Ken Lee
Registered Psychotherapist, BSc MA MProf
I’m Ken Lee, a Child and Adolescent Psychotherapist offering specialist support to children, teenagers, young adults, and families in Ayrshire, Glasgow, and Edinburgh.
I provide a safe, non-judgemental space for young people aged 0–25 to explore emotional and relational challenges. Whether you're a parent worried about your child’s anxiety or low mood, a teenager struggling with identity or friendships, or a young adult feeling lost or overwhelmed—therapy can help.
With over 18 years of experience in both NHS and private settings, I offer once-weekly and intensive psychoanalytic psychotherapy. I also work closely with parents and caregivers, supporting family relationships and emotional understanding.

Samantha Coleman
Therapist, MBACP Prof Dip
I work in a warm, informal, and deeply human way. I see you as the expert on yourself, and my role is to help you make sense of what lies beneath the surface: your patterns, relationships, wounds, pressures, and life experiences. I bring together genuine warmth, honest connection, deep pattern recognition, and a structured approach, so that therapy feels both easy to step into and meaningful in what it uncovers. I believe the best therapy happens when you can be real, speak freely, and feel understood without having to perform or pretend.

Dr Aneliya Gonsard
Psychologist, DClinPscy, MSc, BA
Hello. I am Dr Aneliya Gonsard - clinical psychologist and psychodynamic psychotherapist. I bring with me rich professional experience, encompassing fourteen years of clinical practice in the public, private and charity sectors. I have supported individuals, groups and organisations in various roles - as a psychotherapist, supervisor, trainer and a psychologist in multidisciplinary teams.
Currently I work solely in private practice. If we get to meet, you can expect a confidential space where you can bring forward your difficulties, start exploring your experiences and develop, with my support, a deeper understanding of who you are - what holds you back and what drives you forward and towards a more wholesome way of living.
You can find our more about me on my professional website: www.thrive.bg/en

Eric C Bettelheim
Registered Psychotherapist, PhD, MSc., J.D., M.A. A.B. Member: BACP, BPC.
My approach combines modern scientific understanding with traditional techniques and is based on a lifetime of experience in the professions, business, academia and family life. Therapy is open-ended and client-led and explores the sources, as well as relieving the symptoms, of distress. The goal is to achieve long-lasting change and personal growth.

Dipak Jilka - Psychotherapist & Counsellor
Therapist, Psychotherapy & Counselling Federation of Australia (PACFA) – PACFA Reg. Clinical 26570
Holding a grounded stance of compassion, empathy, non-judgment and light-hearted curiosity, I provide a safe and reflective space for clients to explore and gently unpack their lives. While clients may initially seek support for concerns such as anger, anxiety, compulsive sexual behaviours, relationship difficulties, or other presenting issues, my experience has shown that the underlying dynamics are often more complex than they first appear.
My therapeutic ethos is centred on not viewing clients as problems to be fixed, but as individuals whose struggles deserve to be witnessed with respect, depth and thoughtful exploration. I work collaboratively, supporting clients to develop greater self-awareness, emotional resilience and clarity about how they wish to live.
I am of South Asian heritage, raised in London, and have lived in Sydney for over 30 years. Having straddled Eastern and Western cultures, including the particular nuances of my Indian background, I bring a culturally informed and integrative perspective to my practice. My earlier corporate career and lived experience of family life in Australia, alongside my own encounters with anxiety, stress and periods of low mood, have deepened my understanding of the pressures many clients face.
My personal journey toward greater meaning, purpose and self-understanding informs my belief in psychotherapy as a transformative process. I am committed to supporting clients in cultivating insight, living more consciously, and moving toward lives that feel authentic and self-directed.
If this approach resonates with you, I welcome the opportunity to connect.
