Angela Holden

I work with you to explore and understand your emotional difficulties more fully, and support you to get more from life.

I'm an experienced and highly qualified counsellor and psychotherapist with over 12 years work in clinical practice. I work with you to really explore together, at a deep level, your concerns, with the aim of discovering why you feel and act as you do, and with this self knowledge, feel more equipped to handle difficult emotions and life's challenges. It's this process, as well as the "containment" of the therapeutic relationship that leads to change. 

I offer confidential, understanding and non-judgmental counselling and psychotherapy at my comfortable, restful practice just a few minutes from Tooting Broadway tube. I also work online both locally and with clients from around the country and abroad.

Before training as a psychotherapist I had a 20 year career in the creative industries, in journalism and television. I feel I bring longstanding experience of life out in the real world, to my work with you, my client.

I have an MSc in Integrative Psychotherapy and a Clinical Diploma in Psychodynamic Therapy both from Metanoia Institute and have completed numerous short courses as part of my Continuing Professional Development.

I am an integrative psychotherapist, which means I tailor the approaches and theories I draw on to meet your unique needs.

As we really explore your emotional issues together, you might come to a deeper understanding and awareness about yourself and how you operate in life. You may discover how past experiences influence the way you show up in the world now, and be able to get some distance from old, unhelpful patterns. You may gain a truer sense of who you are, and what it is that you really want and need - and equally importantly what you don't want. All this may help you to make changes that work better for you in your life now.
