Approach Counselling and Coaching
Tottenham Hale and North London

Counselling, Psychotherapy and Life Coaching in Tottenham Hale, North London( N17 9GD)

My name is Ulrike Adeneuer-Chima and I am an MBACP accredited Counsellor and Psychotherapist. I offer counselling, psychotherapy and life coaching for individuals and couples of all ages - gay, hetero and bisexual.

Do you feel you need to talk with someone neutral who is outside your circle of family and friends and will listen to your concerns in a non- judgmental way? If so, both counselling and psychotherapy can help you.

In addition, I offer life, performance and wellness coaching for individuals of all ages.

My main counselling and coaching practice is in North London, Tottenham, Hale Village, N17 7GD , 8 minutes from Tottenham Hale tube and train station, only two tube stations away from Finsbury Park and a couple of bus stops away from Edmonton and Wood Green.
Since January 2019 I also see clients for Counselling and Psychotherapy in Shoreditch, only 8 minutes walk from Liverpool Street.

Due to the coronavirus epidemic, I currently only offer online counselling, supervision and coaching by Skype or Zoom, as well as telephone counselling. I want to ensure you that all calls are strictly confidential and none of the calls are recorded.
I offer reduced fees to people who have lost their job due to COVID 19 and students. I realise that online or telephone counselling might be a very different experience for you compared to seeing a counsellor face to face. I therefore offer the first session for free so that you can check out if online or telephone counselling would work for you. I also offer a 15 minutes free chat on the phone where you can check out if counselling would work for you. To arrange a time for a chat or general enquiry please email me and I will email you back with times and dates for a chat.

My Approach

Within the spectrum of theoretical approaches I would describe my approach as Humanistic Counsellor and Psychotherapist in general. I work in a client-centred way, always approaching the client as a whole person.

I use Rational Emotive and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, Transactional Analysis Psychotherapy, Traumatic Incident Reduction (TIR) and Trauma Therapy, Person Centred Counselling, Psychodynamic and Transpersonal Psychotherapy, depending on the need of the client. I choose the most suitable approach at the assessment session as I do not believe that one model helps every client. When working with children and adolescents, I use sand tray therapy or art therapy and CBT specifically with adolescents. I also offer short term therapy for children and adolescents in crisis to provide containment and risk management until they will be seen by the NHS. I offer long and short-term therapy in an effort to facilitate growth, change and healing of the whole person.
