I am an integrative therapist and supervisor who works with adults in East Finchley in North London and online. The kind of issues that I help clients with include; anxiety, panic attacks, low mood, depression, relationship problems, jealousy, stress, repeated unwanted patterns of behaviour, work problems, grief and loss, low self esteem, self-harming or suicidal thoughts, addictions, anger, and body image or eating issues.

Luka is an experienced psychotherapist, intensively trained dialectical behaviour therapist and mindfulness teacher. As part of his commitment to support people in breaking out of stuckness and chronic suffering, he was trained and supervised by some of the leading therapists in the fields of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Radically Open DBT (RO-DBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for couples and individuals and most recently Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy.

I have 20+ years experience working with clients who have complex mental health needs and a forensic past, and those who are highly sensitive and experience their emotions more intensely than the average person. I support clients who present with a wide range of interpersonal and relationship difficulties, emotion regulation disorders such as BPD, childhood abuse, bereavement and loss, eating disorders, depression and anxiety and suicidal and self-harming behaviours. I offer clients a thorough assessment of their life history as well as identifying current needs and goals, and a clear, well-defined treatment package.

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 Integrative counsellor with experience of multiple models of therapy. This means I am able to integrate an approach which is appropriate to working with you. The BACP ethical framework is embedded into my practice, as it guides the way I work. It is my nature to have a genuine interest in people and how they cope with difficult issues that life may throw at them. The core my work is to create a trusting relationship, where I will work with you to identify patterns of behaviour and explore challenges with an aim to develop self-awareness to create change.

People seek therapy when they are dissatisfied or unhappy and feel that it is possible to make changes but this is very difficult alone. Psychotherapy is a particular type of conversation exploring thoughts, feelings and relationships. Psychotherapy offers the opportunity to think about what is troubling in a safe setting to understand and improve relationships, both with ourselves and others. My thinking and approach places relationships at the heart of experience. When patterns in relationships can be understood we can feel liberated to change.

Is your life is feeling hard or painful in some way right now? Something needs to change but it feels like a mountain to climb? Feeling stuck or confused? If you choose to work with me, my promise to you is that I will offer curiosity, respect, care and compassion. Perhaps, together, we can develop new, useful perspectives. I believe that though counselling, it's always possible to find new ways to move forwards in positive directions. I look forward to hearing from you.

Are you facing overwhelming life events or stressful relationships and looking to talk to someone outside of your family or friendship groups for non-judgemental, caring and professional support? Or perhaps you have decided it’s time to find help managing difficult feelings, isolation, low self esteem or patterns of behaviour that are badly affecting your quality of life? Whatever has brought you here, I can offer you a warm, nurturing and confidential space in which to share and explore your thoughts and feelings. Working together we can find ways to understand and manage your problems which can lead to positive transformation.

I am an accredited Psychotherapist, committed to providing an accepting and caring space for you to explore what you are struggling with. I have found that when you feel valued and understood by someone, you naturally become better at being able to offer that to yourself. I prioritise working to build trust, so I can be there to support you through painful and vulnerable moments. I believe that therapy can be a place where you get to explore parts of yourself that you might not often get to express. I have extensive experience working with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and sexual trauma.

Hello and welcome, my name is Tina, and I am a qualified Humanistic and Psychodynamic therapist based in London. I am a registered member of the BACP and adhere to all their code of ethics. I truly believe that with the right help and support people can overcome their difficulties in order to live a healthier and happier life. One of my core beliefs is trust. I see this as a vital part of the therapeutic alliance between the client and the therapist. I take an anti-discriminatory, LGBTQ+ affirmative stance, and I am open to difference in all its forms.

I believe the most important relationship we have in life is the one with the self. Curiosity, empathy and compassion are at the heart of my practice, as I believe these are the core conditions for creating lasting change. My aim is to create a warm, calm environment, a space to drop into the body, to feel and explore emotions and feelings and to cultivate a trusting and lasting relationship. Out sessions will last for 50minutes, this space and time is for you to bring whatever you choose to the sessions

Hi, I’m Ilan! I’m a Clinical Psychologist and Director of The Oak Tree Practice. I want to tell you a bit more about myself, as I realise selecting a psychologist can be a tough task! I feel very privileged to be able to say I love what I do and always have, ever since I started volunteering for ChildLine in 2007. Following this, I’ve had experience working with a wide variety of clients including children, young people, adults, older adults, military personnel, individuals with learning disabilities, neurodevelopmental disorders and neurological conditions. I have also furthered my studies through the completion of undergraduate, masters and doctoral degrees. All this aside, one of the most important parts of my work is building relationships with those sitting opposite me. I have always believed that you can have all the training and knowledge in the world, but if the client doesn’t return, none of this can be put into action. Therefore, my first aim is always to provide a warm, compassionate and non-judgmental space where we can work on the clients’ difficulties together.

​Life is full of challenges. At times we cope well, but at other times we need help, and talking to family members and friends can be difficult. At points like this, talking confidentially in a safe space to a professional counsellor can make a real difference. Through a warm and supportive relationship, we will explore any difficulties you are having in your life right now. We will also look back into your past, to try to understand patterns of behaviour that might not be quite so effective for you today. By exploring feelings and experiences and building self-awareness, we will work together to move towards a positive change.

Offering a fresh approach to psychological therapy from the young and vibrant Little Bee Clinic. We are here to support children, young people and families. Who are you? We are are a group of colleagues who aim to offer a modern approach to psychological therapy. We have all been trained as Clinical Psychologists, which means we have lots of experience working with children, young people and families.

I work with adults and young people from different backgrounds and different past experiences. I offer a confidential, non judgmental safe space where my clients can feel free to work through their presenting issue in a way that is comfortable for them. Therapy with me involves working together to identify the clients needs and agree the best possible way forward. I am a big believer in self-care and will work with my clients to ensure they focus on their own self-care throughout our therapy process and beyond. I'm passionate about working along side my clients throughout their therapy process to help them facilitate change.

I work in person and online with adolescents and adults. I offer a safe and confidential space to explore emotional difficulties and current situations. I listen without judgement, helping you to make your own decisions, to develop self-reliance, resilience, self-awareness and confidence to effect change. I have significant experience in working with clients who have or think that they have Autism as well as additional educational needs in general.

Welcome. I'm an Integrative therapist drawing from a range of therapeutic ideas and approaches in order to offer an individual service to each of my clients accorrding to their needs. I work in a relational way, meaning that I see therapy as a joint venture, an alliance in which I try to facilitate clients in understanding themselves, their needs and their difficulties - whatever may be getting in the way of achieving their goals and enjoying their lives. I also help clients to navigate the emotionally painful and challenging experiences that life brings to us all, to process past traumas and to explore relationship issues.

It is easy to find a counsellor but perhaps more difficult to know if you have found the right one for you? Will you feel safe and comfortable? Life events and experiences can be distressing, feel overwhelming and sharing these problems can feel daunting and anxiety provoking. I am an accredited, experienced psychodynamically trained psychotherapist/counsellor with some additional CBT training, that could offer you a confidential and non judgemental setting where we can work through any personal or relationship issues. You may be considering a short term focused therapy or some longer term psychoanalytic therapy?

I’m a registered psychotherapist and trained wild therapist, and I work outdoors on Hampstead Heath and online. I specialise in working with people who seek a deeper, more meaningful connection with life, with other people, and with the world around them.
