Counselling in SE17

I offer therapy, including EMDR, for a range of issues commonly experienced as challenging ; such as anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, bereavement / loss, difficulties experienced in life crisis and transitions (relationships, parenthood, midlife), cultural issues, low self esteem, and identity issues (sexuality, role/job, cultural). I have a special interest in the experience of uprooted childhoods - family break up or displacement and its effect on identity and the ability to feel trust. I also offer Perinatal support sessions to women in pregnancy and in the weeks following birth.

I provide an open, warm and confidential space which enables clients to explore issues, which may have been difficult to deal with alone. I view therapy as an individual process and a journey of self discovery that create an opportunity to become aware of inner conflicts and unhelpful patterns of behaviour. I recognise that there is not one approach to therapy that will suit everyone. Hence, I incorporate integrative approach that means I can adapt therapy to each client and their individual needs. I can offer help and have worked with people struggling with a range of conditions including depression, anxiety or adjustment.

Scrolling to find the right therapist? It's overwhelming, but my job is to make the process easier. I am a licensed Psychotherapist (MSc) who works with adults (18+) and specializes in relationships, anxiety, depression, trauma, coping with grief and loss, and eating disorders. Are you the kind of person who uses a smile to distract others from your pain? Then you're in the right place. I am here to facilitate you in creating your own bubble and safe space. I am curious to understand more about your own inner world since it looks so different for each of us.

I am a psychodynamic Psychotherapist, qualifying at one of London's leading clinical and academic institutions, WPF Therapy. I also hold a voluntary position at an NHS Counselling and Psychotherapy service at a category B prison. My experience tells me through self-reflection and a solid understanding of our thoughts, feelings and intentions, we can all improve our quality of wellbeing. Through decades of working 1-2-1 with people, I understand that therapy provides a safe and supportive space that can help you grow as a person.

We welcome new clients who are seeking low-fee counselling either face-to-face in Elephant and Castle, or online throughout the UK. Please visit www.thegoodmentalhealthcompany.com to find out more, and to book an assessment.

I am an accredited integrative psychotherapist (MBACP) with a special focus on trauma and dissociation. I work relationally, which means that, through the therapeutic relationship, you are encouraged to understand how early experiences and past relationships impact on your present difficulties. In order to access emotions and past traumatic experiences trapped in the body I sometimes use a more mindful and somatic approach in addition to traditional talking therapies. Of special interest to me is how unresolved and traumatic experiences can be healed and transformed by a greater integration of the mind and body.

If you are worrying more than usual, having nightmares or flashbacks to a traumatic event, suffering from disturbed sleep or are more feeling irritable and hyper-vigilant than usual, you may be suffering from a reaction to trauma. If this strikes a cord, visit the website for more information or get in touch by email or phone. I have spent the last twenty years helping clients resolve trauma and anxiety problems and intend to spend the next twenty doing the same. I may be able to help you in London, Cheltenham or worldwide online.

Troubling thoughts, feelings, emotions, & repetitive behaviors can be safely explored & understood with the help of an experienced therapist. I work with individuals, couples and run groups. I help people who are experiencing a broad range of issues such as low mood, anxiety, low self esteem, anger, loneliness, rejection, infidelity, dependency, stuckness, eating disorders, abusive relationships, & seeking meaning in life. I use the psychodynamic model & CBT when necessary. Apart from being a therapist, I am a Lecturer at Birkbeck Uni on the MSc in Psychodynamic Psychotherapy course.

I understand that deciding to seek therapy can be a daunting prospect. Yet therapy can also be an immensely rewarding and beneficial experience to help you understand your difficulties and facilitate change. Like many, you may not be certain what sort of support you need. If you are considering counselling, please do not hesitate to contact me to discuss your concerns. I have many years of experience of providing counselling and psychotherapy in different organisational settings. These include working within an NHS psychotherapy department, a charity settings, and university student counselling service.

You may experience anxiety, anger, depression, relationship and sexuality difficulties, addictive behavior. Talking therapy helps to understand our emotions so that we can identify and manage negative feelings or unwanted habits. When working together, client and therapist explore present and past events to identify the relation between the present emotions and the early life experiences. By understanding how childhood experiences affect our emotions and behavior as adults, it is possible to understand the root of the problem.

My name is Vlad, I am a private psychotherapist and psychoanalyst of the Jungian tradition. My professional formation is tightly linked with Ukraine, Russia, and England, where I obtained different components of my psychoanalytic training. For over 10 years I studied psychotherapeutic work with adults and children, worked in a psychosocial rehabilitation centre, and ran a private psychoanalytic practice. I currently live and work in London's Southbank area, where I provide analytical psychotherapy to adults.

You might feel stuck in patterns that you can't seem to break free of, or have difficulty connecting with other people, or feeling true intimacy. Or you might have been putting on a 'mask' to go out to work and function in the world, but underneath are living with pain in various forms: depression, anxiety, grief or anger. If you feel motivated to make changes but don't know where to start, then psychotherapy might be right for you. With time, as you start to feel safe enough to talk in depth about the things that have been troubling you, therapy can become a very real relationship of trust and openness.

Clicking through profiles can feel bewildering. However, finding a relationship where you feel trusting enough to speak freely, can be transformative. To experience yourself deep in conversation, expressing thoughts you might otherwise avoid disclosing and reflecting on feelings that may previously, have felt too painful to confront. I am an accomplished clinician working with clients in crisis or seeking greater understanding and change. I am impartial, attentive, curious and open. My warm & pragmatic approach will support us through the first few meetings, as we begin to consider the intricacies and complexities of your life.

Therapy provides a chance to learn, grow and thrive. You may wish to discover ways to manage life's challenges, explore patterns in your relationships that don’t serve you well, or consider how you might find connection or healing within the chaos of life. Bringing my dual training in Clinical Psychology and Systemic Family Therapy and over twenty-years experience working in mental health care and research, I will invite you to think with me about journeying beyond any challenges or barriers you've faced. We will develop new understandings of your situation so you can feel confident in your personal strengths and resources.

I am a registered & chartered Principal Psychologist, EMDR Europe Accredited Practitioner and a Schema Therapist with over 13 years of experience. You might feel that difficult past experiences are continuing to impact the quality of your relationships & affecting your wellbeing. You may be stuck in patterns of behaviours that leave you feeling helpless, anxious or depressed. Despite our best efforts to manage, we may end up coping in ways that perpetuate or worsen our difficulties. I would like to offer you a safe, non-judgemental therapeutic space where we can explore & overcome these difficulties together.

I understand when you feel alone and isolated with no one to turn to. At times it feels difficult to share your worries with those closest to you for a variety of reasons, including fear of judgement and feeling that you might let someone down. I will work with you to unpack your concerns and worries with the aim of you finding an way through some of those troubles. My aim is to also ensure that you feel safe and your problems are held in confidence and that you experience being supported throughout the therapeutic journey.

The world can be frustrating when you get tangled up in unhealthy thinking patterns. You can feel lost, or overwhelmed, with moments of real darkness. That is where I can help. If you lose control of your anger or your anxiety holds you back, we can unpack what makes you tick. If you hide your emotions in harmful behaviour, we can uncover them. What I enjoy most is helping people to build healthy relationships with themselves and others. I used to this when working with the Prince's Trust and Mind, the leading UK mental health agency. This gave me insight into those dealing with addiction, anxiety and depression.
