Hello and welcome, I am a qualified psychodynamic psychotherapist and Individual Member of BACP working in London with adolescents and adults. Being psychodynamic means my practice draws upon psychoanalytic approaches and centres co-constructing a healing therapeutic relationship. A core belief guiding my work is that the quality of our past and present relationships significantly impacts our well-being and sense of self. I bring warmth and integrity to my role, alongside a friendly disposition as a Californian. I aim to de-mystify the process through which I support my clients to engage with what is drawing them towards change and creating something different

My approach is holistic and creative, integrating different forms of art to support your journey.

LGBTQ+ Affirmative, Addiction and Trauma Informed.   My approach is psychodynamic, meaning that we will work in a way which explores links between past and present relationships and experiences. In particular, I can help you to explore how the impact of the past has led to the development of unconscious, repetitive patterns in the different parts of your life such as intimate relationships and work, which may have become unhelpful.  By becoming aware of these parts of yourself that may be hidden, more informed choices can be made and life can be experienced from a place of increased emotional freedom.

Beginning therapy can feel daunting, so if you’re here reading this then you have already taken a big step. If you are wondering whether therapy is for you, I hope I can help answer your question. Therapy can offer a space for personal insight, understanding, growth and change. I offer a confidential, inclusive, non-judgemental, and safe space for exploration and reflection. I also believe that humour, play and creativity have a place in therapy and can play key roles in coming to terms with hardships and loss, and of healing.To book an initial session drop me an email or send

I’m Milo (they/them), a queer counsellor working online. I started Pink Penguin Counselling for LGBTQ+, kinky, non-monogamous, and neurodivergent people because I know how hard it is to find a space where you can fully be yourself and be met with understanding. With everything going on in the world, having a place where you don’t have to worry about judgment or safety feels more important than ever. I strive to create that safe space where we can explore whatever feels important for you together.
