Hispanic and Latino Counselling in London
I help high-performing professionals/entrepreneurs, they are often driven by logic and working in tech/finance/law/media/arts. I specialise in helping people develop a relationship with their body, and to understand the impact of their feelings and emotions on the body and vice versa. I often work with those with experience of living life on the edge, and/or complex, troubled relationships. I work well with people for whom talking about personal matters feels very difficult. I am not easily shocked and I also understand the need for taking things slowly and sensitively. My approach is kind, practical, down-to-earth and creative.

Trained in a Humanistic-Integrative perspective, I hold the belief that everyone has the innate capacity for growth and healing, when in a supportive and understanding environment. Therefore at the heart of my practice is to establish a secure, safe, therapeutic relationship built on trust, empathy, and collaboration.
I believe our early relationships and experiences deeply influence how we feel about ourselves and connect with others. When those needs weren’t fully met, it can show up later as anxiety, low mood, or struggles in relationships. Therapy offers a space to gently explore those patterns and create new ways of being.

My ideal clients are adults and young adults living with the effects of early trauma, emotionally unsafe relationships, loss, or long-standing patterns of shame and anxiety. Many are thoughtful and self-aware, and may have had therapy before, yet still feel stuck or disconnected in some way. They are often looking for something deeper: a space where they don’t have to rush, explain, or perform, and where change can happen at a pace that feels manageable.

I often work with high-functioning professionals, creatives, or students who look "fine" on the outside but are exhausted on the inside. Over-thinkers, people-pleasers and conflict avoiders (Anxiety) who criticize themselves constantly (Low Self-Esteem). Individuals who might be going through or fearing a breakup and those who are grieving from major life changes (Endings). Where previous therapy felt like just "venting" and led to no lasting change, OR have tried apps/CBT and felt it was too surface-level.
Sounding familiar? Do you want to finally understand why you are this way, and learn how to cope with emotional pain?

Life sometimes brings moments when our usual ways of understanding ourselves no longer feel enough. Periods of change, uncertainty, or emotional difficulty can also become opportunities for deeper reflection and transformation.
Therapy can offer a space to reflect, make sense of these experiences, and discover new possibilities for change.
I am working with Transactional Analysis, a relational approach to psychotherapy that focuses on understanding communication patterns, emotional experience, and the ways we relate to ourselves and others. My approach is collaborative and thoughtful.

It is difficult to know why you might be seeking therapy, it could involve feeling distressed, anxious, angry, depressed or in despair. It might also be a life event, which has left you in an unexpected place, presenting you with difficult feelings and choices.

You might be at a point where you feel disconnected from yourself, constantly wearing a mask, or trapped in a state of high alert. You’re likely great at holding it all together for everyone else, but underneath, you feel completely exhausted and overwhelmed. It might be hard to remember the last time you felt truly at ease or enjoyed your life.
If you are looking for a space where you can finally put the mask down, you are in the right place.

If you feel exhausted by constant anxiety and catastrophizing…
If sadness, emptiness, or emotional numbness feels like your default state…
If you struggle with low self-worth, shame, and a harsh inner critic…
If your mind overthinks, ruminates, and won’t slow down…
If trusting others feels unsafe and relationships evoke a fear of rejection, abandonment, or reliving past harm…
If unresolved trauma from abuse keeps your body and mind stuck in survival mode…
You are not broken—and you are not alone.
As your therapist, I will support you in reconnecting with yourself and rebuilding trust in your inner voice.

I’m Julia Queiroz (PhD), a qualified Clinical Psychologist (licensed in UK, Portugal and Brazil) offering trauma-informed therapy in English, Portuguese and Spanish. I integrate Somatic Experiencing (SE), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and the NeuroAffective Relational Model (NARM, in training) to support adults struggling with anxiety, perfectionism, people-pleasing, emotional suppression, and childhood trauma. Many of the people I work with long for more authentic connection but feel stuck in patterns of tension, overwhelm, or self-doubt.

Most people I see have been managing anxiety for a long time. They've tried pushing through it, reasoning with it, sometimes medication. What they haven't tried is structured work that actually targets what's keeping the problem going.
I work with adults dealing with OCD, Health Anxiety and Panic Disorder. Sessions are online, I work with clients across London and the UK, not just those near a particular office.
CBT is practical and time-limited. We focus on what's maintaining the difficulty now, not extended exploration of the past.

People who come to see me often carry the weight of secrets, unresolved stress, and strained relationships, leading to an internal world that feels unmanageable. Without someone they feel secure enough to confide in, these challenges can feel overwhelming, affecting their ability to live more fulfilling lives. For many, experiences like loss, neglect, or difficult childhoods contribute to anxiety, depression, and feelings of disconnection, issues with sex and sexuality and inability to make life changes. Having a space to talk openly and in confidence can bring relief, making what once felt unmanageable more manageable.

Life can be overwhelming: loneliness, divorce, grief, parenting or work challenges, even natural transitions can feel isolating and daunting to navigate alone. I offer a safe, confidential space to identify and work through what is troubling you. You can expect to explore unresolved issues and gain greater understanding of yourself and your patterns of relating. I am interested in the roles we take within families, couples and work. Prior to re-training, I had a career in law and finance, so am familiar with high-pressure environments, stress and the search for a healthy life balance.
