Saffron Marriner
Counsellor/Therapist, MBACP (Accred)
My name is Saffron. I am an accredited member of the BACP and have been practicing as a counsellor and psychotherapist for twenty years both within an agency setting as well as within my private practice, where I offer face to face, online, telephone and walk and talk appointments. I have worked with clients across the age range of 16 up to and past the retirement age. The service that I offer welcomes people from all backgrounds in a way which is non discriminatory and supportive. Counselling offers an opportunity to process personal challenges and difficulties within an environment that is supportive and confidential. At times this might include discussing painful and uncomfortable thoughts, feelings, emotions. You are not alone with this as many people experience these at different points of their lives. When this is happening it can be hard to remain in a positive and focused frame of mind. Sometimes people feel overwhelmed and feel unable to continue to cope in the way that they usually could with their life on a day to day basis. One of the ways that counselling can help is by providing a space to process personal, behavioural and relationship issues in a safe and confidential way with a qualified professional. My role is to support you with this process in a way that is non judgmental, free from criticism or giving advice as to what I believe is the right thing for you to do. By working together in this way I am there alongside you as you find your own answers in a way that is right for you as we are all individual and unique and what is right for one person may not feel right for someone else. Of course you don't have to tell me everything about yourself and your life if you are not comfortable with this however you may find it beneficial to be as open and honest as you are able to be.

A client once said to me: "The feeling of the weight being lifted off my shoulders after each session was noticeable to those around me, and my whole outlook and ability to cope with life has improved. I started out in a very bad place, and it was clear to see... that I have come a long way."
Using a combination of both Counselling and Hypnotherapy, amongst other techniques and strategies, I help my clients to manage and overcome symptoms of anxiety, stress, and depression. My intuitive approach, and unique hypno-counselling style, can help you gain clarity, insight, and perspective, and align yourself with your potential.

Valentina Olper
Therapist, MSc
Something brought you here. Maybe it’s a pattern you keep repeating in relationships. Maybe it’s a feeling stored in your body that words alone haven’t reached. Maybe it’s the sense that something from your past is still shaping your present. I work with people ready to look honestly at their inner world — with curiosity rather than judgment. Together we decode what your emotional landscape is telling you, and find your way back to yourself. If any of this resonates — I would love to meet you.
I work in English, Italian and Spanish, in person in London (E5) and online worldwide.

Claire de la Varre
Therapist, PhD, HGDipP
If you are feeling overwhelmed because of illness, relationships, or other challenges in your life, therapy can help break things down into manageable pieces. When you work with me we will not only talk things through, but I will help you listen to the messages that your body is sending, and we can tackle your issues in an intentional and appropriate way. If you want to change harmful behaviours like smoking, drinking, or binge eating, I have well-tested programs that help with those issues. If you are prone to anxiety or depression, I can help you tap into your own inbuilt resources to get your emotional needs met and things will look very different. If you have unwanted habits like nail biting or doom scrolling, or just want to develop new healthy behaviours like exercising and eating right, I can help!
I treat you as the individual that you are, with your own thoughts, feelings, emotions, physical symptoms, hopes and dreams. I also look at the relationships, families and communities you belong to, and how these contribute to your daily wellbeing or affect your struggles.
I offer the Human Givens approach (the nine emotional needs), hypnotherapy (I have 18 years' experience), and Advanced Integrative Therapy (AIT) which is an energy psychology. My goal is to help you build emotional resilience, self-confidence, and encourage clear thinking. I provide materials, like mp3 recordings and handouts, to support you and reinforce the therapeutic work between sessions.
