Julia Martinez

I have a flexible schedule during the week, with sessions available from 10 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. Monday to Friday. Please contact me to check my availability.

During the initial call, which is free of charge and lasts for up to 30 minutes, we will have the opportunity to check our chemistry with each other. You can briefly tell me about yourself and your specific needs, and I will ask you some questions to help me understand how best to support you. Together, we will discuss the practicalities of the sessions, such as scheduling and session length, to ensure that we can work together effectively.

As an integrative psychotherapist, I specialise in working with both young people and adults. I believe that every person is unique and therefore requires a tailor-made approach to healing. My combination of therapeutic methods, including psychotherapy, life coaching, and mind-body therapy, is designed to help individuals overcome their struggles and attain desired balance in life. I help people to overcome conditions such as eating disorders, emotional disregulation, depression, anxiety, trauma and self-harming.

Together, we can explore both the present and the past to uncover the root cause of what is troubling you. By developing the ability to see things from a different perspective, we can identify more helpful strategies to overcome these issues. My approach is based on psychodynamic and developmental psychology, as well as mind-body and relational therapy. I work with my clients to understand the source of their challenges, promote emotional self-regulation, and empower them to take control of their lives.

Mind-body therapy can help release trauma and other stuck emotions, while life coaching can facilitate positive changes. I find it especially rewarding to work with adolescents, as it is a critical period of development when we can address and alter traumatic experiences. By working together during this time, we can help young people grow into strong, confident, and happy adults.

I am here to help.

I offer comprehensive services that cater to both in-person and online clients. My physical practice is located in the beautiful Chigwell area, about a 10-minute walk from the nearest tube station. For clients travelling by car, there is easy parking available.

I also offer online consultations via Zoom. Whether you choose to visit me in person or connect with me virtually, I am committed to providing you with the highest quality of service and care.

The therapy sessions are 50 minutes long and incorporate creative approaches such as metaphoric cards, imagination, and art for those who struggle with self-expression.

 Opening up to a stranger and revealing your vulnerabilities can be very challenging. I make it my top priority to create an atmosphere where you feel comfortable and safe so that you can share your thoughts and feelings with freedom and ease.

Our first session is your opportunity to get to know me and for me to get to know you. We can have a conversation where you tell me your story or maybe answer some of my questions. More importantly, you can take your time and share as much or as little as you feel comfortable with.
