Attachment-based Counselling in South West London, London

I have been working with a wide range of subjects such as childhood abuse, sexual abuse, attachment issues, relationship difficulties, trauma, PTSD, depression, anxiety, domestic violence, OCD, eating disorders, career planning, personal development and so on. My goal is to create a safe and supportive therapeutic relationship that empowers clients to grow, learn, and heal. I strive to create a therapeutic environment that is both supportive and empowering, helping clients to develop a deeper understanding of themselves and their relationships and to work towards positive change and growth.

Seeking support can be a challenging step to take. I am here to help. As a chartered clinical psychologist registered with the Health & Care Professions Council, I am trained to provide individuals, couples, and groups with evidence-based psychological treatments for a range of difficulties that can affect general well-being and quality of life. You may struggle with low mood and anxiety, and may be affected by issues such as relationship problems, low self-esteem, loss and bereavement, trauma, sexual problems, or substance misuse. It is also common to experience a number of issues at once, making problems seem insurmountable.

I am an integrative psychotherapist and couple counselor. I work with a range of approaches to suit your individual needs. I have over 20 year’s experience of working in various settings including the NHS with clients from different cultures and backgrounds.

My name is Humera and I would like to tell you little bit about who I am and what I offer. I hope to offer a safe, confidential and comfortable environment to allow the mind and body to heal. I work from an attachment-based perspective and my practice is located in Berkshire however I am also able to offer sessions in London. My journey began as a qualified social worker and am passionate about supporting individuals to understand the route of their difficulties and finding a way forward. I have over 10 years of experience working in a variety of settings consisting of charities, local authorities and NHS.

I am a Clinical Psychologist. I specialise in treating trauma, PTSD, and attachment related difficulties. I also provide therapy for a range of depression and anxiety related issues. I am registered with the HCPC and have over 10 years experience of working in mental health settings across the NHS and private practice. I have specialist training in relational and trauma therapies including Dynamic Interpersonal Therapy (DIT) and Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy. Everyone has their own unique challenges and struggles and so I provide a tailored approach to suit your individual needs.

I work from a psychoanalytic perspective with an attachment-based focus, providing my clients a space to explore how their past might be influencing their life at present, as well as the ways they relate and connect to others. In the therapeutic process I help clients to gain insight into their state of mind by bringing the unconscious to a conscious level. Alongside these processes, I pay dedicated attention to the quality of the relationship between myself and the clients. This combination is a powerful vehicle for facilitating a meaningful change in the clients’ lives.

She has a particular interest in working with people with a history of trauma and symptoms associated with PTSD and CPTSD; she has completed further training in specialist trauma focused models including EMDR and DBT-PE.

I provide a confidential, non-judgemental and accepting space for you to explore your emotions, issues and difficulties and express your thoughts and feelings.

Do you feel fed up and struggling to achieve your goals? Are you looking for movement and change? Would you like a therapist or supervisor who is understanding and able to help you progress forwards in the direction you would like to move in? I am Dr Zara Hosany, a Principal Clinical Psychologist with over 20 years experience working in mental health. I offer a range of interventions: individual work with adults, young people, parents, couples, family therapy; supervision for qualified professionals and trainees; coaching and mentoring, consultation work with organisations, and reflective spaces for groups.

I am an accredited psychotherapist and qualified mindfulness teacher. I practice Core Process Psychotherapy (CPP), a mindfulness based, transpersonal approach to therapy that is firmly rooted in the belief that at the ‘core’ of each of us lies the potential to connect more deeply with our inherent health and wisdom; in body, mind and spirit. If you decide to work with me you will be entering into a healing relationship with someone who is trained to hold and come alongside whatever is alive and going on for you with kindness, presence, insight and compassion.

At times, we all feel overwhelmed, uncertain or stuck, and have a sense that there is more out there and within us, to be discovered and brought to life, than we are engaging with. The aim of my therapy sessions is to enable you to get back in touch with yourself. To understand what is holding you back; how you can break the cycles of anxiety, monotony and the roles you feel you are stuck in. Whether you are sad, lonely, frustrated, uncertain, ashamed, guilty or confused, we can work together to support you through it so that you are not just surviving but thriving.

I have extensive training including a Master's degree in Psychotherapy. My own experiences relating to family dynamics, a career in the mental health sector, motherhood, relationships and loss are reflected and undoubtedly beneficial in the way I work. Professionally, I have a breadth of counselling experience working with adolescents and adults who have sought therapy while grappling with a range of challenges impacting their lives. I have also worked extensively with family carers who can, for example, feel isolated, depressed, stressed, anxious, resentful or angry.

Hello. Clients come to me in a state of distress or confusion about their relationships or the direction their life has taken. You may have experienced the loss of a loved one or of identity, you may have been betrayed, or feel regret. You may be a concerned parent, or a worried child. You want to feel safe, to feel understood, and to believe there will be help, that things will be different. Ideally, you come in knowing that there is something within yourself that you would like to change. First you need to tell a story, to vent anger, anxiety, grief or fear. Then you want to be heard, and you will be.

I am an experienced, qualified BACP registered Integrative Psychotherapeutic Counsellor offering short-term and long-term support. I work with children and adolescents in person or online. I am warm, compassionate, empathic, accepting, playful, and curious and work in a child-centred way. I have extensive experience of working as a therapist in both primary and secondary schools, as well as experience of working with neurodivergent children. I work with young people experiencing a wide range of difficulties, including, but not limited to, depression, anxiety, bereavement, family breakdown, OCD, and attachment-related difficulties.

We enjoy working with all things diversity from neurodiversity to cultural diversity. We work with organisations to ensure psychological safety but we also dedicate work to coach individuals to maximise their neurodiverse strengths for high performance in the workplace. We have developed a programme to treat racial trauma and a programme to help allies to support their colleagues, friends, family and peers. If you are worried about your mood, your relationships or your performance at work and you are neurodiverse or culturally diverse, we can help you....no we can work together.

Life’s pressures can sometimes make us feel unsure of ourselves and this can make us feel unhappy. Our true selves can get buried under the weight of conditioning and other people’s ideas of who we are, and we can lose sense of where we are going. I am a warm, caring integrative therapist who will work by encouraging you to find answers from within. I can help you discover the person you were before you drew conclusions from others. I believe we all have the power to choose who we want to be. There is only one person that we can change and that is ourself and I can help you as you embark on this journey of discovery and growth.
