My name is Molly van der Weij, I am a Dutch woman born in Amsterdam, living in the UK. Having worked in foreign countries since my early twenties, I have multi-cultural and multi-lingual experience with working closely with people in a wide range of professional settings. I am a fully qualified integrative counsellor, which means that of a variety of therapeutic modalities and approaches I will apply what feels most natural and suited to working with you. My work approach is relational and holistic. Your well-being is my main concern in the working relationship we will build.

I will accompany you alongside your work on and choices for healing yourself. You will be supported in your process of getting to know and understand your own thoughts, your needs and feelings, your fears and dreams. The underlying understanding of working together is that there needs to be a genuine wish for positive change. Counselling is a reflective, co-creative process in order to find clarity, peace of mind or to gain helpful insights for making positive changes and heal from deep-rooted issues.

I am Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP) and I abide by their Ethical Framework.
