A warm welcome, if you're looking here then it might mean you're ready to start talking to someone about the difficulties you're experiencing. This is a big first step, and it can be a daunting to know who to speak to. I have over ten years experience working in NHS mental health services - I don't believe that people fit into neat diagnoses but that we all sit on a spectrum somewhere between good mental health to distress and this changes depending on what stress is placed on us. I am interested in how you have got to this point and focus on what we can do together to help you move forward and make powerful positive change.

Hello, and a warm welcome. I am Marta, a fully qualified and UKCP registered psychotherapist. Majority of people I work with come to improve their lives by addressing issues such as low mood, anxiety, anger, loss, shame, self-criticism, relationship problems, low confidence, and trauma-related difficulties. I work online and in-person, offering both open-ended and short-term sessions. My special interest is in post-traumatic growth, developing confidence, and finding a new meaning after loss (e.g. retirement, redundancy, divorce, infertility, bereavement, voluntary and involuntary relocation, etc.).

Hello everyone, welcome to my practice! I am a qualified psychologist and registered member of British Psychological Society who works with adults and adolescents. I offer a calm, thoughtful, and non-judgemental space in which we address the negative thought patterns and emotions. By using cognitive- behavioural therapy techniques, you can begin learning how to change your behaviours and we can develop new coping strategies.

Zrinka Ivkovic
Counsellor, MA
I have experience counselling people encountering temporary stressors or life-long behavioural and emotional challenges and/or those with mental health diagnoses. Relationship difficulties, life transitions, depression/low mood, trauma, and anxiety are just a few of the themes with which I have supported clients. I also have experience working with complex cases, including those with dual-diagnoses. The work that I do rests on a threshold of respect, compassion, and non-judgement. It is also collaborative: I offer an educated and human perspective to help bring heightened awareness to challenges, creating an opportunity for change.

Welcome, I'm Dr Charmaine Elliott. I practice therapy that empowers women of all ages, cultures and abilities in the pursuit of a better future. If you're a woman looking for support with low mood (depression), low self-esteem, anxiety, trauma, grief or relationship concerns, you're in the right place. Your problems can be overcome, your opportunities widened and your value better recognised. Therapy with me is criticism-free; containing and caring all the way. You can just be yourself. I believe there's nothing 'wrong' with you, everyone has challenges in life, but you're now in the right place to turn things around for the better.

I am particularly interested in the areas of confidence building and self esteem for young people in their early twenties and thirties; young people who have big goals but sometimes get stuck because of issues from the past, perhaps bullying or family issues. I also work with clients suffering from PTSD who wish to be free of the debilitating symptoms that this can cause for themselves and their families.

We understand that life can be challenging sometimes. With its setbacks, traumas, failings and tragedies our life experiences can impact us in several ways. Counselling provides a safe and confidential place where our lived experiences can be explored to provide greater understanding and insight into who we are as individuals. True strength is not just determined by one’s ability to win or succeed but rather the capacity to persevere through hardships. Knowing that difficult periods or disappointments in life are finite but hope is infinite, will empower one toward their therapy goals.

My clients' goal is to design the life they love. They are typically internationally mobile people who are facing challenges related to significant change – moving between different countries/cultures, change in their relationship status or professional roles. They might be going through challenging times in life and facing difficult choices: infidelity, separation, empty nest syndrome. We work in their first or second language - English, Russian or Bulgarian. And even if I don’t speak your native tongue, as someone who is multilingual, I understand the challenges and gifts that come with bilingualism and multilingualism.

Do you suffer from home and work-based anxiety, stress management, workplace performance, grief/bereavement and/or family conflict? Clients seeing me want help to succeed at work, help with achieving work/life balance from COVID-19, and help resolving communication difficulties with co-workers and family members. Clients who see me come for solutions to problems, not drawn out therapy or coaching. My aim is to help you in a minimal amount of time, for an affordable price that beats out most psychologists and coaches.

If you are suffering the loss of a family member or loved one, a job, a home, I can support you through your sadness and confusion. If you are feeling at risk of abuse or self-harm, I can work with your trauma to help you find clarity and direction. If you are struggling with loneliness, anxiety and depression, or grappling to balance your own needs with those of others, in relationships, work or family, I can support you to regulate your emotions and manage your behaviours. If you are lacking in confidence and self-worth, I can work with you to build self-awareness and respect. I offer therapy to adults of all ages, from 19 to 90.

I am final year trainee psychotherapist and qualified mindfulness teacher offering low-cost psychotherapy as I work towards full accreditation. I practice Core Process Psychotherapy (CPP), a mindfulness based, transpersonal approach to therapy that is firmly rooted in the belief that at the ‘core’ of each of us lies the potential to connect more deeply with our inherent health and wisdom; in body, mind and spirit. If you decide to work with me you will be entering into a healing relationship with someone who is trained to hold and come alongside whatever is alive and going on for you with kindness, presence, insight and compassion.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online or over the phone 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.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counsellor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counsellors are all licensed mental health professionals. In many countries, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counsellor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counsellors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counsellor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counselling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
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.
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.
