Relational therapy is more of a general approach, rather than a specific therapeutic method. A therapist who takes a relational approach in their therapeutic practice highlights the importance of the way a client relates to others. Many people find themselves in therapy due, in some part, to the status of their relationships and relational therapy seeks to help the client understand that the way they interact with others can be a central motivation. Ultimately, a relational approach can help a client to create and maintain healthier and more fulfilling relationships.

My name is Marton Kara and I hold a master's degree in psychology, a post-graduate degree in Hypnotherapy and a PGDip in Dialectical Behaviour Therapy - DBT. I work as a HCPC-registered Counselling Psychologist, an SfDBT accredited DBT Therapist, Hypnotherapist and Systemic Facilitator.
I offer hypnotherapy, talk therapy, individual DBT and counselling in English and in Hungarian online and in my offices in CHISWICK and WIMBLEDON, London.
I have been an active psychologist since 2016, having held a voluntary post in oncology for four years providing supportive therapy in a team of professionals. Later on, I began working with patients on an adult psychiatric intensive care unit (PICU) and in acute inpatient care services experiencing severe and enduring mental health difficulties such as psychosis or bipolar disorder. I have also been working with people experiencing emotional and relational difficulties in the community. as well as with refugees in the field of mental health. I have also been working closely with an Autism Team in the NHS, providing support for people on the spectrum. I have extensive experience in the management of common mental health problems such as chronic stress, bereavement, emotional difficulties, trauma, impulsivity control, anxiety, adjustment disorder, sleep disorder, pain management, and recovering from serious illnesses. I am also interested in spirituality and hold an open mind for such practices.
My continuous professional development has included 280 hours of Hypnotherapy Training, 270 hours of Psychodrama Training, 300 hours of personal therapy in Hypnotherapy and Existential Therapy and more than 200 hours of Systemic and Family Constellation Therapy.
My goal as a therapist is to work together with you in your own pace to discover your own internal resources for personal growth to help you understand yourself better and lead a more fulfilling, emotionally balanced life. I consider my therapeutic approach integrative, based on humanistic principles with a strong emphasis on the importance of the therapeutic relationship and a systemic approach. I tend to think of each person I work with as a unique and irreplaceable mosaic-pattern puzzle thus I treat them with great care and respect. My main area of expertise is hypnotherapy, but I also use elements of cognitive-behavioural therapy, DBT and psychodrama. I feel most comfortable incorporating dreams, imagery, symbols, and other unconscious material in my therapeutic work, but can be rather rational and goal-oriented depending on what I feel would help you the most. I am also interested in spirituality and have had training in shamanic practices at The Foundation for Shamanic Studies Europe.

Finding a therapist you feel comfortable with is deeply personal. I believe that feeling safe, seen, heard and accepted can be an important part of meaningful change.
I am a qualified Integrative Counsellor and a Registered Member of the BACP. I work relationally and integratively, which means that rather than following one fixed way of working, I draw on different therapeutic perspectives while keeping you and your individual experience at the centre of the work.
My approach is relational, collaborative and individual to you.
I offer a space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, relationships and experiences without feeling that you need to present yourself in a particular way. I will listen carefully to what you bring while also being curious about patterns, relationships and experiences that may help us understand what is happening for you.
As an integrative counsellor, my training allows me to draw from different therapeutic approaches depending on your needs. My work is influenced particularly by relational and attachment-informed thinking, alongside an awareness of the impact that trauma, environment and neurodivergence can have on the way we experience ourselves and the world.
For me, therapy is not about telling you what to do or deciding what something means for you. It is something we explore together, at a pace that feels manageable and meaningful to you.
I work with both present-day difficulties and experiences from the past, including situations where you may simply have a sense that something does not feel right but find it difficult to put into words.

Hi, I’m Paul. Before training as a counsellor and psychotherapist, I spent 25 years building businesses and working in senior leadership roles. I know the world of ambition, achievement and responsibility from the inside — and I’ve also experienced the value of having someone outside that world help me think more clearly about the questions that matter.
That experience was part of what led me to psychotherapy. I became increasingly interested in what sits beneath the decisions we make, the patterns we repeat and the expectations we place on ourselves. I was drawn to the opportunity to understand people more deeply: how we come to see ourselves as we do, how our experiences shape our relationships, and why we can sometimes find ourselves repeating patterns even when we know they aren't helping us.
I work with adults who are trying to make sense of where they are and what comes next. You may be experiencing anxiety, stress, relationship difficulties or loss. Perhaps something significant has changed in your life, or you have reached a point where the things that once motivated you no longer feel quite the same. You might have a successful career, a busy family life or a great deal of responsibility, yet still feel unsettled, stuck or unsure about what you really want.
Sometimes life looks fine from the outside but doesn't feel that way on the inside. You don't need to know exactly why or have a clear idea of what needs to change before starting counselling.
Therapy offers a safe space to step back from the demands of everyday life and pay attention to experiences that may be difficult to examine elsewhere. Through that process, it can become possible to understand what is happening more clearly, recognise what may need to change and find a way forward that feels more your own.
People often have more of the answers than they think. My role is to listen carefully, bring curiosity to your experiences, ask a different question and help you find new perspectives. Sometimes a different question can be the beginning of a different life.
My integrative training includes humanistic, psychodynamic and relational approaches. Each offers a different perspective on how we understand ourselves, our feelings, our relationships and the experiences that shape us. My clients draw on this breadth of learning to find the approaches and perspectives most relevant to you, rather than expecting you to fit a particular model of therapy.
Every person brings a different set of experiences, concerns and ways of understanding the world. I listen carefully to what you bring and work with you to explore what might be most helpful. Sometimes we may focus on what is happening in your life now; at other times, it may be useful to look at experiences from the past and consider how they continue to influence the present. The work develops with you, drawing on my training and experience in ways that respond to your individual needs.
At the heart of my approach is the belief that a trusting therapeutic relationship creates the conditions in which people can begin to understand themselves more fully. Having the space to speak openly, without judgement or pressure to present things in a particular way, can itself be valuable. From there, we can begin to explore what is happening in your life and what you might want to change.
We might look at patterns in relationships, the expectations you place on yourself, or the ways you have learned to cope with difficult situations. We can consider what may be keeping you stuck and explore different perspectives. Sometimes this involves seeing familiar situations in a new way; sometimes it means allowing difficult feelings to be understood rather than pushed aside.
I won't assume that I know what is best for you, or that there is a predetermined route we need to follow. Counselling isn't about being given the answers. It is an opportunity to develop a clearer understanding of yourself, your relationships and the choices available to you. The aim isn't to become someone else or to meet somebody else's expectations, but to find a way forward that feels more genuinely your own.
Starting therapy can feel daunting, particularly if you have not had counselling before. You don't need to arrive with a clear diagnosis, a particular goal or the right words. We can start with what's happening for you now and take things at a pace that feels manageable.
My role is to offer a thoughtful, compassionate and confidential space in which you can explore what matters to you and begin to find your own way forward.

Psychodynamic Therapist (MBACP)

I'm Simon, a registered psychodynamic therapist working with adults of all ages in private practice. I trained at The Manor House Centre for Psychotherapy and Counselling in North London and have several years’ experience working at a community counselling service, supporting adults through a range of emotional, relational and life challenges.
Before becoming a therapist, I worked in management, communications and consultancy. This experience has given me a particular understanding of the pressures of working life, career change and periods of uncertainty, and how these can affect our emotional lives and relationships.
At the heart of our work together is helping you develop a deeper understanding of yourself, with greater curiosity and compassion.
Psychodynamic therapy is based on the understanding that our early experiences, relationships and ways of coping can continue to influence how we think, feel and relate to others today. By exploring these patterns together, it can become possible to see yourself and your relationships differently, develop greater emotional insight and create meaningful change. I believe therapy offers a unique space to slow down, think together and make sense of the experiences and relationships that have shaped who you are.
You may have reached a point where exploring your emotional life, relationships, family experiences or work pressures feels important. You may be feeling anxious, low or overwhelmed, struggling with loss, trauma, anger, identity, self-esteem, experiences of difference or neurodiversity, or simply curious to understand yourself better and make sense of patterns that seem to repeat in your life.
I offer a confidential, thoughtful and non-judgemental space where we can explore whatever brings you to therapy. The therapeutic relationship is central to my work, providing a space where you can be listened to, understood and speak openly at your own pace.
Our first session will give us an opportunity to talk about what brings you to therapy and whether working together might feel right for you. To get in touch, book a first consultation session at one of the slots below, or go to therapywithsimon.com to email me or to schedule a 20 minute complimentary introductory call.

I'm a neurodivergent psychotherapeutic counsellor creating a space where late-identified Autistic, ADHD, AuDHD adults, neuroqueer folks, multicultural/2nd-gen people, and partners, friends or family of neurodivergent loved ones feel finally seen, not fixed. All genders welcome.
You might look like you're functioning, but feel overstimulated, drained, misunderstood, and are masking to meet expectations that never fit. Some clients are newly discovering their neurotype; others are exhausted from burnout or feeling "too much."
Trauma-informed, culturally aware, non-pathologising therapy for those ready to feel truly understood.
Together, we'll nurture self-understanding, confidence, and sustainable change at your pace; honouring your sensory needs, communication style, identity, culture, and unique story.
No pressure to perform, just gentle exploration of what helps you breathe easier.
Does this sound like you?
Late-identified Autistic/ADHD woman burned out from masking
Neuroqueer/non-binary adult navigating intersectional challenges
Autistic/ADHD man with masking exhaustion or late diagnosis
Partner, friend or family of an Autistic/ADHD loved one
Multicultural/2nd-gen person exploring identity & belonging
What clients say:
"First therapist who truly understands me."
"Felt genuinely cared for, even through the hardest sessions."
What brings people to my private practice: Burnout, masking fatigue, identity questions, cross-neurotype relationships, estrangement, trauma, and cultural belonging.
Ready for that first step? Get in touch
I trained as a psychotherapeutic counsellor and have additional training in supporting neurodivergent clients.
My approach is integrative and holistic, meaning I draw on different therapeutic models to address your individual needs rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.
I work in a trauma-informed and neurodiversity-affirming way, while also considering how culture, identity, and wider systems may shape your experiences.
I aim to work collaboratively with you, supporting you to make sense of your experiences, reconnect with yourself, and find ways forward that feel meaningful and sustainable.

Hi, I'm Shu. I’m an integrative counsellor and psychotherapist, and I work with adults who may be struggling with anxiety, burnout, self-doubt, relationships, identity or changes in their lives.
Many of the people I work with are used to being the one who copes, gets on with things and is there for other people. From the outside, you might seem capable and together, while inside things feel very different. You may have spent so long meeting expectations or adapting to what others need that it’s become harder to know what you need yourself.
You might also know what it’s like to feel slightly on the outside looking in, or to feel that different parts of you belong in different places. Sometimes there isn’t one obvious reason for coming to therapy, just a sense that something doesn’t feel right, or that you don’t want to keep carrying on in quite the same way.
As an integrative therapist, I draw on person-centred and psychodynamic approaches. In practice, this means I don’t work to a set formula. We start with you, what’s happening in your life and what feels important to understand or work through.
The relationship we build is an important part of that. Therapy with me is a space where you don’t have to edit yourself, fit a role or be who others expect you to be. As we get to know each other and trust develops, there can be more room for the thoughts, feelings and parts of yourself that you might usually keep back. And gradually, being able to be more yourself in therapy can make it easier to do that in your relationships outside the room too.
We can also look at where some of your feelings or ways of coping might come from. That might mean exploring earlier experiences and relationships, or noticing patterns that keep showing up in your life now. It’s not about endlessly looking backwards, but understanding how your experiences have shaped you and what you might want to do differently.
I won’t tell you what to do or assume what’s right for you. We’ll work together to understand what’s going on, make sense of the things that have perhaps felt difficult to put into words, and help you find your own way forward.

I strongly believe in a thoughtful, compassionate and culturally sensitive approach to therapy. My pluralistic practice is grounded in person-centred and relational values, and integrates a range of therapeutic models to suit the client’s unique context, needs and goals.

I am a fully qualified Art Psychotherapist with extensive experience working with adults, young people and children. I offer both creative and talking therapy, with a flexible approach shaped around your individual needs, preferences and ways of communicating.
I specialise in supporting autistic, ADHD and other neurodivergent individuals, with an understanding of diverse sensory, communication and processing styles. If you are neurodivergent, my approach recognises this as part of your identity and way of experiencing the world, rather than something that needs to be changed or “fixed”.
Art Psychotherapy is an established and professionally regulated form of psychological therapy, informed by psychological theory, clinical practice and a growing body of research. It combines the therapeutic relationship with creative processes to support emotional expression, reflection and psychological understanding.
No artistic ability or previous experience with art is needed.
I am trained to work with both verbal and non-verbal forms of communication. This can be particularly valuable if experiences are difficult to put into words, if emotions feel overwhelming, or if thinking and communicating through images, materials, metaphor or sensory experience feels more accessible than talking alone.
You may be seeking support with a wide range of needs and experiences, including:
- Neurodivergence, including being autistic, ADHD or dyslexic - with support around self-understanding, identity, strengths, sensory needs, communication preferences, regulation and self-advocacy
- Anxiety
- Stress, overwhelm and burnout
- Depression and low mood
- Trauma and the impact of difficult or overwhelming experiences
- Grief, bereavement and loss
- Self-esteem, self-worth and confidence
- Relationships, connection and interpersonal difficulties
- Learning disabilities
- Change, transitions and periods of uncertainty
- Adoption, including experiences connected with identity, attachment and belonging
- Addiction
- Emotional wellbeing and mental health difficulties
- Infertility and fertility-related experiences
My approach is grounded in safety, trust, choice, collaboration and respect for your individual experience. I work at a pace that feels manageable for you, recognising that everyone differs in how they communicate, process emotions, build trust and make sense of their experiences.
No problem is too small. If it matters to you, it matters. Getting in touch can be the first step towards greater understanding, meaningful change and a different way of relating to yourself and your experiences.

I founded my practice, INNER MOTION SPACE. Building the next chapter of your life through psychotherapy and transformational coaching. Your space of emotional healing, inner transformation and evolvement.
Training and qualifications:
I hold a Master’s Degree in Integrative Psychotherapy from the Metanoia Institute, London, awarded in 2022, and a Diploma in Integrative Psychotherapeutic Counselling completed in 2020. My training at Metanoia provided a strong foundation in integrative and relational psychotherapy, grounded in clinical practice.
I continue to expand my therapeutic approach through specialist training. In 2023, I completed Trauma-Informed Stabilisation Treatment training. In 2025, I completed training at the Silent Family Constellation School, founded by Gerhard Wallper, as well as training at Hellinger Schule. I am currently in the process of certification with The Institute for Woman-Centred Coaching, Training and Leadership.
Before this, I completed a Bachelor’s degree in Pedagogy with a specialisation in Social Rehabilitation at Rzeszów University in Poland in 2015. Earlier in my professional development, I obtained a Diploma in Integrative Counselling with a focus on Addiction Recovery from the Psychology Applied Institute in Katowice, Poland, in 2012.
Alongside my formal qualifications, I am committed to ongoing professional development. Selected trainings include:
Intensive Trauma Treatment Course (PESI; Bessel van der Kolk), December 2022
Trauma-Informed Stabilisation Treatment (PESI; Janina Fisher), October 2022
Parts, Ego States, and Fragmented Selves in Shame and Self-Loathing (PESI; Janina Fisher), March 2023
Safeguarding Adults Training (The Awareness Centre), July 2021
I also regularly attend professional conferences, including the Trauma Conference in Boston, USA (2023), and the Trauma Conference in Oxford, UK (October 2025).
I am a Registered Member of the BACP (MBACP), an Accredited Member of the UKCP, and I'm also registered with ICO (Information Commissioner's Office).
I work with Employee Assistance Programmes (Workplace People's Options) and private insurance providers (AXA, WPA).
My website: https://www.katarzynainglot.com/
MY APPROACH
The focus of the work is on the current situation.
My approach is guided by an INTEGRATIVE APPROACH, meaning I draw from different therapeutic traditions.
Employing a psychodynamic approach to explore how past experiences—particularly early relationships—continue
to influence your thoughts, emotions, and interactions with others today.
Uncovering repetitive patterns and coping strategies that may no longer serve you, helping you make more conscious choices and feel more in control.
The transpersonal approach not only helps in healing emotional pain but also in evolving into a new version
of yourself, one that is aligned with your values, feelings, and deep longings. Your challenges are seen not only
as difficulties, but also as invitations for growth.
I use a trauma-informed approach (Trauma-Informed Stabilisation Treatment developed by Dr Janina Fisher).
It focuses on attending different parts of you — even those that feel reactive, stuck, or self-sabotaging — with
care and compassion. This approach understands that trauma affects both the mind and the body, and helps you feel safer and manage the sense of overwhelm.
Through systemic lenses, I also consider the broader context: your family system, culture, faith background,
and transgenerational experiences, all of which contribute to who you are and how you interact with the world.
Other theories which inform my practice include findings from Attachment Theory, neuroscience, Emotional Intelligence and others.

Hi my name is Elia, I am a qualified integrative psychotherapist (MSc), offering individual therapy to adults. I offer short and long term therapy, in person and online.
I am a native Greek speaker and hence I can also work in Greek.
Therapy offers a chance to slow down and explore what is happening in your life. You may be experiencing anxiety or depression, difficulties in your relationships, low self-esteem, stress or burnout, or struggling with a significant change or loss. I provide a thoughtful, compassionate space in which you can talk openly, make sense of your experiences and develop a deeper understanding of yourself and what you need.
I work relationally as I believe the relationship between therapist and client is an important part of the therapeutic process, and I aim to bring warmth, openness and genuine curiosity to our work together. As an integrative psychotherapist, I draw on different therapeutic approaches and I consider both your past and present experiences and relationships, your culture, physical and mental health, your work and everything else that is important to you.
Therapy is not a quick fix and can sometimes be challenging. I won't tell you what you should do; instead, I will support you in exploring your thoughts, feelings and experiences, understanding yourself more deeply and making choices that feel right for you.
Sessions are typically weekly, on the same day and time and last for 50 minutes. I offer a complimentary 20-30 minute initial consultation, giving us an opportunity to meet, talk about what has brought you to therapy and consider whether we might be a good fit to work together.

My aim is to help you gain insight, develop healthier coping strategies, challenge limiting beliefs, and move towards a more compassionate and balanced relationship with yourself and others.
As an integrative therapist, I use a range of evidence-based approaches. Alongside my core CBT and REBT approach, I integrate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Compassion Focused Therapy, EMDR, Schema Therapy, Assertiveness Training, and Mindfulness. This allows me to tailor therapy to each individual, drawing on the approaches that best fit your needs, goals, and pace.

People come to therapy for many different reasons, and I work with individuals from a wide range of backgrounds and life stages. Whatever has brought you to therapy, my aim is to offer a thoughtful, compassionate and non-judgemental space where you feel heard, understood and supported. I am experienced in supporting you on issues related to parenting challenges, childhood trauma, childhood bereavement, or adverse childhood experiences, as well as identity and life transitions, including bereavements, job loss and immigration.
In therapy sessions with me, you'll always be met with warmth, compassion and respect. I draw on a range of therapeutic approaches (e.g., humanistic, psychodynamic, CBT) according to what is likely to be most helpful to you specifically. For trauma, I'm also trained in EMDR, an evidence-based therapy that helps people process traumatic or difficult experiences. My aim is to create a space where you feel safe enough to be honest, including about the things that are hard to say out loud. Sessions with me tend to feel more like a genuine conversation than something formal. I understand that finding the right therapist can feel like an important decision. The free 20-30min initial consultation offers an opportunity for us to meet, discuss any questions you may have, and consider together whether I am the right person to support you.
Therapy sessions are weekly, and 45-50 minutes long. For EMDR processing sessions, I may book double sessions, to ensure there is enough time to complete the particular processing sequence you are working on. Sessions can be scheduled weekly or closer together.

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.

Hello, I’m Zsofia. I’m an integrative counsellor working with adults and couples in Wimbledon and online throughout the UK.
I support people experiencing anxiety, low mood, trauma, OCD-related difficulties, grief, low self-esteem and relationship problems. I have a particular interest in working with those affected by domestic abuse, sexual abuse, coercive control, narcissistic abuse and relational trauma - including the lasting impact on trust, boundaries, confidence and the body.
Many of my clients appear to be coping well on the outside but privately feel anxious, exhausted or uncertain about themselves. Some are trying to understand why they keep repeating certain patterns, while others are beginning to recognise how a past or present relationship has affected the way they see themselves.
I also work with couples who feel caught in recurring arguments, emotionally disconnected or unsure how to reach one another. Together, we can explore what lies beneath the conflict and develop more constructive ways of communicating and relating.
I do not believe that one therapeutic method fits everyone. My work is integrative, meaning I adapt the therapy to your needs rather than expecting you to fit a fixed formula.
Our work may involve understanding recurring patterns and beliefs, noticing how your body responds to stress, exploring different parts of yourself, or developing practical ways to manage overwhelming thoughts and emotions. I draw from person-centred therapy, CBT, somatic approaches, Internal Family Systems and trauma-informed practice, depending on what is most helpful for you.
For work-related stress and burnout, I may also use solution-focused approaches to help you identify what needs to change, recognise the resources you already have and develop realistic steps forward.
I will not rush you into discussing experiences before you are ready, but I will not simply sit back and leave you to carry the conversation alone. I aim to be engaged, thoughtful and honest, helping you understand not only what you are feeling, but why certain patterns may have developed.
In couples counselling, I use Gottman-informed tools alongside my integrative approach to help partners recognise unhelpful cycles, communicate more clearly, manage conflict and rebuild emotional connection.
I offer online counselling throughout the UK and face-to-face sessions in Wimbledon. A free 30-minute introductory call gives us an opportunity to discuss what brings you to therapy, ask questions and decide whether we are a good fit.

My approach is integrative and relational at its core - building a strong therapeutic alliance and balancing theory with what is alive between us in the session.
I work relationally, which means the therapeutic relationship itself becomes a space where you can explore patterns, experience being truly heard, and discover new ways of relating. My approach weaves together mindfulness, the mind-body connection, tapping (EFT), and principles from NLP coaching alongside psychosexual and relationship therapy. I am interested in spirituality and how this informs our capacity for intimacy and connection. With experience across NHS services and the charity sector, I am currently in private practice and continuing training in Advanced Diploma in Relationship Psychotherapy.

I believe therapy works best when you feel safe enough to be yourself — understood rather than judged, and able to build a relationship that feels genuine. My approach is humanistic and integrative: I adapt the way I work to each client, rather than expecting them to fit one model. Sessions move fluidly between emotional exploration and practical tools, depending on what's most useful at any given time.
Alongside core counselling, I also draw on hypnotherapy, EFT, and EMDR where relevant — particularly helpful for patterns, anxiety, or experiences that feel emotionally stuck. You don't need to know which approach is right for you; that's something we work out together.
I'm bilingual in English and French, and happy to offer sessions in either language.

I am a qualified counselling psychologist and an accredited member of the British Psychological Society (BPS) and Health Care Professions Council (HCPC). I have worked in NHS mental health services over the past ten years with people struggling with depression, low mood, anxiety disorders, relationship problems, self-esteem issues, loss, work related stress and other difficulties. I have helped people with more complex, long and enduring problems such as chronic depression, obsessive compulsive disorder, emotional intensity and mood instability.There are many reasons why people seek psychological support, perhaps you feel stuck in one or more areas of your life or you have noticed unhelpful and hurtful patterns of thinking and behaviour, and would like this to be different. You may want to better understand where these patterns come from and how they can be different. Often life can ‘look good on paper’ and yet you still feel unhappy or that something is lacking in your life. In therapy we can explore what might be underlying a sense of discontent or unease. Once issues are brought to our attention we can more easily make sense of what is going on, in order to think about how things can change. I offer a safe space in which we can think together about what is happening and bring a new perspective to your difficulties and begin formulating a way forward. Psychological research consistently demonstrates that the quality of the therapeutic relationship is the primary indicator of positive outcome of therapy. I aim to develop warm collaborative relationships based on respect, curiosity and acceptance.
Psychological Therapy
There are a wide variety of therapeutic approaches and treatment models and at times this choice might feel confusing. I am including a brief explanation but we can discuss this further to identify what might be most helpful for you.
Integrative Counselling Psychology
Integrative counselling psychology draws on humanistic, psychodynamic and cognitive models to focus on a person’s meaning making of their subjective experience. My integrative approach acknowledges the inherent difficulties but also the ever-present potential for growth and development in the human experience. It also allows therapy to be more flexible and inclusive according to an individual’s particular difficulties and therapeutic goals. This approach caters to both those who are interested in exploring the impact of past experiences on present ways of thinking and feeling whilst others may be after a more pragmatic set of skills to better manage those difficulties.
Dynamic Interpersonal Therapy (DIT)
Dynamic Interpersonal Therapy (DIT) is a time-limited, structured psychotherapy, with a growing evidence base in its effectiveness of treating depression. Typically it is delivered over 16 weekly sessions. It aims to help clarify the connection between presenting symptoms and what is happening in relationships by identifying a core repetitive pattern of relating that can be traced back to childhood. Once this pattern is identified, it will be used to make sense of difficulties in relationships in the here-and-now that could be contributing to psychological stress.
3rd Wave Cognitive Behavioral Therapies
3rd wave CBT extends the traditional cognitive behavioural theories that thinking, feeling and behaviour are all active contributors to low mood and anxiety, which can be resolved by changing what we do, think or feel. 3rd wave CBT draws on neurological research, decades on evolving psychological practice as well as ancient concepts such as compassion and mindfulness to develop a new way of working. This approach focuses less on the content of thoughts and pays more attention to the context, process and function of these internal experiences. 3rd wave CBT can offer more pragmatic skills and strategies to support different ways of responding to psychological pain and distress. This type of therapy may be useful for people suffering from low mood, anxiety, high expectations of themselves, or a tendency to ‘over think’.
Relationship Counselling and Couples Therapy
Relationships are vital for us as humans and when they go wrong this can cause a great deal of distress. Attending sessions together to focus on the couple can be an opportunity to consider what might be happening between the two partners. The sessions are an opportunity to safely explore areas of concern and allow partners to communicate with one another to identify and begin to understand underlying conflicts. Due to the complex nature of relationships people may find themselves responding to difficulties they may have had in their past as well as current challenges and this is useful to think about as a couple. As in individual therapy, couples may enter into therapyas a result of a crisis as well as at times of feeling stuck or simply a desire to improve the quality of the relationship.

I’m Williamina Baillie, a BACP Accredited Psychotherapeutic Counsellor, working with adults, couples and relationships.
Sometimes life can feel so full that it becomes difficult to see clearly what is going on. You may be dealing with anxiety or stress, difficulties in a relationship, pressures at work, health concerns, grief or loss, or a change in your life that you didn't expect. Sometimes there isn't one obvious reason — you may simply know that things don't feel quite right.
I can help you untangle some of this and make sense of what you are experiencing. I’m a good listener and genuinely interested in hearing your story, how things affect you and what you would like to be different.
I work with people from many different backgrounds, including professionals, freelancers and those starting or running their own businesses. You may be used to managing things, solving problems and getting on with it, but find that something has become harder to manage on your own.
You don't need to arrive knowing exactly what you want to talk about. We can begin wherever you are and explore what feels important to you, at your pace and capacity.
Areas I often work with include:
Anxiety & Stress · Relationships & Couples · Work & Life Challenges · Health & Illness · Grief & Loss · Life Transitions
My approach is person-centred, phenomenological and relational. This means I’m interested in understanding things from your perspective, while bringing my experience and training to help you explore what is happening and what you find may help you.
The relationship between us matters. I listen with empathy, without judgement, and you don't need to arrive knowing exactly what is wrong or where to start. We can begin with whatever is making life difficult, even when you can’t quite put your finger on it.
I believe you have the capacity for growth and change. We work together at your pace and capacity, making sense of what is happening, exploring different perspectives and noticing patterns or connections that may not have been clear before. This can help you understand yourself differently and, where you want to, begin to change patterns that may no longer be working for you.
Where useful, I can also draw on practical tools such as mindfulness, breathing, emotional regulation and stress management. These can complement the therapeutic work without interrupting it or taking it over.
For me, counselling is about being alongside you, listening carefully, helping you make sense of what is happening and exploring what may be possible for you.
Couples therapist

Couples therapist

I am a highly experienced, professionally qualified couples and relationship therapist. My aim is to help my clients understand what is not working and why and help them work towards positive changes that will enhance their partnership
My initial training was in psychodynamic couples therapy, but over the years I have trained in CBT and Emotionally Focused Therapy. Integrating these ways of working with couples helps make sense of their relationship distress and helps them change negative patterns into more secure and safe connections.
Psychodynamic Therapist / Counsellor
From £90 per session
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.

Perhaps something in your life doesn't feel right.
You may be feeling anxious, overwhelmed or low. Perhaps your mind rarely switches off, you're struggling with a relationship, coping with grief or loss, dealing with work or family pressures, or facing a change you weren't expecting.
You might find yourself worrying about the future, going over things from the past or wondering why the same feelings or patterns keep returning. Or perhaps there isn't one particular problem. You simply feel stuck, disconnected from yourself or know that something needs to change.
You don't need to have it all worked out before you come to counselling. We can start with where you are.
I have experience supporting adults with anxiety, stress, panic, low mood, grief and loss, trauma and difficult past experiences, relationship and family difficulties, loneliness, self-esteem, overwhelm and significant life changes.
For me, counselling isn't about becoming a different person. It can give you the space to understand yourself more deeply, recognise what you need and consider how you want to move forward.
My approach is primarily person-centred. I believe you are the expert in your own life, even at times when you may feel unsure, overwhelmed or lost.
I offer a warm, confidential and non-judgemental space where you can talk openly about what is happening for you. I won't tell you what you should do or rush you towards solutions. Instead, I'll work alongside you, helping you explore your thoughts, feelings and experiences at a pace that feels comfortable for you.
You don't need to arrive with the right words or know exactly what you want to talk about. There is no pressure to disclose anything before you feel ready.
I also draw on psychodynamic thinking where it may be helpful. Exploring how earlier experiences and relationships may influence how you feel, respond or relate to others today can help recurring patterns begin to make sense.
Greater self-understanding can help you recognise what you would like to change and what you might be ready to accept about yourself. Sometimes moving forward involves change. Sometimes it involves becoming more accepting of ourselves.
Often, it's a combination of both.
I offer 50-minute face-to-face counselling sessions in West Hampstead at £80 per session and online counselling at £60 per 50-minute session. Online counselling enables me to work with clients across the UK.
I also offer a free 15-minute introductory telephone conversation. This gives you the opportunity to tell me a little about what has brought you to counselling, ask any questions and get a sense of whether working together feels right for you. There is no obligation to book afterwards.
Sometimes the first step is simply having a conversation.

Integrative counsellor and psychodynamic therapist
From £75 per session
Do you need help with relational difficulties, anxiety, depression, or traumatic events? Seeking help can be difficult, particularly if you have learnt that you must endure your pain alone and silently. Counselling and therapy can be the way forward as a powerful release of all your private suffering, foster self-acceptance and understanding, to give you a chance to have a clearer sense of purpose and direction. As a BACP registered therapist, I am to give the best care to each of my clients, working to provide a psychologically safe environment where you can bring unattended injuries from your childhood, current struggles from work or personal relationships.
I bring my experience as a counsellor from working in various sectors, including NHS, private and charitable organisations, to offer you both short and long-term counselling. I have been working with individuals dealing with a broad range of mental health issues. I specialise in trauma, abuse, and infertility. I have extensive experience working with anxiety, depression, relational difficulties, separation and divorce, bullying, bereavement, low self-esteem, work-related issues, stress management, eating disorders, and issues of LGBTQ+.
My focus is the therapeutic relationship, working with the here and now. I draw on a variety of approaches to meet your individual needs and circumstances. We all need to be listened to and can work through our difficulties if we are given the opportunity to work through our problems at our own pace in a safe and confidential environment. My part of the process is to gently help you to make sense of your difficulties, feelings and repetitive patterns that may unfold. I honour the uniqueness of my clients and welcome the rich diversity of the individual in the spirit of inclusion and celebration.

Humanistic Counsellor, MBACP
From £60 per session
Humanistic Counsellor, MBACP
From £60 per session
I am a qualified Humanistic Counsellor and registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP). I work with adults and offer therapy in person in Angel/Islington and West Hampstead, as well as online.
I work with people experiencing anxiety and overwhelm, low self-esteem and self-doubt, relationship difficulties, people-pleasing, identity and life transitions, neurodivergence and ADHD, and questions around belonging, purpose and direction.
I particularly welcome people who may have spent much of their lives feeling somehow “too much” or “not enough”, or who know that something needs to change but are not yet sure what that change might look like.
My Therapeutic Approach
My approach is humanistic and integrates Person-Centred Therapy, Gestalt and Transactional Analysis. This allows me to work flexibly while keeping you and your individual experience at the centre of our work.
I don’t see myself as the expert on your life, and therapy with me is not about being told what you should do or being given ready-made solutions. Instead, we work collaboratively, becoming curious about what is happening for you, exploring patterns and experiences, and making space for greater awareness and choice.
You don’t need to arrive knowing exactly what you want to talk about. We can begin with whatever feels most present and explore it together at a pace that feels right for you.

Perhaps life feels difficult at the moment, or you’re finding yourself overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected or unsure of what you need. Maybe you’ve spent a long time managing on your own, looking after other people or being hard on yourself.
I offer a calm, warm space where you don’t need to have everything figured out. I’m interested in getting to know you as a whole person, and in creating a relationship where you can feel comfortable enough to be yourself.
I’m naturally curious, open and down-to-earth; you can come as you are, and work at your own pace.
I offer sessions in person in Wimbledon or online. I also offer therapy outdoors as sometimes talking side by side, or walking in the open air, can feel more natural than sitting opposite someone in a therapy room.
At the heart of my work is the relationship we build together. I believe that feeling genuinely heard, accepted and understood can create the space to explore things that may have felt difficult to face alone.
I work in a person-centred and relational way, starting with you rather than trying to fit you into a particular model. We might explore what is happening in your life now, look at experiences from your past and how they may still be shaping you, or pay attention to what you notice in your body, emotions and relationships.
I’m particularly interested in the ways we can learn to be hard on ourselves, hide parts of who we are or become caught in patterns that once helped us but no longer do. Sometimes parts-based work, mindfulness or other experiential approaches can help us understand these patterns with a little more curiosity and compassion.
I don’t see therapy as something that needs to “fix” you. There may be things you want to change, but I’m equally interested in helping you understand and accept yourself more fully. There is no set route through therapy; we can work at a pace that feels manageable and shape the work together.

I’m Kirsty, a BACP-registered integrative counsellor. I offer a calm, supportive space to pause, reflect on what you’re feeling and begin to find some clarity.
You might look like you are coping, while inside you feel anything but.
A mind that rarely switches off, a tendency to second-guess yourself, or becoming so used to putting others first can leave you feeling disconnected from what you need. You may feel anxious, self-critical or exhausted by trying to get things right, while still feeling like you’re not enough. You may struggle with self-doubt or find yourself caught in patterns that leave you unsure how to move forward.
How I work
Together, we can gently explore the patterns that shape how you think, feel and relate to yourself and others. We can take time to understand where these patterns may have come from, how they affect you now, and how they may be influencing the way you see yourself and your relationships.
Perhaps you often put other people's needs before your own, find it difficult to set boundaries, or question whether your feelings and choices are valid. We can make space to understand these experiences without judgement, and consider what you need to feel more confident in yourself and your relationships.
My approach is person-centred, relational and integrative. We will work together at a pace that feels manageable for you, following what feels most important as it emerges. You don’t have to know exactly where to begin. We can start there.
I offer in-person counselling in Wimbledon and Clapham, including walk-and-talk sessions. Online counselling is also available across the UK and abroad.
Get in touch
If something here resonates with you, you’re welcome to get in touch. We can have an initial conversation about what’s been going on for you and whether working together feels like the right fit.
My approach is integrative, drawing on humanistic, psychodynamic, and cognitive-behavioural (CBT) therapies. I blend these approaches in a flexible, relational way, adapting the work to your individual needs and experiences.
I aim to create a gentle, collaborative space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Together, we can look at emotional distress, relational patterns, trauma, and periods of transition, supporting deeper understanding and meaningful change.
I work with adults experiencing anxiety, low self-esteem, and challenges around life transitions, offering supportive space to explore change, build confidence, and develop emotional resilience.
At the heart of my work is the therapeutic relationship. I provide a safe, warm, non-judgmental, and empathic environment where the focus is on you and your unique journey. My goal is to help you feel heard, understood, and supported as we work together at a pace that feels right for you.

I am an HCPC-registered Clinical Psychologist working at The Chelsea Psychology Clinic and the founder of the Home Space | Hampstead Psychology Clinic in London.
I completed my Doctorate in Clinical Psychology at King’s College London and also hold an MSc in Clinical Mental Health Sciences and a Postgraduate Certificate in Low Intensity Cognitive Behavioural Interventions from University College London, as well as a BSc in Psychology from the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens.
I have trained to work across the lifespan and with the full range of mental health difficulties. I have supported adults, children, and young people with problems such as anxiety, depression, complex trauma, personality disorders, psychosomatic symptoms, work stress, and issues related to neurodevelopmental conditions such as ADHD. My particular interests include working with complex trauma, relational difficulties, psychosomatic symptoms, and the challenges of migration, cultural transitions, and abusive relationships.
I offer therapy in both English and Greek, face to face in London and online, worldwide.
You can have a look at my website here: https://www.drmarizastagaki.com/
Although I am a Clinical Psychologist, above all, I am human. And as a fellow human, when you come into the room with me, I will sit with you and listen to your experiences. I am deeply curious about how your unique story unfolds over time, not just your symptoms or diagnosis. I won’t rush you. Things take time, life is full of ups and downs, and I want to walk next to you in this journey.
I believe that a new therapy needs to be created for every human being. I work integratively, tailoring my approach to what you need and what feels right for you. I often ask what you prefer, because I believe that therapy should be something we build together, something that truly fits you.
I draw on a range of therapeutic models, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic Therapy, Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Trauma-Focused Psychotherapy, Systemic and Family Therapy, as well as body-based approaches such as Embodied Psychotherapy and Dance Movement Therapy.
My approach is integrative and relational, with a focus on how past experiences, relationship patterns, and embodied processes shape present difficulties.
Based on your needs, I can offer a range of evidence-based techniques and tools, but I also provide something beyond that; a space for understanding yourself and your experiences. Therapy, to me, is not only about alleviating symptoms, but about listening to what those symptoms may be trying to communicate, so you can begin to live the life you truly want for yourself.
I offer a space that gives permission for feelings to be felt; for sadness, anger, fear, or guilt to surface in as much safety as possible. A space where the dark box of feelings can be opened, and where, in time, you may come to see that it was never as dark as it once seemed.

I am a registered and experienced counsellor, an accredited member of the BACP with experience of working with a variety of issues and age groups, as well as over twenty years working with young people in education. I offer both long term and time limited counselling in a situation where we can work together on many challenges that you may be facing. I work both online and in person with adults and young people. I offer both talking therapy and EMDR and am always happy to discuss with you what would be helpful
Counselling can help by exploring some of the roots of present day difficulties and looking at new ways of self acceptance and relating to others. Sometimes it can explore a feeling that something is just 'not right' and you are struggling to connect with others or make the most of opportunities. I have experience in helping people through feelings of loss, or coping with changes in their lives.
I have also worked with those who feel they need to process past experience and trauma in order to move on successfully. In my experience, one of the most important features of one to one counselling is the ability to have a positive experience of relating to others and, the most important factor, allowing the chance of being listened to and understood.

I offer a free initial 15-minute introductory phone call, this is so we can talk through your needs and requirements and to ensure you feel comfortable moving forward.
People from all walks of life may at some point seek therapy. Whether it's due to difficulties with relationships, depression, anxiety, work or study related stress, bereavement, past traumas affecting the present. Therapy can provide much needed support and offers a safe space where any issues and concerns you may be experiencing can be explored. At the heart of my practice is trust and openness and the understanding that our relationship is the key component for successful therapeutic outcomes. This process should lead to meaningful and long-lasting changes.
I see therapy as a collaborative endeavour between us that allows you to openly explore your thoughts and feelings in a safe, confidential and non-judgemental environment. I offer a warm and calm space and my aim is to provide support within an atmosphere of empathy and trust. My approach is integrative which means I draw on a range of approaches to tailor the therapy to your individual needs. We will work at your own pace and find the approach that works best for you.

Hello and thank you for visiting my profile. I am a fully qualified Integrative Relational Counsellor committed to supporting you through whatever challenges, concerns or difficult feelings you may currently be facing. The relationship that we build will form the foundation of our work and together, we can create a collaborative space where you feel able to explore and make sense of your thoughts and feelings at your own pace.
I believe counselling provides an opportunity for you to reconnect with who you really are, fostering greater confidence, resilience and self-awareness. My approach is integrative, meaning I tailor our work to your unique needs by drawing from different but complementary therapeutic approaches, such as psychodynamic and humanistic. This allows us to explore the behaviours and patterns that may be holding you back and find new ways of relating to yourself and others.
Perhaps you are struggling with low self esteem and need support at a difficult time in your life? Or maybe you would like to explore difficult feelings such as anger, depression or anxiety? Are challenging relationships impacting your daily life? Or maybe painful suppressed childhood experiences and emotions are holding you back? These are all things that we can work together to explore within the context of your life story. Whatever your situation and needs I work with warmth, empathy and curiosity to enable you to develop the tools and insights needed to move forward and make choices that feel right for you.
I offer sessions in person in Wimbledon which offers easy access to the surrounding areas. I also work online. Sessions can be either short term (6-12 weeks) or long term

I’m a BACP registered counsellor and psychotherapist working with adults in South London and online. People come to therapy for many different reasons, including anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties, loss, low self-esteem, stress or simply a sense that something in life is not quite working.
My aim is to offer a warm, thoughtful and non-judgemental space where you can talk openly and begin to make sense of what you are experiencing. You do not need to have everything worked out before you start.
I work integratively, drawing primarily on person-centred and psychodynamic therapy.
This means that our relationship is an important part of the work. We can explore both what is happening in your life now and how earlier experiences, relationships and patterns may continue to shape the way you feel, relate to others and understand yourself.
I do not see therapy as being about “fixing” you. Often, ways of coping developed for understandable reasons. By becoming more aware of these patterns, therapy can help create greater understanding, flexibility and choice.

Integrative Arts Psychotherapist
From £80 per session
Integrative Arts Psychotherapist
From £80 per session
My name is Dawn (she / they) & I am a social activist art therapist providing arts psychotherapy & sex positive therapy to adults in West & Southwest London.
At the heart of my therapeutic work, I am grounded in integrative & humanistic theoretical approaches, & specialise in working in a trauma-informed way with individuals with complex presentations & trauma.
The majority of my work is with marginalized & stigmatized individuals / communities (forensic mental health, LGBTIA+ & sex workers).
The aim for therapy is to co-create a space, where you can be your authentic self by feeling seen, heard & understood - no matter the issue or theme you bring, finding ways to empower yourself in your life.
ARTS PSYCHOTHERAPY
The arts are an alternative approach to traditional talking therapy & can provide a deeper insight when it is hard to find the words for your experiences & feelings.
In my sessions, the seven art forms are available for you;
* Art
* Drama / Puppetry
* Sculpture / Clay
* Poetry
* Sand-play
* Music
* Bodywork / Movement
No previous experience or artistic skill with the arts are needed.
As first, the arts might feel weird to use to communicate your needs. To help familiarise yourself with the art materials, I will gently guide you to different media to find the most fitting way to explore your inner & outer world.
SEX POSITIVE THERAPY
In additional to my art psychotherapy approach, I also provide sex-positive therapy & work with sexual problems.
Using a bio-psycho-social theoretical model, I can provide supportive therapeutic interventions to the following areas;
* Gender, Sexual & Relationship Diversity (GSRD)
* Queer sex
* Kink, Fetish and BDSM practices
I can also combine my art psychotherapy practice to provide artistic ways to explore the above areas.
SEX WORKER FRIENDLY THERAPIST
I fully support sex worker rights, safety & decriminalisation of sex work. I provide low-cost therapy to sex workers (short/long term).
NUM packages (x6 funded therapy sessions) with me are available via the National Ugly Mugs website > mental health support > contact casework team.
SOCIAL ACTIVIST THERAPIST
Therapy is political & I do not shy away from social topics in therapy. I recognise the collective distress from global injustices, capitalism, mental health issues, social & cultural oppression may affect you in many areas of your life.
I believe therapy is a great way to explore feelings about your own social injustices, by finding ways to resource yourself and manage the discomfort / hardships this may bring. Through this exploration you may find ethical & creative ways to express this outside the therapy room too.

I’m the Clinical Director and Founder of Balance Psychotherapy, a small clinic based in Kensington and Ruislip, created to support clients living with neurodiversity, emotional intensity, or trauma.
I meet clients in person and online, offering an initial, non-binding consultation to explore your needs and consider how therapy could help. I usually offer an initial block of eight sessions, with a review and summary at the end. This gives us space to work with focus and direction. If needed, therapy can continue beyond that.
My approach is blended approach that affirm neurodiversity and support authenticity. I draw on EMDR to support trauma recovery, DBT to help with emotional regulation, impulsivity and relationship challenges, EFT for emotional processing, mindfulness-based interventions to improve attention, reduce anxiety and ACT to reduce shame, increase self-compassion, and CBT for time and task management. I aim to offer a calm, thoughtful space where you feel safe to do the work you need.
Between sessions, you’ll have access to guided resources recorded by me and available through the Spotify/Apple Podcasts. These tools are there to support your progress in daily life but always at your own pace.
Therapy with me is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to you. You’re not expected to fit into a method. Together, we’ll find what works.
With a strong academic background (two master of science in psychotherapy), I am able to tailor therapy to each individual, blending approaches such as
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) best for trauma
EFT (Emotion Focussed Therapy) best for emotional processing
DBT (Dialectical Behavioural Therapy) for emotional regulation, impulsivity, relationship challenges
Mindfulness and Integrative Restoration (iRest)
ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) best for shame, motivation, identity and self-compassion
Supportive psychodynamic therapy for chronic shame, trauma, rejection sensitivity
CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) best for executive disfunction, negative self-talk, planning difficulties, etc.

My path has been shaped by displacement: geographical (Paris, Hong Kong, Singapore, Auckland, Vancouver, London), linguistic (French, English), institutional (clinical psychology, rehabilitation centres, private practice), and, above all, subjective displacement.
Initially trained in Anglo-Saxon psychological approaches and having worked in settings where acute distress calls for urgent interventions (addiction, exclusion), I have, in parallel, entered the Freudo-Lacanian tradition in French over the past decade and now orient my work within a psychoanalytic framework.
Within the transferential bond specific to psychoanalysis, the work consists in sustaining a position that enables each person to encounter what, for them, constitutes a question: their desire, their singular way of being in the world, their repetitions, the mark of signifiers that affect them, and, as is so often formulated, that sense that “things are not going well,” “nothing works,” or “I keep going round in circles.”
I work with adults, in both French and English

My name is Rosella. I am a qualified Integrative Counsellor and a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), working in accordance with their Ethical Framework.
I offer a warm, compassionate, and confidential space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings without judgment. Reaching out for therapy can come from many places—anxiety, confusion, loss, burnout, or a sense of feeling stuck. Whatever brings you here, I would be honoured to listen to your story.
I believe that you are the expert on your own life. My role is to support you in making sense of your experiences, helping you deepen your self-awareness, and empowering you to move towards a more authentic and meaningful way of living.
My work is grounded in an integrative, relational approach, meaning I draw from different therapeutic models and tailor the work to your individual needs. At the heart of my practice is the belief that a safe, trusting, and authentic relationship is key to meaningful therapeutic change.
Together, we may explore how your past experiences—including childhood—shape your current thoughts, behaviours, and relationships. This process can help bring greater self-understanding and self-compassion, enabling you to recognise and shift patterns that may no longer serve you.
I work at your pace, collaboratively and respectfully, supporting you to explore your emotions and experiences in a way that feels manageable and safe. With children, I use play therapy as a central part of the work, offering them a natural and creative way to express emotions and experiences that may be difficult to put into words.
When working with couples, I take a more structured approach, supporting partners to develop healthier communication, understand recurring relationship patterns, and build practical skills to navigate conflict and reconnect within the relationship.
Whether you are seeking short-term support or longer-term therapy, my aim is to help you build insight, resilience, and a stronger connection to yourself and others.

I am a Psychodynamic Psychotherapist who offers a safe, collaborative and non-judgmental space where you can feel heard, understood and accepted. I am a down-to-earth, approachable and attentive therapist, and I believe that developing a genuine therapeutic relationship is central to the work. I aim to create a space where you can be yourself, speak openly and explore whatever may be troubling you at your own pace.
I work with people experiencing a wide range of difficulties, including relationship difficulties, anxiety, low mood, self-esteem and feeling stuck or overwhelmed. You do not need to have everything figured out before coming to therapy. Together, we can begin wherever you are and take time to understand what is happening for you, without judgement or pressure.
My approach is psychodynamic, exploring how your present experiences may be shaped by your past, relationships and ways of coping. Together, we can begin to understand recurring patterns, emotions and difficulties that may feel hard to make sense of or change.
I see therapy as a collaborative process, with both our minds working together to achieve insights and knowledge. I aim to offer a thoughtful, compassionate and grounded space where you can feel safe to explore your experiences, develop greater self-understanding and create possibilities for change.

An integrative therapist and authentic relating facilitator, I offer a reflective space for you to meet yourself, in a way that's uncommon in day-to-day life and has the potential to open up more choice and aliveness in how you experience the world.
Together, we turn towards what is happening for you—whether that is a particular event or relationship on your mind or heart, a tiredness, emptiness or disconnection, a stuckness or questioning where you’re going in life, or something else—with the intention of welcoming and being with it all. From there, we can explore and experiment with different ways of being that work for you, on your terms.
No matter how large or small your issue may feel, this is a non-judgemental space and all parts of you are welcome.
My practice is grounded in relational, humanistic, psychodynamic, and body-based modalities.

I am a Family and Systemic Psychotherapist who works with families, couples and individuals. I am a fully accredited and a professional member of both the UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) and the Association for Family Therapy and Systemic Psychotherapy (AFSP).
I am passionate about providing a safe, supportive space to help people navigate challenges and strengthen their relationships.
My background as a Dance Movement Therapist continues to enrich my approach today. Although I no longer practice in that field, my training has given me a lasting appreciation of the mind-body connection, and how working with the body can help regulate the nervous system and support emotional wellbeing.
As we travel through life things can happen along the way that can trip us up or take us off our path. For many of us there are times we need some extra support or a safe space to talk things through. I work in a warm, collaborative way, and at you pace. Together we can explore your thoughts, feelings and areas of difficulty. I will help you to uncover unhelpful patterns and develop different coping tools.
Whether working together over a longer period or focusing on a specific issue in short-term therapy, I guide and support clients to make the changes they want to see in their relationships and lives. I believe that therapy should be collaborative and empowering, helping clients identify their strengths, achieve their goals, and build a greater sense of wellbeing and resilience.

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.

There are many reasons you might be considering therapy. You may be feeling anxious, overwhelmed or low, struggling in a relationship, questioning where you are in life, or finding yourself caught in patterns that seem to keep repeating. You might understand some of what is happening but still find it difficult to change, or perhaps you simply know that something doesn’t feel quite right. You don’t need to have it all figured out before coming to therapy.
I offer a warm and supportive space where we can slow things down and begin to make sense of what has been happening for you. I know that talking openly about yourself can feel vulnerable, particularly at the beginning, so I place a lot of importance on building a relationship where you can gradually feel comfortable being yourself, without pressure to say the “right” thing or be a particular way.
I’m naturally curious about people and interested in what lies beneath the surface — not only what you are feeling, but why certain experiences affect you in the way they do, why particular patterns keep returning, and how your past may still be influencing your present. I’m warm and attentive, but I won’t only sit back and listen. I’ll be alongside you in the process, asking questions, sharing what I notice and helping you look at things from perspectives that may not have been available to you before.
I work with anxiety, stress, depression, trauma, low self-esteem, ADHD and OCD-related difficulties, as well as attachment, relationships, sexuality and identity. I also work with couples experiencing conflict, distance, communication difficulties, loss of trust or intimacy. Whatever has brought you here, therapy can be a place to understand yourself more deeply and begin finding a way forward that feels right for you.
As an integrative therapist, I use various therapeutic approaches. Therapy is shaped around you, rather than expecting you to fit into a particular model. Some people want to understand their past, some need help with what is happening right now, and many find that the two are more connected than they initially realised.
We might explore experiences and relationships that have shaped how you see yourself, the patterns that appear in your relationships, or the ways you have learned to cope when things feel difficult. We can also work more practically with anxiety, difficult thoughts and emotions, boundaries, communication or situations you are facing in your life now. I draw on relational, attachment-informed, humanistic, psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioural approaches, depending on what feels most useful for you.
I’m particularly interested in understanding rather than judging the parts of ourselves we often wish we could simply get rid of. Anxiety, self-criticism, perfectionism, people-pleasing, avoidance or withdrawing from others can become frustrating, but they often developed for a reason. Understanding where these patterns came from and what they have been trying to do for you can create more choice about whether you still need them in the same way.
Therapy doesn’t have to be only about what is wrong. It can also help you recognise what matters to you, reconnect with parts of yourself that may have become lost or overlooked, and develop a kinder and more trusting relationship with yourself. My hope is that, over time, you leave with greater clarity and confidence in yourself — and more freedom to make choices, build relationships and create a life that feels genuinely yours.

Are you tired of trying to hold everything together and pretending to be ok? Does day to day life feels harder than it should? Do you find yourself unable to let go of repetitive thoughts or do you worry about how you come across to others? I aim to support you to gain an understanding of yourself, your patterns and needs, whilst offering you practical tools and ideas along the way. I help many clients struggling with issues like not feeling good enough or overwhelmed with stress. I have a particular interest in how the past shows up in the present in ways clients may not be aware of.
I know it can feel daunting seeking support. I place an emphasis on the quality of the relationship between us, as research shows this is the most significant aspect of successful therapy outcomes, rather than the type of therapy offered. Many years of working through my own life challenges also influences the way I work.
I have an interest in working with the nervous system and emotions in the body to access an inner wisdom for healing and recovery.
