About Annabel Knight
I am a qualified counsellor registered by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I work in Sheen and Wimbledon at 2 quiet and pleasant locations, within reach of public transport.
I offer short and long term counselling to individuals of all ages and backgrounds and have experience with a range of concerns that includes:
Anxiety and stress
Bereavement and loss
Childhood trauma
Depression
Low self-esteem
Personal crisis and feelings of hopelessness
Issues relating to cultural diversity, particulary cross-cultural relationships
The Way I work
My core training is in Psychosynthesis counselling, an integrative model that works respectfully with all aspects of ourselves: mind, body, feelings and spirit. I hold an optimistic view of the human experience and believe that we can all access our resilience and inner resources.
Essential to my approach, is the view that through every challenge and crisis something new is trying to emerge.
Considering our difficulties as opportunities to re-evaluate our lives and find new purpose and direction can be empowering. Even in the midst of suffering, it is possible to make sense of our experiences, let go of destructive habits and patterns and make healthier choices.
Along with active dialogue, I sometimes introduce simple tools and techniques such as guided imagery, journaling, meditation and drawing. I also make use of some CBT and Gestalt therapy techniques
