“What lies behind us
and what lies before us
are small matters
compared to what lies within us.
And when we bring
what is within us
out into the world,
miracles happen"

Welcome...
Hello, I'm Tonia and I have been working as a therapist for over 25 years helping people transform their lives.
My healing practice includes:
Counselling / Psychotherapy
Reiki / Energy Healing
Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT)
Stress Management
Spiritual Coaching & Theta Healing
Holistic Practitioner
Clinical Supervisor / Student Mentor
My main aim is to help people to grow and move forward positively through challenging life events, trauma or just a desire to change amidst every day unhappiness. The essence of my work is to help find a sense of meaning and greater peace so that lasting joy, positivity and life mastery becomes ours again.
Life can either feel out of control when things happen that we don't feel sure about or conversely there is a feeling of stagnation / stuckness when we want change but don't seem to be able to make it happen.
The focus of my work has always been to help people face where they are, change what can be changed or accept what cannot, to find a way forward.
Elements of grief, fear and deeply buried unhelpful beliefs or life stories can all be processed to find balance & harmony again.
I see therapy as an art where clients and I collaborate on a powerful healing journey of discovery & self-empowerment.
The most important element of my work is a holistic, spiritual and heart centred approach freeing us from limitations (as much as possible!) and connecting us to our true selves and life purpose.
I have trained in and experienced many different healing & therapy modalities to provide bespoke therapeutic help, catering for different needs so that change can be on a lasting, deeper level to suit each client as an individual. My work incorporates elements of talking therapy, spiritual coaching, energy work and pragmatic tools to help clients to evolve and develop self-management to help themselves.
My experience has been gained through working with clients with a variety of issues, some of them listed below:
Anxiety, Depression & Stress
Bereavement, Grief & Loss
Phobias / Fearful Thoughts
Anger
Panic Attacks & Overwhelm
Work Difficulties
Trauma / PTSD
Abuse / Domestic Violence
Low Self Esteem & Confidence
Relationship & Family Difficulties
Divorce & Separation
Addiction (Substance Abuse)
Eating Disorders
Illness / Disability / Chronic Pain
Sexuality Issues
Self-Harm
There are multiple reasons why people find themselves needing support. Therapy aims to provide a safe, caring and confidential space to help them make sense of thoughts and feelings, change limiting beliefs and regain control of their lives.
Maybe one or more of the issues listed above and a desire to move on in your life is enough to enable you to make those first steps.
I am happy to offer a free initial chat with you to help you make that decision to see if we could be a good therapeutic fit and you feel comfortable working with me.
Areas covered include Ruislip, Eastcote, Northwood, Pinner, Harrow, Denham, Chalfont, Uxbridge, Hillingdon, Hayes, Pinner, Harefield, Middlesex.
Home visits can be arranged under certain circumstances.
I have many years' experience working online which allows me to support clients all over the country & across the world.
Lastly, life can be devastatingly hard, difficult and traumatic but also has great capacity for joy, growth and fulfilment.
Believe it is possible - that having the courage to pass through pain and trauma brings greater understanding, acceptance and personal growth.
Good luck on your journey, however you decide to make it and whoever you find to support you.
