Hello, my name is Ladan Ghiami and I am a counselling psychologist and artist. I am an experienced practitioner and have been working with clients for over 14 years in a range of settings including primary care in the NHS, student counselling in higher education and private practice which I set up in 2008. I offer brief (6-12 sessions) and longer term (open ended) counselling and psychotherapy to individuals and couples. My approach to therapy is collaborative, relational and creative. Therapy is essentially about internal change, and from there you will experience significant shifts in your external life as well.

Are you feeling helpless, hopeless, frustrated with life, others or your self? Does life feel like too much at times? Do you find yourself wondering what is the point? Are you anxious? worrying about things that have yet to happen. Dealing with difficult feelings can feel overwhelming and may seem as if you have nowhere to turn or no way out. Deciding to see a counsellor can be a scary thought, thinking about discussing, with a stranger, private and sensitive subjects or even things that may feel shaming. However, making the decision to start therapy can be the first step to empowering yourself to make changes in your life.

You may be a woman who is struggling with depression, relationship problems, anxiety, low self-esteem, or simply a sense of emptiness. You may feel trapped in, or emerging from, an abusive relationship. You may have experienced a loss recently- death of a loved one, divorce, loss of a job, even ageing poses its own special challenges. I specialise in working with women in particular, including LGBGT clients, by telephone, video link, and online.

You may be looking for a counsellor at the moment because there is a particular feeling or issue that is troubling you, or you may want to understand aspects of your personality, or relationships, a little better. You might be feeling stuck, or anxious, overwhelmed perhaps. I will provide a warm, receptive environment where you can talk about what is going on for you, and also explore how it is affecting you. Through this exploration, you will come to a deeper understanding of yourself and how you manage your life. It is through this deeper understanding of ourselves, that we are able to develop and move forward positively.

UPDATES: I offer 1:1/group low-cost Supervision sessions while I am completing my qualification. My practice: I truly believe in creating a relationship that works for you and that can support you safely in becoming more who you want to be, with more authenticity and psychological freedom. Therapy is a meaningful exploration of what deeply matters and particularly what has been neglected. My Psychosynthesis practice blends the exploration of issues in the here-and-now with a focus on what is trying to emerge, how you have been in the world, and what has impacted the expression of your full potential.

You have been feeling tense and overwhelmed for no apparent reason, although everything ‘seems fine’ on the surface and people often tell you that you were lucky in life. It might be that you don’t quite know where your emotional and physical reactions are coming from. As if your mind and body have a life of their own. It might seem you have it together all the time but it takes so much energy to keep things going. This never-ending sense of internal pressure feels exhausting but you are not quite sure how to get out of the cycle. You might be confused about who you really are, what is your true self.

I hope that the information you can find here will help you to initiate positive changes in your life. I offer therapy for clients struggling with their emotions, experiencing a crisis, relationship difficulties or career and work related concerns. I am experienced in providing effective therapy for depression, anxiety, trauma, stress, self esteem problems, body image concerns, as well as medically unexplained symptoms, sexual and intimacy problems and other psychological challenges. My way of working is emphatic, flexible and receptive to your individual needs.

Sometimes life gets really hard - complicated, confusing and painful. You're feeling anxious, down or depressed and you can't work out why. Maybe you do know why, but you've never felt able to speak about the reasons with anyone. The pace of modern life or past experiences can often make you feel that you have to try and deal with your difficulties by yourself, by sweeping them under the carpet or putting on a brave face. Perhaps it has seemed that if you just keep going, one day you’d wake up and your problems will have disappeared - but they haven't. So now you've decided to try something new, to seek some help.

Hello, I’m Agnieszka, an integrative counsellor with extensive experience working with trauma, personality disorders (BPD/EUPD, NPD), narcissistic and sexual abuse as well as a range of relational difficulties, including in family and romantic relationships. My experience includes working with loss, depression, anxiety, phobias, eating disorders, addictions, anger, PTSD, self-harm and suicidal ideation.

The reasons behind people seeking therapy are vast. For some, there may be a specific question; for others, it may be the desire to understand some part of themselves that they have been struggling to grasp for some time. We all experience times of difficulty and struggle, and sometimes we may find that familiar ways of coping no longer seem to help, or we notice our patterns with others no longer serve us to feel safe and secure. Therapy is designed to create a safe space, with no agenda, so that we can think carefully about ourselves within the context of our lives to explore understanding and change.

I offer short term Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) which will enable you to better understand what is maintaining a particular issue so that we can work together towards making you feel better. To be clear you are the expert on you and my role is to support you so that you may help yourself without having to spend an inordinate amount of time having therapy or continually returning to therapy. I offer an initial six entirely confidential sessions at a safe space in North Dulwich. Alternatively I am also qualified in Gestalt humanistic therapy too for if the issue runs a bit deeper and the support needed is longer term.

I am aware of the difficulty in making the decision to seek counselling and how overwhelming the process of finding the right counsellor can be. It can be a lonely journey when you are feeling overwhelmed, Counselling provides clients with the opportunity of having someone to explore and help to make sense of their emotions and thoughts. When we struggle with low self concept and shame, we may become stuck due to fear of being exposed (vulnerability). If this is not explored and understood its roots then it could manifest into other emotional issues such as anxiety and depression. Therapy can teach you helpful/healthy coping tools.
