Our Associates

Catherine has more than forty years of personal and professional experience working with addiction and eating disorders. She specialises in trauma, and in grief and loss, both where these relate to addiction and where they arrive from the rest of a life.

Her training runs deep and has never stopped. A diploma in Psychodynamic Psychotherapy. A postgraduate diploma in Addiction Studies from London South Bank University. A four year pluralistic psychoanalytical psychotherapy training leading to membership of the Guild of Psychotherapists. She continues in regular postgraduate training and development.

She has worked in inpatient settings, in day care and in private practice, which is a combination that matters. It means she knows what residential treatment can do and where it stops being the right answer.

Catherine lived and worked in Spain for five years. Her practice is now primarily online, with some consulting in London, Norfolk, New York and other international destinations, so she is genuinely available to clients wherever they are.

She consults regularly with other members of the profession, and is particularly drawn to the work and practice of Carl Jung.

My name is Niall and I am a BACP registered psychodynamic psychotherapist, offering a safe and thoughtful space for you to explore your inner life and external challenges, whatever they may be.

My approach is built on the understanding that all of us carry hidden wounds, whether they be from childhood experiences, family dynamics, later losses, or any of life's other frustrations. We often develop strategies to "treat" these wounds. Some may turn to alcohol or other substances, others may channel anxieties into work or relationships, while others simply shut down and disconnect from their emotional world.

If you are reading this, it may be because strategies like these are no longer serving you. You might be facing an external crisis, such as a bereavement, addiction or the breakdown of a relationship. You may simply feel tired of, or trapped by, long-standing patterns, structures and dynamics that are preventing you from living fully.

Moments when we feel on the verge of "breaking down" are, in fact, powerful opportunities to uncover, examine and reform our relationships with ourselves. As your psychotherapist, my goal is to support you in understanding and integrating your past experiences with your current self, while also exploring possibilities for your future. I believe this work goes beyond merely making the present bearable. It can allow us to find meaning and beauty even in those most tender and painful parts of us.

My approach is existential and integrative. A big part of what I do is help people find a way to organise and find meaning in their experience of living. I see the person sitting in front of me not as a set of symptoms to manage, but as someone trying to make sense of their life.

I work with individuals and couples around identity, addiction, neurodiversity, life transitions, communication, and complex relationship dynamics, including infidelity and the fallout from trauma that may exist within the relational dynamic itself.

My starting point is to try to locate myself in your world: to listen, to get inside your story, to see your experiences according to your point of view. What guides the work from there is the unfolding story in the room, and the developing relationship we build together.

I take an active role in sessions, asking questions and sometimes offering challenges to help you see things from new perspectives, or to unearth questions not yet asked. When suitable, I incorporate other psychological modalities, always from the position of what suits the work and the clients in the room.

Giorgia is an integrative therapist working with adults experiencing addiction, eating disorders and a wide range of emotional and psychological difficulties. She offers a thoughtful, collaborative space where clients can slow down, make sense of their experiences and explore the patterns that may be keeping them stuck.

Her clinical work has focused particularly on supporting people with substance and behavioural addictions, as well as eating disorders. Alongside this, she works with anxiety, depression, ADHD, low self-esteem, relationship and family difficulties, trauma, and life transitions. Her approach combines warmth, curiosity and compassion, helping clients develop a deeper understanding of themselves while working towards meaningful and lasting change.

Giorgia has worked across both inpatient and private practice settings, supporting adults from a broad range of backgrounds and with varying levels of complexity. Her experience includes working within multidisciplinary teams, delivering individual and group therapy, carrying out assessments, and supporting clients throughout different stages of recovery.

She holds an MSc in Addiction Psychology and Counselling from London South Bank University and is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She is also an accredited member of Addiction Professionals, and is committed to ongoing professional development.

She is beginning formal training in psychodynamic and Jungian psychotherapy, reflecting a growing interest in unconscious processes and symbolism. Her practice remains integrative, while developing an approach that places increasing emphasis on the unconscious and the deeper patterns that shape our inner worlds.

She offers weekly fifty minute sessions from her private practice in North London, as well as online therapy across the UK. An initial consultation is an opportunity to discuss what has brought you to therapy, consider what you hope to gain, and explore whether working together feels right.
