Connecting and relating to others is often one of life's hardest and most painful parts. Many people face challenges with their relationships, whether that's with a partner, friends, siblings, parents, or even the most important relationship—with themselves. People may come to therapy to talk about their sexuality or sexual challenges, communication blocks or trust issues. Partners may want to explore difficult topics such as a lack of desire or intimacy, or people might be curious to change aspects of their life that are no longer serving them.

As a human being, psychologist, supervisor and executive coach, I understand how life can be overwhelming. Whether you are coping with anxiety, depression, stress, work, family, relationships, or other difficulties, it's important to remember that there's nothing wrong with you. Overwhelming experiences have a way of taking hold of us and, when coping is no longer enough, seeking support is a courageous next step.

I work with a wide range of clients, however, most clients reach out to me when they are looking to work around relationships, low mood or anxiety, and difficulties in adjusting to change. Overall, my aim is to help my clients gain insight into their struggles and find different ways of thinking, behaving, and feeling about life and their circumstances. Change can sometimes be a painful and scary process, but working with someone willing to walk alongside you and help you develop the skills to manage the process can certainly make the therapeutic journey a pleasant and enjoyable one.

Hi, my name is Yaela. I'm a South African born psychologist with a speciality in Expressive Arts Therapy. I've worked with everyone from drug addicts to the homeless. In 2020, when Covid-19 broke out, I was working in acute mental health at a London-based organization. The loneliness within society, that has always been beneath the surface, became starkly evident. In order to help my clients, and my future clients, overcome the suffering of loneliness, I began a three-year global research project to uncover what makes happy, connected, healthy societies and how these lessons can be applied in the daily lives of my clients.

Using a range of systemic approaches, including attachment, narrative and solution focused ideas, I aim to offer clients a different way of looking at their problems, and support them to create new ways of communicating and create meaning within their relationships.
