Ntale Eastmond

I offer individual and relationship counselling and psychotherapy in South London (SE1) and online

I work with adult individuals, couples and people in multiple partner relationships

In my practice, I deeply value and respect the diversity that makes each of us uniquely human. I understand that our lives are shaped by a rich tapestry of experiences, extending beyond our individual journeys to include the influences of our families, our heritage, the communities we belong to, and the wider society we navigate. With a trauma-informed lens, I recognise the profound impact these interconnected experiences can have, and I approach our work together with sensitivity and awareness.

My clients approach me for a variety of reason. Whatever your reason, I will support you to make meaning and create change by providing an empathic therapeutic relationship. While it is important to nurture a support network, speaking to someone trained to be beside you as you navigate what can often be a painful journey of healing can be incredibly helpful. My role will be to meet you, authentically, and stand beside you in your exploration of whatever you choose to bring to therapy. Unusual though it may sound, my ultimate goal will be to put myself out of a job.

Choosing the right therapist for you is an important decision to make at the beginning of this journey. As such, I offer you a free call to help you decide whether I am the person you'd like to work with. I recognise the disproportionate challenges experienced by racialised people, people who are LGBTQ+, survivors, migrants, refugees, and people who are otherwise marginalised along lines of gender, ethnicity, or sexual or relationship diversity. I warmly invite these experiences into my practice.

Therapy can last a long or short time after the free initial consultation. We will agree on how many sessions we will have before our first review (usually 6-10 session), but the length of therapy is always up to you. 

My approach to therapeutic practice is rooted in understanding psychological distress to be the result of unequal structures of social and historical dis/order. I will help you to feel oriented first within your personal story, then those of you and your closest loved ones, and the structures that shaped those stories, before supporting you to develop the tools to take control of your future.

Sessions will take place either in person or remotely and last 50 minutes. 

My hope is that one day you will feel able to take what you learn and experience in our therapy journey and apply it to both your own life and allow it to work through you in ways that change the structures that generate psychological distress.
