Avishi Jalan

My working hours are Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. 

Sessions will take place online, so you can be speak to me from the comfort of your own home, or where ever you can find a safe and confidential space! 

Hello! I am an experienced psychodynamic therapist, and an individual member of the BACP. Having been born and brought up in India, and having studied and worked in the USA and UK, I have experience in working with individuals of diverse backgrounds. I have completed my masters education in psychodynamic therapy at The Goldsmiths University of London, and done a clinical placement in the NHS and at children's schools in London. 

I am currently a BAME Wellbeing Advisor at Together for Mental Wellbeing, based in Lewisham, where I continue to work with individuals struggling with their physical and mental health. 

I provide online counselling and psychotherapy, with experience in helping adults struggling with anxiety, depression, bereavement, addiction, self esteem, and relationship difficulties. 

I have also completed a diploma in Integrative Counselling in India, and incorporate elements of Rational Emotive Behavioural Therapy and Transactional Analysis into my practice. 

Starting therapy can be so difficult, and my main goal is to make you feel understood and supported throughout the process! Please feel free to ask me any questions you might have. 

I provide a confidential and non judgmental space to help my clients express themselves freely. My practice is deeply rooted in the past, and exploring the unconscious and subconscious processes that are manifested in my client's behaviour patterns and emotions. I use an empathetic approach to understand and connect with my clients, and subsequently strengthen our therapeutic relationship. 

Sessions are 50 minutes long, and can take place weekly, or biweekly- whichever you feel comfortable with. My main method of communication is via email. I charge 50 pounds for each session and concessionary rates are available- please contact me for further information. 

I offer a free, 20 to 30 minute consultation where you can ask me any questions you might have about my practice, about therapy and if you have any other concerns. Please feel free to email me to arrange a consultation!
