In Person Counselling in Belsize Park, London

Have you been feeling lonely and isolated? Have those feelings impacted the way you perceive and connect with the world and people around you? Sometimes you may feel that difficult experiences from your past still haunt you, leaving very little space in your mind to be in the present. And it may feel hard to recognise the way you have been feeling lately. The mood swing, anxious and depressing feelings feel hard to manage. It can be daunting having to deal with confusing feelings and sensations and so much on your won, when you are just trying to be true to yourself.

Looking for an outsider's perspective? Wanting a change? When working together closely, in an open, honest and confidential setting, we can access parts of your past, present and future to break old beliefs and thought patterns. Among all the new perspectives therapy has to offer, learning coping strategies to help you function in everyday life is something concrete you can take away.

Taking the first step by asking for help is a significant and courageous moment. I am an experienced qualified psychotherapist, for almost a decade I have conducted psychotherapy groups and offered psychodynamic therapy to individuals within the NHS. I am a registered BACP psychotherapist, a group work practitioner and an Associate Member of the Institute of Group Analysis.

My name is Dr Umesh Joshi. I think everybody deserves the right to access mental health services that meet their needs. It can feel confusing trying to find the right therapist for you. I'm here to work with you to figure out what you may need, and if you already know what you need, to work with you in thinking about how we can get there. I am passionate about offering clients a safe and confidential space and an approach that works with them. I have over ten years of experience working in mental health with children, adolescents and adults from a diverse range of backgrounds.

Are you looking for the kind of therapy that explores relational trauma and how this is embodied, and affects our relationships with others, food, body and self? If you've found yourself querying your childhood, or wondering why you can't seem to feel ok, or why your relationships seem dissatisfying, or why you feel like you are not able to care for yourself or cope well, come on in. This is a queer friendly space and politically liberatory practice.

We can sometimes find it difficult to connect with those closest to us or even with ourselves. Traumatic events, change, loss and ongoing stress can lead us to feel overwhelmed, stuck, anxious, irritated, confused or low and lacking in motivation. If this resonates with you, I provide a confidential space for you to explore, reflect and process your experience, without judgement. I offer a collaborative approach; working creatively with calm compassion and gentle curiosity. By enhancing self awareness and developing self acceptance, you can move towards more satisfying, life-affirming, choices and connections.

Welcome. I am a qualified counsellor and chartered psychologist with years of experience working with individuals and groups. I offer psychotherapeutic counselling online and in Edinburgh and Southampton. Apart from counselling, I have over 27 years' experience of university teaching and research in psychology, which has enriched my practice. I can help with relationships, personality issues, cultural adjustment, identity, anxiety, bereavement, stress, gender, sexuality, self-esteem, life transitions and existential crisis.

I'm a psychotherapist (MSc), Somatic trauma therapist and EMDR therapist working with depression, anxiety, loss, sexual identity, self-esteem & relationship difficulties, abuse, trauma, PTSD. Through therapy, I can help you restore your strength and build up your resilience so that you can face life’s challenges with greater ease. I’ll support you in learning how to make empowering choices, regain control over your feelings, actions and relationships, as well as finding resolution to painful past events so you can achieve positive changes in life.

My goal is to enable a strong mental foundation where mindful skills will help you keep your life in reach. Progress means change, rehearsing new ways of thinking or a range of strategies to iterate development safely. The result, a genuine approach for you to always find a better way forward. I am HCPC-registered in clinical, counselling, health and occupational psychology. Supervisor, providing services for individuals, couples and organisations beginning from eclectic CBT interventions (ACT, DBT, ST) - the most effective and intuitive psychological framework.

I am a UKCP and BPA-accredited Psychotherapist specialised in psychodrama psychotherapy and holding an MSc in Theoretical Psychoanalysis from UCL where I graduated with Distinctions. I offer psychotherapy for individuals, couples, and groups. In the NHS I offer psychotherapy to people considered to have complex and enduring psychological difficulties. Through an integration of traditional verbal techniques and modern embodied methods regulating the nervous system, I assist you in both uncovering the underlying reasons behind your behaviors as well as facilitating your healing process.

As an Integrative Counsellor, Psychosexual & Relationship/Marriage therapist, I weave different therapies to support clients in their uniqueness to manage and heal from struggles that affect their emotional, and mental health & happiness. Ruptures in one's mental wellness can lead to stress, depression, anxiety, addiction, and sexual functioning/ identity concerns that hinder emotional self-esteem and ongoing happiness within and in our relationship with ourselves and others.
