Bilge Ozbudun

I am a senior Psychodynamic Psychotherapist and supervisor based within the NHS working with long-term health conditions, alongside a private practice offering both in-person and online sessions. Previously, I worked in an inpatient setting at The Priory in North London.

My approach is grounded in the principles of psychodynamic psychotherapy, which explores the influence of unconscious processes, early relational experiences, and the dynamics that emerge within the therapeutic relationship. 

I offer therapy at least once weekly and for 50 minutes per session. 

People can seek therapy for many reasons and it is not until we are in session together that we can fully explore your reason for seeking therapy. Therapy is a commitment and a mutual collaboration and we discuss your experiences in a confidential setting and meaningful exchange.

Group Therapy:

Alongside individual work, I facilitate group therapy, providing a reflective space for shared exploration, support, and psychological growth.

Autism Assessments:

In addition to clinical therapy, I conduct autism assessments using gold-standard diagnostic tools: the ADOS-2 and the ADI-R. These structured assessments are suitable for adolescents and adults seeking clarity around neurodiversity, and are carried out with clinical rigour and sensitivity.

Supervision:

I also offer psychodynamic supervision for both qualified therapists and those in training. Whether you’re in private practice or working in a clinical setting, I aim to provide a thoughtful, collaborative space to support your therapeutic thinking and professional development.

Supervision sessions are held remotely and in person.

I offer both long-term and short-term therapy.

Sessions are available face-to-face or online;  whilst I believe in-person work offers a deeper connection and therapeutic immediacy, I also understand the practical benefits of remote sessions and am happy to accommodate them where appropriate.

Our first meeting would be an initial consultation; a first meeting and an opportunity for you to discuss what brings you to therapy and for us to think together about your concerns.

We’ll also review the therapeutic contract, and you’ll be welcome to ask any questions you may have about the process.

I offer psychodynamic supervision to therapists at all stages of their professional journey — from trainees to experienced practitioners. My approach is reflective and collaborative, aiming to support your clinical thinking, emotional attunement, and development of a robust therapeutic stance.

Whether you are working in private practice, organisational settings, or training placements, supervision can offer a vital space to explore the complexities of clinical work, transference and countertransference dynamics, and the emotional impact of the therapeutic relationship.

Sessions are held remotely, offering flexibility and consistency. I also work with therapists preparing for accreditation or navigating professional transitions.

In addition to individual supervision, I facilitate group supervision and reflective practice spaces for organisations.

Psychodynamic supervision is a reflective process where we explore and deepen their understanding of their clinical work through the lens of psychodynamic theory. It focuses on the unconscious dynamics that influence both the supervisee and the client within the therapeutic relationship.

Our first supervision session is a space to discuss your current clinical work, your professional context, and what you’re hoping to gain from supervision. It’s also an opportunity to get a feel for how we might think and work together. We’ll explore any immediate supervisory needs, and there will be time to ask questions and clarify the practicalities of the arrangement.
