Anthoulla Nicolaides

In my therapeutic practice, I provide a warm and supportive environment for individuals to explore their difficulties in life, relationships and childhood, and to share and express confusing and overwhelming feelings. I believe that, though challenging, therapy can help clients navigate their life struggles and bring unconscious patterns of behaviour and relational difficulties to light, enabling more self-awareness, confidence and connection with the world around them, and in relationships.

I have a deep trust in the uniqueness and resourcefulness of each person and believe that with curiosity, reflection and expression, individuals can get to know themselves better, giving them a stronger sense of purpose, belonging and fulfilment enabling a more autonomous and meaningful life.

I am a relational therapist and believe that healing takes place within the relationship between the client and the psychotherapist. I have a deep belief that counselling and psychotherapy can be life-changing, whether you want to understand your past, and unconscious patterns of behaviour or are stuck and want to explore new territories. I am passionate about understanding the intricacies of human existence and the factors that pose a threat to it. In my work, I prioritise my clients' well-being and personal growth and have a deep empathy for their life experiences. I aim to discover what brings them independence, joy, meaning, and purpose in life. I will work together with you to discuss, understand and resolve anything that’s on your mind, I am not a silent therapist, the process will be supportive and collaborative, and I will use both conventional and contemporary types of therapy depending on your particular needs or wishes.

In our first session we will discuss your reasons for coming to therapy and what you wish to gain from it. We will talk about any previous therapy and also I will ask you about key relationships and any events that may have had an impact on you. We will assess whether we are the right fit and discuss further sessions if you want to continue with me as your therapist.

I am happy to have a fifteen-minute phone consultation prior to the first in-depth session or to answer any questions you may have by email. 

I work from this location on Thursdays.

I have a deep belief that counselling and psychotherapy can be life-changing, whether you want to understand your past,  patterns of behaviour and relating,  or are stuck and want to explore new territories. I am interested in the existential life of people and therefore will look at what threatens a person's existence, and what affects their connections. I pay attention to the needs and growth of my clients, and I explore what brings joy, meaning and purpose to their lives.
