John Castleford
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, mARCHTI
Many therapists focus on what is "wrong" and use 'referring issues' as the starting point. However, current best practice strongly suggests that personal introspection, guided or not, tends to keep the pain of the past very much in the present. If you want to focus on what is adversely affecting you, what better way to keep the brain tuned in to it is staying focused on it. I base my approaches on the very latest findings from neuroscience, and my starting point is often the time when you were at your best, and experiencing high points in your life: by recalling those we not bring great memories into our present focus but we also recreate those wonderful feelings we felt at that time. So, just as you do your best work when you are at the top of your game, focusing on positive rather than negative feelings from the past is a great place to begin work. Just ask yourself if you make your best decisions when you are feeling low. Now compare that to when you have been so buoyed up that you feel all but unstoppable.
Most people aren't 'broken'. But they may be side-lined or undermined. Or held back, Stuck, or otherwise constrained by a mismatch between expectations/aspirations and how you feel. The logical bits of the brain don't always align with emotions and feelings.
Maybe external circumstances have contributed to persistent low mood. Perhaps your self-esteem took a nose-dive, or you find it hard to cope, or don't feel you're in control anymore.
Our thoughts often control us, and our feelings -- and our behaviour often depends on how we feel. So do our thoughts and the associated feelings prevent us from becoming the best version of who we could (and should) be? Are your thoughts stopping you from being the best version of who you could be? I suspect it probably wasn't always like this. I
f I can't make you feel better about yourself within 15 minutes then I don't deserve to work with you.
Why not let me use my academic background (degrees in anthropology, and a degree in education) as well as decades of experience in psychological support, coaching, education, and psychotherapy to help you?
As well as general issues, such as low mood, phobias and traumatic experiences, I also specialise in existential therapy and have an extensive background in the philosophy of Stoicism [not the unemotional/stiff-upper-lip Mr Spock version] on which Albert Ellis' REBT and Aaron Beck's CBT both based their therapeutic approaches.
I draw on a broad background in academia, teaching (secondary and higher education), anthropology, philosophy, neurology and psychology which I update continuously. I suspect Neurology and Psychology are boring through the proverbial mountain towards each other but they are still some distance apart. So insights from both are useful. I feel the therapeutic professions tend to over-label conditions too readily and that often means their clients identify with the label. I have a wide range of theoretical orientations and can utilize specialist modalities and interventions that are appropriate for the client. I list specialties below and also include testimonials that describe outcomes that speak more eloquently than any personal statement.

Lakis Elezoglou
Psychologist, Psychologist (Merit), Positive Thinking Counsellor (Excellent), Biomedical Scientist (BSc. - Hons), Pharmacy (MSc. - Distinction)
Empathy is a very critical skill, hard to master; especially in conjunction with low fees. I care about you and your concerns. I, becomes You and You, becomes I. After years of working on myself (and still am), I offer my guidance.
From an early age, I was interested in the body's function as a whole, so that I could offer my help as much as possible, and as effectively as possible, together with empathy. Hence, I studied Biomedical Science, did a Master's in Pharmacy, studied Psychology and Positive Thinking Counselling, and at the same time I offered my help to friends, relatives, schoolmates and colleagues, before I became a professional therapist.
With the implementation of easy and straightforward techniques, I tackle issues such as anxiety, fears, performance issues (sports or otherwise), low self-esteem, low self-confidence, bad habits and dilemmas you come across in life.
I offer more than just therapy! A way of life!
Wherever you are in the world, I am here to help!
There is no reason to hesitate. Feel free to contact me for more! Please, email or text, and bear in mind that I only offer online counselling at the moment. Meetings in English or Greek.
Thank you!

Gordon Wax BA HONS MBACP
Counsellor/Therapist, Pschoanalytic psychotherapist
Hi, my name is Gordon. Welcome!
I’m am an experienced and fully qualified therapist, working both online and in person. I was born and raised in London. Personal therapy helped me to untangle my relationship with myself and my emotions.
The world alone is a chaotic place to manage our own unknowns, anxieties, and traumas. I understand that everyone experiences the world in different ways, so unique problems require bespoke responses.
Our lives are constantly creating new beginnings, change, and endings, so it’s natural to feel emotions strongly, think differently and respond atypically. I help clients explore all spheres of their life to help them build hope and to cope.
