Counselling and psychotherapy in Willesden Green, Kilburn North West London
Hello and welcome to my website, my name is Teresa Sinani (formerly Kain). I am a qualified, experienced Integrative Psychotherapist and Counsellor based in Willesden Green, near Kilburn in North West London. I have spent the last 24 years working in human support services, 17 of these years as a therapist.
People reach out for therapy for a variety of reasons. We will all experience life's challenges from time to time. During these times we may feel lonely, confused, or overwhelmed trying to make sense of our thoughts and feelings. Therapy offers a space to speak about and process our experiences. It gives us an outlet. Accessing a non-judgmental, empathic space can help us feel recognised, validated and more connected to ourselves and others. It helps us to make sense of what we're experincing and to understand ourselves better.
I appreciate it can feel inappropriate or awkward to talk to family or friends. We may worry we are burdening those around us and not able to speak freely about our experiences. Therapy provides a confidential and neutral space to be heard.
It is not uncommon when reaching out for professional support that we may feel like we are weak or failing. Often having high expectations of ourselves to be strong and brave, to get on with things. This coupled with the stigma around asking for help, means, we might feel we need to manage things on our own and not show vulnerability. I believe taking the step to access support, is courageous. It takes strength, openness and commitment.
Therapy is not about fixing you or offering advice. It is a process of exploration, facilitated by a holding and containing environment. I am interested in what's bringing you to therapy, what you want to understand about yourself and how you can begin to heal. My approach is compassionate, intuitive and down-to-earth. I aim to work with you in a collaborative and empowering way. The therapy relationship and process will aid insight, self-awareness, developing your capacity to make decisions that help you to heal and move forward with your life.
I have vast experience working with a variety of clients in my professional life and embarked on extensive psychotherapy training. My motivation to train as a therapist was due to my own personal therapy journey, which I found healing and gave me the tools to move forward in my life.
I am experienced working with a diverse range of clients presenting with a variety of issues. This includes, depressed feelings, anxiety, stress, burnout, self-esteem issues, low confidence, relationship issues and childhood trauma. Sessions are weekly, at a mutually agreed regular time. I offer open-ended psychotherapy and short-term (time-limited) therapy to adults only.
I work as a counsellor and psychotherapist in Willesden Green which is in North West London. My Willesden Green psychotherapy and counselling practice is 5 minutes’ walk from Willesden Green tube station and is near Cricklewood, Golders Green, Brent Cross, Kilburn, West Hampstead, and Maida Vale. My practice is within easy reach of Central London and served by several bus routes.
