Fiona Davies Psychodynamic Counsellor London E8Fiona Davies:

Psychodynamic Counsellor (BPC)

Hello and welcome. My name is Fiona Davies and I am a BPC-accredited psychodynamic counsellor available for in-person and online sessions.

If you have come to this page it is probably because you are looking to make sense of things that are troubling you and which might be preventing you from living the life you deserve.

 

Why Now?
There are many reasons why someone seeks therapy; perhaps you have experienced trauma and need help to process things, or maybe you just have a feeling that ‘something’s not quite right’, but you don’t really know what that might be.

Whatever the reason, you have made the brave decision to reach out for the support and help you deserve. The decision to seek help is sometimes daunting, but don’t worry, this is completely normal.

Regular counselling can help you to move on with your life.

 

How It works
By contacting me you are already taking the first, important step to recovery and moving on with your life.  I am a fully qualified psychodynamic counsellor, accredited by the BPC. In our sessions, I will listen to whatever you choose to bring and talk about; this could be past experiences that impact your present, how you live your life now or how you experience relationships in the present.

Gradually, you will develop a deeper understanding of yourself, enabling you to move forward with your life. We can work on something specific you wish to understand about yourself or explore more general experiences and feelings.

 

Qualifications and experience
I am fully accredited by the British Psychoanalytic Council and have also undertaken courses on Solution-Focused Therapy with leading charity Chance UK. I undertook my counselling training at the Enfield Counselling and Psychotherapy Service, which means I have a rigorous knowledge of psychodynamic ways of thinking and working, as well as weekly clinical supervision.

Over the years I have developed a keen interest in clients presenting with issues surrounding body dysmorphia, OCD, depression and anxiety. I work therapeutically with adult clients across the North London region and also work part-time as a school counsellor in a large secondary school in Hackney.

 

What Happens Now?
Please get in touch with me using my contact details below. We will arrange with you a convenient time for an initial conversation where we will discuss whether counselling is something that will benefit you and is suitable for your needs. If you decide to progress with the sessions, we will arrange a day and time when we can regularly meet.

Each session will last for 50 minutes and ideally will take place weekly. If you would like to book an appointment or ask me any questions, do not hesitate to get in touch with me below..

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.
