Lisa Sanfilippo
Therapist, MA, MSc, UKCP, MBACP
Even if you start therapy to help you out of a dark or difficult time, it is a great gift that you give to yourself. We learn a great deal about ourselves, about others and ultimately about living life with more ease and enjoyment. We will sit together and get curious about what you learnt growing up and in your life to date that created your world-view, your assumptions and even your bodily responses to the situations you face today. We'll find the ways you manage your world that work for you, and where they are causing pain or limiting you. We will find your best ways to unblock and release those old patterns, and learn about the new ways of seeing and being that work for you.
Together we come to understand your personality, your responses and even what you might call your soul-nature. I work with an integrative palette of approaches and tools, and share them with you in our conversations. A good deal of our work will involve working with how the thoughts and emotions land in our physical selves and our nervous systems.

Hello, I'm Claudia, a qualified transpersonal Psychotherapist based in Bounds Green, London. Specializing in individual and couples therapy, my approach is founded on warmth, authenticity, and a keen focus on interpersonal relationships. I utilize Terry Real's Relational Life Therapy (RLT) framework in my couples therapy practice, offering structured yet empathetic guidance to help you achieve a balanced, healthier relationship.
I am particularly interested in the role that interpersonal connections play in overall well-being. A good relationship can serve as a cornerstone for a fulfilling, happier life, and I specialize in addressing challenges that hinder such connections, including codependency, attachment styles, and love addiction.
In addition to my broad client base, I possess specific expertise in serving individuals from creative and academic backgrounds, such as those in the fields of fashion, music, media, and academia.
If you're facing relational challenges or simply seeking to enhance the quality of your interpersonal relationships, I am here to provide expert, tailored support. Let's explore how we can build a better emotional future together.
