Welcome to Miranda Bart Therapy
A confidential space to explore your thoughts, feelings and challenges at your pace
COUNSELLING AND THERAPY FOR INDIVIDUALS
Welcome, and thank you for visiting Miranda Bart Therapy.
I’m a fully-qualified integrative counsellor offering both short- and long-term therapy to adult individuals. I offer online therapy sessions from Tuesday to Thursday, starting at 5pm providing a flexible and secure option for those who prefer the comfort of their own space. I also see clients on Mondays in person at my private clinics in Putney and Richmond.
I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and adhere to their ethical framework in my work.
MY APPROACH
Life can feel overwhelming at times—whether due to difficult relationships, painful experiences, or a general sense of being lost or stuck. As an integrative therapist, I draw on a range of approaches to tailor our work to your unique needs. I believe that meaningful change begins with a sense of safety in the therapeutic relationship. When we feel safe, we can start to explore the thoughts, emotions, and behaviours that may be causing distress or holding us back.
I work with clients from all walks of life, supporting a wide range of concerns. My compassionate and collaborative approach aims to create a trusting space for self-exploration. Together, we’ll look at how your past may be influencing your present, with the intention of helping you build a more fulfilling and meaningful life.
People come to me for help with a wide range of issues. Here are a few of the more common difficulties that can be supported through counselling:
Anxiety
Depression
Stress
Bereavement
Relationships
Self esteem
Trauma
Anger management
OCD
Phobias
Addictions
Work related issues
Self-harm
Eating disorders
A SECURE AND PROFESSIONAL SPACE TO BE HEARD
Counselling offers a confidential and supportive environment where you can share your thoughts and feelings openly. It’s a space where you’ll be met with respect, understanding and compassion- without judgement. Here, you are free to explore what’s on your mind and express yourself in complete confidence.
FINDING YOUR WAY THROUGH LIFE'S CHALLENGES
Challenges such as relationship difficulties, anxiety, panic attacks, low self-esteem, or depression are common experiences in everyday life. However, they can sometimes feel overwhelming to manage without support. Counselling offers a safe space to explore what you’re going through, understand the root causes, and find new ways of coping, healing, and moving forward.
DISCOVER NEW WAYS TO MOVE FORWARD
Working together, I can help you gain a deeper understanding of the difficulties you face, recognise patterns and beliefs that may no longer serve you, explore how you navigate them, and discover new ways to make healthier choices moving forward.
CONTACT ME
Feel free to contact me if you have any questions about how therapy works, or to arrange an initial free 20 minute consultation. This allows us to discuss your reasons for seeking therapy and to see whether I may be the right therapist for you.
All enquires are usually answered within 24 hours, and all contact is strictly confidential and uses secure phone and email services.
MY LOCATION
I offer secure online therapy to clients across the UK, including London, Putney, Greater Manchester, the South West, the Midlands, North East England, South Wales, and Scotland (covering Edinburgh, Glasgow, and beyond).
I offer face-to-face sessions every Monday from 8am to 4pm at my private practice in Putney and Richmond.
Please contact me if you wish to be added to the waiting list
FEES & AVAILABILITY
Each counselling session lasts 50 minutes and takes place weekly, online via Zoom. I offer both short-term and long-term therapy, depending on your needs.
Sessions are £70, payable by bank transfer before each appointment. I have a limited number of reduced-fee spaces available for students and those on a low income—please get in touch if you’d like to discuss this.
CANCELLATION
If you need to cancel or reschedule a session, I ask for at least 48 hours’ notice. Cancellations made with less than 48 hours’ notice will be charged at the full session rate.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Counselling and therapy are terms often used interchangeably, but they can sometimes describe different ways of working.
Counselling is often most helpful when you’re facing a specific concern in the present. It provides a safe, supportive space to talk things through, gain understanding, and explore practical steps forward. For many people, this can bring clarity and relief within a limited number of sessions.
Therapy, on the other hand, usually goes deeper. It looks at patterns, past experiences, and underlying issues that may be having a stronger or longer-lasting impact on your life. This kind of work often benefits from a more open-ended approach, giving time for reflection, growth, and lasting change.
The best fit depends on you and the challenges you’re facing. Sometimes short-term counselling provides just the right level of support, while at other times therapy offers the depth that’s needed.
I aim to offer a first appointment- an initial assessment within 1-2 weeks. After that, we’ll arrange regular weekly sessions at a time that works for you and fits with my availability. How soon these sessions can begin will depend on when a suitable time slot is free.
Yes. What you share with me is treated with care and kept private. This is one of the main differences between speaking with a trained professional and talking with a friend or family member—it provides a safe space where you can speak openly, without judgement and feel heard.
I work within the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) framework and regulations, which means confidentiality is central to my practice. I also meet regularly with a professional supervisor, who helps me reflect on my work to ensure you are receiving the best possible support. These discussions never include identifying details about you.
There are rare occasions when I may not be able to keep complete confidentiality- for example, if I believe you are at serious risk of harm to yourself or others, or if I am legally required to share information. If that situation ever arose, I would always do my best to discuss it with you first.
Most people find that knowing their sessions are private gives them the freedom to share what’s really on their mind, and this sense of safety is often one of the most valuable parts of therapy.
It’s completely natural to feel a little anxious about starting counselling or therapy, and sometimes people wonder if they can bring someone along for support. I understand that- it can feel like a big step.
Counselling is your space, and I want to hear your perspective, feelings, and experiences directly from you. During sessions, I will always ask questions and help clarify your thoughts if you’re finding it difficult to express yourself.
For this reason, I meet with clients one-to-one. This ensures the sessions remain focused on your experience while providing a safe space for you to explore and understand your feelings.
