Internal Family Systems (IFS) Counselling in Southwark
Finding a therapist can be hard, take your time. I'll tell you a bit about me and if you'd like to give me a call, please do.
I want to work with you if you want to be in therapy. If you’ve got niggles or glaring big signs that keep you up at night, if you’re depressed, if you know you’re not quite where you want to be, if you see the past hovering in your present, I’d love to work together.

Whist integrating many useful approaches to therapeutic work, such as relational psychodynamic, somatic, and IFS, I work from a black empathic and feminist perspective, which welcomes people of all genders, racial and ethnic identities, and (dis)abilities, recognising that every person's experience must be seen in context of their position in their family, culture, and wider society.
Hi, I'm Karmela, a counsellor and psychotherapist working in N12 9EH, SW1V 3SG, and SW7 4TE and online. As a fully qualified and insured practitioner, I work with you collaboratively, as a team focused on you, where you are the expert on your life and I provide empathy, challenge, insight and practical strategies. The most important aspect of therapy is that we "click" and feel a connection that allows you to open up and feel safe and understood. Whether you're looking for more clarity in your life, support with life changes, relationships, managing anxiety or depression, or exploring your identity we can work through it together.

Using Attachment-Informed EMDR, Gestalt Therapy, Internal Family Systems and somatic approaches, I help clients create deep, lasting change.
Life is precious. You want to live fully—to love deeply, pursue meaningful work, create, contribute, and feel at home in yourself. Yet something keeps getting in the way. You may struggle with anxiety, self-doubt, people-pleasing, perfectionism, relationship difficulties, procrastination, or a persistent sense that you're somehow not enough. Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, capable and successful on the outside, yet internally feel stuck in painful patterns. They long to stop abandoning themselves in order to belong and create a more authentic, fulfilling life.

I draw on a relational and integrative approach including Cognitive Analytic Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Compassion Focussed Therapy and Internal Family Systems to help my clients to recognise patterns that no longer serve them, and to identify healthier ways of relating to themselves and other people.
I offer compassionate, trauma-informed support for personal growth. I'll support you to recognise the ways in which trauma is impacting the ways you relate to yourself and others, and to also uncover new strengths and pathways for meaningful personal growth beyond the challenges you've experienced.
I have often found that understanding people's diagnoses and symptoms as responses to what they have lived through is valuable in helping them shed the self-blame they might carry. Often, people find themselves stuck in cycles of behaviour that no longer serve them, yet feel at a loss for how to make meaningful change.

You’ve explored BPD, C-PTSD and Depression and related to everything a little. Maybe you’ve been “holding it together” for so long, you barely notice the weight anymore. You care deeply and overthink everything. You find yourself stuck replaying patterns or caught in a loop of shame and self-doubt. Or maybe you have a difficult relationship with your feelings. You consider leaving before anyone else does.
I work with people who are tired of just surviving. My approach is shaped by Interpersonal Neurobiology and Attachment theory and by the belief that your body remembers, you matter, and it’s okay to never get over some things.

Seeking therapy can be a scary decision. I do believe however that the issues prompting you to come to me have the potential to enable you to move into a new level of self-understanding. A key principle of my particular therapy - Psychosynthesis, suggests that the symptoms of our problems can indicate a deeper meaning or potential trying to emerge in our lives. Our work together will try to discover what that might be. To achieve this I offer a focused approach for a specific issue in short-term work or we can go into more depth for work in the longer term.

I offer something intentional and personal. Therapy with me feels like a conversation, but clients often find it goes beyond feeling heard — they feel genuinely guided.
There is direction here, not just space.
Together, we untangle the roots of what's keeping you stuck, rebuild self-worth, and work toward relationships grounded in honesty and safety.
The result is greater clarity, emotional freedom, and a life that feels genuinely your own.

I have experience with clients who are undergoing significant changes and difficulties in personal relationships, employment or life in general. You may have high levels of anxiety or stress; you may be facing, or have been through a separation, divorce or family issues; you may have lost someone close to you through bereavement; perhaps you are experiencing sadness or depression; perfectionism; low self-esteem; or the wide ranging impacts of trauma. The therapy we do together provides a compassionate, confidential space in which to explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences, with an openness to whatever concerns you bring.

Alongside EMDR and Schema Therapy, I integrate approaches including IFS, CBT, DBT, ACT, MBT, and MI to adapt therapy to your individual needs.
I’m a registered Principal Psychologist, EMDR Europe Accredited Practitioner and Consultant-in-training, and ISST Certified Schema Therapist with over 15 years of experience. I specialise in trauma, complex PTSD, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and relationship or family difficulties. My approach goes beyond simply understanding problems on an intellectual level. I believe deeper healing happens when we work with the emotional and bodily impact of our experiences, not just the thoughts around them. I help clients understand and break free from deeper patterns that keep them stuck and affect their relationships and wellbeing.

I work integratively, drawing from DDP, IFS-informed therapy, Mentalisation, Life Story work and sensory-based regulation.
With over a decade of experience as a UKCP-registered Child & Adolescent Psychotherapist, many families come to me because their child or young adult is anxious, overwhelmed, autistic, traumatised, or struggling with big emotions. You may feel exhausted or unsure how to help them feel calmer and more connected. You want someone who understands your child’s world, supports you as a parent, and can also help older teens/young adults who feel stuck or lost. Many families I meet feel isolated or unseen, and they’re looking for my support to help the whole family feel more connected and move forward.

I work with individuals and couples navigating complex trauma, relationship difficulties, or major life transitions. Many come seeking deeper, lasting resolution when standard talk therapy feels insufficient on its own.
We help clients move forward by combining somatic EMDR, psychosynthesis, and trauma-informed body-mind approaches. Rather than focusing only on symptoms, we address both cognitive and somatic levels. This gentle, integrative care allows clients to safely process underlying emotional pain, break unhelpful relational patterns, and rebuild grounded emotional resilience.

I am Relate trained specialising in Relationship and Sex Therapy. In order to keep our relationships healthy we need to attend to them to ensure they remain respectful, trusting, sexual and happy. Because of the busyness of day to day life, we can easily disconnect from our partners without realising it leading to a lack of communication, conflict, affairs, and dissatisfaction. When married, or when children are involved, these problems become even more complex. It might even be that since the country's lockdown, you are now realising there are issues in your relationship. Now could be a good time to resolve these.

I am also influenced by body psychotherapy, IFS, polyvagal theory and attachment theory.
I work with a wide variety of people, but people who have seen me include queer people, trans and non-binary people, neurodivergent people (especially late discovered and high masking autistic and ADHD women and afab people), people who are non-monogamous, people from a working class background, people of colour, sex workers, and people who practice kink/BDSM. I also frequently work with people who have auto-immune or chronic illness, and those with Long Covid. My therapeutic approach is influenced by queer theory, intersectional feminism and disability justice.

Are you asking big questions of life, feeling lost, hopeless or stuck? Maybe you are facing unwanted changes or undergoing a big transition in your life. Perhaps you are having difficulties in relationships or struggling to connect to purpose. Or maybe, you are experiencing chronic physical symptoms, such as fatigue, and you are curious how your emotions and past might impact those symptoms. It takes courage to seek out therapy. I hope you can honour that impulse in yourself and find the right person to work with. You have innate strength, goodness and resourcefulness; counselling is a way to undercover your unique wholeness.
