I’m a specialist relationship counsellor, here to support you in building stronger, more connected relationships—whether with a partner, family member, or colleague. I understand how painful it can be when you feel distant from the people who matter most, and how lonely it is when communication breaks down. Using a gentle, structured approach like Emotion Focused Therapy, I’ll help you make sense of your emotions, work through conflict with care, and help you feel truly heard and understood. You don’t have to navigate this alone. Let’s talk about what’s really going on—what matters most to you—and take the next step together.

I’m a psychotherapist and counsellor with seven years’ experience working with trauma (including PTSD and complex trauma), phobias, anxiety, self-esteem, attachment and relationship difficulties, anger management, and longstanding emotional patterns.
You may be seeking support because certain patterns keep repeating: anxiety, relationship difficulties, self-criticism, or feeling stuck and unable to access a deeper sense of wellbeing. You might be working through past trauma, questioning aspects of identity or purpose, or recognising parts of yourself that need clarity, care, and healing.

You might be carrying more than you thought you could or would like to, perhaps niggling feelings of discomfort, or finding everyday thoughts and actions difficult to attend to. You might find yourself replaying past events, unable to switch off, constantly vigilant, or shutting down and feeling empty. It would be nice to feel safe, grounded, and more fulfilled in life.

I am a friendly, relaxed, and conversational therapist who works with adolescents and adults with a range of mental health problems. I've done a bunch of things in my career but mostly use schema therapy these days because I find it gets to the heart of things most effectively. My primary focus with my clients is on building a warm, respectful, and genuine relationship through which problems can be explored and understood. From this shared understanding solutions will naturally emerge. I have particular experience helping people with personality problems, trauma, mood and anxiety disorders, addiction, and problem behaviour.

Hello, I'm Satvir (she/her), a clinical psychologist with 17 years' experience. My main focus is to provide a safe container for somatically-focused and embodied trauma therapy. Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy forms a large part of this, along with associated modalities that relate to the nervous system, getting to know all parts of yourself and the roles they play, and being able to tell your story to someone who will really listen. Especially being a woman of colour, it's really important to me to provide a space that honours cultural and spiritual heritage. All of you is welcome.
