Ellen Hage
Child & Adolescent Therapist
From £95 per session
I have worked therapeutically with teenagers and their families for more than 16 years in a diverse range of settings including the NHS, state schools and the private education sector. Working with young people as they go through the more painful chapters of their adolescence has always been, and continues to be, a privilege and an honour that I take great care and sensitivity in.
My philosophy on delivering supportive counselling is based on active listening, the importance of asking curious questions, speaking with tactful honesty and a willingness for both therapist and teen to be open to exploring the unknown and the unsaid. My therapy framework is informed by psychodynamic, person centered and systemic models and is influenced by attachment and inter-cultural work. In my practice, counselling is a collaborative experience whereby myself and the young person explore and think together about their current struggles. I actively listen, seek to deeply understand and validate experiences, provide observations and create opportunities for reflection. This process allows the individual to gain insight into themselves and others, identify helpful and unhelpful coping strategies and foster personal growth.
I have experience in many common yet difficult struggles that can occur during adolescence, including but not limited to: anxiety, bereavement, relational difficulties (with self or others), identity exploration, low moods and third culture kid difficulties.

Noemie Redon
Psychotherapist & Art Psychotherapist
From £110 per session
I am an HCPC Registered Art Psychotherapist and experienced psychotherapist working with adults, adolescents and university students. I offer a warm, thoughtful and non-judgemental space where you can explore what may be feeling difficult, overwhelming or stuck. I work with a range of issues including anxiety, low mood, relationships, trauma, loss, emotional regulation and periods of transition.
My approach is integrative, relational and trauma-informed. I believe that therapy develops through a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship, and I adapt my approach to each person's individual needs. Sessions can be entirely verbal, and where helpful I can also offer creative, visual or sensory ways of exploring experiences that may be difficult to put into words. There is no expectation to make art or to have any artistic experience.

Lucy Jonas
Clinical Psychologist
From £120 per session
I am a qualified Clinical Psychologist who is passionate about supporting children, adolescents and their families through challenging periods in their lives. I believe that every young person has their own strengths and capacity for change, and I value creating a space where they feel understood, safe and empowered to explore what matters to them. I bring warmth, compassion and enthusiasm to my work, and believe that building a trusting relationship is at the heart of therapy.
I draw on different therapeutic approaches to find what feels most helpful for each child or young person. This might involve exploring the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours through Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT); developing a kinder relationship with ourselves through Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT); or finding ways to move towards the things that matter to us, even when difficult thoughts and feelings get in the way, through Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). My work is grounded in a trauma-informed, neurodevelopmentally affirmative and culturally sensitive approach. I adapt therapy to each young person’s age, needs and circumstances, finding creative and engaging ways to help younger children express themselves and explore their feelings. I also value working alongside parents and families, drawing on their knowledge of their child to understand their experiences and identify practical ways to support them.

Psychotherapist and Internal Family Systems Therapist

Charmaine Zahra
Psychotherapist and Internal Family Systems Therapist
From £85 per session
I’m an integrative psychotherapist with specialist training in Internal Family Systems (IFS). The approach I use is ultimately determined by your needs and preferences. I work with a wide range of issues, but my areas of special interest are in Relationships, Estrangement and Grief. I bring both professional training and lived experience to my work, which allows me to sit alongside you with genuine care, curiosity, and compassion.
Relational pain can run deep. Whether it’s the ache of loss, emotional disconnection, attachment wounds, or family estrangement. You might find yourself overwhelmed, anxious, numb, or stuck in patterns that don’t make sense. You might have very high standards for yourself and harsh self-criticism when these standards aren’t met. Maybe you’ve read all the books and made all the connections, but something still doesn’t shift.
My style is warm, collaborative, and down-to-earth. I won't sit in silence or pretend to have all the answers, and I won't offer quick fixes either. Instead, we'll work together to understand what your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours might be communicating. Often, these responses developed for good reasons and once helped you cope, even if they're no longer serving you today.
On a personal level, I am of Maltese origin and have been living in the UK for 20 years. I love animals and nature and my free time I like to get creative in the kitchen, read a good book and connecting with loved ones.
My approach is relational, collaborative, and trauma-informed. I don’t believe in quick fixes or simply managing symptoms. Instead, I help you explore what’s underneath, i.e. what your anxiety, emotional reactivity, shutdown, or self-criticism might be trying to protect you from.
I draw on a variety of therapeutic approaches but specialise in Internal Family Systems (IFS). IFS is a powerful and compassionate way of working with inner conflict and behaviours we don’t understand. Rather than pushing past the parts of you that resist change, IFS helps us engage with them curiously and respectfully, so they can soften and heal.
Many of my clients arrive with deep insight into their trauma. They understand why they feel the way they do but still find themselves stuck. That’s because insight alone doesn’t heal trauma - connection does. IFS allows for this deeper connection to happen, not just intellectually, but emotionally and somatically.
Through our work together, you’ll begin to understand yourself in a new way. Clients often describe feeling lighter, more spacious, and better able to regulate emotions and communicate with loved ones. They feel more self-compassionate and more grounded.
Clients often tell me they feel at ease in our sessions. They appreciate the way I help them go deeper gently, how I ask the right questions at the right time, and how I honour both their pain and their potential. My aim is not just to help you understand yourself better, but to feel freer, more whole and more at peace in your internal world.

Roberta Crescenzo

I am Roberta Crescenzo, an experienced psychotherapeutic counsellor offering both short-term and longer-term therapy in South West London and online. I have extensive experience working with adults from diverse backgrounds and with a wide range of personal, emotional and relational difficulties.
My approach is integrative, which means I draw on different therapeutic perspectives according to each person’s individual needs, circumstances and goals. I offer a warm, safe and confidential space where you can explore what is troubling you at a pace that feels right for you. Attachment theory is an important part of my therapeutic approach. I am particularly interested in how our early experiences and relationships can influence the way we understand ourselves, relate to others and respond to difficulties in our adult lives. Exploring attachment patterns can help us develop a deeper understanding of recurring relationship difficulties, anxiety, insecurity, emotional responses and ways of coping, while creating opportunities for greater self-awareness and more fulfilling relationships. Alongside attachment-based therapy, I draw on Person-Centred, Psychodynamic, Gestalt, CBT, Transactional Analysis, Mindfulness and Transpersonal approaches. I work collaboratively, adapting the therapy to the individual rather than following a fixed model. My aim is to help you make sense of your experiences, understand patterns that may be affecting your present life and develop greater choice in how you respond. I have a long history of working as a counsellor and psychotherapist across the private and voluntary sectors.
I have a particular interest in supporting people experiencing anxiety, relationship difficulties, inner conflict and the pressures of everyday life, including those trying to balance their emotional wellbeing with working and family life. Therapy can be helpful for many different reasons, and there is no single way of approaching it.
I offer short-term counselling focused on a specific concern as well as open-ended psychotherapy for those who wish to explore deeper or longer-standing patterns.
Whatever brings you to therapy, I believe that feeling understood, respected and safe is an important starting point for meaningful therapeutic work. I place great importance on clarity, professional boundaries and ethical practice, and aim to provide therapy that is thoughtful, respectful and grounded.

Debra Drukarz
Psychodynamic Therapist / Counsellor
From £90 per session
Debra Drukarz
Psychodynamic Therapist / Counsellor
From £90 per session
I am a psychodynamically trained therapist. My professional journey has been rich and varied, spanning a career as a Commercial Solicitor and an Executive Director in the not-for-profit sector.
Like many, I have navigated my own life challenges and therapy has been a profound tool in helping me live more intentionally, making choices that align with who I truly am. This personal experience fuels my passion for helping others do the same.
I offer a safe, supportive and non judgmental space, where we will build a trusting relationship to explore what has brought you to therapy. Together, we will unpack your thoughts and feelings, gaining insight into how they shape your decisions and influence the way you live your life.
As a psychodynamic therapist, I believe that many of the struggles we face stem from early experiences that shape how we see ourselves, others and the world. These unconscious patterns can limit our potential and make life's inevitable challenges at times feel overwhelming.
In our work together we will look at those early experiences to understand how past relationships and patterns may have shaped your ways of thinking, feeling and protecting yourself. Sometimes, these early coping strategies no longer serve us well in adult life, especially in our personal and professional relationships.
I won't offer advice or solutions, but I will listen deeply, provide insights and gently challenge certain patterns of thought when appropriate. The goal is to help you reflect on whether these long held ways of being still support you, or whether they may be limiting your potential, by keeping you stuck.
Therapy can be challenging and at times painful, as we work through and process past hurts and difficult emotions. However, the process of becoming more self-aware, of living a conscious, intentional life rather than reacting to old patterns, can be deeply rewarding.
Our work together will be collaborative. In this space, all parts of you can be explored with curiosity and care. Healing past wounds and gaining clarity and agency, can open the door to you creating a more fulfilling, considered, self-compassionate and authentic life.
