Reshmi Marmion

Reshmi Marmion is training as an integrative counsellor with The Awareness Centre’s low-cost counselling service in Tooting.  She has an MA in Psychology and is working towards a Diploma in Integrative Counselling.  Reshmi is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and the British Psychological Society.

Reshmi provides a warm and compassionate space where the client is heard and acknowledged as they deal with life’s challenges.  Collaboration is at the heart of her person-centred approach, working with clients to identify obstacles, opportunities and capacity for development. Integrative training enables her to draw on different ways to help clients make sense of thoughts, feelings and frustrations that prevent them from leading fulfilling lives.  When encountering these barriers with clients, Reshmi creates the environment for them to understand and unlock their resources to move forward.

Her background as a business change consultant for large and small organisations, means she can offer a deep understanding of the impact of pressures and demands on people in the workplace as well as opportunities for growth. Throughout her career in business, she has helped organisations and individuals to influence and adapt to change and develop resilience.  Having volunteered at a charity for the elderly, she is particularly interested in the experiences of people as they transition to retirement and deal with the broader implications of aging in British society, from a personal and professional perspective. She is curious about life transitions more generally and believes that we continue to learn and grow throughout our lives.
