Meet Joel
Hi, I'm Joel, a BACP Registered Therapist and Certified Professional Coach (CPC) working in Clapham (London), Tonbridge (Kent) and online. I work with adults in short, medium and long term therapy for a wide range of issues, with particular interest in addictions, men's issues, codependency* and relationship issues.
*Codependency is being overly focused on taking care of others at the expense of one's own happiness, often relying on the approval of others for sense of worth.
With a 20+ years career in education and training, I'm passionate about education and all forms of personal growth, supporting people in different contexts to develop themselves and be fulfilled in their lives.​
​
My style is relaxed, friendly, empathic and creative. I love stimulating insight and self-awareness with clients, often using different tools and techniques in sessions to support this.​
​
My practice can be described as integrative with a person-centered core. The person-centered tradition believes individuals have a natural tendency towards their own well-being and growth, and that my job as a therapist is to help you connect or reconnect with this powerful human driver.

I offer a free 20 minute initial chat, to find out if we may be a good fit to work together and to answer any questions you may have.​ I look forward to hearing from you. Please can contact me here.
