Millie Burton, Integrative Counsellor, MBACP
I offer a space in which you and I can explore what may be blocking you from feeling more comfortable in yourself, your life and your relationships.
I am a fully trained integrative counsellor and a registered Member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP).
I work with individual adults of all ages in weekly sessions on a long-term, open-ended or short-term basis.
As an integrative counsellor, I bring to my work an interest in Attachment Theory, child development and relational body psychotherapy. This means that I will pay particular attention to your early childhood experiences and relationship patterns throughout your life, as well as our here-and-now embodied experience in the room, especially that which is difficult to articulate. Most importantly, I will listen and attend to what you bring to each session.
I have experience of working with relationship difficulties, depression, anxiety, chronic ambivalence and indecision, infertility, adoption and parenting.
As well as several years in private practice, I have worked in a play therapy setting with children at a South London primary school, and at adult therapy services in North and South London.
I hold a Diploma in Integrative Counselling from the Minster Centre.
I am a registered Member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy and I abide by their code of ethics.
I also belong to the following professional associations:
I am committed to regular continuing professional development to inform and enhance my practice.
As a client, it may feel daunting to meet a new or first therapist and it is important to find someone with whom you feel comfortable. The first session is an opportunity for us to get a sense of whether we can work together, and there is no obligation to continue if not.
If we agree to work together after an initial one or two sessions, we would arrange to meet at the same time each week for a limited or open-ended number of sessions. I currently have daytime availability only.
