Counselling & Psychotherapy ยท London, Guildford, Petersfield, Online
Life can throw up many different challenges.
When times are tough, talking is a way to figure things out.
The Relational Practice
Welcome to The Relational Practice, a home for therapy and support. We offer one-to-one talking therapy for adults who are looking to work through all kinds of challenges. We have built a safe and confidential space where you can speak openly about what's going on in your life. We offer a choice of therapists so you can find the right person with whom you feel comfortable and can build a therapeutic relationship with.
We work with adults dealing with a wide range of things: anxiety, depression, grief, burnout, relationship difficulties, major life transitions, and things that are harder to name. Some clients come to therapy to understand themselves better, or why some patterns keep repeating in their lives. If you're not sure whether what you're going through is 'enough' to bring to therapy, it probably is.
Why we call it The Relational Practice
There are a lot of methods in therapy and our therapists are trained across several of them. But The Relational Practice speaks to our ethos borne of the belief that the relationship between therapist and client and how they meet each other, how much trust develops over time, is what actually makes therapy work. More than any particular technique.
That shapes how we practise, and it shapes who we bring into the practice.
Our therapists
Everyone at The Relational Practice is fully qualified and professionally accredited through either the BACP or the UKCP. But we also care about the less measurable things: warmth, honesty, and genuine curiosity about the people they work with.
Where we are
We have therapy rooms in Ealing (West London), Guildford (Surrey), and Petersfield (Hampshire). We also work online, and for many people a mix of in-person and online suits them well.
