Tina Sapanidis

I’m currently welcoming new clients for both online and in-person therapy.

I have some new daytime appointments available on Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday mornings, as well as limited early evening appointments on Mondays and Wednesdays.

If one of these times works for you, I’d be very happy to arrange a free introductory video or audio call. This gives us an opportunity to meet, talk a little about what has brought you to therapy, and explore whether I might be the right therapist for you.

If you’d like to find out more or have any questions, please feel free to get in touch.

Hello and a warm welcome!

My name is Tina. I was born and raised in France and moved to England at the age of 21. I hold a BSc (Hons) in Counselling and am a qualified Person-Centred Psychotherapist, working with adults and young people.

I was drawn to psychotherapy through my love of people and my desire to do meaningful work. I am passionate about the empowerment that comes through self-discovery and personal growth.

I bring curiosity, dedication and compassion to the therapeutic process. My aim is to create a safe, authentic and non-judgemental relationship where you can express yourself openly and explore what may be troubling you. As a Person-Centred practitioner, I believe you are the expert in your own life and, with the right support and space, can draw on your inner resources to find a way forward.

As a registered BACP member, I work within their ethical framework, with a strong emphasis on confidentiality, safety and professionalism. I receive regular supervision and continue to develop my practice through ongoing training. I also hold an Enhanced DBS certificate and am fully insured.

Alongside my private practice in Greenwich and London Bridge, I volunteer with The Deborah Ubee Trust. I have also volunteered in schools with Place2Be. I can integrate creative approaches which offer alternative ways to express feelings and experiences.

As a native French speaker, I can conduct therapy in French. I understand how meaningful it can be to reconnect with your language and culture of origin when exploring personal experiences and identity. Having moved to London as a young adult and built my family life here, I have personal experience of adapting to a different culture while maintaining a connection to my roots.

As a mum of three, I also understand some of the joys and challenges that can come with parenthood and family life. I bring this understanding to my work while remaining mindful that every person's experience is unique.

At times, life’s challenges can feel overwhelming and leave us feeling stuck. I offer a safe, supportive and non-judgemental space where you can feel heard, understood and accepted. My approach is rooted in the Humanistic tradition, which values kindness, compassion and genuine care. Clients often describe my style as gentle, empathic, collaborative and authentic. I approach each person with curiosity and a genuine commitment to understanding their unique experience.

Through my own journey to becoming a psychotherapist, I have also sat in the client’s chair. I understand that therapy can be both challenging and transformative. At the heart of my work is the therapeutic relationship: creating a space where you can bring your authentic self without fear of judgement. Together, and at your pace, we can explore areas of difficulty or feeling stuck, while working towards greater self-understanding, resilience and positive change.

Over the years, I have gained extensive experience working with adults, children, teenagers and young adults across a wide range of issues, including:

• Anxiety and stress

• Trauma and abuse

• Bereavement, grief and loss

• Relationship difficulties

• Low self-esteem

• Self-harm and suicidal thoughts

• Life transitions and personal change

Initial Consultation

I offer a free 20-minute initial consultation over the phone or video call, where we can decide if we are a good fit to work together. This is a mutual assessment and an opportunity for you to share what brings you to therapy and for me to explain how I work. By the end of the call, we should both have a sense of whether moving forward feels right. There is no obligation to continue after this stage. You can contact me by email to arrange your initial consultation.

Sessions & Fees

£55 – Online (50 minutes)

£70 – In person (50 minutes)

Fees are payable in advance, and I will send you my bank details before your first session.

Depending on your needs, I can offer short-term therapy (6–8 sessions), time-limited therapy, or open-ended long-term therapy.

Cancellations & Breaks

I take breaks at regular intervals throughout the year, usually during half-term and school holidays, and will give you as much notice as possible. If you need to cancel a session, please provide at least 24 hours’ notice. For cancellations with less than 24 hours’ notice, the session fee remains payable. If I ever need to cancel, you will not be charged for that session.
