Hello and Welcome to My Profile!

All the experiences we encounter from childhood onward shape our belief systems and deeply influence how we relate to ourselves and others. Counselling offers a space to explore and revise unhelpful thought patterns, while supporting you in finding your own narrative and making sense of your struggles. It is a journey of self-discovery and increased self-awareness.

Counselling can provide invaluable support in reconnecting with your inner needs, wants, and desires.

My mission is to create a safe, confidential, and non-judgmental space where you feel free to offload and explore any issue—without pressure to perform or meet external expectations.

I work holistically, embracing the complexity of being human. I believe that everyone has the capacity to heal and grow in any area of life they choose to focus on.

In my professional practice, I always demonstrate sensitivity to individual differences. I work respectfully and inclusively with clients of all ethnicities, gender identities, sexual orientations, religious and cultural backgrounds—treating everyone with unconditional positive regard.

I am a MBACP-registered Counsellor, specialising in Trauma work, and belong to the accredited register recognised by the Professional Standards Authority for Health and Social Care. I am also accredited by the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS).

I bring over 23 years of experience in Mental Health and Trauma, having worked in a wide range of settings including the NHS, MIND, Drugs and Alcohol Services in London, Carers Centres, EAPs, and Universities.

My approach is Integrative, meaning I draw on a variety of therapeutic models tailored to each client’s individual needs. These include Gestalt Therapy, Person-Centred Counselling, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP). My style is both collaborative and relational.

In our first session, we’ll explore your current concerns and identify the goals you wish to achieve through therapy. This session also gives you the chance to talk freely and be heard in a confidential, supportive setting.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. I hope it has been helpful.

Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions.

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.

Testimonials from previous clients

"You have helped us enormously to move past our problems and find a better way to communicate. We are both very grateful for all your help."

"I went to see Aryeh during a time in my life where I was beginning to feel depressed and it was affecting nearly all aspects of my life. Aryeh is an amazing listener and his in-depth analysis of things I never would have thought of helped me resolve some huge holes in my life."

"Aryeh is calm, down to earth and easy to approach, which is exactly what you need when you're feeling vulnerable talking about yourself and your issues."

"I feel the immense benefit to my life coming to you has given me."

I have worked in the field of mental health for over twenty years and I do this work from a place of love, passion and vocation. As well as a thorough and in-depth professional training I also bring the important often difficult learnings from life, relationships, parenting, loss, ageing: any such central components of being alive. My central thrust is towards connection, authenticity and trust: to offer this and thus encourage the same from you.

I create a safe space in which you can feel ready to unburden yourself from the weight of whatever you are carrying alone. Whether it is your anxieties and fears or your anger and dissatisfaction; whether it is haunting trauma or crippling self-doubt: whatever it is I am there to accompany you on the journey to the bottom of it. The work is all about communication and expression, through listening to your story and through working with your body where so often tension is trapped and tormenting. The timing of your arrival in therapy is always the right timing: when your need wells right up to the surface and sends you to me I am here.

My first priority is to build a good relationship where you feel safe and heard. I have a compassionate, empathic and non-judgemental approach to psychotherapy, which helps create the therapeutic relationship for your journey towards improved mental health and well-being. Whilst the sessions will primarily led by you to allow personal exploration, I will help guide and work with you to to unpack the narrative and identify any limiting beliefs, life scripts or mindset etc, that may be keeping you stuck.

I have training and experience as a BACP registered Integrated Psychotherapist dealing with various issues such as addictions, bereavement, anxiety, depression, divorce/separation, body dysmorphia, low self-esteem, and much more. Being an Integrated Psychotherapist allows me to utilise various approaches and skill sets and to tailor these to your individual needs. I have trained in modalities such as Person Centred, CBT, IFS, Gestalt, Narrative and Attachment.

I have further training in coaching, mindfulness, and Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) which broadens my therapeutic toolbox. I integrate these into my practice where appropriate to help you address your issues and achieve personal growth and healing.

I hope to hear from you soon.

As a person centred trained counsellor with over 11 years of experience, I provide a safe space to explore your issues and guide you on your journey of self-discovery. Through my work, I have adapted the use of different models of counselling depending on the client’s needs. By working together, we will explore your life, helping you gain clarity and discover ways to make sense of your emotions so that you can move forward in a positive way. As everyone is different, I take the time to understand your specific situation so I can tailor your therapy to your individual needs.

I have never met a client who needs to be "fixed" yet I have met a lot who didn't have the space free of judgment to share their emotions, struggles, concerns or issues. Reaching out for help is the first step and I would offer you the next one: the safe space to be heard and take the next steps towards a better future.
