Ilona | Couples and Individuals Counsellor
Counselling Reigate
My name is Ilona. I am a highly experienced counsellor providing short and long term therapy. My clients are central to my work and my practice was born from the desire to help people feel fulfilled, empowered and happy in their lives.
Whether you are in the midst of experiencing indefinable feelings of dissatisfaction or seeing to focus on a specific issue, I provide a safe and confidential setting in which thoughts and feelings can be discussed – free from judgement and prejudice.
I place a great emphasis on providing a safe, empathetic, non-judgemental space for you to discuss whatever is troubling you. As a counsellor I am there to support you and respect your views. My role is to help you find your own insights and understanding.
At our first session, you will get an idea of how I work. After that, you can decide whether you want to return for further sessions.
I work with both individuals and couples, dealing with a wide range of issues, such as:
- Anxiety and Panic Disorder
- Depression and Post Natal Depression
- Addictions
- Self Harm
- Infertility
- Pregnancy Loss
- Abortion
- Bullying
- Trauma
- Abuse
- Bereavement and Loss
- Relationship and Family Issues
- Stress and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
- Couples Counselling
My practice is located in Central Reigate. Free parking is available and I send my address once we have arranged to meet.
Online therapy
Online counselling is available via zoom / whatsapp etc. In case of a technological failure I will offer a voice call.
I also offer telephone therapy for those clients who find online counselling via video does not work for them.
