Trauma Focused Counselling in East Finchley, London

We all encounter difficulties in life. It may be that you feel stuck and unable to move forward, to change things in your life and bring in more joy, peace and authenticity. I am here to help you with that. My approach to psychotherapy is relational and client focused. It provides a safe, confidential and non-judgmental space where we can think together about the difficulties in your life and what is causing them. Often, our past relationships and emotional development inform our present life to a much greater extent than we imagine. Together we can work towards creating a happier, more peaceful and more fulfilled life for you.

While I work mainly in an existential and phenomenological way I also use a range of techniques, including CBT, EMDR, Mindfulness, FLASH and Brainspotting. I provide a safe, non-judgmental space for adults, children, couples and families where we can work on understanding the situation you are in and how to make changes in your life. Whether you're experiencing anxiety, depression or coping with bereavement, therapy will be tailor-made for your situation. I work with neurotypical and neurodiverse clients struggling with ADHD, autism, dyslexia, self-harm or bullying.

I am a qualified passionate NCS-accredited counsellor and trauma therapist. In a confidential space, we will be exploring your situation, issues that hold you back from a life you want to live and what drives you in your decision-making. I practice an evidence-based trauma-informed approach. Your story is important and deserves to be heard, validated and understood. I pay attention to the connection between a traumatic event (or series of events) and how that may impact your mental, emotional, behavioural and spiritual well-being now.

Therapy is a space for you: to feel understood and listened to. Perhaps for the first time. And it is through this fundamental encounter that you can feel more able and alive. Our work together can support you in making a change, reflecting on painful experience, bearing a loss, finding a purpose. It can support you in these - and more - through creating new awareness, making helpful connections and finding a way forward. Therapy provides a way for you to understand, confront, resolve, heal and grow. I provide a safe, welcoming space for you to explore whatever it is that you need and want. In confidence and without judgement.

Hi there, I'm Laura. I am a Clinical Psychologist registered with the Health and Care Professional Council (HCPC) with over fifteen years experience working in the NHS and charity sector. I currently work within two specialist services in London working with individuals experiencing emotional difficulties. Whatever your reasons for seeking therapy, I offer a safe and non-judgemental space, which is your time to explore some of the difficulties you have been facing and work together to find ways forward in your life.

It takes courage to seek support, therefore I offer a confidential space where you can safely explore the particular situation you find yourself in. This may mean you come with a specific problem, anxiety, crisis or perhaps a vaguer sense that something doesn't feel quite right for you. Everyday life does not always leave room for reflection or questioning, therefore carving out a regular space to wonder, alongside another person about yourself, can be a powerful way to uncover how past experiences and relationships may have impacted the way things are now, whilst identifying how you would like things to be in the future.

A very warm welcome! My name is Kaan and I am a Clinical Psychologist and accredited CBT therapist and EMDR therapist, specialising in working with adults with a range of mental health difficulties, from anxiety and low mood, stress and burnout, difficulties regulating and managing emotions to trauma related difficulties.

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.

I am a Chartered Clinical Psychologist specialising in physical health conditions. If you are finding aspects of life challenging due to living with a health condition or you are supporting a loved one living with a health condition, I may be able to support you. Starting therapy can feel rather daunting. This is why I offer a warm and compassionate approach in working with your difficulties together. I offer brief and targeted therapy focused on developing coping skills to enable you to live a meaningful life alongside the health condition. I can also support you with your wellbeing if you do not live with a health condition.

I’m an experienced psychotherapist trained to the highest level in my profession with a doctorate in psychotherapy and counselling psychology. I believe that psychotherapy can create a non-shaming, safe space for you to explore the unsaid, to give voices to thoughts and feelings previously unknown. Psychotherapy can be challenging but growthful work that could increase awareness of yourself, create new meanings, and live life more in the present. Research shows that the most important factor in the success of therapy is client motivation - you have to really want to change for it to happen, and I am here to support that journey.

Across over 4,700 sessions of therapy I have helped my clients explore a huge range of emotional, relational, sexual or traumatic material to try and make sense of what those experiences have meant for them, how they have impacted them, and what they want to do about them going forward. No subject is off limits, no feelings unwelcome, and no challenge too big or small to be worth exploring safely and gently.

We are all bound to experience relational wounds, whether that happens in our attachment relationships with parents or later on in life in our romantic relationships. Sometimes we can integrate these wounds as part of life, but often they leave scars that impact our day-to-day life and future relationship dynamics. The hurt and pain experienced can affect our sense of self and it can create abandonment and other trauma-based responses. How we try to cope with our pain often causes more problems. Therapy with me helps you heal these wounds so that you can build loving, safe, and secure relationships with yourself and others.

I am a Consultant Clinical Psychologist and for the last 10+ years I have worked at University College London Hospital specialising in working with young people, parents and families affected by a range of psychological difficulties within the context of medical conditions such as cancer, diabetes & functional difficulties.

For all of us there are times when life becomes too difficult to bear alone. People come to psychotherapy for many reasons. You may have experienced a particular crisis that has left you struggling with powerful or disturbing feelings. Or you might feel overwhelmed by your emotions. Perhaps you feel angry, depressed, lonely or stuck, you might have suffered bereavement, or some other loss. The aim of psychotherapy is, through working and thinking together, to help understand your state of mind. Psychodynamic psychotherapy accepts that we all have an unconscious life, which can exert a powerful hold.

There are times in everyone's life when things can feel overwhelming. At others, we can find ourselves repeating unhelpful or destructive patterns in our behaviour or relationships.
