Veronica Martin

I current offer face to face, online (zoom) and  telephone counselling. 

 My training is in the Integrative Humanistic approach which means that I offer a diverse way of working with people; exploring concerns in your personal life and how they are affecting your emotional health. This often involves looking at past events and experiences and how these are being replayed in your present circumstances. This can also include focusing on your sense of self and finding meaning in your own and or others behaviour and working together to find a way forward with empathy and without judgement.

I have over 15 years counselling experience including working with young people in education and the community and in a GP surgery as well as private practice. Covering a wide range on personal concerns;

Bereavement, Anxiety, Depression, Self -esteem, work related difficulties, stress, self harm, Couples/Relationship counselling/ Young People (11+).

My working background  includes experience in the health service and teaching in schools and further education

My private practice is based at Winchmore Hill Osteopathy and Natural Health Centre in Green Lanes. Sessions are usually 50 to 60 minutes in duration and weekly for an agreed period of time.
