I’m a psychotherapist interested in wellbeing, care and justice. I have over 15 years of experience of supporting the mental health and wellbeing of individuals, families, and communities. My intention is to co-create therapeutic spaces where people can heal, (un)learn and imagine. As we experiment in the therapy room, new possibilities open up outside.
Alongside my clinical work in private and community settings, I conduct research and teach. I enjoy collaborating with organisations who share a motivation for disrupting normative narratives about mental health and nurture more expansive experiences of wellbeing.

You may have reached a point where coping isn't enough. From the outside your life might look fine, but inside you keep finding yourself caught in the same patterns – whether that's anxiety, difficult relationships, self-criticism, addiction, grief or simply a feeling that something isn't quite working anymore.
Therapy isn't about fixing you. It's about understanding yourself more clearly.
I combine talking therapy, Integrative Arts Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help make sense of experiences that can be difficult to put into words. Sometimes we talk. Sometimes we use drawing, metaphor or creativity to explore

As an integrative therapist with a background in neuroscience I like provide a non judgmental environment while using psycho-education as a way of explaining what is going on in the mind, to lead towards certain decisions that we make and then how those decisions lead back to our emotions. I combine multidisciplinary approaches using motivational interviewing to find your strengths, CBT as a way of finding triggers and solutions. To explore alternative ways of finding happiness and motivation in life. I also offer supervision to other therapists.

Maybe you keep finding yourself in the same painful patterns — in relationships, at work, or in how you feel about yourself — and you're not sure why. Perhaps you're neurodivergent or highly sensitive, and the world often feels like too much. Or you've tried talking things through before, but something deeper still hasn't been reached. You don't need to have the words for it yet. That sense that something needs attention is enough of a place to start — and you're very welcome here.

You might find yourself in pain. Perhaps there is a specific loss, trauma, something that hurts you and makes you want to seek out help. Or perhaps you are looking to address concerns, thoughts or emotions that have caused distress for a while. Maybe you just need help understanding something. I offer a non-judgmental, safe and containing space where the relationship is at the core of all of what we do. Together we will talk, find out what you are looking to achieve, and then we explore your inner world and past together seeking insight that often can help people with emotional growth and help provide answers sought out for so long

I strive to meet you where you are in your emotional landscape, and offer you empathy, support, structure and a space for understanding and accepting everything that has and hasn’t happened in your life, especially in your formative years. My aim is to offer a therapeutic relationship that fosters a safe environment for exploring and understanding your internal world and your relational models. I passionately believe that the process of Psychotherapy enables an honest examination of your world. It allows an opportunity of accepting what you encounter within. This can instigate meaningful and transformative changes.

Hello! I am a qualified and accredited psychotherapist, working from a lovely studio in Wimbledon Village. I work with clients facing a range of difficult issues in their lives. This can be long or short-term work. I accompany my clients along their the journey of deeper self-knowledge, understanding how adverse childhood circumstances left their mark. I help people to discover lost parts of themselves, so they can show up more fully in the world. This involves finding new qualities, taking back projections, reconciling opposites in the psyche and finding balance.

Hi, I'm Zoë (she/her) and I'm a relational-existential psychotherapist based in Hackney. I work with people grappling with their place in the world and the big questions of meaning, purpose, identity, belonging and existential anxiety. I offer a space to reflect and contemplate what it means to be you. Having an awareness of the systems and structures we live within is another important part of my practice. We cannot separate who we are, and the problems we face, from the world around us. My approach tries to help you to see yourself not just as an individual but part of a larger collection of people, places and histories.

Throughout my life, I have had numerous encounters and experiences that have shaped my understanding of the human condition and ignited my desire to make a positive difference in people's lives. These encounters, combined with my innate empathy and compassion, have fostered my deep interest in counselling. They have taught me that people seek support not only when they are in crisis, but also when they are trying to make sense of their identity, relationships, and emotional world. This understanding forms the foundation of the work I do and the clients I feel most called to support.

Life can be difficult, and we all go through times of challenge, uncertainty, or emotional pain. You may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or struggling to make sense of your thoughts or emotions. Perhaps things that once helped no longer do, or something in your life has shifted. You may be looking for understanding, relief from distress, or a way forward that feels more manageable and meaningful.

My degree is in Psychotherapy and I am also CPAB registered. I work intuitively with children and adults using whatever theory & practice best suits my clients' needs. I believe that when we are able to make sense of our responses to life, we are then able to choose and journey towards a healthier happy future. I have been counselling since 2013 and have worked in several schools with parents and children. If you are experiencing anxiety, depression or keep finding yourself in patterns of behaviour that are hindering you from your full potential, I would love to offer some support and explore possibilities.

Hi, it’s nice to meet you. My name is Pavan. I’m based in London and work online with clients across Europe. I work with individuals tired of pretending they’re fine: thoughtful, capable and outwardly together, yet anxious, burnt out or quietly lost. I offer a deeper, non-clinical space where you don’t have to perform or explain yourself. Shaped by both training and my own therapy, I work gently and honestly. I’m drawn to sensitive, intuitive people who learned to survive by being strong or accommodating. Therapy becomes the place you get to soften and be seen.
