Therapist in Hampstead - Mandi Simons

Our team includes CBT, psychodynamic and integrative therapists as well as life coaches and hypnotherapists. We specialise in many different areas, such as depression, anxiety, bereavement, addiction, neurodiversity as well as relationship and family issues, allowing us to provide tailored individual help for a wide range of issues for adults, individual & couples, children & families.


Although we are all experts in several different fields, we all share the same approach of working with clients in an empathic, individual way, always focusing on your unique situation and your personal goals for therapy. We will provide you with a safe, confidential space to speak openly about how you are feeling and Mandi and her team will ensure you are matched with the most appropriate therapist to meet your needs with the best approach to suit you. This could be short-term CBT or person centred or long-term psychodynamic often incorporating mindfulness techniques.


If you’re interested in counselling or psychotherapy for yourself, as part of a couple, or for your family or child (ages 4 and up), please get in touch to book a free consultation. We offer sessions in person at one of our 3 comfortable, private consulting rooms in Hampstead, North West London (just a short walk from Hampstead and Belsize Park tube stations) or online, depending on what suits you best. We are here to offer flexible therapeutic support that fits your life and your current needs.

“I feel I have grown as a person since starting to come and see you and have developed the coping skills and insight to manage life so much better. The problems are still there (that’s life), but the way I deal with them is so different that life finally feels less of a battle, and more of a joy!”

Counselling and Psychotherapy

There are many reasons why you might be considering counselling and psychotherapy. Perhaps you are going through something specific, such as family issues, bereavements, depression, or addiction. You might be experiencing low mood/self-esteem, or feel like something in your life is wrong but can’t identify what it is. In moments like these, it is important to talk to someone in a safe, friendly, non-judgemental, strictly confidential space in order to process these emotions

How Can Counselling and Psychotherapy Help?

For many people, having a safe space to talk through their issues can be extremely helpful. Being able to speak freely, without fear of judgement, reduces the role difficult emotions play in your daily thinking. We help you manage the present moment in a healthier way through a two-pronged approach: 1, providing CBT-based solutions to address current negative or difficult thought patterns and emotions, and 2, taking a deeper psychodynamic look at where these feelings originate from, to ensure they don’t continue to manifest in the future.

A Variety of Approaches

Counselling & psychotherapy are most effective when you apply insights gained during sessions to the rest of your week. Your therapist may set weekly homework (provided you are comfortable with this) such as writing down important pointers that allow you to further explore certain areas of your life. Take a look at our How We Work page to learn more about the different therapeutic styles provided by our team of professionals.

Online Sessions

Many clients have found online counselling and psychotherapy to be extremely beneficial, as they can receive help from the comfort of their own home. Video/ online sessions allow for greater flexibility and ensure you don’t miss sessions.

We will continue to offer counselling over Zoom as an alternative to face-to-face sessions. We understand that you may be busy with childcare and/or work commitments, so you are free to move between counselling on online and in-person as often as you like.

Groups

Group sessions 2024 coming soon.

Clock

Urgent Appointments

If you require an urgent appointment for individual, couples or family therapy, get in touch with us by email or text and provide some brief details, as well as your availability.

We aim to arrange an appointment with one of our therapists within 24 hours, and sometimes even on the same day.

Mindfulness Sessions

We offer Mindfulness and Wellbeing sessions for businesses and private groups either in person or online. Groups can be as small as four or as large as 40 people (online), depending on your needs. Parenting groups are also proving to be in high demand; these sessions are offered to support parents – either privately or in the workplace – who find themselves struggling with challenges they or their children are facing.

Counselling in the Workplace

As an employer, it is important to provide your workforce with the right support as they return to the office or continue to work from home. That is why we offer a form of confidential workplace counselling that is personalised to the specific needs of each individual employee, acting as a more specialised alternative to larger and more conventional EAP (Employee Assisted Programme) providers.


Visit our Workplace Counselling page to see a full outline of how we can deliver tailored counselling to your employees.

“Having never considered counselling of any kind previously I am now a big advocate, and Mandi has all the tools and experience to give anyone visiting her the confidence that they will be in good hands.”

Initial 30-Minute Consultation

To guarantee you receive a therapy approach that is right for you, we offer a 30-minute introductory consultation which is free of charge online via Zoom or by phone. These consultations are either with Mandi or Sebastian; based on our initial consultation we will then match you with a member of our team who is best placed to meet your needs.

Our Team

We offer a wide selection of different specialists, from CBT practitioners to person-centered counsellors, allowing us to select a counsellor whose area of expertise matches your needs, with sessions available on evenings, early mornings, and weekends. Clients can often be seen the next day and usually within a week. We are trained to work with all ages, including children from age 5 upwards.
