Liam West
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, Adv Dip MBACP
I’ve been in practise since 2016 and feel very blessed having had the opportunity to help so many people on their healing journey.
My first focus is always in creating a safe space; one of understanding, compassion and openness. Anyone attending therapy needs to feel safe, secure, and seen and understood by their therapist.
Though there’s a lot more that I do in my work with people than above, it’s those foundations - the relationship between therapist and clients - that everything else we do is built from.
You will get 100% from me, as well as a dedication to continual learning and exploring, refining already known approaches, as well as adding in new tools and techniques.
I know therapy can be a nervous thing to first try, but I’m sure in saying that I will put anyone at ease very quickly, and that anyway that sticks with therapy - and feels safe and heard by myself - will experience change that is hard to almost hard to believe until it starts to happen.
I look forward to meeting you

Therapy with Ben
Counsellor/Therapist, MBACP
Hello, I’m Ben. I believe counselling works best when you feel genuinely heard, accepted and able to be yourself.
I offer an approachable, supportive relationship in which we can explore whatever is happening in your life without judgement or pressure. You may be struggling with anxiety, depression, grief, relationships, neurodivergence or changes that have left you feeling overwhelmed or disconnected. You do not need to arrive with everything clearly understood or know exactly what you want to say.
My approach is integrative, drawing particularly on person-centred and psychodynamic therapy. This allows us to consider both what you are experiencing now and the earlier relationships or patterns that may continue to affect you.
I have particular knowledge and experience of ADHD and neurodiversity, but I work with each person as an individual rather than reducing anyone to a diagnosis or label. Together, we can develop a greater understanding of your experiences and what you may need moving forward.

Dr Paul Garden
Psychologist, Doctorate in Psychology, DPsych, MSc with Distinction, BSc First Class Honours.
I am a registered Health Care Professions Council (HCPC) Practitioner Psychologist, and am on the British Psychological Society Register of Applied Psychology Practice Supervisors (RAPPS). I have been in Private Practice in Central London for nine years.
Before spending ten years in full-time study and training in London universities and NHS Trusts to qualify as a psychologist, I spent a decade travelling, mainly around Asia, studying Eastern psychology and philosophy. Thus, I have a rich lens of psychological perspectives through which I understand and work with the mind.
Psychoanalytic thinking underpins my approach to therapy, which is always tailored to suit the unique needs of each person. The therapeutic work then adapts as those needs change over time.
You will find my approach to be naturally compassionate, and non-judgemental.

Dr Yasoja Gunawardene
Counsellor/Therapist, MD(Doctor of medicine),Counselling Psychotherapist, CBT Therapists, Certified Hypnotherapist
I have a strong interest in counselling because I believe that every individual deserves to be heard, understood, and supported without judgment. People experience various emotional, psychological, social, and personal challenges throughout their lives, and I believe that counselling can play an important role in helping them understand their feelings, overcome difficulties, and make positive changes.
My interest in counselling comes from my desire to understand human behaviour, emotions, and relationships. I recognise the importance of empathy, active listening, patience, confidentiality, and respect when supporting individuals who may be experiencing difficult situations. I believe that effective counselling involves creating a safe and trusting environment in which people feel comfortable expressing their thoughts and emotions.
