Meet our Practitioners

Allison has been practicing for 30 years since qualifying from the British School of Osteopathy.

She has worked extensively with pregnant women, babies and children as well as providing osteopathic support for many people in their recovery from physical and emotional trauma and injury.

During the years since qualifying in Osteopathy Allison has explored a number of therapeutic modalities including:

• integrative baby therapy training , pre and perinatal work
• Shamanic practice
• Psychotherapeutic approaches to illness
• Meditation techniques
• Energy healing
• Nutritional aspects of health
• And various movement centred approaches to bodywork

This has helped to broaden her perspectives on healthcare and healing. Bringing a depth to her osteopathic practice and affording a wealth of knowledge upon which she draws to provide a unique treatment protocol for each client.

Allison has a strong belief in the healing potential of our bodies. She feels that if an individual is supported in understanding and resolving the issues which are impeding their recovery, remarkable change is possible.

I offer long and short term Counselling and Psychotherapy for individuals who are experiencing difficult periods or crises in their life and who want support to explore these issues, make some sense of them and develop new perspectives and directions.

Issues I work with include:
Anxiety and Panic Attacks; Depression; Abuse and Trauma experienced in childhood and / or adulthood; Relationship and Intimacy difficulties; Loss and Bereavement; Identity issues – who am I?; Loss of Meaning and Purpose in life; Self-confidence and Self-esteem issues; Stress.

I aim to provide a supportive and confidential space in which a trusting relationship can develop and explore the issues, discover the person’s own inner resources and new ways of being. It is widely recognised that the therapeutic relationship is important in facilitating the process of healing and growth.

I have a relational and integrative approach which incorporates several psychological theories including Psychodynamic Theory, Psychosynthesis and Advanced Integrative Therapy (AIT).
Psychodynamic Theory is concerned with issues that have developed in childhood and still affect us today.
Psychosynthesis considers the whole person: body, feelings, mind, sexuality and spirituality. It is concerned with our relationship to ourselves and others, periods of transition in our lives, personal goals and aspirations.
AIT is a gentle, wholistic and effective trauma treatment or energy treatment which promotes psychological, physical and spiritual healing. It treats not just the symptoms but the originating causes of present day difficulties (www.ait-uk-europe.com).

I studied Psychology at degree level and applied it to my work as a Social Worker for many years prior to training as a Counsellor and Psychotherapist. I attained my Diploma in Counselling from the Institute of Psychosynthesis in 2005 and my MA in Psychotherapy from the Psychosynthesis Education Trust, accredited by the University of East London in 2014. I have practiced at Keats since 2002.

Qualifications:

• BSc (Hons) Psychology

• Diploma in Counselling 

• MA in Psychotherapy

Professional Membership

• British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and the

As a systemic therapist and an EMDR practitioner, I see Connection as the key that opens windows and doors to a preferred future: by making better intellectual and emotional sense of the complex relationships between brain, mind and body we enable the building of bridges between people - and vice versa, because we are all built the same, but each of us has a different story, and many stories to tell.

My sessions last 90 minutes. I don't have to see people weekly, although this can be the case; often we leave two to three weeks between sessions, to allow for experiencing and testing the impact of the changes of perspective envisaged during our sessions. We decide on the frequency together.

EMDR provides an extraordinary, genuine, deep and lasting liberation from old, entrenched traumatic beliefs and patterns, by making use and making sense of the physical manifestations of traumatic experiences. Most people will be amazed at how quickly and completely they let go of and recover from years of disabling panic and anguish.

I have a background in psychoanalytical and psychodynamic theory, and am a full member of the Association of Family Therapy and of the EMDR Association for UK and Ireland. I worked for 15 years in a Child and Adolescent Mental Health and am now working privately in Enfield and London.

After completing the advanced gym apprenticeship in 2008, Darren decided he would improve his career by teaching studio fitness classes as well. At present he still teaches Circuit Training, Spinning and Pilates at the local Leisure Centres, based in Enfield.

Swedish Massage Therapy is a very effective form of massage that can aid relaxation by using the calming quality of touch. There are many techniques that together can relieve stiff muscles and joints, improve circulation and lymph drainage, calm the nervous system, aid digestion and excretion as well as improve skin tone.

I am a Highly Specialist Speech and Language therapist with many years of NHS and private sector experience. I have experience of working with a wide range of children and adults and I specialise in Learning Disabilities, Autism, Augmentative and Alternative Communication, including high tech devices such as Eye Gaze, iPads with specialist communication software and low tech visual aids, Makaton signing, PECS etc. I work with stammering of all ages. I can assist with speech sound difficulties, language development delay/disorder, developmental delay disorder and social skills training.  If you would like to discuss any speech and language concerns, please feel free to contact me for advice and guidance. I offer speech and language therapy in an empathic, warm and friendly manner based in the heart of Enfield Town. Fees: £75 per assessment session £50 per follow up therapy session.

Counselling

As a person-centred counsellor, my aim is to provide a genuine, caring service in the knowledge of how daunting but powerful counselling can be. We all have our own journey in life to navigate and I truly understand the need for a confidential, empathic, non-judgmental listener in those challenging times. As an experienced speech and language therapist in learning difficulties and complex needs, I am able to break down barriers in communication to enable everybody to find a way to express themselves whatever their level of ability in life. I am aware of the stress and anxiety related to disabilities and welcome all from this walk of life, including parents and carers. My counselling service aims to be kind, caring, honest but gentle because life can be tough.
I also have specialist knowledge of working with women who have experienced domestic violence and sexual abuse and have a Masters degree in this particular area. I have experience of working in a women's centre and welcome women seeking a safe place to talk in a gentle, non-judgemental way.
Take things at your own pace. Start to find your own solutions
We all have our past experiences. Of course, we need to examine the past but it is equally important to deal with the ‘here and now’ when we are feeling concerned, anxious, stressed or sad. I became a person centred counsellor because on my own personal counselling journey, I often wanted to be listened to about what was going in the present instead of a pressure to default analyse the past right away. We are all at different stages of our journeys and I respect that.
You choose the pace and depth you want to take and I will facilitate you.

I am Marged Cother, a registered Nutritionist, fitness professional and health coach.

While working in the City for over 10 years, I trained (too) hard, worked (too) hard and started to suffer. I was stressed, tired, my periods were irregular and my husband and I wanted to start a family. I had been interested in nutrition for many years, having qualified as a fitness instructor after losing a lot of weight in my 20s. And it became a true calling for me - I wanted to learn how to heal myself and others and eventually took the plunge despite holding down a senior role in a global bank.

I graduated with distinction after an intensive 3 year programme at the College of Naturopathic Medicine in London, including over 200 clinical hours seeing clients in the student clinic.

I am registered with British Association of Nutritional Therapists (BANT), the regulatory body that oversees nutritional therapists in the UK and the Complementary and Natural Health Council (CNHC), the register for complementary health practitioners who meet UK standards.

I have also been qualified as a fitness professional since 2007, and am a member of the Register of Exercise Professionals.

Why Nutrition?

With the continual stream of information about food at our fingertips, sometimes it can be overwhelming. Some people tell me they don't know what to eat anymore, and don't know how best to help themselves. I believe that food can be a powerful tool for health - it is something to be enjoyed, not feared.

I'll cut through the noise, use the latest research and provide down to earth, real-life solutions to help you get to the heart of your health issues, using a blend of scientific and naturopathic approaches.

What Can A Nutritionist Help With?

Nutrition and functional medicine can be a powerful approach for a wide range of issues including sugar cravings, stress, weight loss, hormone imbalance, digestive issues, bloating, fertility, stress, skin issues and low energy, amongst many others.

Who Do I Work With?

While I have a particular interest in fertility, hormones, energy, skin issues, stress management and gut health, I love to work with a variety of people to help them restore their health and get their spark back.

Testimonial

After extensive and thorough questions Marged provided me with a highly nutritional and balanced diet. With regular contact she ensured I was able to follow the plan she had put in place and was compassionate, supportive and professional throughout.

With a focus on building a healthy relationship with food, Marged has helped me achieve and maintain my main health goals as well as inspiring me to take better care of my overall wellness. I would happily recommend Marged as a Nutritionist.

Jazmin is a qualified massage therapist and member of MTI (Massage Training Institute). She first became interested in massage when she discovered its wide ranging benefits after sustaining an injury as a recreational runner while training for a half marathon. Ever since, her interest in pain relief and relaxation has grown steadily. Currently training on sports massage and remedial soft tissue therapy, Jazmin has an integrative approach mixing different techniques for maximum effect to address clients needs.

The therapeutic benefits of massage have been used for centuries to help address imbalances in the body and  support wellbeing. It can help to relax the muscles, release tension and re set the mind.

TREATMENTS AVAILABLE:

Deep tissue massage

Working on deeper muscle layers can help release patterns of tension. Deep tissue massage helps to loosen up the tissue relieving aches and pains and encouraging deep relaxation. People often complain of tender spots or ‘knots’ which can be targeted with deep tissue techniques.

Myofascial release 

Myofascial release can help release restrictions within the connective tissue (or fascia), thus enabling stuck, stiffened and dehydrated areas to become soft and flexible again. It can help to increase mobilisation and decrease stiffness that may result from chronic conditions or injury. 

Holistic massage

It entails a variety of techniques to soothe muscles and promote relaxation. With gentle and long strokes in the direction of the heart, holistic massage stimulates circulation and flush of metabolic waste. It provides a general sense of wellbeing and can help relieve stress and fatigue.

Testimonial:

“I usually have so much tension and pain on my back...however Jazmin applies the correct pressure every time, leaving me super refreshed and relaxed. She knows exactly the right areas to work on”
