I am a qualified integratively trained Counsellor. I am experienced in dealing with adults, young people and teens on issues such as anxiety, depression, OCD, Self-harming, suicidal ideations, spirituality, family relationship difficulties, peer problems at school, Trauma related to sexual assaults/abuse, romantic relationship problems, self-esteem. I work in private practice with adults and teens. I have also worked successfully with teenagers and young people in a school setting on issues such as above and have helped them achieve desired outcomes as I have been able to successfully gain their trust.

As a family and couples psychotherapist I believe that relationships, both past, present and future, are important resources for healing psychological difficulties and improving emotional health. I work with both individuals, couples and families to help people think through their connections and help to improve their lives. Using a range of systemic approaches, including attachment, narrative and solution focused ideas, I aim to offer clients a different way of looking at their problems, and support them to create new ways of communicating and create meaning within their relationships.

I can imagine, given that you are here, there may be something in your life that is causing you discomfort. Welcome, and well done for taking the first step towards getting some support. Some people seek out therapy because they have felt depressed, anxious or angry for a long time; others may want help for relationship difficulties, self-destructive habits or a chronic illness that is interfering with their emotional or physical well-being. Sometimes, unexpected changes or circumstances also bring people into therapy - for example, going through a divorce, feeling overwhelmed by a new job, or grieving the loss of a family member.

My clients are typically committed to their own personal development. They often come looking for relief from a particular problem in their lives. Typically, they become curious about and want to disentangle the collective and family issues from who they are and to explore new patterns of being in the world through which they can be more of themselves. I am interested in engaging with diversity issues that both enrich and trouble us. I have been active for many years in community building between communities, organisations and institutions of learning.

Most of us experience emotional difficulties at some point in our lives. We may turn to friends and family for help and support, but sometimes this is not possible, or not enough. At this point, therapy can help. A supportive relationship, with a therapist you can trust not to judge or criticise you, can give you the safety and space to share your feelings and to think about what is troubling you. This can lead to greater understanding and the possibility of lasting change and growth. From my practice in Finchley Road, I offer a private and confidential space to help you to explore and come to terms what is on your mind.

I will listen to the experiences you bring of early life, behaviours, feelings, and the emotions that impact your present actions with understanding and acceptance. Yet I firmly believe that we are not irrevocably tethered to our past. I work with the interconnectedness of mind, body, and relationships, facilitating reflection and offering challenge and liberation.

I am an integrative psychotherapist, counsellor and drama therapist. I work with adolescents and adults, and have done so for over 15 years. This ranges from schools, health care settings, ranging from Norwood Children & Family Centres, Shaftsbury High School (special needs) and within the NHS at The Kingswood Centre. In addition, during the last 5 years,​ I have developed my private practice in which I have worked with clients with a wide variety of difficulties including anxiety, depression, low self– confidence, low self–esteem, loss and bereavement, relationship difficulties, sexuality and self– harm.

Art Therapy is a readily accessible, gentle and effective form of therapy. It is suitable for individuals of any age who are experiencing a wide range of emotional and wellbeing challenges.

Seeking help is brave, finding the right therapist essential. So, let me tell you about myself. I am passionate about helping families and individuals navigate a range of complexities/dilemmas/relationships. You might be feeling hopeless or too cautious around others. Occasionally we all experience these feelings, but gradually these wear us down. I specialise in helping people affected by emotional/relationship difficulties to change and reconnect. These include: improving relationships, communication; anxiety/depression; trauma; parenting issues; post-adoption; separation/divorce; loss/grief; education/work issues and other issues

We all face emotional difficulties at some point that stop us from enjoying life as much as we would like. Talking to friends and family can be helpful, but sometimes this isn't possible or doesn't feel enough. Whether you're finding things challenging, or you have a sense that you could be more connected with yourself and others in your life, counselling can offer a unique opportunity to explore whatever is troubling you, and can help by providing you with support and understanding.

Counselling could be the first steps which allows you to explore your thoughts, feelings and your behavior I offer a safe and supportive space to adults and young people where you can explore any worries or difficulties in the strictest confidence.

Hello, my name is Safoora Sepehri, I have a PhD in psychology from Shahid Beheshti University ( National University), and also a MA degree in psychoanalytic studies from Birkbeck University, London.

Are you or your loved ones struggling with difficulties like depression, anxiety or trauma? Do you have difficulties getting to or staying asleep? Tricky relationships or situations at work or at home can cause stress and anxiety. For your children, the difficulties could be about school and university. I enjoy working with adults and young people who are finding life a little tricky. My 30 year career in the classroom means I understand adolescents and their difficulties. My aim is to help you identify the areas that are difficult and then to find strategies and solutions to overcome these.

My goal is to support my clients in a holistic way which takes all areas of their life into consideration when formulating a plan. I fit what i know into supporting the client to reach their goal as opposed to making the client fit into a theory. I have over 20 years of experience working with women, families, relationship issues, drug addiction, drug addiction, domestic abuse and depression.

I offer a warm, non judgemental space which allows you to examine issues around health and stress, relationships, anxiety, workplace issues, self confidence, trauma and stuck behavioural patterns. I work consistently with clients on issues around addictive behaviours and work with individuals and groups in recovery from alcohol and drug abuse. No problem is ever too small and it is often the ones you feel embarrassed to bring that are key to unlocking the problem.

I am a qualified and experienced psychotherapist and work with individuals of all ages, helping them across a number of challenges including anxiety, depression, divorce, fertility, loss, relationships, sexuality, stress, workplace and more. However, I am open to exploring any challenges you'd like to explore together. I offer both short and longer term therapy and since the pandemic, I currently work online. I am open and inclusive and welcome individuals of all backgrounds, genders, sexuality and ethnicity. I am LGBTQ+ aware.

Looking to learn more about yourself? Would you like to address a particular mood or thoughts that are consuming your mind? Our unconscious mind can influence us more than we think... "what you resist persists" If you are tired of feeling stuck, going around in circles trying to figure out how to make the “right” choices for yourself, feel more balanced and mindful, then is time to take actions. In our sessions we would work together exploring meaning beyond current and past situations to support awareness and inner freedom so you can achieve your goals and choose to become who you want to be .
