Ruth Mark-Roland Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Post Grad Diploma in Psychotherapy, Foundation and Diploma in Group Analysis
**Ruth Mark-Roland | Psychotherapist (London & Online)**
**Specialising in LGBTQ+ identity, trauma, relationships, and chemsex support**
Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected—from others or from yourself? You might be questioning your identity, navigating sexuality, or struggling with patterns in relationships that feel hard to change. For some, this can also include challenges around sex, intimacy, or chemsex.
I’m Ruth, a registered psychotherapist offering a warm, non-judgmental space where you can explore what’s really going on beneath the surface. I work particularly with gay men and others within the LGBTQ+ community, including those navigating identity, relationship difficulties, loneliness, and complex experiences around intimacy, connection, and substance use.
My approach is relational and collaborative. We work at your pace to understand recurring feelings and behaviours, process difficult experiences, and build a stronger, more grounded sense of self. Therapy with me isn’t about quick fixes—it’s about meaningful, lasting change.
I can support you with:
• LGBTQ+ identity and sexuality
• Relationship difficulties and intimacy challenges
• Chemsex and sexual health concerns
• Trauma and childhood experiences
• Anxiety, depression, and low self-worth
• Loneliness, disconnection, and belonging
• Creative blocks and life transitions
Alongside my clinical training, I bring a background in the design industry and a strong commitment to inclusivity, creativity, and cultural awareness.
**Sessions:**
• In-person in Central London (W1)
• Online across the UK
I offer a free 15-minute consultation so you can get a sense of whether we’re a good fit.
You don’t have to work this out alone—feel free to get in touch.

Lisa Sanfilippo
Therapist, MA, MSc, UKCP, MBACP
Within the space of online therapy, we can connect deeply and see great shifts. We can address not only thoughts and feelings, but patterns of communication and somatic (body- related) aspects of therapy effectively and safely. While you may prefer to meet in person, the option to meet online via Zoom (or your preferred platform) means that if you feel drawn to working together you're not limited to being within travel distance of London. Online flexibility can also work beautifully if you travel regularly travel for work or for personal reasons, or have health or accessibility challenges.

Benjamin Marr
Counsellor/Therapist, BA MA Relational Psychotherapist/ Birkbeck College - Psychodynamic Counsellor
My clients consider these facets of my relational psychotherapy to be important and effective resources for the support they are seeking and have fed back to me high levels of satisfaction with this branch of my practice. Naturally, online psychotherapy is not appropriate for everyone, but it has shown effectiveness in a number of important situations. For example, issues involving recovery from various addictions have benefited from online therapy, especially in cases where the client might wish to overcome any attitude to regularly attending traditional face-to-face and one-on-one supportive psychotherapy sessions.
Obviously, the convenience element is a major factor for clients and I have endeavoured to put into place as robust an I.T. structure as appropriate for the privacy and security of all clients.
I am a Registrant on the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy's (BACP) Register of Counsellors and Psychotherapists, under Registration number 383789 and an Individual Member of the BACP, under number 00525107.

Psykhe Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, MACP
Video counselling offers a secure and convenient alternative to in-person sessions. It allows you to connect with your therapist face-to-face through a private video platform, from the comfort of your own space.
This option can be especially helpful if you have a busy schedule, live outside our local area, or prefer the flexibility of meeting without the need to travel. It also provides continuity of care when in-person sessions wouldn't be an option. Many clients find video sessions just as effective and meaningful as in-person therapy.

Mandy Randall-Gavin MBACP, UKATA
Counsellor/Therapist, BA Hons, Dip TA Prac: UKATA
When you can’t meet in the room for any reason, online therapy is an effective way to work on yourself, providing you have a private space, where you won’t be overheard or interrupted. Headphones may help too, to keep the conversation confidential. I use Zoom which is a secure and encrypted platform for us to meet. Once we’ve agreed a time to meet online, I’ll send you an invite via email. All you need do is click on the sent link to join the session. You’ll sit in a virtual waiting room and from there, I’ll admit you. I’m looking forward to meeting you soon.

Strength is found in opening to one’s fear, one’s inner darkness. When you discover the wisdom and intelligence of the heart, you uncover the potential to stay open to the new and to the unknown and to transform.

Beth Jackson Counselling and Coaching
Counsellor/Therapist, BA (hons), Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling
I am a person-centred psychotherapist. I work online and face to face. I help people who are challenged with anxiety, depression, panic attacks, self-esteem, trauma & PTSD, relationship issues (couples therapy), ADHD and bereavement. As well as general mental and emotional health support, I also specialise in these areas: anxiety, self-esteem, and relationship counselling.
All of us at some point in our lives will experience unexpected challenges, emotional discomfort or overwhelming difficulties. It might be in relation to your partner, or parenting your children, or getting clear about what you really want to be, do and have. It might be about work or about fitness, friends, or finances (or perhaps a combination of many of these). And that’s when it makes sense to stop. To focus on your choices (because we all have them). And to borrow a brain for a session or two (or several) and experience what a difference that can make – and often faster than you think.

Empowered Wellbeing, Decolonizing Intersectional and Integrative Complex Trauma & Dissociation Recovery Support
Life Coach, view my credentials online at: www.recoveringfromwithin.com/credentialslongform
We have 14 + years of experience supporting folks with Decolonizing Intersectional and Integrative Complex Trauma & Dissociation Recovery. We recognize dehumanization and exploitation are part of a capitalist ideology and colonial and imperial strategies and abuses are perpetrated by people affected with that mindset, and can take the form of abuse within the family, the workplace, groups, and other relational dynamics where power over may be abused/misused to transgress. We recognize when violence is happening anywhere to one being, it is likely happening elsewhere, so we only work with people committed to anti-oppression and ending abuse and subjugation everywhere! We are skilled and certified in complex trauma work, parts work including: TIST - Trauma Informed Stabilization Treatment (Janina Fisher's Work), IFS -- Internal Family Systems; trained in IPNB, Bonnie Badenochs Dyadic Parts Work, EFIT, SensoriMotor... Certified in Somatic and Creative Trauma Recovery Support and Intersectional and Social Justice Frameworks, Multi-generational/historic trauma and wisdom Support, Attachment Theory, Mindfulness, Polyvagal Theory, SSP, CranioSacral -- please see our listing at Upledger Institute, distance TCM, herbalism and homeopathy support, Relational/Mediation/Partners/Couples work certification, Energy Work, Sidereal Astrology integration as asked for, and Integrated Ethnotraditional Healing Ways. We have also completed the two year fellowship for Functional Psychiatry through Psychiatry Redefined and review ISEAI and NORMI info, so we integrate support for folks with mold and some other environmental toxin impacts. We receive referrals and are also glad to coordinate healthcare with other professionals if requested by the client. We are trained in herablism of different cosmologies and have supported people who work with others in integrity with plant medicine. We do not administer medicine journeys -- though we have extensive background in supporting people to prepare and to metabolize/integrate afterwards. We have extensive experience helping people recover from Narcissistic Trauma, Workplace/Institutional Bullying, Poverty Trauma -- we only work with people who are committed to ending violence and brutality everywhere. We recognize if power over abuse is happening to one person, it's likely happening to many elsewhere in the world, or even close by, and every one person's recovery is part of pushing back on and ending systemic violence. So the individual and systemic recovery must happen together.
Our specializations are support for CSAS -- Adult Survivors of Childhood Sexual Abuse, Survivors or folks currently enduring narcissistic or bullying trauma, Survivors of colonial trauma, and often underserved POC/GM folks. We are a WOC/GM practice. We have a strong record for working with people with intensive DID, DDNOS and other undiagnosed dissociation, CPTSD and trauma survivor experiences and feelings -- very welcome here, as long as folks are committed to healing within a movement of standing for all being's right to dignity and self determination.
We are a Decolonizing Oriented and Intersectional Framework Practice prioritizing care for those who are systemically impacted and those who are active bystanders and activists. Red lines are red lines -- no excuses for perpetration. That said, if people are on the journey to ****actively (not just hypothetically or theoretically) repair, be an engaged and active bystander and not enact hegemonic violence with strong commitment, we are here to support that journey.
