Phoebe Gorry

I work online, with clients across the UK and internationally.

I also have a face to face practice in Surbiton.

My working hours are: Monday - Friday, 7am - 6pm.

Hello and welcome!

I'm Phoebe, a BACP-accredited counsellor and psychotherapist known for my deep empathy.

Sometimes life can be messy and it can be difficult to navigate your way through. I'm passionate about helping people gently untangle and sort through each thread, to make sense of what's happening.

I work with adults and young people experiencing a wide range of life challenges, including but not limited to anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, grief & loss, panic attacks, relationship difficulties, family challenges and confusion about identity.

Perhaps you're feeling really sad, or anxious and overwhelmed?

You might notice that you're stuck in familiar patterns, struggling with how you feel about yourself, or finding it difficult to make sense of experiences that you know are impacting you.

Maybe something doesn't feel right, but you're not sure exactly what it is, or what you need.

Come and have chat about it.

I understand that deciding to come to therapy, and finding the right therapist, can feel really daunting. My aim is to make this process as gentle and accessible as possible. I offer a free initial 30-minute session so you can test the waters and see whether I feel like the right fit for you.

In my therapy practice, I hold space - a confidential space for to share and explore at your own pace. I’ll never push you to talk about anything before you’re ready - instead, I’ll stay alongside you, supporting you to unfold your feelings in whatever way feels safest.

My therapeutic approach

I'm an integrative therapist with a specialism in trauma therapy, drawing from a range of approaches so therapy can be tailored to your individual needs.

My grounding is in person-centred philosophy, trusting your inner sense of direction and capacity for growth.

I also draw on psychodynamic ideas, exploring how early relationships and attachment patterns can shape how we relate to ourselves, others, and the world around us.

I'm particularly interested in the connection between mind and body, and how emotional experiences can be held not only in our thoughts, but throughout the body.

"The mind is like the wind and the body like the sand: if you want to know how the wind is blowing, you can look at the sand". (Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen).

I trained with world renowned somatic trauma specialist Babette Rothschild, and my work integrates somatic, Gestalt and inner-child approaches, supporting you to explore difficult experiences, understand patterns that may no longer serve you, and develop a more compassionate relationship with yourself.

My Creative Background

Alongside my clinical training, I bring over 15 years of experience in the creative industries, having worked as a performer before retraining as a psychotherapist. Creativity is central to my practice, and I sometimes work with imagery, metaphor and embodied awareness to facilitate deeper insight.

I have particular experience supporting creatives and freelancers, and understand the challenges of uncertainty, self-doubt, creative blocks and blurred work–life boundaries.

I'm a GSRD-affirmative therapist with extensive experience working with LGBTQIA+ clients. I welcome people from all backgrounds and offer concessions where possible to help make therapy more accessible.

**I reply to all enquiries within 12 hours. There may be instances where my email reply to your enquiry travels into your junk folder. Please be sure to check this if you don't hear from me following an enquiry**

I offer a free initial 30-minute session via video call, so you can test the waters and see whether I feel like the right fit for you.
