Counselling in London

I offer evidence-based therapy and coaching. I will help you challenge the way you think about your life, and to behave in new ways. We won’t just talk about the causes of your problems, like a lot of therapy. I tend to work with successful people who on the surface are doing OK, but underneath are really struggling. I'm not the expert on how you should live your life; but I can help and guide you towards feeling better and living the life you want. I've co-written the book on what the evidence shows makes up the best therapy – A Straight Talking Introduction to Therapy. So, you can be reassured you're in good hands.

Clients come to me when they feel hopeless, misunderstood and stuck; they may be looking for a way to feel more connection and joy; they often know that life could and should be better for them, that their mental health could be stronger, but they just cannot get there on their own. I work well with clients who have experienced loss and those who are trying to find their place in a new life stage, as well as individuals who are impacted by shame and those seeking healing from past trauma. I have significant experience working with LGBTQ+ clients, people in non-traditional relationships and neuroatypical people.

I am an accredited psychotherapist and counsellor who works is based in the Kensington, Nottinghill area of central / west London. I meet and talk with people who, maybe like you, want to change how they feel. There may be something specific that you are aware of (depression, anxiety, bereavement), but often the specifics of the difficulty might not be apparent, but the unhappiness is. My work with my clients is about surfacing what's going and helping clients process their feelings to reach a happier, more settled place. I am Certified by the European Association of Psychotherapy and have been DBS checked and cleared.

I offer psychotherapy and counselling to individuals at my private practice in Highgate and King’s Cross. I also provide these services online. I work with individuals that are seeking help with a current issue, such as a bereavement or a relationship breakup, and those with long-standing issues such as addictions, childhood trauma or chronic depression. With this in mind, I offer short and long-term therapy. My training is psychodynamic and I am a registered member of the BACP.

Are you feeling exhausted, stressed and overwhelmed? Are you in physical or emotional pain, working relentlessly in different areas of your life: at work, home or study, in relationships, caring or parental roles? Do you need to make sense of, and overcome trauma, feelings of sadness, low-self esteem or burnout? As a third generation British Jamaican Psychologist, managing long-term conditions whilst being a mother of three, I warmly welcome clients of all ages and walks of life, and have a passion for supporting people living alongside mental, physical or neurological difficulties and trauma.

It can be difficult to take that first step of finding help, especially if you are finding it hard to pinpoint what is wrong. People around us often push us towards decisions that might not be right for us and might not be ours. I seek to give someone the space and time to explore what is happening, with an honest, open response that enables them to think about their own wants and needs and to have autonomy over their decisions. My practice is GSRD (Gender, Sexuality and Relationship Diversity) informed.

As an integrative counsellor, I'm here to provide you with a welcoming, non-judgmental, and compassionate space where you can explore challenging thoughts, emotions, and life experiences. I appreciate the courage it takes to confront difficult aspects of your life and acknowledge the significant step you have taken by reaching out. My private practice is located in North Acton, W3, where I offer in-person sessions. I am dedicated to providing a personalised, client-centered service that encourages you to be your authentic self and embark on a therapeutic journey.

Hello and welcome to my profile. I'm an experienced, qualified integrative therapeutic counsellor. Effective counselling can be life-changing and I offer warmth, care, sensitivity and support for adults of any age and background in person in SE1 and via Zoom. Our sessions will involve us working together to explore your thoughts, feelings, perceptions, experiences and meanings. Whether you are struggling with big life issues from the past (eg childhood, family), present (eg relationships, loss), long-term difficulties (eg anxiety, depression, self-esteem) or feel lost, low or unsure of how you feel, counselling with me can help.

The people I work with come from dysfunctional families where their needs, physical or emotional, were neglected or abused. This may result in addictions, and relationships difficulties. Codependents might try to support another or others while lacking the support they themselves need. A client wrote about our work together: "Yveline really helped me look at things that were holding me back in my life, & in a supportive way, helped me process them and understand how they impacted my life. I didn't know how much I needed this till I made a breakthrough and things made sense. I feel much better, with a clearer vision of my future."

As a psycho-dynamic practitioner, I see my role first as to provide you with a safe and confidential space in which explore whatever issues you may be experiencing. At unpacking what seem to be the problem, I would listen up to the symptoms but my interest would be on the collaborative understanding of the underlying cause. Exploring and understanding this, would be the body of the work. And it is that, what brings change, and a change that is lasting because will be located not in the symptom but on what caused it in the first place.

My name is Tarryn Klotnick and I am a couples and family psychotherapist offering both short and long term therapy. I hold a Masters of Science in Couples and Family Therapy from King's College, London. I have worked in Child Adolescent Mental Health and Paediatric Health care both in Melbourne, Australia and London, United Kingdom. I have worked in the NHS for the last 14 years. Please note, I currently have availability to work with you online only at the moment.

I am an Integrative Counsellor and Life Coach. Additionally, I am a Chartered Psychologist with the British Psychological Society, holding a PhD in Addiction Psychology. I am passionate about supporting people who are struggling to overcome addictive behaviour, mental health challenges, or who simply need a safe space to talk through their difficulties. I feel deeply inspired by the resilience, adaptability and capacity for change shown by individuals when faced with difficult circumstances. My aim is to listen to you attentively, compassionately and without judgement.

I am an experienced therapist who can give you the time and space to explore and focus on your emotions, needs and potential. You might be a couple stuck in a repeating pattern of arguments or stand offs, not communicating, lacking intimacy and feeling alone. Or an individual struggling with relationships and life, wanting to reach your full potential, gain insight into yourself and connect with others. You might have experienced past trauma, feel in crisis or just want time for yourself to be really listened to. If so, get in touch - I offer a free 20 minute online consultation before we commit to working together.

I offer a collaborative experience in which we will clarify your unique needs and circumstances. Every person’s journey to therapy is different. You may be experiencing psychological difficulties, such as depression or anxiety, or a general sense of feeling stuck and unfulfilled, or burnt out. You may have had difficult early life experiences that continue to impact you today. All of these may negatively affect your relationships, career, self-esteem and overall happiness, as well as your physical health. Sometimes therapy can help you make sense of these.

My name is Peter Evans and I am a BPC accredited and MBACP registered psychodynamic counsellor. I am particularly interested in clients for whom anxiety, depression, a sense of isolation and low self-esteem are the principal concerns. We all have our blind spots and these blind spots have the capacity to impoverish and sometimes damage significantly our relationships with others. Additionally, our relationship to our own body can equally be affected. Therapy can transform blind spots into insight, choice and new outcomes.

Hello, I'm Sarah. I am a compassionate, trauma-informed therapist who can offer you a safe and confidential space within which we can explore the issues and difficulties you might be facing in your life, with empathy and without judgement. My specialisation is in helping with trauma, including recent or historic sexual abuse and/or other violence. We might explore low self-worth, loneliness, guilt, shame, anger, feelings of being misunderstood, humiliated or control issues and other possibly connected behaviours or feelings. I also provide help with anxiety and depression, dating and relationships and that powerful inner critic!

Are things in your life feeling overwhelming? Perhaps you have a niggling sense of unease that you can’t ignore. Maybe you are feeling the weight of an old wound, or looking to find your way through a fresh one. Depression, feeling sad, anxiety, stress, grief, bereavement, panic attacks, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, spirituality, gender or sexual identity, including LGBTQIA+ experiences, are just a few of the reasons that you might be seeking psychotherapy. Whatever you are feeling, you are not alone. And whatever brings you to therapy, you are welcome and deserving of the space to talk.

If you are struggling to cope, feeling anxious, depressed or insecure, then consider counselling with me. I can help you make sense of your feelings and gain a better understanding of yourself, resulting in a positive change in your life. Therapy with me gives you the opportunity to gain insight into why you feel the way you do and how you relate to other people. You are invited to think with me in a confidential environment about yourself and your feelings, whilst considering how these feelings may be linked to some of your earlier life experiences and what emotional impact they may have had on your current life.
