Claire de la Varre
Therapist, PhD, HGDipP
If life feels overwhelming, therapy can help you find a way forward. My aim is simple: to help you feel better, think more clearly and feel more in control of your life.
Whether you are struggling with illness, anxiety, relationships, difficult emotions or unwanted habits, we can work together to make things feel more manageable.
I take a whole-person approach. We look at what is happening in your mind and body, as well as the relationships and circumstances that shape your life. I will help you understand what you need and develop practical ways to feel better and make lasting changes.
I can help with things like anxiety, low mood, smoking, drinking, binge eating, nail biting, doom scrolling and other habits you would like to change. I can also help you build healthier behaviours, greater confidence and emotional resilience.
My approach combines Human Givens therapy where we look at whether your basic emotional needs are being met, hypnotherapy, and Advanced Integrative Therapy (AIT). You will have tools and practical resources to use between sessions, including recordings and handouts.

Jimi Katsis
Registered Psychotherapist, MA psych, Dip SW
I've spent 30 years doing this work because I understand what it's like when the outside doesn't match the inside. I know what it means to carry things nobody sees. I've lived it, not just studied it.
I'm an integrative therapist, which means I adapt to what you actually need rather than fitting you into my preferred method. I'm trained in Psychodynamic & Schema Therapy, IFS, Somatic Experiencing, DBT-PTSD—but I don't force you into one box. We find what works for you, not what's convenient for me.
I'm not interested in teaching you more coping skills or managing symptoms. I want to help you understand why you're wired the way you are, then help you change it. That takes honesty, patience, and someone who won't look away when things get uncomfortable.
I've built businesses, raised a family, navigated my own dark corners. I get the weight of responsibility and what it costs to keep everything running while barely keeping yourself together.
If you need someone direct, grounded, human, and who won't waste your time—let's talk.

Funmi Oni
Counsellor/Therapist, MBACP, MSc, Dip in PPC
I know what it's like to feel stuck. For two decades, I battled with low self-esteem, watching it chip away at opportunities and relationships. I've also experienced the complexities of marriage firsthand. These aren't just credentials on my wall – they're chapters of my story that help me truly understand what you might be going through.
Since qualifying as a person-centered counselor in 2009, I've developed an approach that adapts to each person who walks through my door. As a registered BACP member and Gottman-trained relationship counselor, I bring both my professional expertise and genuine human understanding to our sessions.
People often tell me I have a way of making them feel instantly at ease. Maybe it's because I believe in you even before we meet. I've seen, time and time again, how people find their own answers when they're given the right space and support to explore them. There's no rush here – we'll move at whatever pace feels right for you. Life has a way of throwing curveballs when we least expect them. Sometimes, these changes knock us off our feet, and that's okay.
What matters isn't how many times we fall, but knowing there's someone ready to help us stand back up. That's where I come in. Think of me as a trusted guide who'll walk beside you as you rediscover your inner strength. I will be honored to be part of your journey.
