I am committed to providing psychotherapy in a non-judgemental ,safe and confidential and warm environment . I am experienced therapist with many years of helping clients making sense of their emotions and difficulties .I am an LGBTQ+ & Poly friendly therapist .Psychotherapy provides a safe, regular, reliable and confidential relationship in which to explore life's problems. Change becomes possible and a range of different choices can be made. Short term counselling focuses on immediate life concerns, while longer term psychotherapy explores habitual life patterns and tendencies and how the past impacts the present .

I am a registered Counsellor/Psychotherapist (BACP) with vast experience in clinical and forensic settings in the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. Currently, I am working in the Secondary Care Service within the NHS as a Counselling Psychologist (in-Training) while completing my Professional Doctorate at the University of East London. I use a pluralistic approach that draws upon Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic therapy, and Third Wave Cognitive Behavioural Therapies. I strongly believe that every person is unique, and therefore every session is tailored to suit the client's needs, goals, and personality.

I offer help to people who worry or fear that they won't be understood or that they will be judged by others. Whoever you are, whatever the issue is, I'd like to be able to offer a space for you to be heard and accepted. I can offer a private and safe space simply to be without a mask if that's what you need, or if you have a clear idea of what you want to achieve I'd like to help make that happen. I can work in either a very loose or a structured and outcome-focused way, whichever appeals to you more. But however we decide to work, my focus is always what you want, what you need, what you dream of that you would like to make real.

I am a Psychodynamic Counsellor that works with Children and Young People from ages 3-18 As a Psychodynamic Counsellor I believe that unconscious processes guide our ways of relating to each other. At the centre of my practice is the child’s well-being and safety. I aim to create a safe space for children to feel able to be themselves without judgment, what Winnicott refers as the 'facilitating environment’, where the child’s inner world can be explored.

People come to psychotherapy and counselling for many different reasons. Perhaps it is a time of crisis or difficulty when feelings have become overwhelming and difficult to share with people that you might normally. It could be that this is linked to a desire to gain a deeper self-understanding. Simply talking to the right therapist for you can provide relief. I have a wide experience of working with different conditions and situations, in particular depression, anxiety, anger and relationship issues. I work with an emphasis on facilitating your enquiry in a safe and effective way, within a supportive relationship.

I'm a warm and down-to-earth psychotherapist, currently working both online and in-person in Dalston, London E8. I work weekly with adults on a 1-to-1 basis. I've worked with people experiencing anxiety, depression, low self-worth, relationship difficulties, loneliness & isolation, bereavement, conflicts at work or home, traumatic experiences & finding meaning, amongst many other issues. You may have a more vague sense of dissatisfaction and you don't need to be in crisis to find counselling useful; attending regularly can also be seen as an act of generous self-care, bringing greater insight, perspective & ease.
Gemma Grainger
Being a human is a complex and difficult task. We are all full of conflicting thoughts, feelings and actions at the best of times and when something happens in life - it can be big or small - but it can throw us even further into confusion or feelings we might not be able to put our finger on. I am a qualified psychotherapist and a fellow human being, and I offer a safe place for you to come and talk, or just be. Together we can work towards making the trials of life a bit easier. www.gemmagraingertherapy.co.uk

Psychotherapist, MSc, MBPsS

My name is Karine Flynn (MSc, MBPsS, Spc.ABA) and for the past 20 years I have been helping people understand, accept and love themselves better. My clients come to me because they do not want to spend years in therapy; instead, they wish to spend more time loving and living the lives they have. By replacing old patterns of behaviour that no longer serve you, my job is to guide you into making that a reality! Together we will find the wounds that need healing, identify the changes that could that place, and start building a life that feels more aligned, helping you regain power and take ownership of your own life.

Quite often we have no adequate words to name how we feel, and we may get lost in familiar but unhelpful or hurtful patterns of relationships and behaviours. I offer people who are hurt, worried or isolated with their thoughts to jointly explore ways how to change these patterns.
Gavin Lashley
Counsellor

I am an integrative Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) counsellor, working exclusively online. My main role as a counsellor is to help you connect with how you want to be in the world and to help us work together towards putting that into practice. I believe counselling can be of benefit to anyone who wants support with changing the way they relate to themselves and their environment. It could be, for example, that you are missing out on opportunities due to fear of failure, you feel stuck in a relationship, job, or friendship group, or that whatever you do never seems to quieten the cruel self-critical voice in your head.

You deserve to live a fulfilling and meaningful life.....Do you agree with this statement? Sometimes life feels difficult and losing sight of what is meaningful can cause significant distress. Making time for yourself to understand your thoughts and feelings and establish what you truly value in life is so important.

I have worked extensively with clients with Post Traumatic Stress (PTSD) related difficulties, including difficulties with disturbed sleep, high levels of anxiety and re-experiencing of past traumatic events (nightmares, visual flashbacks, emotional/bodily remembering). I work with a focus on the origins of distress rather than here and now 'symptoms' to enable more lasting change.

The decision to consider therapy can be difficult. It can provoke anxiety about opening up to a new person and can bring up other uncomfortable feelings from past experiences. While therapy can be challenging at times an empathic, supportive and unconditional therapeutic relationship can be very healing. It is where you be fully accepted and can grow. I offer you a therapeutic relationship free from judgment, criticism and expectations where the only agenda is to support you in your process. I have extensive experience working with individuals who experience anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship issues and LGBT issues.

I believe that therapy can help you see your current situation in a new light, with more depth and clarity. It can change unhelpful perspectives and feelings about yourself and your life, and ultimately help you make positive changes. It might be the most important and satisfying journey that you will ever make. Most of my clients are either dealing with a parental wound, childhood trauma, relationship problems, difficult endings, or are professionals challenged by stress, anxiety and/or low mood. I also help clients with addiction and attachment issues and those with couple and family difficulties.
