Psychodynamic
Valentina Olper
Therapist, MSc
Something brought you here. Maybe it’s a pattern you keep repeating in relationships. Maybe it’s a feeling stored in your body that words alone haven’t reached. Maybe it’s the sense that something from your past is still shaping your present. I work with people ready to look honestly at their inner world — with curiosity rather than judgment. Together we decode what your emotional landscape is telling you, and find your way back to yourself. If any of this resonates — I would love to meet you.
I work in English, Italian, and Spanish, online and worldwide.

Dr Jacob Ellwood
Psychologist, PsychD, Cpsychol
I am an experienced integrative therapist, and I am trained in a range of modalities that will allow us to identify a tailor-made approach to help you overcome your unique challenges. I offer a warm, accepting presence, and work on the assumption that all successful therapy proceeds from a person-centred foundation based in empathy, positive regard and genuine concern for the welfare of my clients. Approaches offered include CBT, psychodynamic, and mindfulness-based therapy, and I am also a level 3-trained EMDR therapist. I also incorporate elements of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and schema therapy.

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.

Georgie Gee
Registered Psychotherapist, Masters in Child and Adolescent Psychotherapy
My philosophy is rooted in the belief that effective therapy creates a safe space where young people can explore their inner world and understand the root causes of their distress. By helping adolescents make meaning of their experiences empowers them to develop a stronger sense of self enabling them to navigate future challenges with greater awareness and confidence.

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.
