Edinburgh, Scotland therapist: Claire de la Varre, therapist
Children

Claire de la Varre

Therapist, PhD, HGDipP
If you are feeling overwhelmed because of illness, relationships, or other challenges in your life, therapy can help break things down into manageable pieces. When you work with me we will not only talk things through, but I will help you listen to the messages that your body is sending, and we can tackle your issues in an intentional and appropriate way. If you want to change harmful behaviours like smoking, drinking, or binge eating, I have well-tested programs that help with those issues. If you are prone to anxiety or depression, I can help you tap into your own inbuilt resources to get your emotional needs met and things will look very different. If you have unwanted habits like nail biting or doom scrolling, or just want to develop new healthy behaviours like exercising and eating right, I can help! I treat you as the individual that you are, with your own thoughts, feelings, emotions, physical symptoms, hopes and dreams. I also look at the relationships, families and communities you belong to, and how these contribute to your daily wellbeing or affect your struggles. I offer the Human Givens approach (the nine emotional needs), hypnotherapy (I have 18 years' experience), and Advanced Integrative Therapy (AIT) which is an energy psychology. My goal is to help you build emotional resilience, self-confidence, and encourage clear thinking. I provide materials, like mp3 recordings and handouts, to support you and reinforce the therapeutic work between sessions.

Lincoln, England therapist: Beth Jackson Counselling and Coaching, counselor/therapist
Children

Beth Jackson Counselling and Coaching

Counsellor/Therapist, BA (hons), Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling
I could tell you that I am warm and personable and could list all the variety of clients that I have worked with as well as my wide experience in schools, education and with families (my own as well as other people’s). More important than that though is for me to understand your story, your situation, your plans and vision for the week, month and year. You are an individual and your situation is also totally unique. For you, choosing and working with the right counsellor is vitally important so please contact me to find out more. A good and open relationship between a client and counsellor is essential and I tailor my sessions to work to your needs. We can discuss and choose strategies to improve your situation quickly as we work together in a clear and step by step way.

London, England therapist: Anna Dafna, psychologist
Children

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.

Dr. Sonia Ovuehor Ovy

Counsellor/Therapist, Doctor of science in Counselling Psychology, Msc Conflict Resolution, Advanced Diploma in Psychotherapy, Counselling and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Certificate in Mental Health Studies, Suicide Prevention and Intervention, Diploma in Relationship and Family Counselling, CPD in Neuro Linguistic Programming.
I am a globally certified relationship and marriage coach, licensed Counsellor, seasoned Therapist. My years of hands-on experience cut across relationship therapy, marital counselling, business coaching, career mentorship, grief/trauma/addiction recovery, etc. I possess grandiose expertise in listening, absorbing and analyzing human problems without prejudice. As an individual who has experienced life from all angles (right from a tender age), I am apparently in a better position to counsel and admonish individuals who battle with depression, anxiety, retrogression/set backs, financial turmoils, addiction, emotional/domestic abuse, rejection, youthful exuberance, juvenile delinquency, child abuse, marital/family crisis, etc. My professional background makes me capable of being a great confidant and less judgmental. My sense of humor often gives my clients a soothing sigh of relief, irrespective of the burden at hand. I also provide spiritual counselling services for deeper issues beyond basic comprehension.
