Therapy gives you the space to work out or simply remember what you want, what options you have to get it - and what gets in the way. We would work together to identify what you need and what changes are required to get closer to this. I believe clear advice can be helpful, drawing on experience and on psychological theory and research, but however we work it must make sense to you and be your choice. Above all, I see us as an alliance of equals with different insights and strengths. This collaboration is at the heart of successful therapy.

Starting therapy can sometimes be a daunting experience. Our first session will be an opportunity for us to get to know each other. You can consider whether I am the right fit for you, and we can explore your goals and motivations for therapy, creating a collaborative plan for potentially working together. With lots of space for any questions you may have! I hold a strong desire to create space for individuals to share their voices, to feel seen and to be heard. Alongside my professional knowledge, I hope to draw from my personal journey to inspire warmth, authenticity, and connection within the therapeutic relationship we build.

Sometimes life gets tough and we can feel we are not coping, this is when we really need someone to hear us. Things that have happened to us in the past can be holding us back in our everyday life now, leaving us with a feeling of being stuck. Exploring those events and your feelings surrounding them can help you move forwards. Clinical Supervision. I aim to create a safe and comfortable space for supervision where you feel able to reflectively explore your work with clients as well as any personal difficulties that may affect this.

Hi! I'm Aika. I consistently strive to be an authentic, curious and professional psychologist, to create a safe space where those I work with can feel like they can speak freely and honestly and be supported with meaningful steps forward in their lives. Though I have lived and worked in the UK for over a decade now, I was born and raised in Hong Kong, a vibrant and multicultural city that I am proud to call home. I read my bachelor’s degree at the University of Cambridge, my master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Sciences at University College London, and my doctorate in clinical psychology at the University of Oxford.

The loss avoidance game becomes a finite cycle, where the pursuit of pleasure "always" wins. Progress means change, rehearsing new ways of thinking or a range of strategies to iterate development safely. The result: a genuine approach for you to find a better way forward. My goal is to enable a strong mental foundation where mindful skills will help you keep life within reach. I am HCPC-registered in clinical, counselling, health, and occupational psychology. Supervisor, providing services beginning from eclectic CBT interventions (ACT, DBT, or ST), the most effective and intuitive psychological framework.

Hi! I'm Erin. Thanks so much for taking the time to read my profile. I always wanted to be a psychologist since I was 12 years old. I even remember the exact spot I was standing when I told my friend that I wasn't sure I would do it because the amount of education required took too long! My hesitation did not last long after I took International Baccalaureate level Psychology in High School and fell in love. Then there was no turning back and after a BA in Psychology, an MSc in Child Development, I completed my doctoral degree and became a psychologist.

Hi! I’m Amy. I’m a Chartered Clinical Psychologist. I was very lucky to really enjoy going to university to study psychology. I quickly knew it was the area I wanted to work in and so began my journey in training to be one, completing masters and doctorate degrees along the way! I’ve worked with lots of different people, including children and young people, older adults and people with intellectual disabilities, neurodevelopmental and neurological conditions. I have also worked with include both child and adult eating disorders, OCD, psychosis, stroke rehabilitation and people who have offended who are staying in hospital.

At the centre of my practice is the importance of humans and other beings. The role I want to play in psychology is to promote social connectedness, positive emotions and meaning in all members of the community, not just those with mental illness. During our lives we are on journey of learning, at times what we experience does not match what we pictured life would be like, this creates conflict within many of us, and we become afraid. When we become afraid we stray from what can be a happier life. But step by step, we can overcome our fears with clarity of mind.
