About me

Charmaine Zahra MBACP,

BSc (Hons) Psychology, PgDip Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy, IFS Therapy.

Distress is part of the human experience. Most of the time we are able to go through distress on our own or with the help of family and friends. However, at times, it might feel like the distress is beyond what we can handle, and we may decide to seek professional help.

As an integrative counsellor and psychotherapist I use a combination of modalities depending on what you need at different times during therapy. I employ a collaborative style based in acceptance and respect. This means that we do the work together in the way that suits you most. I believe that we both bring some expertise to the table. You are the expert on yourself and your life. I bring expertise in terms of my psychological training. Drawing on these two things is key in the counselling journey.

I am also an LGBTQ+ Affirmative therapist. Read about what this means to me here.

I am Maltese-born, but I have been living in London for many years, and I run a private practice from Wimbledon and Tooting. I also work online.
