Andrew Kitching

I am an experienced psychotherapist currently working from consulting rooms in Belgravia & Chelsea, London, and work with adult clients from varying backgrounds. In my previous career as a senior executive in newspaper and media organisations in the US and UK, I worked with highly creative individuals and business people alike. This specialist knowledge of the creative and business worlds informs my psychotherapy work as well as familiarity with mid-life/career transitioning, divorce/separation, drink/drug dependency, boarding school syndrome and the attendant depression, stress and anxiety this can evoke.

Dr. Heather Sequeira

Dr Heather Sequeira is a Chartered Consultant Psychologist with a distinctive focus on trauma, OCD, and the affective intelligence that often lies beneath psychological distress. With over two decades of clinical and academic experience, she integrates lived insight with evidence-based practice to challenge narrow diagnostic thinking and expand how we support complex mental health. She has a special interest in helping men.

Heather is the founder of PTSDTraumaWorkshops, a BPS-approved training platform for psychologists and CBT therapists, and an Honorary Research Fellow at the University of Birmingham. She also works clinically within the NHS and contributes widely to national media, including BBC Radio 4, The Guardian, Sky News, and the World Service.

A former Senior Research Fellow at the University of London, Heather’s work bridges neurobiological, relational, and experiential understandings of trauma and OCD. She advocates for treatment models that not only reduce symptoms but attend to the meaning, sensitivity, and deep emotional processing many individuals bring to therapy.

Sometimes life can feel small. You might feel stuck in a way of thinking or living that no longer fits. Or something may have happened that’s changed how you see everything.

If this sounds familiar, I can help. I offer a safe, confidential space to talk things through and understand yourself better. I came to this work because I believe people don’t need to stay stuck in the situations they find themselves in.

I’m a fully qualified, BACP-registered therapist, trained in psychodynamic and trauma-informed therapy. I work with people 18+ on issues including trauma, sexual assault, addiction, bullying, boarding school, family relationships, domestic abuse and LGBT+ concerns.

I will be real with you. No nonsense just a down to earth approach.

I will gently challenge to see what’s REALLY going on.

I don’t just ask ‘how does that feel?’ I help you explore issues with the purpose of achieving change and a better future.

As an Integrative Counsellor, I tailor therapy to each client, as well as talking therapy, I draw from a diverse toolbox of techniques, such as CBT, EMDR and hypnosis. Having completed training specific to trauma and trauma-informed approaches, I am confident in my skills to scaffold clients while they learn ways to overcome obstacles, develop coping skills, and enhance their overall well-being. Through collaboration with my clients, they can explore concerns, build resilience and cultivate positive lasting change.

Ben Selby

Hello, I am an integrative therapist, working with a variety of men’s issues; anything from anger management through depression and anxiety, to self-esteem and childhood issues. It can be hard for us chaps to reach out sometimes, and understanding that, I work with patience and compassion to draw the issues from you at your own working pace.

Therapy can be an exciting and rewarding process. It can also be hard, and challenging. I am here to help you to become the best version of yourself.

I have a specialist interest in trauma and the development of personality. I take an integrative approach to therapy, including the use of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT) and Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR).

Alice Jackson

In my approach, I place importance on exploring the root cause of the problem and provide an affirming therapeutic space to facilitate change. A therapeutic relationship that is accepting and non-judgmental makes space for growth and healing. Psychotherapy and counselling invites an exploration of challenging past experiences and focuses on processing the feelings we hold as a result of these experiences. At the heart of our work together we will seek to understand our emotions and work alongside them. As we work through the foundations of patterns, behaviours, and feelings in a safe and supported environment, we gain greater insight into ourselves, this is where we can make significant change.

Mr. Shane Sneyd

I offer counselling and psychotherapy to individuals (young people/adults) who may have identified specific personal difficulties and/or want to understand more about themselves in order to allow choice, change, and movement in life.

I work with a number of issues, ranging from anxiety, depression, OCD, relationship problems, and personality disorders. My aim is to work with the person rather than the diagnosis.

Jimi Katsis

Specialise in Adult survivors of childhood trauma and also a particular specialism supporting men who are experiencing distress due to a break-up when children are involved.

Dr. Matthew Ireland

Do you feel like you’re performing your life instead of living it? Maybe everything looks fine on the outside, but inside you feel anxious or uncertain – without knowing exactly what you want to change, or why. You’re not alone in feeling this way.

I help men explore the deeper questions behind their identity, relationships or life struggles – not just what’s happening, but what it means to them – so they can reconnect with themselves, make clearer choices and move from acting in life to authoring their future. My approach is warm and respectful, so you can be honest without fear of judgment. You’re welcome to book a free intro call – no pressure, just a chat.

Mrs. Nawar Sourij

I’m a relational integrative psychotherapist. I integrate CBT, psychodynamic, TA, Gestalt, and neuroscience.
