Vilyana Tsekova

I am based in Soho and St Paul's, Central London, and offer individual therapy sessions online and in person. Currently I have availability for online sessions and a waiting list for in-person therapy.

In my therapeutic practice, I support clients in developing their psychological resilience. I understand that life can present us with overwhelming and distressing moments, and my approach is rooted in helping you navigate these challenges. Whether you are experiencing burnout, struggling with anxiety, depression, dealing with difficult emotions and stress, or confronting significant life hurdles, I firmly believe in your ability to overcome obstacles and thrive. 

My clinical work has undergone significant transformation over the last 19 years, shifting from behavioural therapy to an integrative approach and incorporating certain specialist treatments. The completion of separate trainings as both a psychologist and a psychotherapist holds immense value and benefits for my professional practice.

As an accredited therapist, I am dedicated to helping individuals navigate challenges and achieve personal growth. I draw on a range of evidence-based approaches, carefully tailoring each to the unique needs of my clients. I am also an AXA Health recognised psychotherapist. 

I have worked in a variety of clinical settings, including CAMHS, forensic mental health, NHS community mental health; the charitable sector, high-intensity therapy service, and private practice. Your health and quality of life are important, and I look forward to the opportunity to work with you.

I have also been involved with humanitarian and human rights Organisations, working on various health-related projects and campaigns across the globe such as Stop Torture and My Body, My Rights.

After you fill out the contact form, I will contact you via email to schedule an initial 10-15-minute free video consultation, where we will discuss what issues you are experiencing and your potential goals for therapy. You can also ask me any questions about the therapy process. After your initial consultation, we can book your first in-depth session.

Before we start working together, I would like you to have the opportunity to read the therapy agreement to ensure your autonomy as a client is maintained and you are clear about the therapy you are to undertake.
