, resolve conflict and meet each others needs . We also focus on building greater appreciation, care and fun to reignite love and connection in the relationship.

2) Overcoming Anxiety ( Generalised Anxiety Disorder & Panic attacks)

Anxiety comes from underlying fear. To overcome it, we need to understand what the fear is and what is causing it. Sometimes it can be based on illusory thinking, where a person focuses on the worst case scenario coming true. These thoughts need to be challenged so we can eliminate them. . When the fear is a real one, it needs to be confronted by taking appropriate action. There are times when anxiety is based on the influences from past experiences, which need to be addressed to resolve them.

3) Anger Management

Anger can wreak havoc in a person’s life. With anger management a person gains understanding into what’s triggering the anger and how to change the way you respond. This can be by expressing feelings in a healthy way, and taking appropriate steps to solve the underlying cause of the anger. In each case anger management is tailored to the needs of the clients.
