I am a counselling psychologist/psychotherapist who specialises in perinatal mental health. I currently work in an NHS perinatal mental health team in London where I offer therapeutic support to parents and their babies with a special interest in traumatic birth experiences.

We have a team of counsellors who specialise in supporting mothers and their partners with a wide range of issues, including birth trauma and also postnatal depression. Other issues we work with include anxiety, parenting difficulties and relationship difficulties. Parents with children of all ages can refer themselves to the service.

I am a qualified social worker and psychoanalytic psychotherapist with over thirty years’ experience working in the field of mental health, in both the private and public sectors, with people presenting with a wide range of problems.

I use various types of therapy including cognitive behavioural therapy, cognitive analytic therapy and psychodynamic therapy.

I specialise in providing high-quality CBT and EMDR therapies, and can support you to work through a range of issues, including post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, anxiety (general anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder, social anxiety, health anxiety), anger, adjustment difficulties or parental difficulties (perinatal-depression, perinatal-anxiety or birth trauma).

Christina is a kind, compassionate, gentle Human Givens psychotherapist with over thirty years experience working across the social care sector including the NHS, GP surgeries, community mental health teams , the charity sector and in private practice. For the last fifteen years she has been working with those who are pregnant, giving birth or in the early months of parenthood.

I specialise in the assessment and treatment of psychological difficulties following traumatic experiences and have expertise and clinical experience in treating a range of psychological difficulties.

I am registered as a clinical psychologist with the Health and Care Profession Council (HCPC), BUPA and AXA PPP Healthcare. Myself and my colleagues offer therapy sessions from our office in central London where you are very welcome to bring your baby with you. I offer a reduced rate for women on maternity leave.

Our goal is to help new mothers feel calmer, stronger and empowered through evidence-based psychological treatment. We are passionate about making psychological support easily accessible and raising awareness about the psychological impact of birth trauma on new families.

Transitioning into parenthood can be a uniquely personal and challenging experience for anyone. As an Integrative Therapist with an MA in Relationship Therapy, I am able to offer professional insight and help with the healing process.
