Teri Debney

Dip. Couns. MBACP

I am a qualified counsellor experienced in working with adults, young people, couples and family groups. I work in the Statutory and Voluntary sectors and have a private practice in South London with parking and easy access to tube and bus lines.

Counselling can help you to gain a clearer insight into yourself, others and your situation. My aim is to help you feel more empowered so that you can become confident in the choices and decisions you have to take in life.
I offer general counselling to clients who want help with things like :

Overcoming depression and anxiety
Dealing with stress and anger
Resolving relationship difficulties or crisis
Building self esteem, confidence and motivation
Managing a loss or trauma
Makng positive life changes.

I also have a particular interest in working with families and young people exploring parenting issues and difficulties arising during adolescence. I offer both short–term and long term counselling.

I have completed Diploma Courses in Psychodynamic/Intercultural Counselling and Systemic Family Therapy, as well as Certificates in CBT Life coaching and Educational Therapy. I am also a member of BACP.

These usually last 50 minutes. They take place regularly over an agreed period, usually at the same time each week. Consultation fees depend on partly on your personal circumstances and whether you come as an individual, couple or family group.
