Therapy Schools I draw from
I am a humanistic and integrative therapist. Humanistic therapy believes in the full potential and integrity of all people and emphasises a real relationship between client and psychotherapist. Integrative therapy combines ideas and techniques from different therapeutic schools of thought depending on the unique needs of a given client. I draw from various theoretical approaches in my work, including Psychodynamic, Person-Centred, Internal Family Systems and Somatic frameworks.
Therapists I work with
Hi, I'm Jodie I am a trainee psychotherapist studying Integrative Psychotherapy at The Metanoia Institute.
To me, integrative psychotherapy allows me to put you at the center of our work. Integrative therapy is about drawing on the tools and techniques used by different therapy schools, blending them together to best suit the person in the room.
This allows me to fit my approach around you, rather than trying to fit you in a certain way of looking at things.
My goal is to go at a pace you're happy with, create a safe environment and build a strong relationship in which you feel able to discuss any difficulties you were facing.
I have experience working with:
- Anxiety
- Trauma
- Depression
- Eating Disorders
- Relationship Problems
- Addiction
- Psychedelic Experiences (Preparation and Integration)
- Sexuality
Fees: My current rate is £40 per session. Reduced fees are available for clients on benefits, students, or low incomes, agreed upon before the first session.
Hi, I’m Alexandra. I’m a trainee integrative psychotherapist studying at the Metanoia Institute in London.
Integrative psychotherapy allows me to work with you as an individual, rather than working from a one-size-fits-all approach. My way of working is relational, drawing from psychodynamic and humanistic approaches, and adapting the work to what feels most useful for you.
I’m interested not only in what has happened to you, but in how those experiences may continue to shape the way you feel about yourself, relate to others and move through the world. Together, we can begin to notice patterns that may once have helped or protected you but now leave you feeling stuck.
My aim is to create a warm, collaborative space where you can speak openly and explore difficult experiences without judgement or pressure to have everything figured out.
Fees: My current rate is £40 per session. Reduced fees are available for clients on benefits, students, or low incomes, agreed upon before the first session.
