Marta Meli

I am an integrative therapist and I provide a warm, non-judgemental and inclusive space open to individuals of all cultures, backgrounds, orientations and abilities.

Whether you are dealing with long-standing difficulties that you feel limit your ability to live a fulfilling life or you are going through a difficult patch due to a specific experience or issue, I can help you by providing a safe space where you can voice what is going on for you. My aim is to facilitate a process where you can identify your needs and live a fuller and more authentic life. Ultimately, I would like to support you in finding and putting in practice the changes and solutions that best work for you.

As integrative therapist I draw on different approaches including psychodynamic, person-centred and Gestalt. In order to better meet your needs and support your self-expression, when relevant I incorporate the use of images and symbols, dreams and art.

I work in a relational way which means that I believe that how you and I relate during the sessions can give us important insight into all relationships in your life, including how you see yourself. For me the quality of the authentic relationship we establish is at the core of the healing and transformative process.

I hold an Advanced Diploma in Humanistic Integrative Counselling and a Foundation Course in Intercultural Psychodynamic Approaches. As a counsellor I worked at East London Mental Health Support, seeing clients with a broad range of mental health difficulties. I worked in the field of mental wellbeing for many years, supporting people with a life-limiting or terminal illness, people going through bereavement and refugees with experiences of trauma and living with complex mental health difficulties.

Other than in English, I offer sessions in Italian and Spanish. If you have any questions, would like to know more about how I work or book an initial session please do get in touch.
