Esther is very kind and easy to talk to. She never makes me feel judged or silly. She is extremely compassionate, but also doesn't shy away from talking about the difficult stuff. She often gives me her thoughts or shares patterns she is seeing within my own thoughts, which I find extremely helpful (more helpful than therapists who just listen and don't speak). I don't always look forward to therapy sessions but knowing that Esther is my therapist makes it much easier to show up every week.

Welcome to my page.
Life can be a struggle, challenging and confusing. Sometimes it can be difficult to talk openly to those around you. I offer a confidential, caring space free from judgment for you to explore your thoughts and feelings.
I am empathic and honest. In therapy I will work alongside and support you so that you can find your way through the difficulties you are experiencing or have experienced in the past; in a way that feels right for you; at a pace that feels comfortable. We can work together to make sense of what you’re thinking, feeling and what you are going through, enabling you to develop a sense of healing, establish goals and grow towards them gaining a greater understanding of yourself.
I am a member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy and follow their Ethical Framework and policies. As an integrative therapist I draw from a range of therapeutic approaches, The way I work is tailored to you and your needs.
A bit more about me.
I have my own personal experience of how rewarding and transformative therapy can be. I have worked as a therapist in various settings, privately, at a medical practice, within a drug addiction service and volunteer work for a UK based mental health charity. I was born and grew up in London. Lived for many years in Ecuador, South America and now live in the UK by the coast. I enjoy the freedom, space and peace this brings me.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Esther is really helping me. So thrilled to have connected with her
Esther is a breath of fresh air! I feel heard and understood, she is an ideal balance of soft but navigates to the crux of my issue... I couldn't recommend her style more, and I love that she gives me worksheets to prepare for our chats. I feel very 'seen' but in a way that's open to the changing perspectives I'm discovering about myself and experiences.
