Francesca Lupu
Hi, I am Francesca, and I am a trainee psychotherapist working towards becoming accredited. Starting therapy can feel both scary and exciting, as I remember feeling the same way. For me, therapy became a safe space to explore and understand myself, and I aim to offer that same space for my clients. Our journey together can shift and focus on whatever matters most to you, but above all, therapy is a place to allow yourself to feel.
I am currently in my second year of a MSc in Therapeutic Counselling, and I am a BACP registered member. My approach is integrative humanistic, combining person-centred and psychodynamic methods, among others. This allows me to explore both present experiences and past influences to understand feelings and behaviour patterns. I aim for sessions to feel authentic, real conversations between two people.
For me the relationship between client and therapist is the centre of the work, crucial for us to build trust. I understand how feeling vulnerable can become frightening, so I value the notion of being equals in this professional relationship. My experience in mental health over the past years allowed me to work with a variety of clients, addressing topics such as addiction, family dynamics, anxiety, loneliness, trauma, relational trauma and stress.
As an immigrant, I’ve come to understand how challenging major life transitions can be. This perspective deeply influences my work and allows me to connect with those experiencing change or feeling out of place. I offer sessions in English and Romanian, and I embrace the uniqueness of every person’s journey.

Sometimes life changes in ways we never expected.
Whether you are facing grief, anxiety, depression, the emotional impact of illness, relationship difficulties, stress, burnout or another significant life challenge, therapy can offer an opportunity to make sense of your experiences, better understand yourself, and find a way forward that feels right for you.
I offer a space where you can explore what you are experiencing and what matters most to you. My approach is integrative and informed by existential psychology, recognising that emotional difficulties can affect not only how we feel, but also our identity, relationships, choices and sense of direction. Together, we can strengthen resilience, deepen self-understanding, and find a way forward that feels right for you.
I have a particular interest in supporting people through significant life changes and unexpected challenges, helping them strengthen resilience, make sense of difficult experiences and move forward with hope. My clinical experience includes working with Cruse Bereavement Support, Rethink Mental Illness, and the Stroke Association, where I supported stroke survivors and their families.
I am a Doctoral Trainee in Counselling Psychology and Psychotherapy (DCPsych), a UKCP Student Member, a BACP Student Member, and a Graduate Member of the British Psychological Society (BPS).
Sessions are available in English and Russian.
Daniel Moore
Emotions are made up of many different colours and flavours, and I seek to see the world as you see it, to be there alongside you as you explore the rich possibilities of experiences, especially the ones that are most difficult to accept in ourselves. I know that, often, day-to-day life doesn’t afford us the time to sit with who we are instead of who we ‘should’ be. I feel privileged to be able to offer people the space to be who they are.
My approach is rooted in person-centered and experiential theory, which means that clients are accepted as whole, complex and multi-faceted people. Our counselling relationship is the place where you can experience yourself fully without fear of judgement, perhaps for the first time. I work with bringing your attention back into the body and connect with your felt senses in a safe and warm environment. I seek to be an active part of the therapeutic relationship by listening to your experiences and letting you feel understood. You’ll also see me bring my genuine self and my personality to the time we share together.
I have lived experience of the struggles that many people face, as an equal person within the world we inhabit. I’ve been involved in many different professional fields, such as financial services, retail and house removals. This has brought me into contact with all sorts of people, from all sorts of backgrounds. I have particular interest in social anxiety, personal identity and different types of relationship configurations, traditional and non-traditional alike. I’m a registered student member of the BACP and am currently working on a level 4 diploma in person-centered and experiential counselling.
Gemma Turner
I am a Pluralistic Psychotherapist in training, registered with the NCPS. My approach is relational, placing a trusted, non-judgemental therapeutic relationship at the heart of my work. I draw from psychodynamic, humanistic, and CBT approaches, and we work collaboratively to shape a counselling process that is tailored to you—exploring both the “how” and the “why” of your experiences.
Alongside my psychotherapy training, I hold a BA in Education and I am a qualified hypnotherapist and creative therapeutic practitioner, which I integrate where helpful.
I bring over 25 years’ experience in senior leadership and client-facing roles across education, health, and the charity sector, including work in women’s centres and trauma-informed services. I have extensive experience supporting adults and children with disabilities, as well as their families, with a focus on individual needs and lived experience.
I work with clients navigating trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, relationship and communication difficulties, and significant life transitions—including parenthood, fertility, leaving home, and university. I also support birth trauma, attachment difficulties, and the emotional complexities of family life.
I understand that feelings such as anxiety, sadness, anger, loneliness, or shame can feel overwhelming. I offer a warm, down-to-earth, and non-judgemental space where you can explore your experiences at your own pace, develop self-understanding, and find a way forward that feels meaningful and manageable.
I support:
• Anxiety and stress
• Attachment issues
• Depression, grief, and loss
• Trauma (past and present)
• Emotional regulation and anger
• Relationship difficulties
• Chronic and acute health conditions
• Life transitions (including parenthood, menopause, ageing, and mortality)
• Birth trauma
Megan Binding
Megan is a trainee counsellor working towards her BSc (Hons) in Person-Centred Pluralistic
Counselling and is a registered student member of the BACP. She offers a warm,
non-judgemental space where clients can explore whatever is present for them, at their own
pace.
Megan’s practice is rooted in Carl Rogers’ person-centred approach, built on the belief that
every person holds the capacity for growth and self-understanding (the actualising tendency)
when met with genuine empathy, unconditional positive regard, and congruence. Working
pluralistically, Megan also draws on a range of therapeutic ideas and tools where helpful,
tailoring the work to what each client needs rather than applying a fixed model.
Before training as a counsellor, Megan spent several years working with young people with
complex needs in a school setting, giving her a strong grounding in supporting people through
difficult transitions, communication differences, and emotional distress. This background
continues to inform her practice, particularly her attentiveness to how people express
themselves in ways that go beyond words.
Megan is particularly interested in supporting clients navigating grief and loss, life transitions,
and questions of identity and self-worth. She believes therapy works best as a collaborative
relationship, one where the client is the expert on their own life, and the counsellor’s role is to
walk alongside them with care, honesty, and patience.
Megan is currently building her client hours through supervised placement work as part of her training.
Ciaran Ball
I offer a calm, steady and collaborative space where clients can explore what feels difficult, confusing or overwhelming. My therapeutic approach is integrative, drawing on cognitivebehavioural, existential, systemic and psychodynamic models. I aim to help clients make sense of, process, and find new ways of living with their experiences. This allows me to work flexibly, meeting clients where they are and helping them make sense of, process, and find new ways of living with their experiences. I am particularly interested in how people relate to their inner world, how patterns form over time, and how therapy can support a more compassionate and sustainable relationship with oneself.
My background includes over a decade in mental-health, safeguarding, and leadership within a leading child protection and safeguarding charity where I developed strong skills in person-centred counselling, risk assessment, and traumainformed practice. I currently work as a CBT therapist in primary care, supporting clients with trauma, anxiety, and depression that exists alongside their physical health conditions. These experiences have shaped my ability to hold complexity with care and to support clients who may feel uncertain, overwhelmed or unsure how to move forward.
I am in my final year of the Doctorate in Counselling Psychology and Psychotherapy and I am committed to antioppressive and clientcentred work. I am known for a grounded presence, clear boundaries, thoughtful communication and an ability to help clients feel safe enough to explore what matters to them. I hope to contribute to a service where clients feel understood, supported and empowered in their therapeutic journey.

Lucy Elston
What would it mean to feel truly at home in your own life – to move through the world with a clearer sense of who you are and what you value?
Perhaps you’ve been feeling disconnected – from others, from yourself, or from a sense of direction. Perhaps something feels unresolved, but it’s hard to put into words. These are the kinds of questions therapy can help you sit with and explore.
My name is Lucy, and I’m currently completing my doctoral training in Counselling Psychology. I’m registered with the British Psychological Society (BPS) and the Universities Psychotherapy and Counselling Association (UPCA). My approach is integrative, drawing on a range of therapeutic frameworks, with an existential focus. What that means in practice is that our sessions will feel like genuine dialogue – open, active, and collaborative. I’m not here to hand you a formula; I’m here to work alongside you, helping you reconnect with the inner resources you already have.
At the centre of our work is a simple but important question: how do you make sense of the world? I’m less interested in fitting your experience into a category, and more interested in understanding your unique story – the values, the tensions, the things that feel unanswered. My hope is that through our work together, you’ll develop a stronger sense of what truly matters to you, and feel more confident in how you choose to live.
If this feels like the kind of space you’ve been looking for, I’d love to hear from you.
Helen Szpila
Helen provides a warm, empathic and non-judgemental space where clients can explore their feelings and experiences safely. As a trainee Transactional Analysis psychotherapist, she works within a framework that looks at the patterns we learn early on — in how we relate to others, how we talk to ourselves, and the roles we fall into without realising it. Her practice is grounded in a collaborative therapeutic relationship, helping clients notice these patterns as they show up, understand where they came from, and choose something different going forward.
Helen has a particular interest in relationship difficulties, those experiencing grief, anxiety and depression, and works with adults carrying the quieter kind of pain that doesn’t always have a name — just a sense of not feeling like yourself. She believes therapy should be an honest, non-judgemental space, where clients difficult feelings are met with curiosity rather than judgement. As a trained yoga teacher her psychotherapy practice is grounded in the somatic experience of the body and the mind connection.
Helen is a trainee psychotherapist completing an MSc in Transactional Analysis Psychotherapy and is a registered member of the UKCP. She works under regular clinical supervision, in line with the UKCP’s ethical framework for good practice.
