Patricia Boles
Integrative psychotherapistAbout Me
Imagine being able to talk about what's bothering you to someone who won't judge you or try to "fix" things or make you feel you could be a burden. You may be experiencing anxiety (particularly now, due to Covid), depression, workplace stress, relationship issues or loneliness, going through a major life transition, are grieving after a bereavement, or simply feel stuck.
Counselling and psychotherapy allow you the freedom to say out loud what you may not feel able to share with others, in a nonjudgemental space. This can help provide you with a fresh perspective on what's troubling you, and give you a better understanding of your own emotions, so you feel less overwhelmed and weighed down by burdens and can move forward in life.
Issues can be hard to face alone, and counselling and psychotherapy give you the chance to talk things through. To find out whether you feel I can help you, please contact me to arrange an online initial meeting.

Training and qualifications
I hold a Masters degree in Integrative Psychotherapy and am a registered member of the BACP and UKCP. I am currently undertaking EMDR training.
Prior to becoming a counsellor and therapist, I worked in advertising and marketing and so have experience and understanding of working in a highly challenging, time pressured environment with the stress of deadlines and anxieties that can arise. I have experience working within companies as a stress counsellor and at Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust as a staff counsellor, dealing with stress, both personal and related to the workplace.
If you have problems managing sleep, I am trained in CBT for Insomnia and sleep problems. If this insomnia is a persistent problem for you, we can work specifically to help you manage this issue, for up to 5 sessions.
I am a recognized Private Practitioner with various insurers: Aviva, AXA, Aetna, Vitality.
