Yulia Raskina

I currently have availability for in-person sessions on Friday mornings and for online sessions on weekday mornings.

I am Yulia, a psychodynamic psychotherapist. Whether you’re working through anxiety, relationship difficulties, relocating to a new country, or changes in how you experience your body, I will meet you where you are and walk alongside you towards greater clarity, confidence and emotional steadiness. I’m here to support you in navigating life wherever you find yourself, in London, elsewhere in the UK, or living abroad.

I offer a reflective and relational space where you can slow down and reconnect with yourself to create impactful change. My work is grounded in a depth-based approach. I am interested not only in what is happening for you now, but also in how past experiences, relationships, and your inner world may continue to shape the present.

Together, we can gently explore the patterns and find a way to move from overthinking and fear towards living more fully. I can help you develop a deeper understanding, feel more confident in your decisions, and create healthier, more secure relationships with yourself and others. 

Who I work with

I am a BACP-registered psychodynamic therapist, holding an MSc in Psychodynamic Counselling and Psychotherapy from Birkbeck University of London. Over the past six years, I have worked in a range of settings, including suicide prevention charities and Higher Education.

Alongside working with a wide range of clients facing different challenges, I work extensively with artists and creative individuals, as well as people going through significant life transitions: immigration, career changes, endings, loss, and questions of identity. I also work with women navigating changes in their bodies, such as ageing, hair loss, or menopause.

I work one-to-one with adults and young adults, both in person and online. Sessions last 50 minutes and take place weekly. Alternative arrangements, such as longer or fortnightly sessions, can be discussed during the initial consultation.

We can begin with a free 20-minute introductory call, offering a space to talk about what brings you to therapy. During this conversation, you’ll have the opportunity to ask any questions and get a sense of how I work, and whether this feels like the right space for you.

After the call, you’re welcome to book a 50-minute initial consultation, offering a space for us to explore what working together might look like.

There is no expectation to commit to further sessions. Finding the right help can feel confusing, especially if you’re not yet sure what you need. A one-off assessment session can offer space to reflect and consider what kind of support might feel right for you.
