Welcome

I’m Mili, a Psychodynamic Psychotherapist and a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).

I have experience working with a wide range of emotional difficulties, including anxiety, depression, and particularly bereavement and grief and relationship struggles. I understand that loss can take many forms, not only the death of a loved one, but also losses related to identity, relationships, family expectations, or life transitions.

My own background and clinical experience have made me especially attentive to how culture, family systems, and unspoken expectations can shape emotional life. You don’t need to have a clear cultural question to bring this into therapy, it often emerges naturally as part of the work.

I offer a calm, respectful, and non-judgemental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings safely, and begin to make sense of patterns that may feel confusing or overwhelming.

How Psychodynamic therapy works:

My approach is rooted in Psychodynamic thinking, which recognises that our past experiences can shape how we relate to others and ourselves in the present. Together, we can explore the patterns and feelings that might be repeating in your life, and begin to find new ways of relating and responding to create meaningful and lasting change.

Together, we may explore:

Repeating patterns in relationships
Difficult emotions that feel hard to explain
Early experiences and how they shaped you
Ways you relate to yourself and others
What comes up between us in the therapy space

This kind of work can lead to greater self-awareness, emotional freedom, and a stronger sense of agency in your life.

What it’s like to work with me:

Therapy with me is a collaborative process. A place to understand what may lie beneath the surface of your current struggles, and to develop greater self-awareness and emotional resilience. Whether you’re seeking therapy for a specific issue or a more general sense of dissatisfaction, we can work together to help you find clarity and a way forward.

You don’t need to have a clear reason to start therapy. Often, the work begins with curiosity about yourself and your experiences.

Starting Therapy

First - Schedule a call

Begin with a complementary consultation call.

This gives us the opportunity to talk about whats brought you to therapy at this time.

I'll explain how I work, answer your questions and help you get a sense of what therapy with me might look like.

Second - Arrange your session

Book a 60 minute introductory session. The extended sessions allows us to explore your concerns in more depth and consider how we might work together.

There's no expectation to continue beyond this session. It's simply a space to see whether we feel like the right fit for one another.

Third - Ongoing 50 minute weekly sessions

If we decide to move forward, we'll set up regular sessions either in person or online.

As our work develops, we'll check in regularly about how things are progressing and adjust our approach as needed ensuring therapy remains aligned with your goals.
