I am a Counselling Psychologist with experience in CBT, humanistic counselling and currently working from a psychodynamic and integrative standpoint. I believe that transformation can occur through a trusting therapeutic alliance which encourages a collaborative space to work with an individual’s unique aims and concerns for a more enriched life. I have experience across many forms of mental health issues, and currently work in addiction and trauma, alongside working with individuals who are experiencing high levels of anxiety.

Lea Misan
Psychotherapist, MUKCP
North London, London N3
My clients are typically committed to their own personal development. They often come looking for relief from a particular problem in their lives. Typically, they become curious about and want to disentangle the collective and family issues from who they are and to explore new patterns of being in the world through which they can be more of themselves. I am interested in engaging with diversity issues that both enrich and trouble us. I have been active for many years in community building between communities, organisations and institutions of learning.

Nick Gendler
Counsellor, BACP
North London, London N3
I work with adults who are finding it hard to cope with the challenges life presents, perhaps, anxiety and stress, relationship issues, loss and bereavement, depression or sadness.
My approach is to listen carefully in a non-judgemental way, to understand you, and to help you to find ways to be happier and more satisfied. It's not my style to sit quietly and nod, but to be part of the process as you figure things out and make good decisions for yourself. I hope you will find me accepting, engaging, and challenging where appropriate.

I offer online stand-alone sessions and short, medium, and long-term therapy, in English and Italian, for individuals and for relationships
Whatever the reason that brought you here, I imagine it was not an easy journey. At times we feel estranged from ourselves, and this spills over into our outward-facing life; other times a major change or loss comes into our life and we struggle to cope. We might experience dark thoughts and feelings, find them disturbing, and start believing there is something wrong with us. In therapy, we look at these parts of life: what is scary when faced alone can become bearable when it is understood together. Over time, we can come to see that life has many layers, and that difficult emotions are a natural part of being human.

Psychotherapist, MA, MUKCP

As a therapist I aim to provide a safe none judgemental therapeutic space for individuals, couples or families to reflect on the challenges that they maybe experiencing in their relationships which could be impacting on their emotional well being.
Nathalie is informed within her practice by a relational trauma informed approach, this is a relational framework where the therapeutic process focuses on thinking together with the respective family members at how past relationships and experiences can be enacted in current relationships culminating in unhelpful and conflictual disconnected communication.

They vary depending the type of work (individuals or couple), and the length of sessions (60 to 90 minutes).
Adverse life events are always at the root of suffering. This is why my work is Trauma Focused. Remembering painful events can cause a great deal of distress, dissociation, and in my opinion, it is not always the right approach. This is why I prefer focusing on Reconciling with symptoms as opposed to Remembering the past. My approach is an Integrative, Embodied, and Radically Relational Psychotherapy that promotes safety and trust within the self by using resources. This enable the roots of distress to reconcile with the present and symptoms to be released.

FAQ - About Couples Therapy
Does couples counseling work?
Research shows that couples counseling is effective; it can reduce relationship distress and improve emotional awareness, communication, empathy, intimacy, and overall relationship satisfaction. For example, emotionally focused therapy was found to be effective for about 75 percent of couples, and those benefits lasted at least two years.

When should a couple seek counseling?
Couples can benefit from counseling if they consistently struggle in their relationship. They may have lost the ability to communicate effectively, become entrenched in harmful patterns, begun to fight more than usual, broken the other’s trust, suffered from a mental or physical illness, or faced any number of other challenges. Many therapists offer free consultations, so if a couple isn’t sure whether therapy is necessary, asking directly can provide clarity.

How can I get my partner to go to couples therapy?
The decision to seek couples therapy is often driven by one partner, who then convinces the other to participate. When discussing the idea, the initiator should be direct and assertive. They can state the problems they see and explain how the relationship would benefit from therapy. In more serious cases, they can also explain how their relationship may suffer without making any changes or seeking professional help.

How does a couple prepare for couples counseling?
The anticipation of beginning couples counseling can be difficult—sometimes more difficult than the first session itself. Taking a few moments to reflect can allay those concerns: What are the current challenges? When and how did they begin? What do they want the relationship to look like in the future? Reflecting on these questions can help individuals or couples articulate their goals. Of course, the therapist will also ask questions and guide couples through the process.
