I am a psychodynamic counsellor and psychotherapist registered with the British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC). I worked for five years providing long-term psychotherapy to individuals with histories of addiction and childhood trauma. This gave me an understanding of the extent to which adverse early experiences can impact on behaviour and psychic functioning in adulthood. Since then, I have undertaken post-qualifying training in the treatment of PTSD, C-PTSD and dissociation. I have a particular clinical and theoretical interest in states of depersonalisation, derealisation, narcissistic and borderline personality structures.

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?

My work draws on psychoanalytic/psychodynamic, Jungian, relational, and creative arts therapy approaches.
I offer creative, embodied, introspective, and self-reflective psychotherapy. In my sessions, I provide a safe and non-judgmental space where you can explore issues through talking and a more imaginative and symbolic approach using creative mediums. Each journey of exploration is unique. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is the core of psychotherapeutic work, where we co-create a sense of meaning and transformation can take place. I will work with you to foster insight, change, and growth.

Hello, my name is Marie-Pascale.

You may be aware of your difficulty but no matter what you do about it, it's not working! Or you may not know what is causing you to feel the way you do and feel lost and unable to change it. Therapy is a time and a place for you to speak and be heard so that together we can find out what's not working for you and how it can be changed.

Although my training is rooted in psychodynamic and psychoanalytic theory, complemented by dramatherapy skills (Don't worry, I can do talk therapy and won't ask you to role-play - unless you want to), I can offer a flexible and tailored approach to suit your needs, whether you prefer short-term, goal-oriented therapy or need a long-term companion.
Well done you! Thank you for prioritising your mental health and taking the time to read my profile. Life can be challenging; sometimes, we just need someone to accompany us and provide a space for ventilation and reflection. This is why I adopt a non-pathological, non-judgmental, client-led approach to my practice. This means I do not see you as a problematic patient or judge the issues you bring. Nor do I consider myself a superior therapist or a saviour. Instead, I see myself as a companion on your healing journey. You guide me on how best I can support you.

I’m an Attachment-based Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist with over 20 years of clinical experience, working with individuals and couples.
People consider starting therapy for a variety of challenges. Sometimes you may find yourself repeating patterns from the past, getting stuck in relationships which may not be helpful to you or you might be overwhelmed by feelings of depression or anxiety. I offer an attachment-based psychoanalytic approach to therapy, which has at its core an understanding of the importance of relationships throughout life and how problems and distress in the present may be related to early experiences. Making sense of your feelings and experiences will help you develop your own choices and resources to change your life.

I practice integrative Therapy which means I draw from Psychodynamic, Psychoanalytic, Humanistic and Person-Centred schools giving me the ability to match theory to client.
Life can be difficult at times. We can feel depressed, anxious, stressed, worried or unable to cope. This can impact on all aspects of our lives; personal and professional. Sometimes all a client needs is someone to really listen to them and to accept what they are saying in a non-judgemental way. Therapy comes in all different shapes and sizes and I believe the mode of therapy should fit the client, we are all individuals after all. I put you, the client at the centre of the work and believe that together we can work collaboratively to help you mange your life more happily and successfully.

I work as a psychoanalytic psychotherapist and I have consulting rooms in Central London and North London. I have more than 30 years’ experience of working in the NHS as well as in independent practice. In my experience people seek therapy for many different reasons. They may be facing a predicament, be anxious, depressed or confused, or feel stuck in repeating patterns of thoughts and behaviour that have adverse effects on their lives. They may have relationship difficulties or questions about their sexuality; they may be finding it difficult to deal with the loss of a person, a position or an identity.

Before beginning therapy and psychoanalytic training I studied philosophy and religion.
Many of the issues we face in life can be hard to deal with alone. With help, thinking about who we are, what we want and what is wanted from us we can identify and address problematic areas in our relationships with ourselves, with others and with the world of work and love, overcoming obstacles and reducing our suffering. I offer a safe and secure space in which to articulate whatever may be playing on your mind. The way I practice is non-directive, meaning that you decide what you want to talk about and when so can explore what may be troubling you at your own pace, either in person in east London or remote.

As a psychoanalytic ( aka psychodynamic) psychotherapist), I can offer short term, time-limited or open-ended therapy.
I work with adults and adolescents 16+, and am experienced with a range of difficulties. Typically people come to psychotherapy because they feel in a crisis or at an impasse, and/or have been struggling for a while with a problem which despite their best efforts remains hard to overcome. They may recognise they find themselves in a repeating pattern in behaviour or relationships, which they feel is unsatisfying or self-destructive. They want to understand the origins of their difficulty and the factors which maintain it, so they can gain freedom from it and live a more satisfying and creative life.
