Afeezat Akiwumi

I am available for sessions Thursday's, Friday's  10am - 6pm.

I currently work online but face to face sessions are available depending on your needs. 

Therapy sessions are on a weekly basis at the same time each week.

I am a qualified Psychodynamic psychotherapist offering a non-judgemental, containing space for parts of you that may have felt difficult to explore or feelings and emotions that you may have struggled to make sense of . 

Some of life's  experiences and encounters can often leave us with feelings that are hard to manage.

Sometimes we can feel dissociated, like we are disconnected from the world around us. This can lead to isolation and a difficulty in fully enaging with the fruits that life has to offer.

No matter what shoes you walk in, Counselling can provide a space for you to really feel seen amongst life's challenges and difficulties and work through things that may have felt impossible.

Our sessions will be led by what you bring and your needs are paramount.

I have experience working as a Psychotherapist in private practice as well as a trauma informed counsellor for a charity. 

My experiences have cultivated an integrative way of practicing where various techniques of therapy have a place - whether that be using imagery, grounding techniques and breathing amongst other things. Everyone is unique in what they bring and so should your journey in therapy reflect that.

The first session will be an initial meeting to assess your needs and learn more about you and your reasons for coming to therapy. 

This gives us the chance to explore whether the space that I offer is the best space for you. 

You will also have the chance to ask any questions you may have regarding the way I work and what ongoing therapy may look like.
