My theoretical background lies strongly in philosophy, due to this I have chosen to pursue a career in existential psychotherapy. Prior to starting my education with philosophy, psychotherapy and counselling, I completed a Bachelor of Science in Psychology with Middlesex University and worked with charities such as Mencap and Victim Support.

I am a registered MBACP, practicing existential psychotherapy. Currently I am working in a private practice with individuals. I work with my client’s lived experiences; including their values, their family history and system, their connections with the world and their relationships with others, their connection with their personal identity and with their purpose and meaning.  

I am an existential psychotherapist and a supervisor. My approach helps clients gain insight, facilitating change where necessary. Existential therapy offers clients a chance to engage with their emotions, reflect on their relationships and look at how they are living their lives. I have worked with anxiety, bereavement, identity crisis, gender dysphoria, and relationship issues amongst many other existential crisis that most of us experience throughout our life span. I am also a supervisor for psychotherapists, counsellors and other mental health practitioners.

I offer a warm, caring, respectful and honest attitude to therapy. My approach is in the form of dialogue, where we won't necessarily seek the solutions but rather seek the truth. A therapeutic relationship is build on mutual trust and facilitates a safe and confidential space which will allow us to explore your existential crisis together.

Our first session will cover an initial assessment, where we will explore your expectations and needs and discuss any questions you may have about the way I work with my clients. This is an opportunity for us to see how we will work together and if I am the right therapist for you. After this, we can commit to a further 6-12 sessions if you have a specific issue you want to work on, or longer open-ended work if appropriate. 

My fee is £80 per session. Each session is 50 minutes long. 

£120 per session for couples therapy.

I offer a limited number of concessionary spaces for certain circumstances from £50 - please contact me for availability. I offer sessions in person and online through Zoom.

My email address is: joanna.parkinson@hotmail.com

Please do get in touch and ask any questions you may have. No question is too small. Curiosity is the first step to discovering the unknown. 

I currently have some availability (mainly online). Please contact me for further details on:
