Counselling in London

I am an experienced clinical psychologist offering psychodynamic therapy and psychoanalysis in English and Persian. I work with adults and children I am open to all kinds of backgrounds, beliefs and life choices. I specialised in the treatment of a range of clinical problems, including depression, anxiety, trauma, psychosomatic health, personality difficulties and relationship issues.

People can find themselves in challenging situations, giving way to certain feelings and emotions. The prospect that something may have changed, or something stopped working can be difficult. The sense of feeling stuck, not knowing what to do be can unsettling. Perhaps this has been going on for some time causing effort and exhaustion. This is where therapy can help. I offer genuine warmth, understanding and togetherness whether your first time or returning to therapy. We can look at where you are now and how you got there. How it effects and affects you and your life.

I have experience working with clients in areas such as stress, anxiety, low self esteem, relationship issues (self or others), sexual identity, sexuality, masculine embodiment, depression. I feel coming to therapy can be daunting as clients often do not know what to expect. I like to talk this through with clients and make sure that they feel safe and secure, and we can build a therapeutic relationship together. I provide a safe, confidential, and non-judgemental space in which the you can explore your thoughts and feelings, allowing you to understand more about yourself and your relationships with others at your own pace.

Hello, I have many years of specialist training and experience of helping adults and young people who have experienced abuse and trauma in their past which continues to affect many areas of their life even now in the present moment. I work flexibly both online via Zoom and face to face. People who have worked with me have said that I have been kind, calm, supportive, helpful and non-judgemental in our work together. I understand how difficult it can be to speak about the past and to be vulnerable. I can begin to help you to feel safe enough to work through difficult feelings, emotions and thoughts from our very first session.

Working with a counsellor can help you see things in a new perspective and give support through difficult times. I have worked with people of all ages and backgrounds and can help you with a variety of concerns. My clients tell me that I am warm, insightful and understanding. My passion has always been to work with people, supporting personal growth and helping people develop happier and more meaningful lives, providing a safe environment where they can find inner strength and resilience.

I am a qualified psychodynamic counsellor accredited with the BACP (British Council of counsellors and psychotherapists). I have many years of experience in working with adults. I know from my own experience that counselling provides a space to open up and get to know yourself a bit more closely and that way to live more fully and happily. If you are faced with a difficult situation or want to address something that you have been carrying for a long time, I can offer you a safe space to explore them.

My name is Ruth and I’m a registered Clinical Psychologist. I recognise there are many reasons why you may be seeking therapy and I offer tailored support working with a range of difficulties such as trauma, anxiety, low mood, and low self-esteem to name a few. I also value opportunities to help people identify and reconnect with the values, skills, and strengths they already hold.

The three issues I am most proficient in treating are anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties. (I count myself in the number of people I have helped out of those dark places.)

Experienced and friendly psychologist and psychotherapist offering relaxed and confidential psychotherapy/counselling to adults. I work with a range of issues, including anxiety, generalised anxiety disorder, depression, bereavement and loss, relationship difficulties (past and present), life transitions, low self-esteem, and trauma. My work incorporates thinking and techniques from psychodynamic theory, Compassion Focussed Therapy (CFT), Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Densensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).

I offer a compassionate, safe and confidential environment that supports the exploration and expression of feelings, thoughts, beliefs and circumstances that may be having an adverse effect on emotional well-being and quality of life. Sometimes we just need a space to be still and reflect, a space where we feel accepted, understood and supported in gaining a deeper awareness into why we behave the way we do, or that can offer us an alternative perspective on challenging life situations. My aim is to support you in making sense of your life and working with you in moving to where you would like to be.

You might be going through tough times; struggling with past trauma, feeling anxious, moody, rejected and depressed; or having difficulty maintaining romantic or family relationships and friendships. Maybe you're not sure what is real or unreal anymore. Perhaps, you are not sure what you believe, or you feel you are struggling with your faith in God. I want to help you. We'll work together using not only evidenced based practices, but also biblical principles to help you sort things out. Let's blend psychological tools with life coaching, and the power of faith to help you bounce back, embrace who you are, and walk in your purpose.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by the pressures of life, lost, lacking in confidence, anxious, confused or simply stuck and unsure of what to do? Maybe you're currently experiencing feelings you can’t name, but which have a profound effect on the quality of your life. Do you struggle in your relationships and notice a 'groundhog day' type of effect? Well, it's possible that your usual way of dealing with things just isn’t working for you anymore, and you are ready for change. This is where therapy offers a unique opportunity in helping you to overcome these obstacles whilst enabling you to explore difficult feelings in a safe space.

Personal crisis and suffering provide opportunities for self-awareness and for supporting you in discovering patterns of behaviour and their underlying causes. Regardless of the intensity of your dilemma or the depth of your distress, I help you to stand back and explore your inner world. Gaining greater insight, discovering new perspectives, finding acceptance and emotional resolution from your suffering. I specialise in anxiety, abuse, trauma and addiction, areas that are so often interlinked. If you would just like to ask a question in confidence or make an arrangement to meet in person or online, please make contact.

You may be feeling anxious, depressed, angry, confused, struggling in relationships or with bereavement, or simply be curious about yourself.

I am committed to maintaining an unwavering sense of respect, empathy, and non-judgment, ensuring that you feel heard and understood.

Queer-, trans- and polyamory-affirming. At different points in our lives, we struggle with the feeling that our life has lost its sense of purpose or direction. This experience of aimlessness may lead to feelings of depression, anxiety or confusion. Sometimes this lack of meaning arises after a sudden change in our circumstances such as the loss of a job, the end of a relationship, or a bereavement. At other times, we may feel that over time our lives have drifted further and further away from what we’d hoped for ourselves. At times like these, speaking with a psychotherapist can help.
