Compassion Focused Counselling in N2

A very warm welcome! My name is Kaan and I am a Clinical Psychologist and accredited CBT therapist and EMDR therapist, specialising in working with adults with a range of mental health difficulties, from anxiety and low mood, stress and burnout, difficulties regulating and managing emotions to trauma related difficulties. With 15 years of experience in the mental health, I have had the privilege of working with clients dealing with a wide range of issues and I’m passionate about helping individuals navigate their challenges and find healing and growth in their lives.

Hi there, I'm Laura. I am a Clinical Psychologist registered with the Health and Care Professional Council (HCPC) with over fifteen years experience working in the NHS and charity sector. I currently work within two specialist services in London working with individuals experiencing emotional difficulties. Whatever your reasons for seeking therapy, I offer a safe and non-judgemental space, which is your time to explore some of the difficulties you have been facing and work together to find ways forward in your life.

Dr Constantina Markides is a Clinical Psychologist with experience working with adults and children with a range of mental health difficulties, such as severe OCD, low self-esteem, low mood and anxiety and body image concerns. She particularly enjoys working with those struggling with OCD, and has developed and delivered individual as well as group interventions within the NHS to offer evidence based therapies around this. Regardless of the presenting difficulty, Dr Markides hopes to support her clients not only to free themselves from their symptoms, but to connect to their values and live their life doing what matters to them.

I am a chartered psychologist drawing on eastern philosophies, compassion focused practices and evidence based psychology to help clients fully understand experiences, to create dialogue and compassion for all the different emotions, thoughts, behaviours, impulses experienced. Living as a human can be confusing, complex and lonely and through my work I help clients to create more clarity and to develop ways of offering kindness to painful experience. I draw on talking, role plays, meditations, visualisations and other practices that might help get to know experiences in more depth.

I am an experienced Clinical Psychologist, registered with The Health and Care Professionals Council (HCPC).

I have worked in mental health for over ten years with adults across the lifespan, children and families who have experienced a range of difficulties, in both community and inpatient settings. I completed my doctorate in clinical psychology at the University of Hertfordshire and currently work in a specialist NHS service for people with learning disabilities. I also have a special interest in working with people with psychosis and unusual experiences and much of my pre-training experience was in this area.

I am a Chartered Clinical Psychologist specialising in physical health conditions. If you are finding aspects of life challenging due to living with a health condition or you are supporting a loved one living with a health condition, I may be able to support you. Starting therapy can feel rather daunting. This is why I offer a warm and compassionate approach in working with your difficulties together. I offer brief and targeted therapy focused on developing coping skills to enable you to live a meaningful life alongside the health condition. I can also support you with your wellbeing if you do not live with a health condition.

It is likely that you are reading these lines because you are looking for support in getting through a crisis or you wish to explore some long-standing issues with a kind and caring professional. Perhaps you're struggling with problems in your relationship, professional life or trying to overcome destructive habits. You might be feeling stuck and need help to make sense of what's going on.

There are times in everyone's life when things can feel overwhelming. At others, we can find ourselves repeating unhelpful or destructive patterns in our behaviour or relationships. At these difficult, and sometimes very distressing times, therapy can, quite literally, be a life-saver. For others, therapy can be an exciting and challenging space for personal development, growth and exploration. I have worked in the field of mental health for over 20 years. I work in both the NHS and as a consultant in Private Practice. I am also a senior tutor at the Minster Centre a pre-eminent training organisation for Psychotherapists.

People seek therapy and counselling for all kinds of reasons: to solve problems, improve wellbeing, making sense of their past or build more meaningul futures. I've worked with people from many backgrounds and ages, all with varied life experiences, values, and goals. With years of experience in the NHS and private practice, I can help with Depression, Anxiety (including OCD and GAD) and psychosis. I have a special interest in complex emotional difficulties, personality disorder, identity, addiction and sexuality.

We are all bound to experience relational wounds, whether that happens in our attachment relationships with parents or later on in life in our romantic relationships. Sometimes we can integrate these wounds as part of life, but often they leave scars that impact our day-to-day life and future relationship dynamics. The hurt and pain experienced can affect our sense of self and it can create abandonment and other trauma-based responses. How we try to cope with our pain often causes more problems. Therapy with me helps you heal these wounds so that you can build loving, safe, and secure relationships with yourself and others.

Therapy is not always easy, and can at times, feel distressing. Your experiences may be something that you have shut away or tried to ignore. Unfortunately the feelings and thoughts around these experiences do not go away and can often become or feel out of our control. It is important to note that we do not need to visit anything that feels too scary for you, and we can still work around your experiences without directly re-visiting them. This can be re-traumatising and this is not something we need to do in order for the work to be successful. On the other side of this I have seen many people find healing and acceptance.

I offer therapy to those who may be experiencing emotional difficulties and who need some time and space to work through these challenges in order to find a way forward. I work with parents, families, adolescents, children and young adults. My experience includes most recently working at Barnet CAMHS, together with adult NHS settings, schools and organisations. My work is informed through the use of CBT, psychodynamic and person-centred therapy. Working collaboratively, I offer a warm, empathic approach in order to develop goals and strategies that may be most beneficial and effective to suit your needs.
