Psychodynamic Counselling in London

Hello, I am Dr Rima Lamba. I'm a feminist counselling psychologist with an interest in the unique experiences of women from a variety of ethnic and cultural backgrounds. I work closely with women who have struggled with self esteem & identity, relationship issues, difficulties in motherhood, life transitions, attachment and early trauma, and transgenerational trauma. I am particularly interested in the structural power differences that impact people, so I work closely on issues to do with patriarchy, race, culture and more. I also work with a team of therapists who can support clients, including adult families.

Finding a psychotherapist can be daunting, and very confusing, with a lot of terminology and names that might feel complicated and mystifying. My view is that therapy doesn't need to be so confusing and shrouded in secrecy and strange names. To put it simply, I offer you the chance to talk about whatever might be troubling you in total confidence at the same time, on the same day, in the same place, every week. That consistency, alongside the relationship we will develop, is all part of the healing process that therapy can provide.

Whether you are coming to therapy for the first time or seeking a new way of looking at things, your reason for coming to therapy is unique to you. I work collaboratively with you to discover meaning of current distress or patterns of behaviour which you may be finding difficult, through its association with past relationships and experiences. My goal is to help you feel like a more confident, authentic version of yourself who will be better equipped to deal with difficult feelings in the future.

Hello my name is Daniele Oppioli and I am fully qualified Clinical Psychotherapist and Counsellor. I offer counselling and psychotherapy in a non-judgmental, highly confidential, safe, accepting and affirmative environment where you will be fully supported in exploring your challenges at your own pace, getting to the sources of your concerns, doubts, anxieties and insecurities and allowing you to develop a reparative awareness of those patterns that were not available to you before. I work with LGBTQ, heterosexual and cysgender individuals of different age, gender identity, sexual orientation, origins, culture, profession etc.

As an experienced Clinical Psychotherapist, I provide counselling to adults and couples. I describe myself as an Integrative Clinical Psychotherapist; My experience and training have enabled me to develop expertise in various treatment models which enables me to draw on different approaches and techniques that suit the person you are and the issues that you are presented with. I am trained in Psychodynamic , Existential and Person-Centred therapies. My theoretical approach is predominantly informed by psychoanalytic/ psychodynamic therapy, which explores how the unconscious mind influences thoughts and behaviours.

I am a fully qualified psychodynamic psychotherapist with experience in clinical and private settings. I have completed extensive and rigorous training at WPF Therapy, one of the leading and most established training institutions in UK.

The fact that you're here suggests a curiosity and a need to find someone to listen and to help you think about your current situation. It takes courage to reach out and connect with someone unknown to talk about feelings and emotions. Therapy offers a safe space to do so where you are met with warmth and empathy. I offer a non-judgemental confidential space where we can work together to make things better by making sense of your experiences.

I am a qualified BACP registered counsellor and clinical supervisor with extensive experience working with people from all walks of life , ages and cultures. My work focusses on enabling people to find more confidence , joy and clarity and to help them create the life they want to live - whatever that looks like for them. We lived in a highly stressful time and it can be very easy to become anxious and depressed which without help can lead to feelings of helplessness and despair. Therapy offers a safe space to explore those difficult feelings, and often bringing those dark thoughts into the light can bring some relief.

I work face-to-face in Hammersmith but due to Covid-19 I am mainly helping people online by Skype, Zoom, WhatsApp and telephone. I focus much of my work with clients who have reached an impasse in their lives, feel stuck and like they are making the same relationship or work choices again and again. Perhaps they have a general dissatisfaction in life that they cannot seem to see a way past. I seek to change and understand why you keep repeating negative cycles of behaviour. I have experience working with clients; particularly in relationship difficulties, bereavement, jealousy, anger, anxiety and negative thoughts.

Therapy can help us to understand ourselves, identifying areas of struggle to find a way to change and live a more fulfilling life. Sometimes there is a traumatic incident in our past that we start remembering or we start experiencing general anxiety, depression or relationship issues. Often we have an idea about what we need to do but are unable to move on and feel stuck. I believe that talking about things is helpful. It is a way of dealing with our difficulties and a step towards a different path.

I am a Registered Psychotherapist and a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP). I work mainly within a Psychodynamic framework, although I have been trained in various therapeutic approaches including Systemic Psychotherapy and Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy. I draw on my range of experience and skills to tailor therapy to each individual I am working with. First and foremost, I consider therapy as a means of understanding ourselves and the world around us. I am here to help you go through the journey of knowing and understanding yourself in a non-judgmental and compassionate space.

I provide a safe, confidential and empathic space to explore what is going on for you, and help you cope in the here and now. I work in a way that promotes a balanced and neutral environment helping you to shut out the noise of the everyday world. Therapy can provide the opportunity to explore your decision making, your patterns of behaviour, how you relate to the world and help you to identify your own needs. I will support you through this journey. Together we will explore your thought process and how you got there, providing you with greater self awareness and meaning

I am an integrative Psychotherapist who uses various methods and theories from a range of modalities to tailor my style to the individual's needs. I feel that there is no ‘one size fits all’ approach to therapy and that each client must be worked with, in an individual manner. I am influenced by Person-Centred and Psychodynamic concepts in my work, as I like to get to the root cause of what is pertinent for the client at present, whilst always remembering that ‘the client is an expert in their own lives’.

Does it seem as though your life will never get better no matter how much you try to change it? Does constant worrying make it hard for you to complete daily tasks? Is your work performance suffering? Are your relationships with co-workers strained? Is your family in turmoil and you’re feeling powerless to change things? Anxiety, depression, conflict with others, workplace issues and life events can stop us from feeling good about ourselves and achieving our goals. If you’re feeling stuck, you’re not alone. I can help you navigate confusing thoughts, feelings and behaviours to gain a deeper understanding of yourself and your needs.

Hello! Thank you for reaching out. It’s a pleasure to tell you about myself. I am a qualified, registered counsellor with a passion to connect with people and harness their inner resources. My therapy practice is set in diverse community contexts. Building on my 25 years of experience as a communications professional, I am on a continual journey to engage with people to enable positive change. I have a level-4 diploma in therapeutic counselling, focused on person-centred, psychodynamic and integrative approaches.

You may be unsure why you're feeling worried, depressed or struggling at work or with relationships. Psychotherapy can help you to understand where your difficulties might be coming from leading to a less stress filled life. My first training was as a medical doctor. I have over ten years' experience working in mental and physical health in the NHS, forensic services, the charity sector and higher education and have trained in intercultural psychotherapy at The Tavistock NHS Trust. Fees are £90 per session, £70 for low income. Please get in touch about availability of low fee slots if that is unaffordable.

There are many reasons why you would chose to seek therapy. You maybe experiencing stress or anxiety, feeling overwhelmed or that you just can't cope at this moment in time. You maybe experiencing difficulties with intimate relationships or your family. Could you be suffering a bereavement, or loss, divorce or separation. There maybe issues you have been struggling for a long time, traumatic experiences, low self esteem, your identity or your sexuality. Or feeling like you 'don't quite fit in'. You could be stuck in certain relationship patterns that you want to change.

For students less than 25 years old, I offer the reduced fee of £50/session. How brave of you for showing up for yourself and having made the decision of taking the first steps towards a change! Welcome to my page. I’m Leela. In my counselling work today, I aim to support you to make more conscious decisions and choices about your life and embody the unique being you are. I celebrate the differences and my life has been enriched by interacting with different cultures, religions, race, beliefs, age, gender and sexual orientation, etc.
