Kiara Naidoo Person-Centred Psychotherapist London E8Kiara Naidoo:

Person-Centred Trainee-Psychotherapist (UKCP student member)

Hi, I am Kiara Naidoo and I am a trainee psychotherapist working in the Person-Centred Approach.

The search for therapy can often be challenging with pressure to find an option that works practically and the feelings or difficulties that may have sparked the urge to seek it in the first place, and possible apprehension around what the therapeutic process may be like.

In this approach, you lead the process, we will go at your pace and anything you want to bring is welcome.

I believe in the power of acceptance, non-judgement and empathy and the importance of it all being there right at the start.

The Person-centred approach champions the idea that the client is an expert in themselves and their own lives and that the therapeutic relationship will best serve them if it honours this.

In this process, I will not be offering instructions or direction, rather trusting that as time goes on and we explore together the issues you want to share that clarity and your understanding will be more available where perhaps they have felt unattained previously.

I simply want to be a supportive, truthful and helpful companion to face problems together. It is important that your thoughts and concerns are able to be brought to therapy and I welcome honesty and openness.

My professional background includes working in the National Probation Service, working with clients who were on Probation and also in Modern Slavery Victim Care, supporting people who have experienced modern slavery and human trafficking.

In these roles, I practised working in a trauma-informed way and I met people from different backgrounds and experiences, with different needs, and I believe in welcoming every person and valuing their individual identities.

Identity is unique to every person, I believe in welcoming diversity and valuing everyone’s personal experience, with respect and interest.

I am currently training at Metanoia Institute on the programme, MSc Person-Centred Psychotherapy and Applications. I work online at HQ Therapy and offer sessions 7pm onwards on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why Should I Seek Therapy?

Many people, new to this type of help, believe that they need to be suffering from “mental illness” or serious “psychological problems”, or be in crisis in order for therapy and counselling to be appropriate for them. This is a common misconception; anyone can benefit from therapy when it comes to helping you deal with your personal feelings and problems, make positive changes in your life, and understand yourself better.

So what is therapy and counselling? If you’re new to this world then the first steps can sometimes be the most difficult. Therapy can be a very effective treatment for a whole range of personal problems covering areas from physical and emotional problems, different types of behavioural disorders, through to human sexuality issues and a host of wellbeing and complementary therapy techniques.

Any problem you have that is causing you concern, anxiety or distress is a valid and appropriate reason to reach out and find a therapist and talk to them about it. Far from something to be ashamed of, acknowledging your vulnerability and asking for help is a sign of maturity and strength.

If you feel that you have a desire and are committed to making changes in your life in order to overcome your current problems and achieve more long-term satisfaction, psychological wellbeing and personal fulfilment, then you are ready to seek therapy. We are here to help you work through a wide range of therapy issues that might be troubling you.

Will Information About Me Be Safe & Secure?

It is quite normal to be hesitant when it comes to sharing private and intimate information about yourself with a stranger. You may fear that you will receive judgment from your therapist, or that your therapist will share your details with others.

HQ Therapy Rooms takes your privacy and confidentiality very seriously. Our therapists are required to keep everything said in therapy sessions between you, just like your doctor is required to keep your records private.

For therapy to be effective, there must be unconditional trust built between you and your therapist, and this relies on a shared understanding of confidentiality. It applies to the outside world as well: it is standard practice for therapists not to acknowledge their clients if they run into them outside of the therapy rooms in order to help protect their client’s confidentiality. Read our full privacy policy for more information.

Can I Contact You For Advice About Getting Therapy?

Talking about your thoughts and feelings with a supportive therapist can often make you feel better and help you face your problems. It feels good to be listened to and to know that someone cares about you and wants to help. It is important that you find a therapist with whom you feel comfortable and can build a trusting relationship to help you make positive changes in your life.

But how do you know what type of therapy is right for you? Taking the first steps in finding the right therapist can be the biggest hurdle for newcomers, so we have made it easy. Simply get in touch with us using the low-cost help and advice form and one of our fully qualified therapists can work with you to make sure you get the right advice you need in order to receive the correct low-cost therapy and counselling services you require.
