Nalan Gurpinar

Hello, my name is Nalan, and I believe that counselling helps my clients to process difficult and challenging thoughts or feelings which can be painful, and additionally by focusing on developing the unique potential of each client.

My approach is integrative, drawing upon the person centred approach to help clients explore present experiences, thoughts and feelings combined with a psychodynamic approach to gain insight from my client’s past experiences, relational patterns thoughts and behaviours that maybe influencing their present world. I also offer CBT alone or to compliment the above approaches.

My aim is to help my clients understand and manage their relationships in a healthier way, always adapting my approach to best suit my client needs. I also work to identify and strengthen my client’s inner resources in order to enable them to live a fuller, more satisfying life.

Currently, I provide a safe space on zoom to allow my clients to confidentially share their issues, in the knowledge that they will be fully heard and understood in an empathic manner. Please get in touch with any questions. 

With a background as a family lawyer, legal adviser and coordinator for a legal advice charity, I have great interest and experience in personal issues. I understand the internal and external pressures people can place on themselves that can lead to unhelpful or damaging coping strategies. Therefore, I work to identify healthier ways of managing emotions and stress. My experience includes working with anxiety, depression, isolation and loneliness as well as bereavement and loss.

Co-founder of Nyx Therapies Ltd, a private practice located in the heart of London. Previous experiences include counselling and psychotherapy at 'The Awareness Centre' for NHS clients as well as for the charity 'Third Age Counselling' for elders.

I offer sessions online or on the telephone offering a safe place for clients to share issues. In our initial session you can discuss your concerns, we can discuss how to work together and make a suitable plan depending on your needs.
