Rita Mazzucchelli

I am currently accepting new clients. I have available slots  Tues am/pm, Thurs am/pm. Working hours 9:00am - 8.00pm. I offer limited Saturday slots.

I am an Integrative therapist, member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. I work with a wide range of clients who experience anxiety, low mood, difficulties with relationships, sense of connection, low self-esteem, fear of rejection and abandonment, or lived through adverse childhood experiences. Sometimes it is difficult to understand what causes us distress, or lack of fulfilment, and we can experience a range of uncomfortable feelings, while struggling to make sense of them. 

Maybe you second-guess yourself, and feel stuck, or find it difficult to say no. Perhaps you struggle to create relationships and maintain them and feel anxious in social situations while longing to feel comfortable in your own skin. Maybe you experience conflicting impulses within yourself.

If you are experiencing any of these thoughts or feelings, I can support you with finding more clarity and developing the tools to improve your relationship with yourself and the world. As an integrative therapist I will look at your concerns from different angles, depending on your needs. We may talk about the present and the past as I adapt my approach to you.  I'm here to listen to you, and help you understand your feelings and story. I will offer you empathy, acceptance, and a genuine commitment to support you in journey to you.

I understand that taking the step to approach a therapist can be challenging in itself. I am committed to build a relationship with you based on trust, empathy, honesty, and openness, and create a safe and confidential space to allow you to be true to yourself. I feel that each human experience is unique and I bring genuine care for the client's well-being. 

I offer online sessions (£60/session) and in person sessions (£70/session - location: East London). Each session is 50 minutes in duration.

During a 50 minutes initial consultation, we will have the chance to meet and discuss what brings you to therapy and what your expectations are. I will tell you more about me and my approach, and about the practical aspects involved in starting therapy. During this initial encounter, I may ask you some questions which will help me understand your needs, history and concerns. We will also have the chance to discuss and agree some important aspects of working safely together, such as confidentiality. This initial session is a chance for you to gauge whether we may be a good fit, and gather a little more information to help you decide whether you would like to book a follow up session. The fee for an initial session is £50.

If you would prefer to begin with a brief introduction, I also offer a free 15 minutes introductory video call.
