Debbie Ninnis

Currently have availability on Friday afternoons from October.

I operate from a practice in London Bridge / Borough - very close to the train station.

I'm a psychodynamic psychotherapist working with adults who wish to understand not just what they're struggling with, but why, and how it may connect to their history. Psychodynamic work rests on the idea that our earliest relationships leave an imprint: patterns formed in childhood and beyond often reappear in the relationships and difficulties we face today. Together, we explore those connections, bringing what's unconscious into conscious awareness so that old patterns can loosen their grip.

I specialise in working with relational difficulties both at home and in the workplace, anxiety, substance misuse, disordered eating, self-harming and addictive behaviours. Many of the people I work with feel stuck in cycles they don't fully understand or find themselves repeating dynamics they'd rather leave behind. My role is to offer a steady, honest, non-judgemental space where those patterns can be looked at properly, often for the first time.

I trained at Birkbeck University, where I gained my MSc in Psychodynamic Counselling and Psychotherapy, and I am registered with the BACP and BPC. 

Therapy with me will provide an opportunity to develop real insight into yourself, at a pace that feels safe, so that change can be lasting rather than superficial.

I offer an initial 75-minute consultation, where we'll take time to explore what's brought you to therapy and get a sense of whether we're a good fit to work together.
