“Don’t be satisfied with stories, how things have gone with others. Unfold your own myth”. Rumi

As we come into a healthier relationship to emotional trauma and wounding from history, energy is freed up and the positive counterparts of what was repressed are made available to us. The methods of Psychosynthesis can result in a release of creativity, motivation, freedom and a feeling of increased well being.

Support to deal with a range of issues including: relationship difficulties, stress, and anxiety, trauma, addiction, sexuality, depression, bereavement, self-harm, abuse, low confidence, and self-esteem.

Hi, I’m Geanina, a counsellor-in-training at the Institute of Psychosynthesis and a trainee member of the BACP. I am currently a counsellor at the Psychosynthesis Trust in London. I also have experience working as a career coach having trained in this area.

I will offer you a non-judgemental and safe space to talk about your difficulties, so you can gain the awareness and understanding you need to move beyond them.

What brought me to this work is my passion for understanding people and my desire to be a soothing presence for them. My intention is to offer you a safe space where you can feel listened to and accepted no matter what you bring to therapy. Exploring your inner landscape in such a space will allow you to see yourself more clearly and to take a new perspective on your current struggles. With increased awareness, shifts will begin to happen within that will have a positive influence on how you act outside the therapy room as well.

Whatever has brought you here….relationship problems, work stress, anxiety, depression, fear, family issues….together we will create a safe space to explore your experience and process your feelings. After all life is often challenging and lonely, the fact you are here looking for support is the biggest and most courageous first step to healing.

I am a Psychosynthesis counsellor, offering short- and long-term work, online or in person at my home in Suffolk.  I made the commitment to my own personal journey of healing and growth mid-life after a career in Marketing.  I chose to study and practice Psychosynthesis as I value the central perspective that we ALL have the potential for healing and change.  It’s in realising that potential we can connect to our life’s purpose giving us meaning and a sense of value. 

I hope that what you have read here encourages you to take the next step to get in touch so we can arrange a time for an initial consultation.  The initial session gives us space to discover what brings you to therapy, to start to get to know each other and to determine if you would like to work with me, we will then take it from there.

Whatever you choose take care of yourself.

I offer therapy following the Psychosynthesis modality as a qualified counsellor accredited with NCPS.

My practice is informed by lived experience, a great deal of self-experimentation, and exploration, a range of educational courses and 7+ years of running workshops and facilitating groups.

I have had a varied career in business development and marketing for 20+ years, living on different continents and collecting many life experiences. I have lived in Europe, the Middle East, North America and Asia.

A personal and financial crisis in 2010, forced me to completely re-evaluate my life and values, begin therapy and dig deep inside for self–awareness and self-love. 

I have identified as Polyamorous since 2011, experiencing a wide variety of relationship dynamics in the spectra of Multigamy. I have assimilated knowledge from diverse sources and, most importantly, have made my own mistakes, and learnt a great deal from them.

In the aftermath of the Covid-19 pandemic, these experiences led me to train in psychotherapy following the Psychosynthesis modality, and formalise what had been a hobby since 2014 (I’ve been giving talks, facilitating discussions and holding workshops about non-monogamy, sex positivity, consent and kink to audiences of up to 300 people).  I draw on my training modality, as well as Radical Honesty, Non-violent Communication and Wheel of Consent training.

My therapy is open to anyone, regardless of orientation and identity.

I have particular experience and understanding, working with people who identify as Queer, Kinky, Non-monogamous or Neurodivergent.

Have you ever wondered if there could be more to life? Do you experience feelings of depression or anxiety?

Psychotherapy can help you in decluttering the defensive layers that are hindering your capacity for a true connection with yourself, life and others.

As a trainee psychotherapist, I will work in a way that enables you to recognise the voice of your higher self which gets overpowered by the voice of your ego – often disguised as anxiety, fears, and worries –  so that you can start to find a closer and healthier relationship with your creative self.

Originally from the Netherlands I have lived in Scotland since 1984. I have always felt inspired by the arts in all its forms. It informed my early work as an artist-craftsman and continues to be central to my work as a psychotherapist.

For 20 years I worked as a senior manager in mental health where I had a responsibility for policy and service development. I continue to deliver training to staff and management teams as a consultant.

I have been registered with UKCP as a psychotherapist since 2003. For 10 years I was a senior faculty member with the Institute of Psychosynthesis until 2019 and continue to support students completing their MA thesis.

I completed the following training.

• MA Psychosynthesis Psychotherapy validated by Middlesex University
• Diploma Psychosynthesis Therapeutic Counselling
• a Certificate in Psychodynamic supervision with the Scottish Institute of Human Relations
• a Foundation in Group Analysis with the Institute of Group Analysis

My current work in private practice consists of

• individual psychotherapy and counselling
• clinical supervision
• training and consultancy work with organisations

Oxford Relationship Counselling

I am a qualified relationship counsellor (MA in Psychotherapy, Institute of Psychosynthesis, Diploma Centre for Counselling and Psychotherapy Education in Couple Counselling, Diploma Emotionally Focussed Therapy), registered with UKCP and specialising in working with couples.

There are times when the problems in your relationship become too much and you may feel stuck as a couple – distrust has replaced intimacy and you don’t know how to re-connect with your partner. As a relationship counsellor I do not take sides, but I help both partners to share difficult and often painful feelings in a safe and respectful setting. I will help you to develop skills and awareness so that you can resolve areas of conflict and find greater love and harmony between you.

The sessions are your space: I listen to you and offer feedback, insights and ideas. Your session can be an hour or an hour and a half, and, is at the same time every week. We normally work for 4 sessions and then have a discussion to find out whether you think the therapy is going to be helpful to you. I will indicate roughly how long you may need in order to feel the benefits in your life although it is your decision when you are ready to leave.

The cost of a session is £70, with a concessionary rate of £50, and I offer a student/unemployed rate of £20.

My name is Elaine Lim. I am a Psychosynthesis Psychotherapeutic Counsellor. I operate from my home in Angel, Islington, North London. I offer both in person as well as online sessions depending on your needs and circumstances.

Do you struggle with anxiety, depression or loneliness? Or do you perhaps suffer from low self-esteem, and struggle to find purpose in life? Are your relationships fulfilling for you, or do you struggle to have meaningful and satisfying connections with others?

My intention is that I provide a safe, non-judgmental listening ear to those in need. To this end, I am able to call upon my training and studies in both Eastern (yoga, meditation, tantra) as well as Western (astrology, tarot, plant medicines) spirituality and mysticism.

Together, we will work towards strengthening your connection to your innermost being, giving you tools to be able to access your own inner guidance and wisdom, such that over time you are gradually able to come into a more grounded and centred space within your being. I would also like to work with you on opening your heart to all the joy, beauty and abundance that is your birthright. My ultimate aim is that you should be able to step into being a conscious co-creator of your own reality and connect to your soul’s infinite creative potential, thereby empowering you to achieve your heart’s deepest desires in this life.

Hi my name is Claudia and I am a Psychotherapeutic Counsellor with a Masters in Psychosynthesis Psychology, accredited with UKCP.

Originally from Germany I have lived in the Uk for 20 years now.

My approach is warm, authentic and relationship-led. I am most interested in the connections we make with one another and how good connections can lead to a healthier, happier life.

I have a special interest and experience working with relationship issues and highly sensitive people. 

Psychosynthesis shows us who and what we truly are. As light falling upon a bud can cause it to unfurl, the work done in a psychosynthetic context is capable of bringing remarkable and transformative change.

Personal Introduction

I have over 25 years’ experience leading, managing, consulting and delivering innovative solutions in micro businesses to global enterprises achieving mission critical sustained outcomes in a variety of industries. Organisation transformation and high performance work team coaching from 2010, with professional personal (life, work and leadership) coaching from 2018.

Why Do I Coach?

“Great players and great teams need great coaches too”. This work chose me. In this I finally found the creative construct for my ceaseless curiosity – I find purpose in guiding people to find their path, and then transition to live and lead authentically.

Why Do People Choose My Coaching?

We all benefit from being listened to and receiving feedback with open hearts and minds. My coachees discover a new authentic understanding of themselves and the world as they travel towards their meaningful life goals aligned to their meaning and their purpose.

What Do I Believe About Coaching?

I received great benefits when I asked a coach for help. Through his coaching my vision of myself and the world changed to something I believe in and journey joyfully forward with. We need to believe that we’ll be okay with this next seemingly difficult step, and the next, and the next. Coaching creates a tension between safety, adventure, excitement and nervousness in service of the coachee’s change-ability, and thus to growth that personally matters.

What’s It Like To Work With Me?

You know you are heard, you are seen, all of you is included, and you are accepted unconditionally. You will notice yourself, your outer world and your inner world differently. I challenge and teach you to identify and disidentify with all of your parts. I am a dedicated, kind and calm guide and travelling companion. The work you undertake with me is manageable, amazing and the experiences you have as your path emerges one step at a time are impossible to predict at the start of our journey together.

What Do You Receive From Working With Me?

To maintain focus and track progress, I typically work in sets of six sessions over three months. For each set we define your goals and work towards them. We meet fortnightly for one hour to track and “ground” your progress, to explore different perspectives and discover opportunities that become stepping stones that build up your inner abilities naturally as you journey forwards. We know you are doing it right when you are a little uncomfortable and your “goldilocks goals” turn from ideas and dreams into reality.

Outside Of Work?

I love being with my wife and eight year old son, learning, investment dabbling, travelling, cooking (especially spicy Thai specialities), eating experiences, wonderful wines and whiskies, mesmerising movies, immersive music, walking, cycling, tennis, swimming, exercising, holistic treatments, and especially conscious conversations.

Where?

I see clients between West London and The City, and more recently over FaceTime, WhatsApp, Skype, Zoom, Google Hangouts, Discord, Slack and WebEx. And when all that internet high tech breaks, sometimes even the phone for clients who have been with me long enough.

Core Belief

True freedom is the inner space you master to choose what is (good) for you.

Core Me

A warm, wise, connected presence, humble, healthy energy flow.

Chris Ambrose – Psychotherapeutic Counsellor

Therapy – Counselling.

Hello,  I am a fully qualified counsellor, having started training in 1998 and in part-time private practice in 2000. I am a member of BACP and have completed the four-year training programme at the Insitute of Psychosynthesis, where I was awarded my Counselling Diploma in 2017 and  Master’s Diploma in Psychosynthesis Psychology in June, 2019.  My Master’s Degree in Psychosynthesis Psychology was awarded by Middlesex University in 2019. My thesis was recognised with a distinction and the Emma Stavrou Thesis Award. I am completing a seven-month Couples Counselling training in July 2020. I have experience working in private practice and also in an NHS hospital setting (LivingWell CIC at St Charles Hospital) and the low-cost counselling service at the Psychosynthesis Trust. I have worked with clients on issues of trauma, anxiety, self-esteem, crises of meaning,  grief, addiction and co-dependency, body dysmorphia, chronic illness, depression, and career-change  and life-stage transition. I also part of a pilot project called ConnectWell,  a cross-disciplinary initiative to combat loneliness and isolation.  I have some evening availability and Fridays in the daytime. My therapy room is one minute walk from Richmond tube and train station.  During the current pandemic, I offer sessions on Zoom. Thank you, Carole

Online and in person counselling and psychotherapy.

I provide a warm and compassionate space for you to talk about whatever it is that may be troubling you. I can help you to find new perspective and gain deeper understanding as we explore the parts of yourself you least understand, and uncover your own innate ability to heal and transform your life. As you gain a deeper understanding of  yourself, what you want and how you relate to others, your emotional wounds transform into wisdom and your relationships deepen, the burdens of the past and worries for the future become lighter as you begin to live more freely and fully in the present.

I have always been curious about what motivates and inspires people through their lives. For a number of years I travelled and lived in different countries and cultures eventually settling back in the UK and a career in publishing and later photography. It was through my own experience of seeking therapy and learning to view myself and others through a more compassionate lens that inspired me to train as a counsellor and psychotherapist.

I’m passionate about personal, professional and spiritual development and I sit alongside my clients with empathy, acceptance and respect knowing we are both on a journey of self discovery to become more of who we truly are.

If you’d like to have a relaxed, no obligation chat to find out if therapy is right for you at this time in your life do get in touch, I’d love to hear from you. My practice is in the centre of Frome in a peaceful and discreet setting and I also see clients online.

Couple Counselling

I work as a relationship counsellor using EFT – Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy. I offer skype sessions. Please see http://www.relatenow.co.uk for  more information.

I offer a therapy of hope with an eye not only on history, but also on a purposeful future.

I recognise that we all have a True Self and that there are times in life when it can be particularly challenging to express this higher potential. Conflict between our emerging Self and learnt adaptations of the past can cause struggle and suffering. The context for all my work is to support you to live a creative life aligned to discovering and actualising your unique purpose, meaning and values.

I work with clients experiencing the inevitable human suffering caused by bereavement, illness, relationship issues, work related challenges and a whole array of life changes; and with clients who choose to engage with existential issues. My relationship with clients is authentic, collaborative and holistic. I encourage you to be truly you.

My work is informed by my extensive training in Psychosynthesis psychology, psychotherapy, counselling and executive coaching.

I practice from Milnthorpe and Ulverston in Cumbria. Coaching is also available online and I work as an executive coach UK wide.

I have been a psychosynthesis psychotherapist for around 20 years. I like to work in a very supportive manner, really hearing you with full attention. I hold compassion and care for you as very important, even whilst challenging you if necessary. I aim to be authentic, honest and open. I keep our work totally confidential.

We can look at therapy as working through four phases:

Phase 1 – becoming aware of your inner world. Most of the time we do not think about our thoughts, feelings and bodily sensations, but each of these drives our behaviour and how we experience life. Often our thoughts, feelings and sensations have their roots in our past and may no longer be relevant, yet still colour our view of the world. To get going in therapy, the first step is beginning to notice what is going on inside you. Doing this is not only the first step, but in its own right brings change. You begin to see that you are more than your thoughts, feelings and bodily sensations: that these are only things that you know. Seeing this starts to bring more peace, love and happiness to your life;

Phase 2 – builds on your growing self knowledge by examining it further, particularly memories and beliefs. When we look at these carefully, we often find that they do not make as much sense as we have imagined. By exploring them we begin to build a more coherent story about our life and to feel more coherent and whole. With this comes increasing flexibility in dealing with life;

Phase 3 – is where we move past the ways we have had to adapt ourself to life, moving past denial, shame and guilt. We begin to open to our deeper needs and our life purpose, meaning and values, rather than those we have inherited;

Phase 4 – takes our new found learning into the world and into all our relationships, whether at home, work or leisure. In this phase our new found openness to ourself allows us to have more open, richer and intimate relationships with others. We learn to love and be loved without betraying ourself.

Although I speak of four phases, in practice all these phases are simultaneous. A better picture would be of a spiral, where we cycle through these phases again and again, but each time at greater depth.

Hampstead Therapist

I am a qualified Integrative Therapist, BACP member.

In addition, I am a Psychosynthesis therapist in training at the Institute of Psychosynthesis, London, where I am completing my Masters in Psychosynthesis Psychology.

I have worked mostly in the areas of co-dependency, addictions, depression, anxiety, bereavement, low self-esteem, family issues, spiritual crisis and other blockages or traumas.

Being of service to others in the form of  helping a ‘fellow traveller,’ providing a safe, empathetic, non-judgemental, compassionate space is the foundation of my practice. The work is done collaboratively, so that you feel supported and encouraged in working through your barriers, becoming more connected to your Authentic Self, and living a more fulfilling and purposeful life.

In my experience, healing and positive change often begin with challenging crises, but with the appropriate therapeutic alliance, where the client feels understood, motivated, and invested in their work with the therapist, a shift from survival mode to thriving occurs.

I have been practicing meditation, especially pranayama (breathing meditation) and Vedic chanting for the past 15 years and find it to be a soothing and helpful tool in the process of healing, which is also available to you in your session, if you so choose.

My practice is 2 minutes from the Hampstead Heath Overground, very near the enchanting Hampstead Heath in northwest London.

Walking therapy is also available.

Please contact Sílvia Bueno on:

☎︎ 075 0765 4869           ✉️ siltuplait@yahoo.co.uk

Sessions available in English and Brazilian Portuguese.

Concessions available.

I am a psychotherapist, offering psychosynthesis counselling, psychotherapeutic counselling, psychotherapy and meditation training.

As a registered and accredited member of the UKCP, BACP and APP, I abide by the BACP and UKCP code of ethics.

Since 2007, I have worked with a range of clients in the following three areas:

• Clients facing one off issues. This could be anything from a relationship break-down, to dealing with a problem at work, or removing a blockage to achieving a goal
• Clients who are affected by, and wish to address, deeper issues. For example, feelings of isolation, fear of intimacy, relationship problems, unresolved family issues, anxiety and depression
• Clients interested in personal development. For example, clients wishing to find who they really are, develop themselves and lead a more satisfying life

I also have experience of working with clients in a range of areas including relationship and family issues, becoming a mother and raising children, addictions and 12 Step programmes, eating disorders, offending, disability, financial problems, work related issues and spiritual matters.

Being passionate about my work, I continue to be amazed by what people are capable of in the right circumstances. On a cloudy day, the sun is still shinning, and so it is with you. I believe that within each of us, there is an unlimited depth of innate wholeness and wellbeing, but sometimes we get a little lost and need some help to find our way back. As an experienced guide, who has walked these paths many times, I will gladly help you find your way.

If you have any questions about how I can help, I would love to hear from you.

Hannah Gleeson –

I am a psychospiritual counselling trainee offering affordable counselling in person and on-line. I am based in the Brecon Beacons, South Wales. I have achieved a masters in Psychosynthesis Psychology, accredited with UKCP.

Having qualified initially as a health care professional over 10 years ago, I have practiced mainly within acute mental health services. Consequently, I know the value of baring witness to, and caring for, another’s suffering, as-well-as personally receiving witnessing and care from colleagues and mental health professionals.

I offer a safe space to relate, process, explore, emote, emerge. If this is something you’re looking for then give me a call for a free initial consultation.

I offer counselling and psychotherapy on-line and in person in central Brighton and currently have vacancies for clients.

I have been a full time doctor and medical scientist for much of my life and I first came to counselling and psychotherapy more than 20 years ago during a mid-life crisis. Nearly 10 years ago I decided to train as a therapist myself and I qualified as a counsellor, psychotherapeutic counsellor and psychotherapist and now see clients with various forms of suffering including anxiety, depression, relationship problems and addictions.

We all struggle with life’s ups and downs at one time or another and sometimes we can get stuck in old patterns of thoughts, feelings or behaviours. Counselling and psychotherapy offer opportunities to talk about life’s frustrations and to explore deep emotional issues with the aim of resolving them or decreasing their power and providing more choice for the future.

My approach acknowledges that suffering can be caused by a loss of contact with who we really are and much our work together will be aimed at restoring, renewing and strengthening this contact with your true Self and supporting you in living your life from this deep place of inner peace and love.

‘When the existence and marvellous power of the deeper self is recognised, the “Know Thyself” of the Delphic Oracle acquires a new and profounder meaning. It no longer means only “analyse your thoughts and feelings and actions”, it means study your most intimate self, discover the real being hidden in the depths of your soul, and learn its marvellous potency.” This quote from Roberto Assagioli is one of my favourite and says it all.

I have been a psychosynthesis psychotherapist for nearly 30 years. I am a registered supervisor with UKCP,  training therapist, and group worker. I have extensive experience in the field of addiction, and teach a psychospiritual model of addiction in various settings. I am also part of StepInAsap a group of psychotherapists who bring both personal and professional experience to developing understanding and insight into  ‘Contempory ‘family dynamics in the light of the evolving nuclear family.

I am an Accredited Psychotherapist with UKCP, member of CAP, and PCU.

Firstly, well done for finding the courage to reach out for help and taking that first step which is crucial for transforming your life. Although challenges are an unavoidable part of our existence, we are often overwhelmed by them and psychologically unequipped to deal with what life throws at us. However, in that hardship there is always an opportunity for growth and healing, which I have experienced myself. As a result, I developed a great passion for helping others to find their way forward, and for the last 13 years have provided clients with various forms of support of which counselling has proved to be the most rewarding.

I am a qualified MBACP Psychosynthesis Counsellor with a BSc (hons) in Psychology and background in Yoga philosophy, currently completing my MA in Psychosynthesis Psychology. Apart from my private practice, I also work for You Trust – a charity that helps survivors of abuse, and I am a part of Dorset Practice. Besides psychosynthesis, my professional experience has also been influenced by person-centred, transpersonal, humanistic, CBT, ACT, Yoga and art therapy approaches, and I have worked with individuals experiencing many different problems and dilemmas. Psychosynthesis that I offer is a therapeutic approach that focuses on self-discovery and development, whilst integrating many aspects of human being, including spiritual, emotional, cognitive and physical.

I will do my best to help you find who you truly are, develop healthy coping skills and reach your full potential. I believe there is always a light at the end of the tunnel and would be honoured to help you find it, whilst guiding you throughout this process in a safe and confidential environment, where you can be truly listened to and accepted for who you are.

No life is entirely without suffering and seeking help often means transforming a painful event into a new source of meaning and hope. At some point we all feel tested to our limits. Seeking professional support during these difficult times can transform stressful, painful issues into positive energy and fresh insights. Helping you to honour and accept who you truly are, to believe in yourself and find your voice is what I strive to achieve in our counselling sessions. My aim is to welcome the parts of you as well as all of you and explore your symptoms and difficulties together.

I am studying for an MA in Psychosynthesis Psychotherapy which focuses on the Psychospiritual ‘being’. As a qualifying Psychospiritual Practitioner, I am fully insured, registered with the UKCP, hold an enhanced DBS and am under supervision at the Institute of Psychosynthesis in London. I have also completed a Diploma in mindfulness meditation. I believe this is a powerful tool in creating a space where we can reconnect with our consciousness and be in the moment.

Psychosynthesis goes beyond the treatment of an illness and focuses on the well-being and fulfilment of the individual. It benefits people who are seeking peace of mind and looking to discover greater meaning and joy in their lives. It provides a nurturing space to work with both the darkness and emerging light in our lives.

I speak English and Spanish and I am happy to use either language to suit you. I offer negotiable fees and work in Central London.

Sarah Alford.

Redruth, Cornwall.

Psychosynthesis Counsellor and Trainee Psychotherapist.

The impulse to come to therapy often stirs because something in our lives feels cracked or broken. This crack hurts and we reach out because we want the hurting to stop. Within the tradition of depth psychology this healing is not about patching over the crack, it’s about recognising a more expansive experience of ourselves which is pushing into our lives and seeking to be born. For the crack which brings us into therapy is also a doorway to a more authentic, purposeful and vital life.

As a Psychotherapist with 20 years experience I am committed to working creatively and in depth with individuals who are unhappy in themselves or in relationship with others. Rooted in Psychosynthesis, my approach is relational, creative and integrative. I have particular interest in issues of purpose, identity and self expression which surface at transitional points such as becoming a parent, bereavement, separation, or mid life.

My book ‘HIDDEN WONDERS OF THE HUMAN HEART – How to See Through your Sorrow’ is available at http://www.susanholliday.co.uk and at all good book retailers

Located in Southfields in South West London, my practice is easily accessible by tube on the District Line (3 mins walk) and by road and overground rail (Earlsfield BR 12 mins walk) from places such as Putney, Richmond, Clapham, Wandsworth and Wimbledon.

Therapy is about creating a safe, nurturing non-judgmental space to reflect, identify self-destructive behaviours and patterns, and process your difficulties. My aim is to help guide you through the process of re-connecting to your own inner wisdom and resources. Learning to trust yourself in your life decisions and rediscovering your own unique values, meaning and purpose.

Often in life when we experience painful things, there is a tendency to run away or try to ignore them. This can lead to struggles such as depression, anxiety, loneliness, and addiction. By exploring these difficulties in a safe, caring, and observant environment we can gently come to know them and in doing so can shift their hold on our lives. As well as letting go of the difficulties, we can begin the journey of bringing awareness to where our adaptations began and connect with who we truly are.

Psychological work helps us to understand how our personality has developed over time; spiritual work connects us to our deepest sense of purpose, meaning and values. Psychosynthesis embraces both, enabling us to find the ground that holds us through the inevitably changing waters of the river of life.

When we invite a kind attention and compassion to the places where we feel broken and wounded, we begin a process of healing, learning and bringing forth what is calling to be expressed in our life.  This builds a deep reservoir of resilience, from which we are able to recognise and move beyond adaptations and limitations linked to early survival, reconnect with our inner wisdom and realise our true potential.

The long-term influences of shamanic practice, Eastern spirituality, yoga, meditation, poetry and myth run through my work.  Alongside my practice as a therapist, I teach a safe, accessible balance of yin, yang and restorative hatha yoga that facilitates holistic wellbeing and a kinder relationship to the body, feelings and mind.  My professional experience includes thirty years’ experience in the corporate world, as an HR Director, leadership development expert and coach.

I am also a Training Supervisor, working towards the Diploma in Integrative, Transpersonal Supervision at The Psychosynthesis Trust.  I offer low cost, individual/group, in person/online supervision for coaches, counsellors and psychotherapists, which meets the supervision requirements of both UKCP and BACP.

I am a counsellor working with adults at every stage in life; how we relate to ourselves can open us up to more meaningful relationships in our outer world.  I provide a safe, stable and creative place to explore both historical and present life patterns that can be worked with to illuminate and provide gateways to a more integrated, authentic self and sense of purpose.

Some areas I work with, but are not limited to: anxiety, depression, relationships,  trauma, life goals/personal development, creativity.

About me:

I am working towards my MA in Psychosynthesis Psychotherapy at the Institute of Psychosynthesis (accredited by Middlesex University, London), having completed my counselling training at the Institute.

Qualifications:

I offer a creative approach to counselling and psychotherapy to explore what you long for and what you might be struggling with – combining talking with the opportunity to use art materials or work with images, body awareness and movement.

If you want to talk about these or any other challenges and concerns, I can offer you a welcoming space where you’ll feel seen and heard, understood and valued.

When you feel ready we can look at the things which you find difficult (even though it may be a bit scary). And I’ll support you as you begin to make the changes you want to see in your life.

Please call to arrange an initial conversation to discuss your situation and why you are considering counselling: 07545973595

THE WOUND IS THE PLACE WHERE THE LIGHT ENTERS YOU
-RUMI

I’m a qualified psychosynthesis counsellor with special interest in childhood trauma and existential crisis.

From my personal experiences came the need to understand and harmonise my condition. This inner journey soon transformed into a purposeful path where my suffering gained meaning and could be seen in a positive light. Great wisdom and beauty can come from suffering and I wish to be a guide to those willing to look closer to the difficult, painful or even destructive aspects of their personality.
I aim to create a safe space where one can learn to identify and understand the many aspects of their personality, focusing not only on the subconscious, but also on the superconscious realm of insight, inspirations and aspirations, working to create a harmonious environment both inner and outer.

During sessions I may also offer guided meditations, somatic movement, EFT (tapping) or make reference to numerology and astrology.

A personal crisis may signal that you’re on the threshold of a new way forward.

I provide client-focused, psycho-spiritual counselling and psychotherapy with adults at every stage of life. I work with a full range of client issues, from those that constellate around crisis to those that represent the challenge of awakening – particularly since these experiences are often connected.

As a therapist, I have experience in supporting people through key life events such as: fatherhood, life transitions and retirement, bereavement and grief, trauma and dissociation, and dislocation and belonging. I have also worked with people dealing with challenges of parenting in difficult circumstances, intimacy and sexuality, communication within relationships, depression and anxiety, and questions of gender and identity.

Many of these issues prompt feelings of distress in the form of emotional pain. No life is entirely free of suffering and seeking help often means transforming a painful issue into a new source of hope.

People also choose to work with me from the desire to deepen their connection with themselves and others, to gain a sense of inner authority and leadership, and to explore their creativity and find a greater sense of purpose. Many wish to discover more joy and meaning in their lives.

Sometimes we lose our way, lose our connection to our true ‘Self’

As a psychosynthesis psychotherapist, my aim will be to guide you back to living as you were meant to be.

By releasing the shackles of limiting behaviours and ideas that formed through your upbringing and environment, choices become available to bring about a more purposeful and meaningful life.

Therapy is a space for reflection – A time to explore

The way I work is creative and informal. Coming from a background of the arts, my interests span cinema, theatre,art, music and poetry; all of which inform the healing techniques I find most powerfully transformative.

I came to Psyhosynthesis through my own experience of ‘Dis-ease’ which gives me personal insight and empathy with the suffering of others.

BA (Hons) Fine Art/Art History, MA Psychosynthesis Psychotherapy, UKCP registered psychotherapist. Debbie studied Fine Art and Art History at Middlesex University prior to her qualification as a psychotherapist at the Institute and has continued to develop her creative arts projects alongside her psychotherapeutic work. She is a senior trainer and supervisor at the Institute and now includes energy psychotherapeutic methods in her practice and teaching. She has had a private psychotherapy practice in North London for over 20 years.

I work with individuals who are facing difficult relational dilemmas with significant people in their lives either personally or professionally.  This includes those who suffer as a result of living with an addict and/or alcoholic family member.

These dilemmas can feel overwhelmingly daunting and be the source of enormous stress and anxiety.  It is easy to lose a sense of ourselves and the positive sense of self-esteem that we once had.  We can feel trapped and as if life is something to survive rather than enjoy.

I offer a peaceful and confidential space for you to explore your dilemmas, to be positive and accepting of yourself and to find self-compassion for the suffering you’ve experienced.  This is a space within which you can reconnect to a sense of inner choice and create your own path to happiness and peace whilst respecting the choices of others who matter to you.

My name is Dolma Beresford and I offer psychotherapy and counselling in North London. I hold certificates in counselling, psychotherapeutic counselling and have a master’s degree in psychosynthesis psychology. I am both UKCP and BACP registered and accredited. 

If you’re searching for a therapist then it’s likely you are experiencing some kind of distress, discomfort or dissatisfaction. This could be for many different reasons, i.e. relationships, family matters, bereavement, loss, ill health, work worries. Equally, you may have no idea of a cause but just a feeling of emptiness or lack of purpose. Therapy is not only helpful for big traumatic life events. It can also help for times when you are at a crossroads or are feeling “stuck”.

Everyone goes through challenging situations, and while you may have successfully navigated other difficult periods in your life, sometimes you need a little extra support. Through therapy, you are given a safe and confidential place to talk over your difficulties with someone who is trained to help you and committed to supporting you.

Please feel free to contact me and we can have an initial conversation about whether therapy may be appropriate for you. This initial conversation can be face to face or via email or telephone. Whatever makes you feel most comfortable and makes that initial step feel less daunting.

Whatever you bring, a gentle exploration of the issues usually reveals a deeper picture that helps you to make sense of what is happening.

I really look forward to hearing from you.

Everyone has a story, a challenge, a problem or a difficulty that they want to address. Maybe you have something you need help exploring, overcoming, understanding or accepting.

The big secret is that you already have the tools to live an authentic and happy life, you may just be facing some challenges that make it hard to live that truth. Through our work together I can help guide you towards sustainable and meaningful change.

“You do not have to be good. You do not have to walk on your knees for a hundred miles through the desert, repenting. You only have to let the soft animal of your body love what it loves.”

Wild Geese | Mary Oliver

Therapy is a journey. We can choose to ignore that part of us that hopes for more in life and in many ways that’s the easier option. The therapeutic journey is not easy.  It can be extremely painful at times, but it can also help us to live again. Since you are reading this there is part of you that wants change, that wants to live in the way you once imagined. It’s not too late.

I can’t offer you a quick fix or answers to make you feel better.  You have all of those.  In fact, you already have all you need.  I can help you to connect more to yourself, which might mean working through some painful parts of your story, that may be known or as yet unknown. It won’t be easy, but I will stay with you, by your side, as long as it takes.
I offer a safe, confidential space for you to bring whatever you need to bring.  You decide at your own pace what you would like to discuss. It may take a little time before you feel ready, and that’s okay. The space will be reserved for you each week, and I will respect and encourage your inner wisdom. This is your journey.

If you want solutions from me and a quick fix, I can’t help with that. I believe in each individual, and that they know on some level what needs to be done. My aim is to connect you to this part of yourself that knows, the part that has always known, but may have got lost along the way. That part of ourselves that we remember from our earliest memories.

I practice in Sutton Coldfield face to face, or online if preferred during restrictions related to the Covid pandemic.  Please get in touch

Why coaching?

No matter how much we want a change, when it comes to making it happen, we are often the ones standing in our own way. So sometimes, we need outside help to see what we cannot see from the inside. Coaching can help you figure out how you really want to live your life and unlock your potential to make the change you want to see happen.

Why choose me as your coach?

I am passionate about driving positive and sustainable change in the world, be it in people or organisations.

I believe that everyone has the potential to do that and that it starts with taking the responsibility to change and better ourselves. Because how we are affects everyone around us. So we each have the power to create the world we want to see.

I work with professionals and aspiring leaders who want to live a more authentic and meaningful life, aligned with their purpose and become a powerful force for positive change in the world. Whatever you are seeking to manifest, I hope that working together will renew or give you a sense of purpose, direction and hope.

My approach

Whatever the context, my approach to 1:1 coaching is to create a safe space for you to pause and tune in to yourself. So you can reflect deeply about what is meaningful to you and get clarity on what change you want to make in your life. I offer a non-judgemental mirror so you can see yourself more clearly, without all the distortions or limitations shaped by your history and experiences.

Together, we will explore what really makes sense and matters to you, and help you find the answers within.

I am a professional counsellor and non-religious celebrant living and working in rural Scotland.

Prior to training as a therapist, I was a Steiner Waldorf teacher and writer. I came to Psychology by way of storytelling and I am Jungian at heart, transpersonal in practice.

I treat depression, anxiety, grief and spiritual crisis through right relationship within a therapeutic alliance. I strongly focus on integrating personality fractures by healing trauma. I’m good with grief. [And also despair.]

I see local clients in person at my office in West Kirk and I also work with people across the UK (and abroad!) via zoom.

Supporting and guiding you to make a change.
The psychological way.

Looking into therapy requires curiosity and courage, so thank you for being here, you’ve come a long way!

Your life might feel like a crisis now or you might be slightly yet continuously disappointed. You might struggle with the world’s troubles or with your intimate relationships. You might feel the urge to find yourself or a need for an honest and authentic conversation. Wherever you’re on your journey, I am here to be your travel guide and companion. Together, we can navigate your journey towards a freer life and a wholesome relationship with yourself and others.

‘Courage therapy’ is the term that I choose to describe my approach. It stems from the psychosynthesis, the school I belong to, and the experience and inspiration I have drawn from the years of therapeutiс practice and working with people. The word ‘courage’ comes from the Latin word ‘cor’, ‘heart’. Courage therapy is a manifestation of your free will. The will to see your power, to find oneness with the universe, to set yourself free from the demands of society and find your own ways to contribute to it. To experience the miracle of being yourself and being with others.

Some of the challenges that clients come to me with: personal, spiritual and relationships crisis, alcohol and drugs addiction, sex-related issues (dysfunction, chemsex, addictions, shame), a new diagnosis of HIV and living with HIV, destructive relationship with social media, surviving abuse, facilitation of group dynamics in critical settings.

My own journey includes over 10 years in the corporate world before starting in psychosynthesis. I have the experience of migration, overcoming addictive behaviours, troublesome relationships, abuse and spiritual crisis. I love designing spaces and travelling places. I love to love people and hope to see a world where more of us are free.

If any of this resonates with you, please contact me to set the time for our first conversation. I would be happy to accompany you on your journey.

I had excellent placements at

— Terrence Higgins Trust( Living with HIV and Chemsex issues)

I offer long and short term counselling and psychotherapy for individuals and couples in central London. I am UKCP Accredited and a Member of the BACP and hold both diplomas in counselling and psychotherapy and a MA in Psychotherapy and Counselling. I am in regular supervision for both individual and couples’ work with a Tavistock trained couples’ supervisor.

Psychotherapy and counselling are immensely helpful tools when life challenges us beyond what we feel we can cope with: the sudden loss of a job, the breakup of a relationship or the loss of a loved one. But even when we are not dealing with something as big as this and may simply feel adrift, as if life has lost its meaning, or like we are struggling to reconnect to a sense of enthusiasm either professionally or personally, psychotherapy and counselling can help us to understand what is going on and enable us to go beyond limitations set by old patterns which no longer serve us, so that we may evolve into a better version of ourselves.

My commitment to you is to provide you with a safe sanctuary in which we can work collaboratively, to transform times of crisis or stuckness into growth spurts, through which you become a more resourceful, self-directed, fulfilled and happier person.  I’ve been running a busy central London private practice for over 10 years and have had very successful outcomes in treating individuals with issues ranging from, anxiety, work stress, relationship problems, addiction, eating disorders, OCD, abuse, bereavement, loss of meaning, blocked creativity and a desire for personal growth and new direction in life.

As well as English, I speak Italian, French and Spanish and am happy to draw upon these with anyone for whom English is not their first language.

All of my clients are unique, with their own story to tell as they journey through life.

They experience challenges and ups-and-downs which can sometimes make their journey hazardous, sometimes painful – and sometimes they just feel lost and in need of a guide, or someone to talk to.

I work with clients helping them to build strong foundations for living in the here-and-now, enabling them to cope with the anxiety, depression, issues and traumas that life can bring; I work to increase awareness of the energies keeping clients trapped in patterns and thoughts stopping them from being their fullest self.

In this busy, fast-paced and sometimes hectic world, I offer a space where clients can pause and choose to step out of the tumult of the external world, and obligations to others, and take an hour to nurture their inner selves, to tune into their needs, their fears, unhelpful patterns or unresolved issues stoping them living their lives fully. A space where they prioritise their journey, their psychological well-being and their hopes and dreams. In doing so, they can return to the outer world refreshed and empowered.

I practise in South West London, in Balham/Tooting.

I am a supervisor holding qualifications from Revision and from the Institute of Psychosynthesis.

As a Psychosynthesis Psychotherapist and Psychotherapeutic Counsellor, I offer a safe, confidential and non-judgemental Psychosynthesis Psychotherapy and Counselling Service in Hendon, North-West London. I also offer on-line and telephone psychotherapy and counselling sessions. Sometimes life can be so overwhelming that we do not know how to cope or where to turn. Talking to a professional in confidence may help you to understand and acknowledge the feelings you are experiencing and enable you to begin to move forward in your life.
I offer a supportive and empathic therapy, focusing on you as a unique individual with your own experiences in a wide range of areas including low mood, relationship difficulties, stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, lack of confidence and feelings of worthlessness in addition to many other concerns. Often there is more than one reason why you might have a vague feeling of upset in your life.
The therapy that I offer is a gentle process that can help you restore your natural sense of harmony and balance. I offer you the time, attention and respect necessary to explore, discover and help you with your worries. I will encourage you to access your own resources and guide you to reach an understanding of your life enabling you to make the choices required towards your own greater Being.

This member has completed UKCP Covid-19 Online Working Guidance

I am a trainee therapist in supervision at the Institute of Psychosynthesis, University of Middlesex.

Within therapy, I hold that each of us is already enough and complete. And… we may be wanting different, more, for ourselves too.

I am a fully qualified and accredited psychotherapist and have worked in private practice for over 30 years with individuals, couples, groups and supervising other practitioners. I find it deeply rewarding to support people with their lives, work, relationships and in creating a lifestyle that has meaning and purpose for them. This involves finding healthy connection with ourselves, other people and with our community/world, expressing the values that matter to us.

I like to be an “allie” to my clients through life’s challenges and changes – of which there are many. I strive to give empathy, respect and a supportive professional relationship on which you can rely. Together we look at any patterns and obstacles from the past, also at who and where you want to be, developing skills and resources so you can move towards it.

I work with relationship issues with partners, family and friends, and with a range of difficulties you may encounter, such as coping with stress, anxiety, depression, loss and change. These are opportunities for us to grow and to learn to treat ourselves with compassion. We cannot always choose what happens to us, but we can choose to respond to it in the best possible way. I am here to walk with you through the difficult times and to help you do that.

Making change requires self-awareness and courage.

My aim is that every person who walks through my door is given the tools and conditions they need – not just to survive, but also to grow and thrive.

I am a psychotherapist working in private practice in Norwich, Norfolk.  I am also a stress management therapist and have been working with clients in private practice since 2001 as an Autogenic Therapist.  I normally work face to face but am able to work online or over the phone when meeting in person is not possible.

You might make the decision to come to therapy because a situation in life has arisen recently that is too emotionally difficult for you to handle alone.  Or there may be longer term issues or patterns of distress coming from your history which you have been unable to resolve. Therapy helps you to gain insight into long term patterns of distress, and thus you are helped to begin the process of change.  In your first session we will explore whether therapy is suitable for you or not, and then we will have a review after a few sessions before deciding to continue further. Each person’s needs are unique, so your own therapy is tailored to your own needs.

All sessions are strictly confidential.

A space to explore your needs.  Let’s find ways to live happier more productive lives.  In therapy we can make sense of our feelings, behaviours and daily challenges, so we can overcome them with confidence and understanding.  I am here to support you through this process.  Together we can create a safe space to explore your needs in a way that feels right for you.

Symptoms can appear to be isolated problems in their own right and so we often overlook their root causes.  Working to understand how your experiences inform your behaviour makes the symptoms more identifiable and in time, manageable.

You may be suffering with anxiety, depression, panic attacks, phobias, discontentment, patterns in your life that are holding you back; relationship difficulties, separation, divorce, family issues, children leaving home, death of parents, abuse, bereavement, trauma (ancestral, historical or recent), self-esteem (confidence and love for yourself), feeling sad, loss of identity, not knowing who you are, feeling lost for example.  These are all normal issues that we all face and are often not talked about and included as part of life.

Addressing symptoms and their causes helps create a more well-rounded version of ourselves.  By choosing therapy, you are making a gentle commitment to yourself to do this in a confidential, non-judgemental safe space.  I am here to listen.

I work with individual adults of all ages.  I offer a free initial telephone conversation which gives you the chance to ask me questions and for me to get a sense of what you might need.  There is no obligation, just a time for you.  The priority is for you to work with someone you can trust.

Therapy is an important healthy part of our lives, our inner world is just as important as our outer world – it is part of our health and who we are.

Alessandra holds a warm, calm, thoughtful, and non-judgmental space to explore, make a positive connection, and enhance wellbeing. She is passionate and committed to self-development. She focuses on developing awareness to explore clients’ relationships with themselves and others, becoming more reflective and authentic. Alessandra has a holistic approach to exploring personality, helping the client deal with dilemmas, conflicts, and patterns of behaviours that inhibit or prevent living life in meaningful and fulfilling ways. Her practice work on a sliding scale, she  tailors each client’s needs and cultural diversity.

In a safe and confidential place, I will listen with empathy and compassion to your life story and difficulties you are experiencing on your journey. Psychosynthesis counselling offers a way of connecting to your creative and unique self. As we all have learned to adapt to our environment, it takes courage to become aware of outdated patterns that don’t serve us anymore.  I work on the premise that we all have the capacity to heal our past to live our lives better. I will be with you in exploring how your feelings are impacted and help you to make different choices how you want to be in the world.

I practice from my home in North London. Contact me for an initial confidential consultation to explore what you want to work on and how we could work together. I offer negotiable rates for people on low income.

Psychosynthesis Psychotherapy & Leadership Coaching with Alex Boyle

What is Psychosynthesis?

Psychosynthesis is an advanced development of classical psychoanalytic, analytic, counselling and psychotherapeutic theory and techniques. Further, psychosynthesis broadens its vision to encompass the spiritual impulse common to all traditions, which leads the individual on in his or her quest for the unique meaning of their life and its ultimate fulfilment. Rooted thus in the mainstream classical approaches outlined above, psychosynthesis extends its field of endeavour to include techniques ranging through art, guided visualisation, dreamwork and imagination, sub-personality work and much more, so that each individual, in his or her own way, is offered an opportunity to re-evaluate their life and bring about change and personal growth, especially when:

• You want to become more at ease with yourself
• You are undergoing a major change in circumstances – for example, through illness, bereavement, employment or divorce
• You want to improve your relational skills or change relationship patterns
• You are experiencing various forms of stress or distress in your life
• You want to explore feelings of anger or depression
• You’d like to build self-confidence and self-esteem
• You are feeling a sense of isolation or meaninglessness in your life
• You are interested in your own personal growth and want to realise creative energies

Psychosynthesis, with its special focus on the development of human potential, aims to encourage people to acknowledge needs at all levels of being: this includes the health of the body, the emotions, the mind and the spiritual or transpersonal dimension. It recognises the influence of past events on the life of every human being and that each individual has a deeper centre of identity; it emphasizes each person’s potential for healing and growth and the individual’s capacities for choice.

Senior Executive and Manager Leadership Coaching

My coaching is based on the 5DL (5 Dimensions of Leadership) and GROW models for senior leaders, business executives and managers. For leaders to be effective quickly, they must be equipped with the right skills, knowledge and behaviours to enable them to lead their team and achieve their company’s business goals.

Drawing on my experience of over 30 years of a City career in fund management, equities analysis and business development and underpinned by my in-depth psychological training, I work with senior leaders to establish a plan of action enabling them to become effective and drive their business and personal goals forward more quickly. My coaching works with the individual’s personal mindsets and values, their relationships and how they operate within their work context.

For example, you may be:

• Taking on a new role or career change
• Implementing new strategy
• Resolving teamwork and management issues
• Encouraging wider collaborative processes across the organisation
• Seeking to improve employee engagement and their potential

I offer specific issue-based coaching – equipping you or your people to manage crucial or sometimes difficult conversations.

The qualities of leadership are explored and developed as we aim for realistic outcomes based on a series of 6 sessions held fortnightly over a 3 month period. These series can be extended to additional sets, if desired.

Qualifications and Training:

I’m a registered member of the Institute of Psychosynthesis and a member of its Training Faculty. The Institute is accredited by the UKCP through the AAP. I’m in supervision with the Institute of Psychosynthesis for its PG Cert in Leadership and Organisational Coaching. I have been a Chartered Fellow of the CISI for many years.

I am a therapist in training, offering low-cost, psychosynthesis counselling sessions in the centre of Edinburgh. I provide a gentle and non-judgemental space for us to walk together through whatever is present for you.

People often turn to therapy for a multitude of reasons, including current challenges, addictive behaviours, anxiety, emotional instability, relationship struggles, grief stemming from the loss of a loved one or significant life changes such as health or career shifts.

Working within the framework of Psychosynthesis provides a balanced and loving foundation from which to explore and integrate all of our parts. It is a holistic modality that considers body, feelings, mind and spirit.

Together, we can explore unconscious processes, giving meaning to the sub-personalities that shape your day-to-day interactions.

I am particularly interested in dream work, meditation, creative expression, spiritual exploration and working with archetypes & mediums such as tarot.

Qualified Psychosynthesis Counsellor, Accredited by National Counselling Society (MNCS) Registered Member with BACP (MBACP) and Trainee Member UKCP (Psychotherapy)

I offer face to face and online transpersonal therapy for students and adults specialising in trauma and anxiety.

Let’s introduce myself:  My name is Wim Verbeek. Since early 2022, I have been pursuing my MA in Psychosynthesis Psychology at the Psychosynthesis Institute in London. Psychosynthesis has come to mean more to me than just a method for coaching, counseling, or therapy; it is a way of life for me. In 1998, I completed my initial training in Psychosynthesis at the Psychosynthese Institute, which is now based in Hilversum, the Netherlands. I furthered my professional training as a Psychosynthese practitioner in Amersfoort, the Netherlands, at the Psychosynthese Academy, and since 2018, I have been operating my own practice in Amsterdam. In addition to individual counseling in my practice, I also facilitate a weekly psychosynthesis therapy group.

For me, working with clients in practice means embarking on a journey together, a journey towards a conscious and loving life. Psychosynthesis supports this process of learning to love again, making conscious choices, and fostering right relations—a Psychology of Love and Will.

Feel free to explore my website for more information, and please don’t hesitate to contact me for an informal introductory online conversation or to schedule an in-person meeting at the practice.

A bit about me

Hello, I’m Neil. I’m a psychotherapeutic counsellor and I offer a safe, comfortable, and confidential space in the heart of Leicester city. The space will be yours to share what’s going on for you and really be heard.

I’ve been a therapist for more than 3 years and a member of the BACP. I also have over 25 years of experience working in children and family social care. From this, I have gained significant insight into childhood and teenage trauma and its impact later on in life on how we see ourselves, how we see the world and how we behave in relationships with others.

What I can offer you

I am trained in an approach called Psychosynthesis. This unique approach uses a variety of techniques to help you overcome personal challenges, achieve a greater sense of self-awareness, and supports real personal growth.  As well as offering talking therapy, I use other effective tools including meditation, mindfulness, body/feelings work and creative art materials, if and when it feels right for you.

My practice is just above a coffee shop in Leicester where you can (if you wanted to) buy yourself a beverage before coming up to see me.

Psychosynthesis therapy is a soulful process – a way to tune into a wiser part of yourself which has answers. It teaches you that you’re enough; and you can grow, and live with more purpose and choice.

I’d love to help you explore the challenges you are going through and to harness your own inner resources.

I am a trainee therapist in supervision with the Institute. I’m also a hypnotherapist accredited with the IACT and an astrologer.

Please see my website http://www.elisabragg.com for detailed information and regular updates about my practice – thank you.

Chaya Khera creates a safe and supportive space allowing clients to explore and understand some of the factors influencing unhelpful patterns in their life. Whilst exploring deeper feelings can be painful and difficult, it can also be a source of relief and generate real change. In fact, it is at the heart of this process of collaboration that healing can take place.

As an empathic listener, Chaya supports each client to find a way beyond distress and towards discovering their deeper potential. Her core working philosophy is Psychosynthesis and she draws on the most appropriate methods according to the unique and specific needs of the client she is working with.

Having worked as a management consultant in the Financial Services industry for more than a decade, Chaya understands how the challenges of working in the corporate world can sometimes trigger addictive behaviours, anxiety, depression or even lack of purpose. Chaya also holds understanding and experience of the journey that involves relocating to a different country and is able to hold individuals who are struggling to develop a sense of self or identity.

She supports her clients in resolving a wide range of issues including anxieties arising from the past or in the present, childhood or more recent trauma, depression, relationship difficulties, family issues, bereavement, difficulties and stress at work, as well as spiritual crises.

I offer confidential, professional support in a relaxed and beautiful setting ~ exclusively for women. I work with whatever difficulties or challenges you may be facing, at a pace that feels safe and right for you.

Therapy sessions are 60 minutes, weekly, and cost £50.

I am a qualified counsellor and psychotherapist. Psychosynthesis has been described as ‘a psychology with a soul’, it recognises that each of us is on a journey through life that is both purposeful and meaningful, even though at times it can be difficult and painful. I am here to offer a sanctuary – some time for yourself in which to explore in depth what it is really like to be you.

I believe taking time out of our lives to step back and take stock is really important. I have been trained to help you explore your experience and will support and guide you to find new perspectives and direction.

I have practice rooms in both St Albans and Hendon, if you feel I can be of assistance to you please do not hesitate to call or email for a relaxed discussion about what you are seeking.

I am a Psychotherapist and Counsellor, UKCP registered. I offer weekly sessions in person and have a few spaces in my practice for clients at a lower fee rate.

Do you find yourself struggling to get through the day as a result of troubling situations or overwhelming experiences and issues?  It may be that you are feeling down or life seems tedious or you feel you can’t go on. Perhaps you feel distance or discomfort in relationships with others and would like to feel more connected and cared for? I offer a safe, sympathetic and confidential space for us to work towards relief from emotional pain and distress. I help you find new meaning in life.

I work with people who feel lost and who long to reconnect with themselves and others, mostly, when Will has been dampened by a difficult history of upbringing in their family and early social care environment. The consequences range from mild to severe disruption in development, unique to each person. Some develop addiction to substances, or processes, which damage self-esteem and erode confidence and belief in oneself.  However, new patterns can be reshaped and shifts to healthier ways of Being for the rocky road of life are possible. Within the therapeutic space we aim to develop your personal self as a container for the many elements that drive you and to uncover the spark of your spiritual Self that inspires you from within.

I have an MA in Psychosynthesis Psychology and the subject of my thesis established my special area of focus: finding transformation through trauma. Being an Iyengar Yoga teacher, working with the body comes naturally to my practice to connect with how our Beings somatise our psychological state.  Please see my profile on Counselling Directory for more detail about my practice, or the Psychotherapy page on my website.

Considering psychotherapy or counselling is a significant step in choosing to value and invest in yourself by feeling seen and thereby enriching your experience in the world. I offer an initial assessment session for us to discover what is troubling you and to explore how our working together may support the work of transforming your life.

I have worked with clients of all ages (18+) and walks of life. In fact, I’ve worked with people from all continents. I pride myself in this broad range of enriching client work which will be beneficial for you.

Please do not hesitate to contact me for a free 15 minute introduction video call. Your healing journey can begin today.
I offer bespoke Counselling in a lovely Pavilion. Walking Therapy is also a wonderful option. Fees are from £55 per 50 minute session once a week.

Warmest wishes,
Eleni

I offer one to one sessions for counselling and psychotherapy where I provide a safe space in which you may explore whatever is pressing for you. You may want to work on a particular issue or explore reoccurring experiences, patterns of behaviour or styles of relating. You may be suffering physically, psychologically or emotionally, and may need to express your concerns, fears and hopes. Perhaps you are searching for healing and wholeness, or are suddenly confronted with a crisis and are very anxious. Maybe you just need to talk, tell your story, and just be how you are without any need to be anything in particular for anyone. You may be curious about what it is you really value and wish to explore this.

I am fully committed to helping you resolve or dissolve your problems.

I am psychosynthesis psychotherapist and counsellor and I have been in practice since 2001. I trained originally at the Institute of Psychosynthesis in London. I was a faculty member at the Institute of Psychosynthesis and worked as a trainer, Right Relations group leader and course tutor. I am currently in private practise working in North London where I offer therapy, counselling and supervision. I am also a training therapist working with students from different training backgrounds.

My way of working is grounded in psychosynthesis and integrative transpersonal theory and is informed by several threads; Marion Woodman’s BodySoul Rhythms work with dreaming and the body, Authentic Movement and Somatic Experiencing. After completing the MA in Psychosynthesis Psychotherapy I went on to train with Jungian Analyst Marion Woodman and completed the Woodman Foundation Leadership Training Program in 2010. I work extensively with the labyrinth, as a metaphor, an archetype and as an embodied meditation practise and I am a Veriditas trained labyrinth facilitator.

I work with a wide range of issues and have a particular interest in exploring how to navigate life’s different thresholds and try to live more of who we really are, whilst also meeting the demands of daily life. 

Alongside therapy and supervision work I also facilitate groups and have been offering labyrinth retreat days, trainings and workshops since 2005. My group work weaves together Psychosynthesis, BodySoul rhythms, movement, working with myth and story, meditation and personal reflection and often includes a candlelit labyrinth walk. My workshop information can be found at http://www.journeyofthesoul.co.uk

“You can only lose something that you have, but you cannot lose something that you are”.                        – Eckhart Tolle

-Low-Cost Counselling-

A large majority of suffering is related to a disconnection to ourselves. Trauma makes us feel alienated, depressed, reactive and more. These symptoms are a sign of this disconnection. I offer a space where we can explore and re-enter connection with ourselves and life to feel empowered and content again.

As a trainee psychosynthesis therapist I am able to offer low-cost therapy. To name a few of the areas psychosynthesis can be helpful with:

• Struggles with purpose and meaning
• Anxiety
• Depression
• Bereavement
• Psychospiritual issues
• Low self-esteem/confidence
• Relationship struggles
  and more.

Please visit my website for more information and to contact me regarding an initial free phone call to see how I can assist you on your search for healing and wholeness.

I look forward to hearing from you,

Danny

I trained at the Institute of Psychosynthesis and graduated in 2001. I work with individual adults. I offer psychosynthesis psychotherapy and counselling, and also energy healing either in person or at distance. Most often these days clients like to have sessions which include both these elements, as energy healing can greatly speed up and enhance the benefits which can be felt from the counselling .

I have been practising psychosynthesis psychotherapy for over twenty years now. I continue to add skills often geared towards developing my work with energy – as I find this area increasingly fascinating, efficacious and rewarding.

As an accredited member of UKCP I work under the UKCP Code of Ethics and Practice. I am also a member of the APP ( Association of Psychospiritual Practitioners) .

Please see my website http://www.lighthealer.co.uk for more information about myself and my work.

“what lies behind & what lies before are tiny matters compared to what lies within us”

I am an experienced practioner and have been in private practice as a Psychosynthesis counsellor and UKCP (United Kingdom Council Of Psychotherapy) registered  Psychosynthesis psychotherapist for over 15 years.

The role of therapy and what in can offer you is varied and wide but generally I support people to understand, make sense of and move forward in their lives. Whether that involves overcoming addictions, dealing with childhood trauma, making their way through loss, finding meaningful love or attending to a feeling that life is painful, stuck, stagnant or blocked.

In addition to Psychotherapy I have an interest in the Body Mind and have trained as a Lifespan Integration Practioner.  This neurological approach / tool allows me to include the nervous system in my work.  Working with our most essential emotional regulation mechanisms to support safety, connection, balance, manageability and expansion so that each of us can become most fully who we are called to be.

People can come for as few as 6 sessions or stay for as long as it feels they need to make the changes they need. My practice is in North Manchester, 2 miles north of the city centre, easily accessible by car or public transport. I see people both in person and via Video platforms such as Zoom.

You’re warmly welcome to make contact to discuss the possibility of us working together.

After a longstanding career in music therapy, Peter trained as a psychosynthesis psychotherapist and 5DL coach at the institute of psychosynthesis, London.   Combining these aspects of therapy and creativity has been significant in meeting others in crisis.  Working with trauma, addiction  and dissociation involves many levels of our Being and approaches to the therapeutic relationship.  Peter is a singer, music improvisor and art lover employing these forces and mediums of expression in a soulful therapy experience in coaching or psychotherapy.

He has worked as a senior Music therapist for over twenty years with people who have autism, SEN and mental health and emotional health needs also working with people with dissociative identity disorder as a result of trauma.  These experiences brought him to train as a psychosynthesis psychotherapist at the Institute.

Alongside his music therapy work, working as a music therapy trainee supervisor, he has a
private psychotherapy practice in psychosynthesis psychotherapy and 5 DL coaching.  he is influenced by Kabbalah, soul therapy, music and the arts.

I am a qualified Psychotherapist, Psychotherapeutic counsellor, and leadership coach. UKCP accredited and BACP registered. My main experience is working with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, burnout and life changing events. As an ex-corporate professional working in high pressure, multicultural environments I have particular understanding of the main challenges faced when trying to balance work and personal life and live in line with your purpose and values.

MBACP Accredited

I offer individual and bespoke talking therapy through change, crisis, loss, bereavement, relationship and career challenges from a psychospiritual and holistic health perspective.

I am an established Counsellor, accredited with both BACP and NCS, with a background in mentoring and coaching, and I work with clients who really want to uncover meaning from the therapy process and greater understanding about their life that they can take forwards in possibly new directions.

My main interests lie in disordered eating and addictive behaviours, recovery from narcissistic romantic relationships, conflict in families, bullying at work and the debilitating effects of feeling stuck, lost or unable to access choice in your life.

I realise it takes courage to contact a counsellor and I therefore want to offer you the assurance that I take what I do very seriously and abide by the strictest code of ethics.

I find that my clients experience greater self realisation and positive change by working with me over a concentrated period of time but I do offer one off sessions for people to find out more and see if counselling will work for them.

I practice from home a mile outside St Albans in the village of Sandridge.  There is usually plenty of  free parking outside on the road.  I also offer remote counselling by Zoom and phone, and walking counselling in the many beautiful local woods and commons, weather permitting.

Hello and welcome. My name is Claudia Florentina Marjoram, I am a Psychosynthesis Counsellor in training (under supervision) with The Institute of Psychosynthesis in affiliation with Middlesex University. I am UKCP registered (UK Council for Psychotherapy).

From personal experience I know that it takes a great deal of courage to acknowledge to ourselves that we might need some help, that we no longer want to suffer and struggle to cope,  no longer want to just exist, but live a full life instead.

I work with my clients in a very integrative way, by this I mean that everything is welcomed in the therapy room, all of who you are, your experiences, your feelings, and your thoughts.

Together we will explore what is going on for you at this time and find a way back to happiness, peace, contentment and your own true Self. The starting point for my work is who and where you are right now, how you arrived at this place and who and where you could be. What limits you, what prevents you from reaching your true potential?

It is a great honour to witness and walk alongside another human being on their life journey. Counselling takes immense courage and commitment and I am offering myself as a fellow traveller, a guide to support, encourage, witness and above all hold you as you journey through the highs and lows, leading to lasting change and transformation.

I really look forward to hearing from you.

Hello, and thank you for dropping by.  I appreciate that looking for a counsellor can be quite confusing, given the huge range of choices available in this directory. I hope this section clarifies your questions about the issues and people I tend to work with.

What you might be struggling with:

Sometimes we can all feel a bit defeated. The demands of everyday life are already challenging enough. When you add to that either broken relationships, insurmountable work problems, or unhealthy coping mechanisms, it can all get a bit too much. No wonder our ability to manage or make sense of our issues becomes overwhelmed. When this happens, it’s normal to seek to withdraw from your usual routine and find a safe space to unwind, regroup and repair.

Dealing with career breakdown or unforeseen changes might make you feel insecure or fragile. Family life might be particularly stressful at this point, especially if you are a single parent. You might struggle to find the motivation to stay on top of your studies or university work. You might be seeking closure post-breakup or the ability to maintain a long-term relationship.

How you might be feeling:

You might wonder if anyone cares about you, but deep down, you long for a deeper connection. You might notice you attract emotionally unavailable partners, but you yearn to feel more valued, respected and cared for.  You might feel like the only responsible adult, but you often get crushed under the weight of responsibilities. Your self-care routine might be minimal, non-existing or replaced by comfort eating or substance misuse. You might criticise yourself for what you’ve done wrong or beat yourself up for not living up to your own expectations.

Your moods might be unstable, and your strength might wither away as you feel isolated, misunderstood or taken advantage of. You might often feel overburdened with guilt or worry or overwhelmed by the weight of your unresolved issues. Whatever you do, it never feels like it’s quite good enough..? Whatever you might be going through, there could also be an undercurrent of existential dilemmas about the meaning of life, happiness or your purpose that you find confusing or even terrifying.

How I can help:

I help my clients explore complex feelings and make sense of their suffering in a way that allows them to build inner security, regain trust in themselves, and establish clarity in moving forward.

My clients learn to practise assertive communication and establish healthy boundaries by gently processing old traumas and identifying their needs. This makes them feel hopeful and empowered again. They begin to build a sustainable attitude towards well-being and harmony in their life, inner and outer.

My areas of expertise revolve around the issues of low self-worth & self-esteem, high sensitivity, depression, anxiety, interpersonal conflict, attachment trauma and recovery from abuse.  I know first-hand what it’s like to feel unheard or missed by others, so I do my best to listen with care, compassion and curiosity to what’s happening in my clients’ lives.

How I work:

I work in a non-directive way, which means I do not take charge of what goes on in my sessions. Instead, I invite my clients to bring what matters to them, what feels alive in the moment, and we take it from there. I foster an environment of collaboration, open dialogue and self-responsibility. I empower my clients to implement realistic solutions, stay accountable for the changes they need to make and work at a pace that feels appropriate to their needs.

Who I tend to work with:

I tend to people who identify as caring and kind but struggle with overgiving and people-pleasing. They tend to be hard-working and driven but often come crashing down from exhaustion and excessive stress. I have experience supporting people in education, healthcare, social care, IT and management.

I also enjoy working with those passionate about personal development, such as psychology students or coaches. They have a strong drive to better themselves but often get caught in the trap of perfectionism and can be too hard on themselves. They usually benefit from self-forgiveness and setting realistic expectations.

I also work with spiritually or artistically inclined people who identify as intuitive, highly sensitive and interested in cultivating self-expression, mindfulness and inner peace. They often feel a strong calling to make a difference in our ailing world but are overwhelmed by its harsh demands. They need support in integrating their artistic or spiritual visions into everyday existence. I have experience working with photographers, tarot readers, dancers, environmental activists, and musicians. I am a writer myself.

I have experience working with people in the LGBTQ+ and polyamory communities. I believe in everyone’s right to be who they want to be and love who they feel to love. I particularly feel for the challenges of ex-pats and migrants since I am one myself. I have experience working with Spanish, Italian, Thai and Indian residents in the UK. I work with people of any colour or background, and I enjoy seeing international clients via Zoom. If the descriptions here don’t match you, but you still resonate with the issues described above, do not hesitate to get in touch.

Practical Information:

I work in person and online. My in-person treatment space is in a private residence in Nunhead, SE15 London. I mainly work with people seeking long-term counselling or therapy, so it’s important to establish whether you feel comfortable with your choice of working with me. You can do so by booking a free, no-strings-attached 20 min introductory call (phone or video) by filling out the intake form at the bottom of my website’s home page. I will aim to respond within 2-3 working days. http://www.bristenamantu.com

We all long for a connection in which we are never reduced or misunderstood. Therapy is a journey of self-discovery, through which we develop a deeper self-awareness, can recognise patterns and make kinder, more positive choices for ourselves and those around us. By bringing awareness and understanding to what is causing us pain or problems, we can learn to move away from self-defeating patterns of survival and towards a new future aligned with our inner integrity.

Psychosynthesis is a transpersonal psychology that works holistically, nurturing synergy between all parts of your personality, enhance introspection, build ego strength and foster resilience. Instead of a pathologizing psychology, psychosynthesis is kind and empathic before it is probing and analytical. Keenly aware that symptom is a message to be understood rather than an obstacle to be removed, I hold an attitude of respect and a committed interest for the being of the client, the unique and mysterious nature of the other.

Having had a career in finance in London for over 10 years, I am currently training at the Institute of Psychosynthesis towards a diploma in Psychosynthesis Psychotherapy. I am a registered trainee psychotherapist with UKCP and adheres to its Code of Ethics and Practice.

Location: Cardiff.         As well as seeing clients face-to-face, I also offer online therapy.

At times we may experience difficulties where we feel stuck or overwhelmed, or periods of unhappiness or anxiousness that doesn’t allow us to feel we are freely making decisions and acting to our true selves. I can support you to find meaning and purpose in your life and learn to have a healthy relationship with yourself and others, and identify your true potential.

I am a qualified accredited psychosynthesis psychotherapist (UKCP Registered) experienced in individual and group therapy. I have worked as a therapist at Priory Roehampton and Priory North London and more recently as a part of the therapeutic team setting up Priory’s new residential clinic in Mill Hill London.

I have experience of working with a wide range of concerns, including: childhood trauma, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem and addictive behaviours.

My approach encourages personal growth by promoting change within the individual and bringing together different dimensions of the whole: the behavioural, cognitional, emotional, volitional and spiritual.

Each of my clients brings their own personal journey with their own unique set of challenges and potential. I work with helping my clients to not just manage the difficulties they face, but to help them release the energy that is locked in old patterns and habits, originating in their history, in order to transform their lives and realise their potential.

I am originally from New Zealand and lived in London for 17 years before moving with my young family to Stroud. My practice is in Westbury-on-Trym in Bristol.

I am a group facilitator and trainer at the Institute of Psychosynthesis in London.

I am a fully qualified psychotherapeutic counsellor with several years of experience.

I am a member of UKCP and abide by its code of ethics.

Psychosynthesis practitioner, facilitator and guide. I began my professional career as a practising lawyer but branched out into other interests while living abroad with my husband and children. A ‘spiritual awakening’ in Indonesia eventually led me to train in psychosynthesis and from that time I have committed to a deepening of my experiential understanding of ‘Self.’ Since qualifying as a psychosynthesis psychotherapist in 2005, I have added energy therapy, Mindfulness practice and a training in supervision to my portfolio. Nowadays I balance a career in novel-writing with family life, and a thriving private practice in Penn (near High Wycombe), Buckinghamshire. I have a particular interest in the creative process, and use of the imagination in therapeutic healing.

I am a Psychotherapist, trained with the Institute of Psychosynthesis in London. I offer confidential, safe space for the exploration of your inner world; an opportunity to clear the path towards living life as the fullest version of yourself. Each individual is a unique being. I consider it a privilege to  accompany you on your journey of unfoldment.

It sometimes takes a crisis for us to take the first step into therapy, or you may already have experienced therapy and wish to go deeper in your process. Whatever your reason, it is my genuine sense that the depth and hope psychosynthesis offers, together with energy psychology techniques in which I am also trained, offer a powerful combination for the journey back to your essential self.

Since 2004 I have worked extensively within the areas of trauma, anxiety and chronic conditions, where by using the body and energy systems, the effects and symptoms held within are released. I am also an accredited trainer and supervisor within the field of energy psychology and EFT.

I work in-person in north London and on-line.
