I specialize in relationship focused counseling for individuals and couples. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and certified in Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples. I currently practice in the Inner Sunset neighborhood of San Francisco. My practice is pretty evenly divided between individual and couples counseling. I love to help people workout how to love and feel securely bonded. I am constantly training and working on my skills and psychotherapeutic approach. I am not one to rest on my laurels. In particular, I love being a couples counselor. I often find it is the perfect space, not only to work on improving relationship, but also to explore one’s individual “stuff” in the process. I strive to show up with as much access to my own wounded parts as I do my healer parts when I sit with clients. That way you get to sit with a fellow traveler on the journey of life. If you want an old school blank slate therapist, tis not me you need to call. Relationship is what ultimately heals. So our first step together is to establish a relationship and alliance. Psychotherapy is truly a vocation for me and I am happy to share my passion and down to earth approach with you.

We all go through tough times in life and sometimes need a guiding hand to get through it. Finding the right therapist can be a difficult task but one that can be extremely rewarding if you find the right match. I offer my clients a nurturing, empathetic and non-judgmental environment to explore and work through their trauma, pain, struggles and stress. I strive to help my clients create balance and develop healthy boundaries in their life so that they may find the peace and happiness they are striving for. I use an eclectic array of modalities to help my clients towards their goals. A few of the methods that I use are meditation and mindfulness, art therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, EMDR, Hypnotherapy, narrative therapy and pet therapy (through the company of my trusty partner and certified therapy dog Rama). I offer my clients a holistic approach to therapy- taking a look at all of the factors in their life that may be contributing to their pain or struggles. One step at a time we can overcome these hurdles together. I look forward to speaking with you soon.

Are you sick and tired of having the same fight over and over? Are you wondering if the passion and fun can come back into your relationship or marriage? Worried that the conflict and negativity are unsolvable? Do you question if it’s possible to recover from an affair or other betrayal? Are you curious about how compatible you and your dating partner are and if you’re ready to move in, get engaged, or plan to be married? Have financial challenges threatened the safety and optimism in your relationship? Are there difficult conversations about the kids, whether and when to have kids, co-parenting with an ex-spouse, or dealing with step-parenting? Trish Stanley, PsyD, MFT is a dedicated relationship therapist who brings warmth, acceptance, and a treasure trove of skills to the process of helping her clients tackle and resolve these kinds of challenges. Her expertise is based on the groundbreaking work of our mentor, Dr. John Gottman. His forty years of research with over four thousand couples led to the development of powerful tools that reflect clinical evidence of what actually works in making relationships better and happier. The Gottman Method Couples Therapy is based on Dr. John Gottman’s research that began in the 1970’s and continues to this day. The research has focused on what makes relationships succeed or fail. From his research of four decades with more than 4,000 couple’s Dr. Gottman has created a method of therapy that helps couples break through barriers to achieve greater intimacy, understanding and connectedness in their relationship. Gottman Method Couples Therapy is a structured, goal-oriented, scientifically-based therapy. This method is designed to help teach specific tools to deepen friendship and intimacy, productively manage conflicts, generate greater understanding between partners, and support each other’s hopes for the future. Drs. John and Julie Gottman have demonstrated how couples can achieve greater friendship, conflict resolution, and meaning by paying attention to what they call the Sound Relationship House, or the seven components of a healthy marriage.

I approach therapy as a creative and collaborative healing process.

My focus is to help individuals and couples move through and release emotional blocks and challenges, to increase capacity for joy, and to use personal intuition to make positive life choices. Private payment is accepted and I have a select number of lower fee spaces for students or clients who have a low income. I can also bill directly to some insurance plans or provide receipts if you are eligible for reimbursements through your insurance or employee flex savings account.

I am a counselling psychologist and psychotherapist in private practice in Canary Wharf. I am recognised by the UK's leading professional organisations for counselling and psychotherapy, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) as well the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapists (UKCP) and I am a member of the British Psychological Society (BPS), the governing body for psychologists and the Health & Care Professions Council (HCPC). I combine my leaning towards academic accomplishment with a down-to-earth and approachable manner in working with clients. I have worked clincially in a number of settings and with clients from a variety of backgrounds and presenting difficulties. These settings have spanned hospital contexts, not-for-profit organisations as well as private practice. I currently work with leading insurance and Employee Assistance Programmes to meet the high-quality service demands of their corporate clients. I am a recognised by Aviva, AXA PPP, Bupa and Cigna. I also accept GP referrals in Tower Hamlets and am experienced in working with a diversity of concerns. I am also very pleased to hear from private individuals considering entering counselling and so I have endeavoured to make my practice as accessible as possible in terms of affordability, disability and diversity. On a more personal note, I am South-African born and have been living in London for the previous 13 years. On relocating myself in the UK, I set about establishing dual career paths. Before dedicating my career to psychotherapy and psychology, I also worked in the pressurised world of the media and communications departments in high-profile organisations. The blend of my two cultural and professional backgrounds helps me bring a grounded and practical stance to what might seem like lofty and inaccessible psychological ideas. My areas of work I work generally with individuals facing common human struggles and couples wanting to resolve their difficulties. We all go through rocky periods in our lives and therapy can help you smooth a way forward. Some examples of how therapy can help you move through difficulties include: Understanding what might be causing problems and repetitive patterns. Clarifying what direction you want to take in your life. Exploring problems with intimate relationships or family members. Overcoming trauma - be it from childhood or more recently. Coping with loss and bereavement. Managing workplace issues such as stress, bullying and career decisions. In particular, I have worked extensively with bereavement, domestic violence and adult survivors of childhood abuse. In addition, examples of my experience include stress, identity issues, panic disorders, eating disorders and self harm, anxiety and depression.

No one ever said life is easy! Through my own life experience, personal crisis, loss, challenges and painful relationships I have learned that inner strength and resiliency is the key to survival. A quote by Winston Churchill is my motto, no matter how difficult life may seem, “Never Never Never Give Up.” Engaged or considering marriage? Pre marital counseling offers couples a structured sounding board to address important issues.. At MDC Serenity Counseling I offer a non-religious based program. If spirituality is important to you we can bring that topic into the conversation. Discuss important issues in a healthy productive way prior to tying the knot! Is divorce or separation a possible scenario for your current relationship? Are you finding yourself grieving a major loss right now? Anxiety and Depression often occur while coping with loss. We all grieve in our own way. In my experience it is not a matter of "getting over it" when we lose a relationship or a loved one. We need to give ourselves permission to be sad and grieve. It is important to realize that we can get through the pain of loss and go on with our lives and find happiness again. Life can be overwhelming at times. Current life situations can leave one feeling confused, anxious or depressed. There are times in life when we need help from a professional. Although it may seem scary, it is okay to ask for help. I will work with you to bring positive change to your life. The relationship between psychotherapist and client is one of the most important parts of therapy. I believe that creating a safe place to work through your difficulties is essential. I bring compassion, honesty and humor to my counseling. My training as a social worker and mental health therapist as well as my personal life experiences can help you find tools to cope with life’s difficulties. To achieve your goals I utilize an individual approach that builds on, and recognizes, the strengths you already have and assists you to learn new ones. My goal is to help you bring about positive change and help you get the serenity back into your life.

I work with individuals and couples ages 15 and up to work towards knowing freedom from all forms of suffering often due to past trauma; neglect; separation/divorce; grief; health issues; chronic pain; depression; anxiety. I use a variety of approaches including mindfulness meditation; yoga; psychotherapy; Eye Movement Desensitization and Re-processing; Emotional Freedom Technique. Clients say that I have a soothing voice and a comfortable peaceful office. They say that I am a good listener; compassionate; attuned; gentle yet direct and at times challenging. I teach an 8-Week Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction Program based on the work of Jon Kabat-Zinn and Zindel Segal that includes a full one-day silent meditation retreat. The program is based on In the beginning stages of counselling my goal is to help people create stability, which can be achieved by developing or enhancing existing coping skills and finding balance through an expanded support system eating mindfully; and learning to incorporate quiet time for meditation and self-care. Once life has become more stable - some people may choose to leave therapy while others may enter the second phase which involves change from the inside out. This stage may include processing past traumatic events, painful experiences, the development of negative self-esteem while learning to recognize unskilful habits and thought patterns that negatively impact self-esteem and confidence. This stage may include EMDR, EFT, a deeper mindfulness meditation practice; and/or restorative yoga. Changing from the inside out can result in freedom from the past; an ability to live in the present; and the skills to manage the inevitable storms of life that will present themselves in the future. In the final phase of therapy everything gets tied together and often leads people to other practices that will be maintained throughout life (ie meditation; faith; exercise; yoga....). Although clients are already well on their way to freedom, the third phase is a time in therapy when people can really begin to experience more fullfilling relationships with themselves and with others.

IT HELPS TO TALK TO SOMEONE Life can be challenging. All of us need support at times. This is particularly true if you are feeling depressed, anxious, angry or confused or are experiencing grief or a difficult relationship. Research and experience show that talk therapy can help. Therapy allows people to gain insight, improve relationships, clarify issues, overcome problems, and change unhelpful behaviors. I have a master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and I have conducted psychotherapy with individuals, couples, children, families and groups. My counseling clients come from all walks of life and are concerned with a wide variety of issues. I believe in providing a warm, supportive and thought-provoking environment where you can feel safe to explore your concerns. As a therapist, my approach is collaborative - we work together on discovering what is holding you back and how to overcome it. (For more, please see About Me & My Approach to Therapy). Whether you are struggling with relationship problems, your work environment, family difficulties or a lack of happiness in your life, it helps to talk to someone. Many clients report strong feelings of anger, frustration, irritability, sadness or despair that they don't know how to handle, or that they are out of touch with their emotions. Talking with a counselor such as me offers you the chance to work through such emotions, gain a broader perspective, find hope, and change things that aren't working. If you think therapy might be helpful for you, or if you have any questions, please call or email me. You may also fill out the Inquiry Form to the left and then click on submit.

Are You Struggling to Make Peace with a Herpes Diagnosis? HerpesNY! provides a full range of consultation, counseling, and psychotherapy services for individuals who have received a herpes diagnosis and for their family members, other loved ones, and intimate partners. The Emotional Challenges Raised by the Herpes Virus It is widely acknowledged that the emotional challenges of the herpes virus tend to be far more challenging than the physical ones. In addition to practical matters in the areas of health, dating, and sexual intimacy, the herpes virus, for many individuals, serves as a "trigger" or precipitant for additional emotional or psychological reactions and responses. These reactions or responses may be experienced as more or less disabling to those diagnosed and to those closest to them. HerpesNY! provides a full range of consultation, counseling, and psychotherapy services for individuals who have received a herpes diagnosis and for their family members, other loved ones, and intimate partners. It is widely acknowledged that the emotional challenges of the herpes virus tend to be far more challenging than the physical ones. In addition to practical matters in the areas of health, dating, and sexual intimacy, the herpes virus, for many individuals serves as a "trigger" or precipitant for additional emotional or psychological reactions and responses. These may be experienced as more or less disturbing to those diagnosed and to those closest to them. HerpesNY! provides a full range of supportive and therapeutic services focusing on: * Crisis Intervention and stabilization. * Facilitation of healthy life adjustment. * Resolution of old traumas that may have been reactivated. * Resolution of relationship issues / building and strengthening healthy and supportive relationships. * Developing and enjoying (or moving back into and reclaiming!) a truly healthy and thriving lifestyle. Individual Counseling or Psychotherapy Individual counseling or psychotherapy is initially the service of choice during the early phases of coming to terms with the herpes virus and its emotional and social implications. This is often supplemented, however, by couples or family counseling or psychotherapy - to the degree that other individuals may also have been affected by the herpes diagnosis. Couples or Family Counseling or Psychotherapy Couples counseling or psychotherapy is often indicated to address issues regarding trust, sexual intimacy, choices regarding health consciousness and future safety, and, in some instances, real or perceived infidelity. Couples counseling or psychotherapy may be indicated for couples who have been together for long periods of time or for those who have come together more recently. An individual who has been diagnosed with the herpes virus may request couples services to assist in negotiating herpes-related issues with former partners or with new ones. Family counseling, including adolescents or children, may be indicated when an adolescent or child has been (regrettably) exposed to information regarding a parent or caregiver having received a herpes diagnosis - or when the individual who has been diagnosed is, themselves, an adolescent or child. Group Counseling or Psychotherapy Following initial stabilization, individuals who have been diagnosed with the herpes virus, or those who are closest to them, often receive great benefit from talking, within a safe and supportive environment, with others whose circumstances are similar. Workshops and Educational Seminars Workshops and educational seminars are offered to physician groups, mental health facilities, hospitals, and other interested community entities. Fees are negotiated based on the location and length of the workshop or semin

I specialize in children, adolescents, and adults who suffer from depression, anxiety disorders, etc. Most clients come with doubt as to how a stranger would help them. Having support by a therapist helps tremendously in reaching your therapy goals. Goals are met by the motivation each individual client has. Understanding a client where they are coming from is the first step a counselor does in order to develop a good rapport with clients. I do incorporate mindfulness in therapy but not all the time. Mindfulness is the ability to pay attention on purpose in the present moment. It is very beneficial in therapy. I am here to provide you the tools for you to succeed in your life. Once a client - counselor relationship has been established. then the real work begins! If you are searching for a therapist who is understanding and non-judgemental, please feel free to contact me.

I offer psychoanalytic psychotherapy to children, adolescents, adults, couples and families and groups in my private practice in East London and Central and through Skype. After two sessions of consultation I can offer once to five times per week sessions. Normally it takes at least one to two years to get results. I offer individual psychoanalytic psychotherapy for children, adolescents and adults that experience emotional difficulties in order to understand the unconscious reasons behind and to restore the balance in the mind. The setting that I offer is a space where the person can express whatever comes to the mind and to establish a relationship with me that will help the growing process. With children I use the play technique where the child uses the play and drawings to expresses the emotions and I give back an understanding of the meaning. With adolescent and adult the words are the main medium of meaning and understanding how to further the development process. From one session to four sessions per week is the space where is possible to explore the inner reasons of any psychological and emotional difficulties.

I offer a warm, safe space where we can identify issues of conflict and remove the stumbling blocks that are interfering with personal growth and happiness. I utilize a full-range of psychotherapeutic modalities to address behavioral challenges. We will work as a team towards your success. Your health, coping skills and relationships will benefit through the therapeutic process. You will learn solution focused strategies for the relief of symptoms such as anxiety and depression I also provide video counseling.
