Therapists in United Kingdom

Ms Isabel Davies
Ms Isabel Davies
I am an accredited Gestalt Psychotherapist registered with the UKCP and currently see both individuals and couples online. Individual therapy is for anyone who is experiencing a stressful time in their lives, or feels depressed or anxious or both. Perhaps you’re not feeling happy with your life in general and unsure of the reason and this may be affecting your relationships with family, friends or partner. During these times it can be supportive to speak to someone like a therapist who can provide a non judgemental confidential safe space for you to explore how you are feeling.

We are a multidisciplinary team of independent counsellors and therapists, providing a range of evidence-based talking therapies that maximise client choice.
Our team offers confidential, non-judgemental face to face and online counselling sessions to help you with issues of depression, stress & anxiety, relationships and life changes.
Together we will look at what it feels like to step out of your comfort zone, to tackle your fears, to let go of any ways of thinking, acting and feeling that don’t serve you, and to gain confidence to live a happier and more fulfilled life.

‘Something incredible happens when you open up to another human who you click with and who is trained to listen and support.’
The way I work is flexible. I meet you as an individual and will accept you exactly as you are, and try to see the world through your eyes. I will listen to you, really hear you and will be as genuine as I can, offering you time and space to find the answers you are looking for. I will not judge or critique you, tell you what to do, think or say, or who you should be. I will always meet you with unconditional positive regard, helping you to explore and navigate towards new insights and perspectives which can bring about a better way of relating to yourself, others or situations which you may find challenging.

I am a Systemic Psychotherapist working with individuals, couples and families. Many of my clients are males between the ages of 25-55 from all walks of life. I am near the City of London financial sector and many of my clients present with work related stress, anxiety and depression. I have also worked with OCD, bi-polar disorder; panic attacks; and eating disorders as well as PTSD and complex trauma and how this can manifest in people’s lives, particularly in relying on substances like alcohol & drugs. I have quite a lot of experience of dealing with suicidal ideation and know that life can quickly feel quite overwhelming.

I was once told ‘this too will pass’ and I have found the difficulties in my own life have done so. However I could not do it alone, as it felt too tough a journey to be on. Looking back today, I am glad I had a counsellor to listen to me and support me throughout my journey. You may feel as I did overloaded, confused and questioning why? As your counsellor I will to listen to you with empathy and compassion, help you see your strengths and show you kindness as you work through your challenges. With my support, over time your difficulties will too will pass and you will be able to lead the life you want. I believe counselling gives us the space to get to know the real self. My aim is to help you get your life back on track.

I am co-author of “Strength to Talk” which is dedicated to men’s mental health with all proceeds going to the charity Mind.
Anyone interested in counselling can have a free consultation session (30mins) to ask any questions and check that we could make progress.

The model I use is Gestalt/Humanistic theory.
