Welcome, and thank you for visiting Adrian Perks Counselling & Psychotherapy
Are you feeling overwhelmed by life's challenges? Perhaps your child is struggling with anxiety or school refusal, or you're an adult grappling with past experiences that still impact your daily life. These feelings are valid, and seeking support is a positive first step.
Whether you're a parent concerned about your child's emotional wellbeing, someone dealing with trauma, or an adult looking to understand yourself better, I'm here to help you navigate this journey.
I provide integrative counselling and psychotherapy services to children (aged 4+), adolescents, and adults. As a UKCP-registered Child & Adolescent Psychotherapist and BACP member, I offer both long and short-term therapy, tailored to your specific needs. My approach combines various therapeutic methods, including EMDR therapy, enabling me to work flexibly with different challenges and concerns.
I specialise in supporting:
Sessions are available both in-person at my Monument practice in Central London or online, providing flexibility to suit your circumstances.
Child & Adolescent Therapy
Working with children and young people to address emotional challenges, behavioural issues, and family dynamics. I use play-based and talking therapies, offering either individual child sessions or joint parent-child sessions using DDP (Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy) informed approaches.
EMDR Therapy
A powerful therapeutic approach for processing trauma and difficult experiences. EMDR can help both children and adults move past stuck points and develop new, healthier perspectives on past experiences.
Support for Adopted Adults
Specialised therapy for adopted adults exploring identity, attachment, and life experiences. Drawing from extensive experience in adoption support services, I provide a safe space to process and understand your unique journey.
How Counselling and Psychotherapy Can Help
Therapy provides a confidential, non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings safely. Through our work together, you'll develop better understanding of yourself and your experiences, leading to lasting positive change.
Whether you're dealing with immediate challenges or long-standing issues, therapy can help you develop new coping strategies, understand and process difficult emotions, improve relationships with yourself and others, build resilience and self-confidence, and find new perspectives on past experiences. The therapeutic relationship we build together creates a secure foundation for this important work, allowing you to explore and grow at your own pace.

My location
All sessions take place either at my practice near Monument in Central London or online via a secure platform.
My practice is based at the Monument Therapy Rooms in the heart of Central London, which is easily accessible from the City, Southwark, Greenwich, Tower Hamlets, Hackney, and Islington. The practice is ideally situated for professionals working in the City and residents in surrounding London boroughs.
Cancellation Policy
I understand that life can be unpredictable, however, I require 48 hours' notice for cancellations. Sessions cancelled with less than 48 hours' notice will be charged at the full fee. This policy helps me maintain a reliable service for all clients.
Payment can be made via bank transfer or cash (if preferred). Fees are reviewed annually, and any changes will be discussed with you in advance.
Concessions
I believe therapy should be accessible to those who need it. I reserve a limited number of reduced-fee spaces for students and people on low incomes. Please contact me to discuss availability and rates for these sessions.
You'll find me just a short walk from Monument Underground station, and within easy reach of London Bridge, Bank, and Cannon Street stations. This central location is well-served by numerous bus routes and is just minutes from the Thames Path for those who prefer to walk or cycle.
Take the first step
