Fiona Aitman

PLEASE NOTE: MY PRACTICE IS CURRENTLY FULL AND I AM UNAVAILABLE TO TAKE ON NEW CLIENTS UNTIL JUNE 2021

I am continuing to see clients for face-to-face appointments, respecting and complying with Government Guidelines and sanitising protocols, and a Covid-19 assessment will be undertaken before we meet.

Although I do work with young adults, I am unable to see anyone under the age of 17. I would however, be happy to speak over the phone to help with referring to someone best suited for you, or your child's needs.

I am a highly experienced counsellor and psychotherapist offering a safe, confidential and non-judgmental space in which to help you understand your emotional struggles and the thoughts and feelings that drive you.

I am psychodynamically trained which means I am able to observe how you relate to me, providing me with an understanding of how you might relate to others in your life. My role is then to reflect on your behaviour, whilst working with you to help recognise how your own life experiences might be affecting your current situation, and together we explore the patterns of thoughts which keep you from moving past your fears, anxieties and depressive feelings.

My experience:

I work extensively with clients with varying degrees of mental health concerns and I specialise in addictions, ADHD, anxiety/depression, relationship issues, and loss/bereavement.

I also have a particular interest in working with culturally diverse clients as well as sexually diversity.

Currently I work time part as a Counsellor at a London University where I see young adults experiencing a variety of emotional concerns. I have also worked for several years with individuals at Mind in Camden from the Phoenix Wellbeing and Recovery Service, a mental health service set up for adults experiencing distress through hearing voices, visions, unusual beliefs, paranoia, hopelessness and extremes of depressive moods as well as conditions including schizophrenia and personality disorders.

My private practice is situated in an alternative healthcare practice just off the high street in Mill Hill, North London, NW7. It is easily accessible by bus and train, a walking distance from Mill Hill Broadway Thameslink station. Parking is available on the forecourt of the centre.

You are welcome to contact me for an initial conversation via either email or phone (found at the top of my profile) to discuss any queries you might have, or to make an appointment to see me.

I don't charge for our initial phone consultation, whilst fees for the initial assessment appointment and any ongoing sessions apply thereafter.
