I'm an arts based psychotherapist with a practice in Tufnell Park, North London. I work with adults on a one-to-one basis, offering to help reclaim a sense of safety, agency and empowerment following difficulties in childhood or traumatic experiences. I also offer help managing feelings of depression and anxiety, or in navigating changes and life transitions. I have an interest in working with people who feel consistently misunderstood, or for whom life feels like it has lost its substance, and seek to work collaboratively to help cultivate a sense of trust, value and integrity in oneself

Would you like a Safe Space to Speak Freely and Explore whatever is on 'Your Mind'? As an experienced and registered Psychotherapist, I have worked with a diverse range of people struggling with a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, feelings of sadness, loneliness and emptiness, low self-esteem and confidence, and difficulties in relating. I would work to help you make sense of your feelings, moods, behaviour and motivations. Helping you understand and resolve your difficulties by increasing awareness of your inner world and its influence over your relationship with yourself and others.

Hello, I'm Luisa (she/they), a clinical psychologist with significant experience and expertise in integrating psychodynamic, trauma-informed, LGBTQIA+, and feminist approaches in my practice. Over the past decade, I have worked with individuals of all ages, backgrounds, and conditions in Bogota, New York, and London, gaining valuable insights from diverse settings including psychiatric hospitals, after-school programmes, psychosocial trauma, gender-based violence, immigration-related emotional reactions, and more.

Life can become overwhelming, confusing, and difficult to manage. Experiences such as loss, bereavement and major life changes like a medical crisis can make us lose our sense of self and purpose. Depression, anxiety and personality disorders can distort our sense of self, rob us off our full personal potential and quality of life leaving us feeling depleted. Therapy is a place to regain and restore your sense of self and purpose and to help you turn these experiences to an opportunity to grow.

For the past eighteen years I’ve worked as a psychotherapist in both the public and private sector. This means not only am I experienced in working with colleagues and clients from a wide variety of social and cultural backgrounds, I have also helped clients through a range of issues including anxiety, depression, relationship/family issues, trauma, abuse, bereavement, stress and low self-esteem.

I am a fully qualified experienced and accredited psychotherapist working with individuals and couples (since 1992). I am currently adding to my qualifications by training as a psychosexual therapist. My aim is to build a safe and holding space for a trusting relationship to develop where you can explore and share your thoughts, feelings, behaviours and problems/difficulties. I believe that you have many of the answers you are seeking within yourself.

If you are in pain and willing to work hard, then I might be the person you need. I'm experienced at helping people with a wide range of issues and have a proven track-record of collaborative working to reduce suffering and enhance awareness. Whatever the nature of your pain the core of this work is self-expression and self-exploration to find a freer, healthier way to be in the world. This involves a balance of self-acceptance and change. I will be deeply present along side you in this exploration.

Reasons for seeking counselling may vary and these could include a wide range of psychological or emotional distress as well as the need to explore your life more deeply or reflect on particular life decisions or dilemmas. The way we approach challenges in life and the thoughts, feelings and behaviours that arise from them can sometimes be the source of further suffering which can be experienced as shame, self-criticism, isolation, self-loathing, self-blame and deep emotional suffering.

Life can be a whole lot harder and more overwhelming than many like to admit, and reaching out for support is no easy task. So well done on getting this far- you don't have to struggle on your own anymore. The therapy I offer is an opportunity to share your truth and be seen, in the compassionate, non-judgemental space I hold for you each week. I will endeavour to be alongside you with whatever it is you need to share, whatever the emotional weather. Together we will begin to question old narratives that no longer serve you and look at how you operate in the world, in relationship and how you find meaning.

I am an experienced Clinical Psychologist with over 13 years of experience in the NHS. I work with many different problems - with a focus on anxiety, trauma, low mood, fatigue, body shame, relationship difficulties and psychosexual difficulties. I often focus on difficulties with connection - with others and/or yourself and your body. I work well with clients who have busy minds and struggle to switch internal conflicts and dilemmas. I mostly work with cognitive behavioural therapy approaches (BABCP accredited) - however always tailor these individually to my clients and focus strongly on creating a safe space for change.

I firmly believe that we are fundamentally relational beings, ones that need security, understanding & care above all else. Real change comes not from trying to fix thinking patterns, self-concepts or the past, but in shifting relational dynamics in the here and now and finding new ways of being with another. This is what I focus on in therapy with my clients, and I draw on my background and experience in modern relational psychoanalysis, developmental theory, and in depth study of phenomenology & existential philosophy to look at what emerges and how that can inform meaningful change in your life.

I am a psychotherapist and addiction specialist with 27 years experience of working in addiction. I work in the short and long-term, on a weekly, fortnightly and ad-hoc basis with young and older adults to help them with addiction and the issues that underlie their dependence, including anxiety, anger, depression and relational difficulties.

Sometimes life throws up challenges that are too hard to cope with alone and therapy provides a safe and confidential place to work through those challenges. Whether you’re experiencing low mood, anxiety, depression or recurrent issues from your past, talking things through with a trained therapist can help you understand yourself better. With more clarity on how you’re feeling and why, you have more choice in how you react and respond to your feelings. You can begin to develop the self-compassion and the coping mechanisms to live a calmer and happier future.

I provide a calm and confidential therapy space which encourages self-exploration though the therapeutic relationship as well as creative processes. I have an integrative approach which includes modalities such as art therapy, guided drawing and EMDR therapy.

'Be yourself, everyone else is taken' advised Oscar Wilde but sometimes, it can feel hard and complicated just ‘to be’. I'm Candida, an Integrative Arts Psychotherapist (IAP). I believe much mental distress and deep unhappiness stems from a loss of contact; primarily with ourselves. Therapy is about beginning a conversation to find sense in the intense, difficult feelings that make life so challenging. Pain needs a voice. It needs to be heard. I am listening.

Hello and welcome. I am a Psychotherapeutic Counsellor and work with both current life problems as well as long-term conditions.
