Milena Tsankova

I offer sessions at various hours to accommodate people with different working patterns. Please get in touch to find out more.

Whatever brings you here, I welcome you.

People seek therapy for many reasons at different points in their life. It can be specific events, issues in our relationships to others or ourselves, it can be dealing with the unexpected and the unknown.

You do not need to go through these times on your own.

I work with your needs in mind - therapy is open-ended, which means that you choose whether you would like to work together for a few sessions or longer-term. 

Whether you are faced with uncertainty or have specific themes you would like to explore in more depth in therapy, I offer therapeutic interventions centred around your needs based on a humanistic approach.

As person-centred counsellor I believe that you possess all the resources and insights that you need to grow intentionally into your direction. Our work together will be focused on fostering an empathic understanding and acceptance of who you are, as well as develop your ability to express yourself authentically. 

I work with clients from the person-centred model. Your process means how you relate to and express your feelings, thoughts and experiences.

This means I see you as the expert on yourself. You have your own wishes, goals, preferences, desires and our work will be grounded in who you are as a person.

My role is to offer a safe and professional relationship in which you feel heard and accepted for who you are. In a space that offers you empathic understanding, you are well supported in continuing your healing and growth process.

I have worked with clients who sought therapy for depression, bereavement, anxiety, low self-esteem, substance misuse, trauma, navigating intersectionality, family and relationship issues and more.

Our work will be highly individual. It will be based on the themes you want to bring in therapy, your pace of sharing in session, forming a connection and exploring your thoughts, feelings and experiences.

If what I offer sounds useful to you, we can schedule an initial session which is free of charge and lasts 50 minutes.

In the initial session, you will get a sense of what it is like to work with together. At the end, we will check in and if you would like to carry on working with me, I will provide you with a copy of the therapeutic contract to sign.

I will run through it with you and if you have any questions, I can answer these as we go along.
