Jolanta Gallo

I have availability after 5pm - face-to-face on Tue, Wed and Fridays, and online in the mornings and at lunchtimes. I also offer walk and talk sessions. 

Being a humanist at heart, I believe we all have the potential and internal resources to live a fulfilling life. 

Counselling with me can be of help to you if you are finding life difficult at the moment and are looking for ways to navigate through these difficulties with greater understanding, acceptance of yourself and trust in your inner resources. You may also be looking to develop more fulfilling relationships with yourself and with others. 

In the sessions with me, I will listen to you and learn what your needs and preferences are, so I can work with you in ways that are most relevant and helpful to you, using a range of therapeutic tools and theories. My natural inclination is to work holistically, supporting body and mind integration. This can be done through a range of exercises, for example breathing, gentle movement, combined with the exploration of the root causes of your difficulties. 

I have experience working with the NHS Talking Therapies seeing a range of clients with anxiety, ADHD, depression, low self-esteem, self harming, going through grieving process, stress at work and difficulties in relationships. More recently I have been working in a private practice, seeing clients in South London - Clapham and Brixton locations, as well as online. 

In my practice I will sit alongside you, often looking at your early experiences to bring understanding that can help initiate positive changes. If you would find it helpful, we may try some breathing and body awareness exercises, visualisations or gentle movement. I may also use family systems tools to bring understanding of relationship dynamics. 

I believe it is through awareness and integration of various parts of oneself that the healing process begins. 

I offer a free 20 min telephone chat to find out a bit more about you and to give you a flavour of how we could work together. After this initial call if you would like to work with me, I offer short-term or long-term therapy and we can schedule these in either online or face-to-face. I also offer walk and talk sessions in a park in South London.
