Ros Powell
Ros is a BACP-registered integrative counsellor working with individual adults.
From Ros:
I’m an open and approachable counsellor offering a warm, calm space in which you can explore difficult feelings and issues without judgement, and at your own pace.
My integrative training means that I draw upon different approaches to counselling, which can be adapted to your needs. My priority when we meet will be to build trust, and I’ll be led by you in terms of the areas in life you’d like to look at. It might be helpful, for example, to explore how your early experiences or past relationships could be impacting those in the present. We may also focus on a specific and current problem or challenge, fear or dilemma. Talking things through in a collaborative, down-to-earth and empathic way can help bring clarity, acceptance and change.
My natural interest in people has led me to a lifetime of listening. My other career as a writer and published author has brought me into contact with people from all kinds of backgrounds and professions which, I believe, has enriched my perspective and life experience, making me a more effective and broad-minded counsellor.
Alongside my private practice, I work with a bereavement charity providing counselling to people living in East London who are struggling with grief and loss.
I have a specialist interest in adoption and am a certified infertility specialist with the Foundation of Infant Loss, with whom I've also trained as an infant and pregnancy loss practitioner.
I’ve also undertaken training in somatic-informed trauma counselling, exploring the connection between mind and body.
I offer both short (6-12 sessions) and longer-term, or ‘open-ended’ counselling, depending on your needs. Our initial, 50-minute session is offered at a reduced rate of £45. In this session you can tell me a bit about what has brought you to therapy, and to ask any questions about the way I work.
Further sessions £70
