Robert Ferreira, Integrative Counsellor
Thinking about Counselling.....
You may be experiencing how life can be challenging, demanding and sometimes just hard, so you may feel the time is right to focus on yourself and your mental health or maybe something from the past, present or uncertain future.
I am able to provide support and guidance with common emotional, behavioural and psychological conditions including (but not limited to) low mood, feeling down, hopelessness, low self-esteem, panic and anxiety, worry, procrastination, rumination, catastrophising, imposter syndrome, bereavement, trauma and perfectionism.
I have experience in supporting neurodiverse clients such as ADHD and ASD including navigating new diagnoses.
About me
Qualified Integrative Counsellor, offering face-to-face sessions in Canary Wharf E14 as well as sessions online. I am a registered member of the BACP and follow their Ethical Framework
Having previously worked as a counsellor in the NHS for an Inner London Borough has given me the experience of working with a diverse clientele, with varying presentations. I do value my private work which allows me to work in a way where we are not time limited. I work relationally and believe that our relationship is at the heart of the therapy, but also in a space where my clients can be autonomous on their path to where they want or need to go.
I practice in an Integrative manner which allows me to draw on knowledge and skills from various counselling approaches based on your individual circumstances in order to provide the most effective and personalised therapy for your needs.
How I work
I believe that for counselling to work best, sessions initially need to be weekly until we can agree together on a different frequency.
Counselling is your time to talk in a confidential, non-judgemental environment. Often people seek counselling for a specific reason such as a mental health condition such as depression or anxiety, to discuss something from the past or relationship or work issues (or indeed any combination of these).
Drawing on my core modalities of Person-Centred and Psychodynamic therapies, we can work together on understanding why these issues are presenting as well as exploring ways to overcome them or provide you with the tools to address what you may face.
I may also introduce other techniques, drawing on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) or Solution-focused therapy.
I am an eclectic practitioner and working Integratively allows me to not be limited to a particular theory or technique but use them in a combination unique to your presenting issue.
Sessions start at £60 for 50 minutes. Concessionary rates available for students, trainees and those on a low income.
Get in touch
New to counselling?
If you haven’t had counselling before, I would recommend that our first session acts as a no-obligation consultation session, charged at the standard rate, where we can explore whether counselling is right for you, what your expectations are and whether you feel we can work together.
Please feel free to request a phone call to get to know me instead and raise any questions about how counselling works.
Had counselling before?
We can use the first session to establish how I can help you and whether you feel we can work together.
