Eleni Diakou

Currently, I have available spaces and can see you within 48 hours.

I am an experienced Counsellor/Psychotherapist offering short-term and open-ended therapy to individuals and couples and support to trainees/students. In addition, I offer supervision to trainees/students of most modalities

I focus on providing a professional, confidential and friendly space where individuals, couples and  trainees/ students can feel at ease to reflect, share and explore their personal/training difficulties and with my help, identify ways of overcoming them to their satisfaction. My focus is to assist clients/trainees in gaining greater understanding of themselves and in so doing, find solutions and enjoyment in their lives/training.

I have run my own private practice for over 10 years and have previously worked for an NHS Psychotherapy Unit and an NHS Primary Health Mental Health Trust.

I have a Post Graduate Diploma in Transactional Analysis and I am a Registered Member of BACP (Accredited). I am also qualified and have years of experience in the fields of Psychiatric Nursing and Social Work.

I provide face-to-face sessions, sessions via the telephone and on line i.e. video calls.  

My first session focusses on getting to know each other, identifying the supervisee's needs and goals and the way we can work together.

Thereafter, a review takes place after 3-6 sessions during which, if appropriate, longer term plans and goals are discussed and agreed. 

I have available sessions now and can see you within 48 hours.

My first session focusses on getting to know each other, identifying the issues facing the client and agreeing a plan of how best they can be addressed within a therapeutic framework.

Once an agreement is reached, three to six sessions are planned at the end of which a review takes place. At this review, the work undertaken so far is explored and if appropriate, longer term plans and goals are discussed and agreed.
