Counselling and psychotherapy in Willesden Green, Kilburn North West London
Hello, my name is Teresa Sinani (formerly Kain). I am a qualified and experienced Integrative Psychotherapist and Counsellor based in Willesden Green, near Kilburn in North West London.
It is often the first step that is the hardest when reaching out for support. It takes courage and I will be mindful of this when you make contact with me. People turn to therapy for a variety of reasons, we can all experience difficulties and emotional pain from time to time. It can feel lonely, confusing and even overwhelming trying to make sense of our experiences. Therapy offers a space to offload the weight of any internal/external difficulties, providing a sense of relief and perhaps feeling lighter for sharing our troubles.
I can appreciate that it may not feel easy or appropriate to talk to family or friends. Therefore, a confidential, neutral space, to bring your difficulties can be helpful. This will allow you to be listened too, with empathy and non-judgement.
It is not uncommon when reaching out for professional support that you may feel like your weak or failing. We can often have high expectations of ourselves to be brave and get on with things. This coupled with the stigma around asking for help, means, we can feel we have to manage things on our own and not show vulnerability. My belief has always been that it is a courageous step in being able to heal. It takes strength, openness and commitment.
Therapy is not about fixing you or offering advice. It is a process of exploration, facilitated by a holding and containing environment. I am interested in what's bringing you to therapy, what you want to understand about yourself and how you can begin to heal. My approach is compassionate and intuitive. I aim to work with you in a collaborative and empowering way. The therapy relationship and process will aid insight, self-awareness and healing to occur
I have vast experience working with a variety of client’s in my professional life and embarked on extensive psychotherapy training. My motivation to train as a therapist was due to my own personal therapy journey, which I found healing and gave me the tools to move forward in my life. I have been working in human services for over 20 years in a variety of settings.
I am experienced working with a diverse range of clients presenting with a variety of issues, including; depression, anxiety, stress, burnout, low self-esteem, low confidence, relationship issues and childhood trauma.
