I also work with parents where the focus is on their relationship with their child/ren and I work with parent and child together when needed.
I offer brief and long term psychotherapy with a focus on the underlying issues that are causing distress. The aim of this work is to identify and alleviate the obstacles to happiness, to make sense of challenging behaviour and feelings and to enrich relationships.

My systemic training as well as Terry Neal, Ester Perel and Dr Sue Johnson's Emotionally Focused Therapy informs my practice when working with couples, including co- parenting post-divorce.
I have worked in the NHS for 25 years, across a variety of settings and am currently undertaking an MA in Family Therapy. Neuro-biology and Somatic psychology are also areas that inform my practice. This includes helping individuals to understand choices around mental health medication, how the body and mind are 'one' and are both informed by the 'fight or flight' response, attachment styles and survival strategies. I use NVR (Non-Violent Resolution) to support families and young people with challenging behaviours.

I have additional training in a variety of approaches to parenting, conflict resolution and emotional regulation.
Relationships can provide us with support and also lead to stress, conflict and misunderstandings. That's why they're at the centre of systemic psychotherapy. I meet with people to think about the changes they want to see within significant relationships in their lives. It’s important that you come to therapy feeling confident that you won’t be judged and that your strengths will be recognised. My role is to provide a safe and supportive therapeutic space, where people can explore their worries and problems, and find ways to move forward with their lives. I'll sometimes discuss strategies that others have found helpful.

You might be at this stage of your life that you are seeking a new identity or the previous roles/ priorities you had in your life don’t satisfy you anymore.

Dr. Aysha Begum (Blackheath Therapy)
Psychologist, PhD, HCPC - Clin. Psych.
South London, London SE3
I have specifically worked with children, adolescents, neurodevelopmental/learning difficulties and couples/families struggling with parenting and/or child mental health difficulties as well as difficulties within the couple and family relationships.
As a clinical psychologist I work across the age span i.e. from childhood to older age, and with all types of emotional and psychological difficulties. I use a range of psychological therapies including Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive and Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness-based CBT, Trauma-focused CBT, Narrative Exposure Therapy (NET), Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) and Dialectic Behavioural Therapy (DBT). I also accept BUPA clients.

I offer 1:1 child sessions as well as 1:1 parent coaching to help you understand what your child is communicating through their behaviour
I am a child-centred play therapist working with children, primarily from 4-12 years of age. I provide a safe, empathetic and accepting space for your child to explore what is troubling them. My approach is play based and primarily non-directive. However, for some children a slightly more directive approach can be helpful. Each child is unique, therefore the sessions will be tailored to your child and meeting their individual needs. A play based approach can be useful for children who may find it difficult to express how they feel into words.

I can support the parent infant relationship through sessions with both parent and infant together.
I work with challenges that may arise for parents at different stages, including fertility issues and baby loss, gender disappointment, fear of birth, birth trauma, intrusive thoughts, antenatal and postnatal anxiety and depression, difficulty bonding. I support parents to adjust whether it is their first child or they are juggling a growing family. I believe that people are always trying their best to cope, but sometimes these ways of coping stop working as well or become problems themselves. I know how much pressure there is to be ‘perfect’ parents and how much strain that can cause.

Whether you're a parent seeking guidance, a young person struggling with emotions, or a family facing communication breakdowns, you want a space to feel heard, understood, and supported in making sense of these challenges.
As a psychodynamic psychotherapist, I provide a safe space to explore emotions and relationships. With NHS and school experience, I’ve supported children with autism, ADHD, and trauma. I offer both short- and long-term therapy, helping individuals and families process challenges, develop emotional resilience, and strengthen relationships in a meaningful way.

Often clients need help through major life transitions around work issues, relationships, problems as either a parent or as a son or daughter , and the way that some of these can collide at the same time.
I love my work and am blessed to be able to work with clients at a crossroads in their lives and help them break through current difficulties by understanding how ingredients in their past are obstructing their progress and their decision making. We work together to unlock unhelpful beliefs and find freedom from dynamics that are holding them back, at home and in the workplace, in relationships with partners, family members and friends. No problem is ever too small and it is often the ones you feel embarrassed to bring that are key to unlocking the problem.

Are you an expectant or new parent finding parenthood hard?
I now work as a Clinical Psychologist in two specialist services: an NHS service for expectant and new parents and children’s social services, where I support young people (16-25) leaving the care system. In my different professional roles, I appreciate how our early history and circumstances shape our relational patterns and how we see the world.

Some key issues I specialise in include: improving the safety/quality of relationships (ie. trust, communication, intimacy); improving mental wellbeing (ie. stress, anxiety, depression); recovery from trauma/abuse; parenting/family issues; grief/loss; impact of oppression related to racism, sexism, or gender identity).
Change starts with a willingness to experiment with difference. My role as your therapist is to help you to envision your preferred future and take action to make that vision a reality. You may have questions and uncertainties you wish to explore and I can help you to consider your dilemmas, and help you to make choices to improve your life.

I have training in Restorative justice practices and, training as a Parent support worker, Bereavement training, extensive volunteer work.
Childhood trauma, unhealthy patterns, addiction and trauma can all result in unresolved pain. Being able to explore that pain in a non judgemental, confidential, empathic space can be an essential life changing experience. Many clients come to therapy wanting change and emotional health, awareness of where that pain comes from and the journey to understand its impact on our lives today is a crucial part of healing. Often our trauma is not recognised, believed or simply understood. Yet we're living with the impact of these issues. It takes courage to acknowledge our pain but for those who can it can give us the tools to change.
