Hello, I am Juan. I have offered a private therapy practice since 2018 and supervision for the last two years.
I offer supervision as a relaxed, containing and explorative space, for trainee and qualified counsellors and psychotherapists.
I hold a Certificate in Supervision and have experience with 1:1 supervisees. As a supervisor, I aim to be clear, encouraging and appropriately challenging.
About me and my therapy practice
My training was integrative and transpersonal. I find that psychodynamic is good for thinking and linking. Gestalt is good for engaging with the here and now and the embodied process. The imaginal and mytho-poetic aspect of my transpersonal training allows for intuition and deeper sense of soul to emerge. Finally, the Jungian framework is at the heart of my approach and feels most authentically facilitative. If any of these descriptions resonate with you then perhaps we might be a match.
Practice description
As mentioned, my approach is integrative including developmental and archetypal psychology. The relational aspect is important too. Feel free to visit my website, for more about the frameworks that inform my approach and feel free to reach out to discuss things further.

About me and my therapy practice
Hello! I am Juan - a psychotherapist offering weekly therapy in London. As part of my ongoing professional development I also offer twice and three times a week analytic sessions. Towards choosing the right therapist it might be helpful to know a bit about me. My name (Juan Michael) reflects my mixed heritage. Naturally, I work well with people exploring their cultural/racial complexes and intergenerational traumas. I have been told I am a good listener, non-judgmental and that people experience me as present and attentive. Professionally, I am registered with the BACP and UKCP and adhere to their ethical frameworks.
I have dedicated my life to learning, growing and healing which also means engaging in shadow work and attempting to integrate a greater sense of self - usually through suffering. In that sense, therapy could be described as being about the growth of the personality. My ongoing analytic training means I am interested in the inner world and interior life.
I am experienced at putting people at ease though naturally at times therapy can be a bit uneasy. Relationships have always been at the core of my working life and I have experience with establishing a therapeutic relationship which could support your therapy journey. My training includes psychodynamic, integrative and jungian psychology.
Practice description
Therapy is an ongoing process and for my fee I ask £80 per session. I hope you would feel the ongoing value of your investment in yourself. If you are interested to work with me but, the fee is a little out of reach do get in touch and we can discuss it. I'm open to hear your financial context and agree something that works.
My first session
If you are interested in the possibility of sessions then do reach out and we can arrange an initial phone call and take things from there. It will be good to hear from you.
In terms of my qualifications, my basic training includes a diploma in counselling (BACP registered) and an advanced diploma in psychotherapy (UKCP registered). As part of my ongoing professional development I am undertaking further study in Jungian Analysis.
Also, things that can support the process of therapy in general are making a note of dreams from sleep, journaling, drawing and/or conscious movement (dance, Qi Gong, etc).
