Giorgia Bertoni

Currently accepting new clients. I work via Zoom and Skype only

I have availability daytime and evenings, Monday to Thursday.

Living is a marvellous yet often painful adventure.

All of us, at some point, come face to face with some powerful questions. Who am I? What do I want? Why do I feel like something's wrong with me? How do I understand and cope with what's happened to me?

Whatever reasons have brought you here now, you are already taking a step forward on your journey of self discovery and healing. You may be struggling with anxiety, depression or a lack of direction in your life. Perhaps you are facing difficulties in your relationships or you seem to always end up in the same sort of situations and can't understand why. Maybe you have experienced traumatic events and are living with powerful demons. Perhaps something in your life doesn't feel right but you can't quite put your finger on what that is.

I can help you. As a psychodynamic counsellor and psychotherapist I can offer you a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space in which we can address whatever issues you're struggling with. Together we can journey into your inner world, make sense of your difficulties, find and create ways of coping, healing and thriving. My aim is to enable you to speak and live your own truth unapologetically.

​

I work primarily with issues related to sexuality, BDSM/Kink, sexual identity and gender identity and expression. I am sex positive, LBGTQIA+ allied, poly/non monogamous aware, BDSM/Kink conscious and sex worker allied.

I can also help you with issues such as

• generalised anxiety and panic attacks

• depression

• relationship difficulties

• body image

• OCD

• compulsive behaviour
  

• substance abuse, addiction and alcoholism

• lack of self-esteem and self-confidence

• abuse

• trauma

• phobias

• self-harm

• suicidal thoughts

In our first session we will talk about what has brought you to therapy and will explore what are your hopes, expectations and fears around the therapeutic process. It will be an opportunity for you to get a sense of my approach and to explore whether you would like to begin working with me.

If you decide to start counselling, we will agree on a suitable date and time for weekly sessions, as well as the duration of the course of therapy.

I work both on an open-ended basis, meaning you can come for as long as you find it helpful and necessary.
