Maria Khodurskaya
Psychotherapist, BPC
I offer psychotherapy grounded in psychodynamic and Jungian approaches and help clients explore unconscious patterns, navigate identity and relationship issues, and move through life transitions with greater self-understanding. I support individuals facing anxiety, trauma, creative blocks, and cultural adaptation, particularly those going through midlife change or living between cultures. I also integrate EMDR into my practice for healing from traumas or PTSD. Sessions provide a consistent, reflective space — in English or Russian — where clients can safely explore emotional challenges and build psychological resilience.

Psychotherapist, MUKCP
I am an experienced, qualified and approachable psychotherapist working with individual adults. Feelings of depression, anxiety or a lack of direction or meaning in life need to be understood in a broad context. By looking at our whole life we can uncover who we really are and where we wish to go. I offer a safe space where troublesome, dark and difficult feelings can be examined and explored - by bringing them into the light we open up the possibility of facing and understanding them.

Psychologist, MSc, GMBPsS
Many people come to therapy during times of transition, uncertainty, or emotional strain. They may be facing anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, loss, or the complex process of adapting to life in a new environment. Often they feel caught in repeating patterns or disconnected from their own needs and emotions. Together we explore these experiences with care and curiosity, helping clients develop deeper self-understanding, restore emotional balance, and move forward with greater clarity, resilience, and confidence.

Why counselling? Sometimes life throws some pretty awful things at us and we should not have to cope on our own. Thankfully these days we don’t have to. This is where counselling comes in. It is a safe place which is yours to talk in confidence about what ever you want. Sometimes all we need is to be heard and to have someone who is non-judgemental, who listens, is empathetic and kind. With Couples Counselling I offer quick, effective, couples counselling programme. I understand that couples usually have time restraints and results have to be quick. So book a FREE 15 minute on line call to find out more.

As parents when our children are struggling we just want to help but often don’t know how. What they are facing can feel overwhelming but there is hope. Counselling provides children and young people with a safe space where they can explore, work things out, heal and move on from difficulties that they experience. Working with someone who is not a family member or friend, but who is supportive, non-judgmental and accepting, who helps us make sense of what we are going through and move forward, can be really beneficial. I aim to help young people accept and value themselves, raise their resilience, gain coping skills and thrive.

Domestic Abuse Counsellors
What are the most effective ways to recover from domestic abuse?
Leaving an abusive relationship requires tremendous courage, so survivors in treatment should recognise that they have already completed the most important step. Still, the trauma of physical or emotional abuse can be difficult to process and overcome. Therapy can help survivors process trauma, grief, and difficult emotions, treat relevant mental health symptoms, and create a new framework for boundaries and relationships in the future. For some, support groups can also be an invaluable outlet for healing.

When should an individual seek help for domestic abuse?
Victims of intimate partner violence should seek help immediately. It can take substantial time, planning, energy, and courage to leave an abusive relationship, but starting the process—by seeking therapy, calling the domestic violence hotline, or simply confiding in a loved one—will help them get there. Those who have left abusive relationships but haven’t sought treatment can also greatly benefit from therapy to process and heal from the experience.

What are the consequences of staying in an abusive relationship?
Remaining in an abusive relationship has serious repercussions. In addition to the ongoing threat of physical danger and emotional abuse, research shows that intimate partner violence is associated with a range of mental health disorders including depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, and substance abuse. Therefore it’s important for individuals in an abusive relationship to seek help as soon as possible.

How can you get domestic abuse treatment for someone else?
It can be very complicated to identify and leave an abusive relationship; barriers include the threat of violence, financial instability, and family pressures. Those concerned about a loved one in an abusive relationship should talk to them about the situation, provide them with resources such as the domestic violence hotline, and introduce the idea of seeing a therapist due to their concern for the person’s safety and well-being.
