Welcome You might be struggling with challenges such as anxiety, low mood, stress, grief, or relationship difficulties, or simply feel you don’t quite fit in and that no one really gets you, which can make the world feel harsh or isolating. Life can feel complex and demanding, and the pressures of work, family, and not being able to fully be your true self can be hard to navigate. Starting therapy can feel daunting, but simply taking the time to find a therapist who feels right for you is already a meaningful step towards happiness.

With so many counselling profiles to go through it can feel difficult to know which counsellor will be able to help you with your struggles. Will a male counsellor best serve me? Would there be benefits to seeing a female counsellor? What does a Psychodynamic Counsellor offer over a CBT Counsellor? If you are seeking counselling and struggling with these questions, please email me and I will be happy to offer a free 15-minute Zoom session to share some of my experience with you and help you find the right counsellor, whether that be myself or another professional.

Body Psychotherapy is a holistic form of psychotherapy which naturally incorporates the body within the psychotherapeutic process. Our life experiences are experienced in the mind, and also felt, sensed and held in our bodies. As in other forms of psychotherapy, we work together to understand and therapeutically work through the issues you face. Together, we explore your skills and talents that you can utilise and explore the ability and capacity to heal, develop self-awareness and open the way for new modes of being. The support, growth and transformation occur through the quality of the relationship we form together.

Sometimes we all need space to pause and reflect. You might be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply in need of a conversation that isn’t tangled in the expectations of those around you. Therapy offers a confidential, non-judgemental space to explore what’s going on and make sense of things in your own time. I offer one-to-one therapy online or in person (Bushey, Hertfordshire), and work with a wide range of concerns — including overcoming shame and finding the authentic you, finding meaning and purpose in life, confronting anxiety and navigating relationship challenges.

I work with adults who are often functioning well on the surface but struggling internally. Many experience anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, or feel stuck during periods of transition or loss. Others come wanting to understand how past experiences continue to shape how they think, feel, and relate. My clients are typically seeking clarity, emotional steadiness, and a stronger sense of connection - both to themselves and to others - rather than quick fixes or labels. Alongside my broader work, I support clients exploring stress, relationships, identity, responsibility, and emotional expression.

Therapy with me provides you the space to hear your own voice more clearly. ​ I work with couples / individuals who are struggling to find connection, understanding, or peace in their life. Whether facing conflict, distance, betrayal, life transitions, or a sense of being “stuck,” I offer a therapeutic space to slow down and explore what lies beneath the surface. My work is grounded in the belief that emotional distress often has deep roots in early relationships, and that healing involves making sense of the patterns we carry—sometimes unknowingly into our adult lives.

Starting therapy can feel daunting, especially with so many therapists out there! I understand because I was in the exact same position. Having experienced difficult and challenging life events that negatively affected my mental health, a past version of ‘me’ wanted someone who would truly listen and take time to hear my story. My lived experiences shape my practice today as I prioritise being a genuine human first, centring compassion and adaptability as a psychologist. I hope to co-create a space that enables people to share their narratives while feeling heard, not judged, and leave therapy empowered to pursue their goals.

The World today makes increasing demands on the individual and at times it almost seems to be shouting at us. Anxiety levels are at record highs. More than ever people need to be true to their own unique path in life and articulate their own meaning. Not having this can lead to unhappiness and depression. My approach is spiritual rather than religious, but I believe we have to know ourselves on a deeper level to live to our full potential. This involves understanding our childhoods, being in touch with our dreams and above all being able to live fully in the present

Hello there and welcome to my profile. Clients are always welcome to bring any issue to therapy, no matter how big or small they may feel it is and would like support with their issue. They have a desire for change. They've come to therapy because they would like to explore, understand themselves better, their issue and the emotions surrounding it. To process what is or has happened. To make a real lasting impact. I offer a competitive rate because I truly believe that therapy should be as accessible as possible.

I am a psychodynamic psychotherapist working with individuals, couples, groups and as a supervisor. I see psychotherapy as valuable to people from all walks of life and as a conversation which is led by the client, working towards deepening self-awareness and the capacity to live authentically. I have substantial experience with people from all backgrounds, including people from diverse ethnicities, sexualities, genders. I have extensive experience with people who have led quite chaotic lives; but equally, people whose lives appear relatively simple are often, at a private level, in need of the deep attention psychotherapy offers.

I’m Pritesh, a CBT and EMDR therapist helping high-performing people break free from emotional overload, trauma, and silent burnout. I work with professionals who seem “fine” on the outside… but feel quietly overwhelmed, disconnected, or emotionally flat on the inside. I’m not the kind of therapist who just nods and asks, “And how does that make you feel?” Clients often tell me, “You actually get it.” That’s because I believe therapy shouldn’t feel clinical or cold, it should feel like a grounded conversation that actually helps you move forward.

You’ve done the thinking. You understand your patterns. And yet—nothing really changes. You find yourself in the same loops: in relationships, in your reactions, in your thinking. I work with adults, couples, and young people who feel stuck in patterns that don’t shift. My approach is active, relational, and focused on real change—not just talking.

We all have the capacity for growth, given the right conditions. Part of what therapy can be is the creation of a space where those conditions are met. During our 50 minute sessions, we will work toward a common goal. My role is to try to understand your lived experiences, in a confidential, non-discriminatory environment. Not to judge you. But most importantly therapy is about what you want to use the time and space for. People think of counselling as a last resort. We often keep our problems to ourselves, we compound all that feeling and pain and it emerges in our day to day lives in different ways, depression, stress, anxiety.

FAQ - Therapist Gender
As a man, why might I want to see a male therapist?
There are many reasons a man might wish to work with a male therapist, including a degree of shared identity, which may help client and therapist connect to each other and allow for a more free-flowing discussion of issues that can be deeply personal. Some men may feel more comfortable talking to a male therapist about relationship concerns, the pressures they feel around the roles society and family place on men, career or job challenges, self-esteem, or anger problems. For some men who have not had a male role models in their lives, a good male therapist may be especially helpful.

How can I find out about a therapist’s experience treating men?
Individuals looking for treatment should feel comfortable directly asking a therapist about their history treating men overall and the issues that arise in therapy with men. A good therapist will be happy to discuss such matters as well as their educational background, approach to treatment, and how they think they can aid a prospective client.

Can clients benefit from having a therapist of the same gender?
Therapy is not gender-specific, but some men as well as women feel more comfortable opening up about their experiences and history with therapists of a specific gender. An individual may feel that they have to explain less background information and be on the same page more quickly, particularly when discussing gender-specific challenges. That said, a good clinician can transcend most if not all gender concerns. Ultimately, the most important factor in therapy is the connection and trust the client is able to build with the practitioner.

Would a male therapist have specific training in treating men?
Generally, no. There are no certifications for treating men specifically, but there are continuing education classes that therapists may take that focus on treating men as a group. There are many therapists who focus on men and male issues in their treatment and therefore have experience and expertise in this domain.
