Yulia Chernova

I am available at Borough House at various times Monday to Friday.

Hi, I’m Yulia.

I’m a compassionate, supportive, curious and patient therapist, who works hard to create safe and trusting relationships with my clients. My experience shows that good therapy work must be challenging at some point and I will find kind and constructive ways of questioning your thoughts and beliefs in order to help you see and understand things differently.

Therapy is time and space for you to talk, to talk about what is important, painful, confusing or maybe just relevant right now. It’s time and space to express experiences and feelings which have not been expressed before or to put words carefully around things which cannot be expressed yet. Maybe it’s time and space to say quite frankly what is on your mind without being criticised, or repeat something as many times as you need to get in touch with your feelings without being judged.

I see the person, who comes into my therapy room, not their diagnosis. We work together to understand your story, how you find yourself at your present point and how the ways of coping with what life has thrown at you might be contributing to the way you experience the world, others and yourself. We’re asking ‘what happened?’ rather than ‘what is wrong?’.

Our sessions will be mostly explorative and non-directive, we will follow what comes up for you and will work towards understanding rather than explanation. Therapy work is not a short term endeavour, as understanding and changing something, which happened a long time ago or took a long time to form, requires time too. Having said that, it is possible to work within a limited time frame, but it will require establishing a focus for our therapeutic work.

I have worked with clients who experience anxiety, depression, bereavement, bullying, suicide, loneliness, relationship difficulties, abandonment, trauma, questioning their sexuality, or just found themselves lost, stuck or disorientated at some point in their life.

Sessions happen usually at the same time every week and last 50 minutes.

The first session is free and allows us both to consider if we can work together.

Various times available at Claremont Project Monday to Friday.
