‘Something incredible happens when you open up to another human who you click with and who is trained to listen and support.’
The way I work is flexible. I meet you as an individual and will accept you exactly as you are, and try to see the world through your eyes. I will listen to you, really hear you and will be as genuine as I can, offering you time and space to find the answers you are looking for. I will not judge or critique you, tell you what to do, think or say, or who you should be. I will always meet you with unconditional positive regard, helping you to explore and navigate towards new insights and perspectives which can bring about a better way of relating to yourself, others or situations which you may find challenging.

We do what we do in life because of how we feel. When we’re happy, we think happy thoughts and feel buoyant, and are resilient and flexible. When we feel bad inside, we may become angry and resentful, or collapse in on ourselves, or worry about everything. Changing how we feel is not an easy task, because it is a manifestation of so many fundamental inner processes: how we talk to ourselves in our head, how we process and make sense of what happens to us, and how we feel about ourselves. Change, thus, comes from within; from delving into who we fundamentally are, facing what’s inside, and learning to relate to ourselves in a new way, so that we actually enjoy being alive. I am here to help you with that journey.

My work delves into issues such as shame, pressure to conform and the inability to connect with yourself, your body, and your emotions. I usually work with men at the intersection between race, neurodiversity, social class and faith who may feel that they are different, unable to be themselves, or are dissatisfied with themselves or with their lives.
I am quite open and easy to talk to, and I think I do well with men who are nervous about coming to therapy, who find it hard to open up or who have unusual issues that cause them shame.
I am a UKCP-accredited psychotherapist with a first degree in psychology and a doctorate in existential psychotherapy.

Mr. Richard Whitenstall
I am a Gestalt Counsellor (regsitered with BACP) and started seeing clients in 2013. This was through placements at Hampshire charities No Limits (young people) and Cruse (bereavement). From 2017 to 2019 I set up and ran a counselling service with London charity Positive21 (HIV). I am co-author of “Strength to Talk” which is dedicated to men’s mental health with all proceeds going to the charity Mind.
Anyone interested in counselling can have a free consultation session (30mins) to ask any questions and check that we could make progress.
After that I work online via “Psychology Today Sessions” (encrypted video service) each session lasts 50 minutes.
The model I use is Gestalt/Humanistic theory.

Ms. Vauna Beauvais

Hi, I’m Vauna. You can see me for online sessions on Zoom, from 10 am to 10 pm (UK time) on weekdays. I specialise in psychotherapy for neurodivergent adults (autism, Aspergers, dyslexia, dyspraxia, dyscalculia, alexithymia, PDA). I also help people experiencing anxiety, low self-esteem, lack of motivation/performance, difficulties in relationships, workplace issues, and lack of direction. I can also provide coaching for executive functioning improvements (organisation, planning, achievements). You do not need to have a diagnosis of anything. If you feel that you’re different, that’s all that’s needed to know that you are in the right place, with a professional who can understand and work with you to get your life the way that you want it.

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.
Book a free 20-minute call to see if we’re a good fit.

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.

I’m Dr. Livia, a clinical psychologist, and I’ve been in clinical practice for 23 years. I’m passionate about helping people to overcome obstacles and becoming their best versions. Modern life poses immense challenges on mental health and deciding to go for therapy can feel scary, especially for men, as society pressures men to perform and keep it together under pressure. But it doesn’t have to be like that!
I’m here to put you at ease and support you during your healing journey. I also have a lived experience of panic disorder, anxiety and depression and have done loads of therapy myself. Reach out for a complimentary 15 min discovery call and learn how I can help. Approaches: ACT, CBT, CFT, REBT.

I understand that each individual’s journey is unique and therapy should reflect this.
