Counselling


If you are reading this, it may be that you are experiencing a difficult time and seeking support to help you work through the challenges you are facing. I hope my profile provides you with some insight about what you can expect from counselling, but please feel free to call me if you would prefer to talk on the phone (details below). I offer a free initial 20-minute consultation by phone because I appreciate how important it is that you feel comfortable with your therapist. 

I am a qualified Integrative Counsellor, which means that I can draw from different approaches to tailor my support to meet your unique needs. Regardless of your reason for coming to therapy, I put you at the centre of our work together. I will support you in whatever it is you want to talk about, by providing a safe space, free of judgement. We will explore your experiences, needs and frustrations, from your perspective. Using a range of therapeutic techniques, I will help you gain better insight into your own unique inner world. 

It is likely you will find the therapeutic relationship a very different experience to other relationships in your life, and this is often how change can happen. Our work together will provide you with a new perspective, and strategies and tools you can implement in daily life to help you feel more resilient, regardless of what life throws at you. This can be incredibly freeing - even life changing.

I provide both online and in-person weekly counselling sessions, and work with clients on a variety of issues on a long-term and short- term basis, depending on their unique needs. I also have a special interest and experience in working with people with hoarding tendencies.

HYPNOTHERAPY, MOTIVATIONAL COACHING & BEREAVEMENT COUNSELLING

HELLO AND A WARM WELCOME.

As a registered hypnotherapist whose own transformative experience of hypnotherapy inspired me to choose this career, I’d love to make a difference to your life.

Having worked on an operational level for several years for more than one counselling service including No5 Young People, I’ve had the benefit of gaining significant insight into the issues that people are consistently struggling with that have become all the more impactful since the end of lockdown. We are what we think and how we feel about ourselves affects the choices that we make and how we make them. Our inner narrative is what guides us and it can make or break us. This is where hypnotherapy can be a powerful tool to help us take control of our lives, break negative habits and discover our new better self.

Are you struggling with stress, anxiety, wanting to stop smoking, IBS, negative habits or having issues with your weight?

Or are you an 18+ student suffering with pre-exam stress and unable to get the level of support you need from counselling services at your college/university?

Perhaps you’d like to empower your inner self and shift your emotional and psychological mindset, but don’t know where to begin?

Some of the conditions I can help you with are:

· Anxiety

· Low self-esteem

· IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome)

· Weight loss/emotional eating

· Smoking cessation

· Menopausal stress

· Negative habits

· Pain management

· Insomnia

· Irrational fears

· Exam stress (for over eighteens)

· Releasing romantic relationships

· Recovering from narcissistic relationships

I specialise in anxiety, low self-esteem and weight loss. In addition I provide targeted support for 18+ students regarding pre-exam stress. I also offer motivational coaching packages and bereavement counselling to support you, whether the loved one that you lost was a person or pet.

You matter, so why not take the first step in becoming your better self by booking a free initial consultation.

Veronica Prasad-Woodcock

BA Hons MBACP Accred

Counselling, Counselling Supervison


Counselling
I am a BACP accredited Counsellor and qualified Supervisor based in Reading. I offer counselling to adults 18+ who are experiencing difficulties in their lives such as stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, bereavement, depression, sadness, discrimination, cultural or identity issues or other.  Whether you are considering counselling because you are struggling now or maybe trying to better understand something in particular in the past or present, talking to a counsellor can be a very helpful space. A supportive, nurturing, safe and non-judgemental space allows for exploration, discovery and better understanding which may lead to new or different ways of being in the world.  Student counsellors are very welcome .
I work in a person-centred way which means I am led by what is important to you. The therapeutic relationship is a very crucial aspect of counselling and my belief and experience have shown that if this is established in a boundaried setting clients are likely to feel that they can safely explore and express their concerns which will encourage transformation and new or different choices.  I will listen sincerely with empathy and with genuine interest and curiosity to you without judgement.  If needs be I sometimes draw on tools and techniques from other modalities such as CBT or mindfulness to facilitate understanding and awareness as it is important to have a flexible approach so that the uniqueness of each client is acknowledged and facilitated.

Supervision
My aim is to facilitate an open, safe and containing space where reflection about your practice and your clients is encouraged.
A space where you will feel able to express or identify what you need in order to promote good practice, whether its feeling stuck, exploring new ways of working, identifying areas for professional development, focusing on self-care and also acknowledging what you are doing well.  I welcome students, experienced and newly qualified Counsellors.  Before starting supervision, we can start with a phone call or ZOOM.  This will give us both the opportunity to get a feel for the process and how we can work together.  We can work out what your supervisory needs are and what your hopes and goals may be.  There will also be time for you to ask any questions you might have about supervision and or my approach.

I always enjoyed observing and listening to people since my childhood.  Bilingual (English and Czech), and with a people-focused career path, I have inevitably seen the vast range of stressful triggers and the  psychological and physiological responses to these triggers across a diverse selection of clients. 

For the past 15 years, I have worked closely with the Harley Street’s  plastic surgery consultants helping patients address surgery-related  anxiety; assisted clients with drug and alcohol addictions at the Westminster Drug Project and provided CBT and Clinical Hypnotherapy to  private and NHS clients who have had trouble managing various  addictions, anxiety, phobias, depression, interpersonal and psychosexual problems.  

As well as my private practice, I also work as a Clinical  Hypnotherapist  and a CBT Psychotherapist at The Royal Brompton Hospital in London, where I specialise in chronic pain management, depression as well as health anxiety.  

I am an associate CBT Psychotherapist for the Priory Group, Wellbeing  Centre in Harley  Street in London and for Vita Health Group where I assist corporate clients, referred by their insurance provider, primarily with the management of anxiety, stress and  depression.  

I am an accredited member of both, the Association of Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy (AREBT) and The British Association for Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies (BABCP) and an accredited member of  British Society of Clinical Hypnosis (BSCH).
