Tania Gessi

Do you feel stuck in the same relationships patterns?

Are you lacking in motivation, feeling lonely or disconnected, experiencing low self-esteem, or simply sensing that something isn’t quite right?

These feelings are more common than you think, and you’re not alone in experiencing them.

As a qualified psychotherapist, I'm dedicated to helping you navigate these challenges.

I provide a safe, empathic, and non-judgemental space where we will explore the thoughts, feelings, and behaviours that may be holding you back. Together, we will recognise and break free from self-defeating patterns. You will have the opportunity to reconnect with your innate worth, and develop effective coping strategies.

​Through our therapeutic partnership, my aim is to empower you to live a happier, healthier, and more fulfilling life.

I’m a BACP registered psychotherapist, and offer both short-term counselling and longer term, open-ended psychotherapy, depending on your needs. I can offer both online and in-person sessions. For those who prefer face-to-face sessions, my clinics are conveniently located in Islington, Bloomsbury and City of London.

Deciding to seek help can seem daunting and scary, and it takes courage to take that first step. I’m here to support you on your journey to healing and self-empowerment.

I trained as a person-centred psychotherapist, which means that I place you at the heart of the therapeutic process. Your experiences, values, and goals are the compass that guides our work together.

​I focus on my therapeutic relationship with you, as I believe that it is the quality of our therapeutic alliance that can bring about personal growth and transformation.

​I also use a diverse range of therapeutic techniques to meet your unique needs.

I work with a diverse range of individuals from various cultural, racial, gender and religious backgrounds.

To begin with, I offer a free introductory online or telephone session, during which we can discuss what has brought you to therapy and explore whether my approach aligns with your needs and goals.

​Each session lasts 50 minutes and my fees are as follows:

​Online sessions: £60 per session

​In-person sessions: £75 per session

​Payment is required in advance of sessions, and should be completed no later than 24 hours before the scheduled session time.

​​For those seeking longer-term counselling, I typically recommend working together for approximately 6 sessions initially. This allows us to gauge whether our therapeutic partnership is a good fit for your unique situation. If we decide to proceed, we will find a mutually convenient time during the week for our regular sessions.
