Angie Fernandes

I currently have availability, on a Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday face to face or online.

I am an integrative therapist, working with various modalities, such as Humanistic, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. I am a Trauma Informed therapist, and also work as a Ketamine assisted therapist. I believe in creating a supportive and empathetic environment where clients can feel safe to explore their thoughts and feelings. I am also a Reiki master teacher, and Mindfulness coach, with a background in Holistic therapies. I have been a therapist since 2016, and have experience of working with a variety of issues such as stress, anxiety, phobias, relationship issues, addictions, PTSD, eating disorders, and bereavement. 

Therapy can be daunting, and scary, it is a brave step, and can be difficult for some people. I provide a warm, welcoming, safe confidential space in a beautiful calm, private setting in a wellness centre. I work with an ethical framework, as a member of the BACP, and am fully insured.

Your first session will include an assessment, to ensure your needs are being met, and to decide which counselling method is suitable. 

My name is Angie and I am a fully qualified counsellor and a registered member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I hold a CPCAB Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling and a PGCE Certificate in Education.

I offer counselling from my private practices in Ongar and Barkingside, Essex, as well as London, and provide online and telephone counselling. I am fully insured to work with individuals, couples, groups, and clients of all ages, including children.

I work integratively, drawing on a range of therapeutic approaches including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Person-Centred Therapy, Hypnotherapy, and Unconscious Mind Therapy. This approach allows me to tailor each session to your individual needs, goals, and circumstances, offering a safe, supportive, and non-judgemental space to explore thoughts, feelings, and experiences at your own pace.

As a BACP member, I work within a strict ethical framework and attend regular clinical supervision to ensure best practice. All counselling sessions areconfidential, respectful, and empathetic.

Alongside my private practice, I am also a Counselling Lecturer and Examiner, working with a range of awarding bodies and educational institutions. This role supports my clinical work by keeping my practice informed by current theory and ongoing professional development.

Where appropriate and with client consent, I also integrate counselling with complementary and holistic approaches, including Breathwork, Meditation, Sound Healing, Reiki, Reflexology, and Aromatherapy. In addition, I am a qualified Psychedelic-Assisted Therapist and Integration Coach.

I have a private practice in Ongar, and Barkingside Essex, but also offer telephone and online counselling, and am insured to work with all age groups, individuals and couples.
