Marie-Helene Rynwalt Psychodynamic Psychotherapist London E8Marie-Helene Rynwalt:

Psychodynamic Psychotherapist Trainee (BACP student member)


Hi, my name is Marie-Helene Rynwalt. I am a trainee psychodynamic psychotherapist working in the low-cost therapy and counselling service at HQ Therapy Rooms in Haggerston and Dalston, Hackney, London E8.

I offer long-term psychodynamic psychotherapy to adults to explore issues, pains or worries that come up for them without judgment and with confidentiality. I provide a supportive and safe space.

I know that first contacting a therapist is not always an easy thing to do, and can provoke anxiety.

An initial meeting is a chance for us to get to know each other, and for you to see if you feel comfortable talking to me.

The type of therapy I offer, psychodynamic psychotherapy, looks at the unconscious influences which shape our thoughts, feelings and behaviour.

We will work together to get a better understanding of how these influences might be affecting you so that you can build a better relationship with yourself and others.

Psychodynamic Psychotherapy takes at its core the understanding that our childhood and past experiences affect how we think, feel, and behave as adults albeit often without our conscious knowing.

You may experience bodily, emotional, or behavioural symptoms but are unable to make sense of them in the context of your life.

I offer both Dutch-speaking and English-speaking therapy. I understand the importance of creating a space where you feel understood and heard, regardless of language barriers or cultural differences.

 

Experience and Education:

  • I am currently in psychodynamic psychotherapy training with the Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation, working towards an accreditation with the BPC.
  • I have a certificate from the Institute of Psychoanalysis on their Foundation Course and I am a trainee member with the BACP.
  • I have experience volunteering with a charity that works with people who feel life is no longer worth living and experience suicidal ideation.
  • I have also worked one-on-one with SEND students at schools in London, providing them with emotional and academic support.

I very much look forward to hearing from you.

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.

Our practitioners deal with a wide range of therapy issues using different types of therapy modalities tailored to the types of clients we work with. We also cater for people who are beset with financial difficulties, offering them services ranging from low-cost therapy and reduced-rate therapy to working with seasoned, qualified and accredited talking therapists.
