As a couple therapist, there’s nothing quite like witnessing a couple who’ve lost their way find their way back to each other. I love creating a safe space where they can reconnect on a deeper level and rebuild their love I’m passionate about helping others realise their strength and believe, with support, we can overcome any challenge.

I’m experienced in helping people who are struggling with anxiety, depression, loneliness or sex and relationship difficulties. I’m a lead psychologist for NHS services and have a background in specialist services for sexual health. I understand how looking for a therapist can be daunting, possibly quite overwhelming. I therefore offer a free initial telephone consultation of 15-20 minutes. This gives us an opportunity to talk about what you’re struggling with and how I could help before deciding whether to book further sessions. I’m currently accepting new clients for online therapy on weekday evenings.

I am a qualified psychotherapist and accredited coach with many years experience in substance misuse and recovery. I am Head of Clinical Supervision in the specialty addiction charity, Controlling Chemsex and so have particular expertise and experience in providing Chemsex or PnP support for gay men and other men who have sex with men (MSM), and with the main chemsex drugs, crystal meth (tina or t), GHB, and mephedrone among others.

Life can feel overwhelming and stressful sometimes. It can also just suck. I can offer you a space to talk about what you’re struggling with. I hope that you’ll feel heard and seen, without feeling judged. Together, we can explore what’s going on for you in your life right now, the ups and downs of your childhood, or your joys and fears for your future. I work with queer people particularly and activists, and those affected by stress, burnout and insomnia.  

I am an enthusiastic bilingual Clinical Psychologist, with more than 18 years’ experience providing effective therapy in English and Spanish, for adults, children, and adolescents. I finished my training as a Clinical Psychologist in 2010 with the highest honour of my class at “Hospital Centro de Salud Mental del Este El Peñón” (Mental health centre Hospital “El Peñón”) in Caracas, Venezuela, where I was invited to join the group of professors. For 3 years I tough psychotherapy and supervised psychologists who were training as a clinical psychologist and medical doctors who were training as a psychiatrist.

I offer a reflective and supportive space where you can talk openly about what’s going on for you.  Together we’ll explore your experiences, relationships, and the patterns that may be keeping you stuck, paying attention not only to your story but also to how it feels to share it.  My aim is to help you feel more at ease with yourself, more connected in your relationships, and freer to live authentically. I offer 1:1 therapy both online and in person.  My in person work is held in Queen’s Park, NW6.

If you’re reading this, you’ve likely shapeshifted through rooms that never really saw you – softened your truth, masked who you really are, or been made to feel you’re “too much” and “not enough.” You might be burnt out from surviving systems that were never built with you in mind, or your queerness may have been dismissed or sexualised. Maybe Kink, ENM, or sex work has offered space to reclaim agency – and now, you want therapy that doesn’t ask you to explain that. You don’t need to justify yourself here – I already speak your language.

Welcome, I’m Silvia. I support people through anxiety, low self-confidence, depression, unresolved trauma, painful relationship patterns, grief, and major life changes. Some of my clients describe feeling stuck or disconnected, unsure how to move forward. Whatever you’re facing, you don’t have to go through it alone. Together, we can explore what’s happening beneath the surface and begin to find a way forward that feels more manageable and fulfilling.

Some of the key areas I work in: Anxiety and Depression Anxiety and depression are some of the most common and uncomfortable emotions that we can experience in our lives. Through the counselling relationship, we will work together to manage these and, with acceptance and insight, there is a good chance that things will begin to shift for you. Relationships Interpersonal relationships can be a source of both joy and pain in our lives. By exploring these in therapy and using the therapeutic relationship in the room as a mirror to your outside life, we can build a better understanding
