Counselling in SW19
I’m Negin, an integrative psychotherapist offering a calm and reflective space for exploration and growth. Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to make sense of their inner experience. You might be carrying a heaviness, anxiety, numbness, or a sense of being disconnected from yourself or others. Perhaps you’ve learned to hold everything together while something inside longs for understanding and relief. Therapy can provide a space to explore these feelings, understand recurring patterns, and get a better sense of what you’re feeling and what you might need.

I am a Clinical supervisor with a social service background and have been working with families for over 20 years. I realise that it can often be difficult for children to understand or express their emotions. This can lead to overwhelming, confusing, or stuck feelings, perhaps resulting in low esteem and struggles with relationships with others, and themselves. I offer a safe and supportive environment where children can express their emotional and relational difficulties by using their natural language of communication, PLAY, with the facilitation of various play and creative materials in the playroom.

I work with people experiencing grief, endings, and change. Losing someone you love or the end of a relationship can feel unbearable, as if life will never be the same. You may feel lost, overwhelmed, or stuck in sadness. My role is to provide a safe, compassionate space where your feelings can be expressed and understood. Grief doesn’t follow rules or timelines, but as emotions are processed, many people find the weight gradually eases and they begin to reconnect with life in new ways.

Life can be full of uncanny sensations or unpleasant feelings. These feelings sometimes become unbearable and overwhelming, making each day a challenge. There are many different potential causes for our distress. Sometimes they can stem from confusion over choices we are forced to make, or from the questions that arise when we think about who we are, or what we want. Finding a safe, welcoming space to address a painful or peculiar experience in life can be challenging. When we ask for help, we have already made a choice to pursue a change.

You might be feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck in patterns that are affecting your work, relationships, or day-to-day life. Perhaps the pressures of work and life have left you feeling burnt out, or relationships feel difficult and draining. Starting therapy can feel like a big step, especially if you’re used to coping on your own. I offer a calm, supportive space where you can speak openly and without judgement. Together we can explore what’s going on beneath the surface, understand patterns that may be holding you back and develop more helpful ways of coping and relating to yourself and others.

Clients often come feeling caught between different expectations, cultures or parts of themselves. Outwardly they may be coping but inwardly feel unsettled, disconnected or unsure where they belong. This can follow life changes such as grief, migration, relationship endings or transitions that shift identity.
I also work with grief and loss which may arise from bereavement, relationship endings, migration or the loss of a future that was hoped for. Grief can feel intense and overwhelming or it may appear more subtly.

Anxiety and Depression can creep up on us at any time, sometimes you don't stop to notice the signs and triggers until you feel at a crisis point and life feels heavy, grey and without any positivity or colour. Counselling can offer a space and someone to listen and help you manage the effects of depression and find out more about the root of anxiety and how to notice triggers.

Many of the people I work with seek therapy because they’re feeling anxious, emotionally drained, or stuck in patterns they can’t seem to shift, even while appearing to cope well on the surface. They’re often thoughtful, capable adults navigating burnout, perfectionism, low self-confidence, or relationship difficulties.
Some come to therapy after a recent diagnosis such as ADHD, while others are simply recognising long-standing struggles with anxiety or emotional regulation. These are just a few of the issues I work with, though many clients experience a mix of challenges. We will focus on what feels meaningful for you to address.

Each person is unique and distinctive and therefore one approach may not fit them all. I place the client-therapist relationship at the heart of an effective therapeutic process providing an honest and non-judgmental stance where your feelings can be expressed and contained in a safe and confidential setting. You might want to make sense of the past and explore how it can sometimes be reconstructed in the present or you might seek to get back in touch with your real self through acceptance and a better mind-body connection.

Updated June 26. Everyone needs support at times, and a willingness to reveal vulnerability and undertake self-examination takes immense courage. Seeking therapy is a sign of humility and strength.
Formerly a diplomat, it was the profound learning I experienced in therapy which led to my desire to use my skills and lived experience to help others. Through my own change and in-depth psychotherapy training - as well as my previous work in an NHS crisis team and currently for Mind - I understand causes of human emotional distress, why unhelpful and unfulfilling patterns form, and how to help you heal and achieve lasting change.

Hello and welcome. You may be struggling with loss, major life changes, or noticing patterns in how you think and feel that leave you feeling stuck. Even if you can’t fully explain it, carrying this may have become too much.

I specialise in confidence and self-esteem, including social anxiety and body image difficulties. I see how fear of judgement can shape your existence, making ordinary situations feel overwhelming. Often intensified by a self-critical voice, constantly evaluating yourself, leaving you feeling not good enough. Perhaps you're feeling stuck; avoiding living fully, or even notice self-sabotage. Comparison takes over. We will work together to break these patterns and help you move forward with greater confidence.

You may feel overwhelmed, anxious or stuck in patterns that are difficult to change. Perhaps relationships feel complicated, emotions intense, or life transitions have left you uncertain about your direction. You may be looking for a space to slow down, understand yourself more deeply and find a way forward. I offer a thoughtful, supportive environment where we can explore what is happening in your life, develop greater awareness and work towards meaningful and lasting change.

Life can feel overwhelming if you are affected by anxiety, trauma, being highly sensitive or experience relationships challenges - with yourself or others.

If this resonates with you, together we can explore, understand, and manage your emotions in healthier ways, transform unhelpful patterns, build self-confidence, feel more in control, and enjoy richer, more loving relationships with yourself and others. Reach out to begin your journey

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
Counsellors and Psychotherapists listed in the directory are members of the main professional associations, mainly the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and the UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP). Most Psychologists in the directory are accredited members of the British Psychological Society (BPS) and/or are registered in the Health and Care Professions Council (HPCP).
Providers whose professional membership or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Given that professional memberships are not a statutory requirement for psychotherapists and counsellors in the UK, certain qualified professionals or organisations may choose not to maintain such memberships despite possessing the necessary qualifications. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counsellor?
Counsellors, psychotherapists and psychologists can all provide counselling or talking therapy and have credentials and experience that enable them to do so in the UK. Psychologists have earned a degree in psychology and many are members of the British Psychological Society (BPS) and have completed a postgraduate qualification in a specialism. Counsellors and Psychotherapists are not required to have a psychology degree, but to belong to a professional organisation such as the BACP or UKCP, they are required to have completed a training course as well as clinical and supervision hours.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
How much does therapy cost?
The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, a therapy session in the UK could be between £30 - £60 when seeing a counsellor and £60 - £150 and up when seeing a clinical psychologist. If you have private insurance, your plan may cover some if not all of your sessions. You should contact your insurance provider to determine if they provide coverage for therapy sessions and to determine what, if any, requirements they might have in order for your sessions to be covered, such as a referral from your GP or medical specialist.
What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?
Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.
If you are struggling to access therapy due to budget constraints, you could also consider public funded mental health services. The NHS Talking therapies programme offers free of charge counselling for common mental health problems like anxiety and depression. The service is available to anyone registered with a GP, though you do not necessarily need to be referred by your GP and can refer yourself directly to a Talking therapies service. The service will provide different solutions, including group and individual therapy, for a limited number of sessions which are generally up to six.

Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your postcode.
Are therapy sessions confidential?
Therapists who are part of a professional organisation such as the BACP, the UKCP, or BPS are bound by an ethical framework that requires them to uphold a confidentiality agreement. Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship and only under specific circumstances, such as when there has been participation in a criminal act or act of terror, or if there is potential or known harm to the client or others, will a therapist be obligated to break the agreement. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed during the initial consultation.
