Anna Dafna
Psychologist, MEd, BEd, QTS, GMBPsS, ADHD & Executive Function Coach Accred, Leadership, Somatic & Polyvagal Cert
I’m an ADHD and executive function coach, mentor and psychologist (GMBPsS) working with neurodivergent adults, professionals and students who want to understand how their mind and nervous system actually work.
My approach goes beyond surface-level productivity strategies. We work with the whole system - brain, body and identity - so you can develop clarity, emotional steadiness and sustainable ways of operating.
Many people with ADHD know they are intelligent and capable, yet everyday life can feel harder than it should. Together we translate your natural thinking style into practical structure, stronger self-trust and consistent progress.
My work integrates executive function coaching, nervous-system awareness and identity development so change happens from the inside out, not just through temporary motivation.
Many of my clients are ambitious, fast-thinking individuals - founders, professionals, leaders and students - navigating high expectations while managing ADHD.
Alongside my coaching practice, I consult with corporates, educational institutions and organisations globally on neurodiversity awareness, inclusion and how to effectively support neurodivergent talent.

Ummayah Sidhu
Counsellor/Therapist, BACP Accredited Psychotherapist & Clinical Lead | Identity, Heritage & High-Pressure Transitions
THE WHOLE STORY APPROACH
I offer a relational, high-trust therapeutic space where every part of your journey, from your cultural heritage and faith to your professional life, is seen, respected, and valued. As a BACP Accredited Psychotherapist and former Head of University Counselling & Wellbeing, I bring over a decade of senior clinical leadership and international experience to our work together.
My practice is deeply rooted in understanding the delicate balance of identity, belonging, and faith. Having lived and worked in Qatar for six years within a diverse international community, I bring a global, nuanced perspective to my relational work. I understand the complex dynamics of mixed-heritage families, navigating differing worldviews, and holding firm to your core values.
Beyond my cultural and relational work, my background directing large-scale clinical services means my practice is held to the highest standards of clinical governance and care. Whether you are navigating workplace burnout, the pressures of leadership, or personal questions of heritage and identity, I offer an expert, spiritually sensitive space to support your growth.
I welcome you to reach out for an initial conversation to explore how we can work together.

Ruth Mark-Roland Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Post Grad Diploma in Psychotherapy, Foundation and Diploma in Group Analysis
I am a London-based integrative psychotherapist offering LGBTQ+ therapy, chemsex support, and help with relationship difficulties. I work with gay men and others within the LGBTQ+ community who are navigating identity, sexuality, intimacy, trauma, and emotional wellbeing, often feeling stuck, disconnected, or caught in repeating relational patterns. My approach is relational and trauma-informed, providing a warm, non-judgemental space to explore emotional pain, attachment patterns, and the impact of early relationships alongside present-day challenges. With a background in group analysis, I draw on Foulkes’ understanding of the individual as shaped within relational systems such as family, culture, and society, helping clients make sense of how their experiences of belonging and identity influence their emotional lives and relationships.

Lulu AlRashdi
Life Coach
From an ex-police officer to a trauma-informed life coach. My journey has been profound. I learned that the greatest gift we can give ourselves is recognizing who we truly are beneath our conditioning, survival patterns, and past experiences.
Many of the struggles we face today are rooted in childhood experiences, unconscious beliefs, and emotional wounds that continue to shape how we think, feel, and relate to the world. My role is to help you gently explore these patterns, understand their origins, and create awareness without judgment.

Lisa Sanfilippo
Registered Psychotherapist, 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 with more ease and enjoyment. We can get curious about what you learnt growing up and in your life to date that created your world-view, your assumptions and even your body's responses to the situations you face. We'll learn about how you relate to your world in ways that *work* for you, as well as where these ways of relating are causing pain or limiting you. We will find your best ways to unblock and release those old responses. The goal: to help you to be more at-ease and authentically yourself and in relation to friends, family, work and other important people and situations. I believe every one of us has a soul-nature and way of being that works well for us and it's our job to work with that.
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 not just thoughts and feelings, but how they land in your body. When we start to shift what is available to our felt-sense, our perceptions and actions can shift dramatically. This is one of the things I love about the recent post-graduate training I've undertaken in Somatic Experiencing. I'm at the Intermediate level in this method and it informs my approach to trauma, to neurodiversity and to relationships. I've also undertaken significant studies in ADHD and autism to help work with neurodivergence.

Filipa Marques
Hypnotherapist
At my transpersonal online hypnotherapy practice, greatness is defined by a unique fusion of expertise, compassion, and a commitment to holistic well-being. I specialize in transpersonal hypnotherapy, a modality that transcends traditional therapeutic approaches by incorporating spirituality and higher consciousness.
What truly distinguishes my practice is a profound recognition that each individual's journey is inherently unique. Tailoring each online hypnotherapy session with meticulous precision, I address the specific and nuanced needs of my clients, with particular emphasis on anxiety hypnotherapy. Moreover, my expertise extends to transformative modalities such as hypnotic gastric band therapy and smoking cessation, offering comprehensive support for those seeking lasting positive change.
Through a compassionate and collaborative approach, I guide individuals in a profound exploration of their subconscious, unlocking latent potential for personal growth and healing. Clients engaging with my practice not only find a safe and confidential space but also experience transformative sessions where they courageously confront and overcome issues like anxiety, fears, emotional blockages, weight management, and smoking cessation.
By reaching out to me, clients initiate a transformative journey toward profound healing and well-being. Discover the transformative power of transpersonal and anxiety hypnotherapy, hypnotic gastric band therapy, and smoking cessation, allowing me to be your dedicated guide on the path to enduring positive change and self-discovery.

Menaka Thiru
Counsellor/Therapist, Accredited Registrant Member of The National Counselling Society, Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling
I see counselling as a transformative journey that can positively transform the way you both see and experience yourself and also relate to others. I am currently focused on providing short-term counselling which would generally range between 8 and 10 sessions in total.
I am an experienced and dedicated counsellor of 12 years' standing and I work with a broad range of issues and welcome a diversity of clients. We work together so you can find relief from emotional distress, build self-awareness and access inner resources with the ultimate aim of improving your overall quality of life .
The counselling process is a rich opportunity to constructively evolve and increase your personal choice and freedom. It promotes fresh insights about yourself, the people and the circumstances of your life, thereby offering you a pathway to nourishing experiences both in and outside the counselling roorm.
Over the years I have practised as a counsellor I have consistently established supportive and collaborative therapeutic relationships with a diverse range of individuals, each with their unique story characterised by their particular circumstances and challenges.

Karine Flynn
Psychologist, MSc, GMBPS
You've done real therapeutic work. You understand your patterns with a clarity that took years to build: why your nervous system braces before a difficult conversation, why certain relationships seem to confirm your oldest fears, why the same emotional weather keeps returning no matter how much you've examined it.
That understanding is not the problem. There is simply a neurobiological ceiling to what verbal processing can reach. Some people hit it - and when they do, the patterns that remain aren't stored as thoughts to be reframed. They live in the nervous system, in the body's tissues, in responses that were encoded long before language was available to organise them.
I work at that ceiling. Not because what came before was wrong - but because the next layer of work requires a different kind of access.
With over 20 years of experience and a deep specialisation in body-based trauma release, I work with self-aware individuals who are ready to move from understanding their patterns to releasing them. If that's where you are, I'd like to hear from you.

London's scale, pace, and cost of living create a high-pressure environment where therapists are in strong demand for burnout, anxiety, work-life imbalance, and the social isolation that can accompany life in a global megacity. The city's extraordinary diversity means therapists with cross-cultural competence and multilingual capability are particularly sought after, especially for communities navigating immigration stress, identity, and belonging. The NHS offers mental health services through its NHS Talking Therapies programme (formerly IAPT), though many Londoners seek private therapy for greater continuity of care and therapist choice. London's therapy community is one of the largest and most professionally diverse in the world, with practitioners trained across psychodynamic, CBT, integrative, and humanistic traditions.
