Create space for your true self to emerge.

Jo’s approach to therapy is built on a simple but powerful belief: you already have the potential to grow, you just need the right environment to do it.

As a Humanistic therapist, Jo focuses on the here and now. Whether you are navigating the echoes of past trauma or feeling stuck in your current relationship, her goal isn’t just to “fix” a problem, but to walk alongside you as you rediscover your resilience.

How Jo can help:
• Individual Growth: Exploring self-acceptance and breaking free from the symptoms of anxiety and depression.
• Trauma Recovery: Understanding the somatic (body) and emotional impact of trauma to find empowerment.
• Relationship Support: Creating a safe space for couples to tackle communication, intimacy, or life’s biggest losses together.

Healing is a collaborative journey, and as Jo says: “This time is for you, for your voice to be heard, and for your healing to begin.”

We are often told that if we aren’t hard on ourselves, we’ll never improve. We’ve learned to use shame as a motivator, hoping it will drive us toward a “better” version of ourselves.
But shame is a restrictive architect. It doesn’t build; it only shuts us down.
In therapy, we learn that true, sustainable growth requires an internal foundation of safety. When you stop criticising your past survival strategies, you finally have the emotional space to organise your healing.
You cannot shame yourself into a version of yourself that you love.
Reflect: What would happen if you met your struggles with curiosity instead of criticism today?

We’re delighted to introduce Rebecca Goldie, S*x & Relationship Therapist at The London Practice.

Relationships shape how safe we feel, how we see ourselves, and how we move through the world. When connection feels strained, distant, or confusing — it doesn’t just stay in the relationship, it lives in our nervous system, our confidence, and our daily wellbeing.

Therapy offers a space to slow down, understand patterns, and create new ways of relating — with partners, and with yourself.

If you’ve been feeling stuck in repeating dynamics, struggling with intimacy, or navigating change together, support can make a real difference.

You won’t just listen at this event — you’ll leave different.

You’ll leave understanding why your mind reacts the way it does — in stress, in relationships, in self-doubt — and what you can actually do about it.

Expect to walk away with:
• Practical tools to regulate your nervous system in everyday life
• A clearer sense of how past patterns shape present reactions
• New ways to approach anxiety, shame and overwhelm with compassion
• Insight into habits that quietly run your mood, behaviour and relationships
• A felt sense that change isn’t just possible — it’s understandable

This isn’t just motivation. It’s understanding.

And understanding changes how you live: how you rest, how you connect, how you respond instead of react.

If you’ve ever wondered why you keep repeating certain emotional loops — this day gives you language, perspective and real strategies to interrupt them.

You won’t leave “fixed”. You’ll leave equipped.

Join us for an afternoon that stays with you long after it ends.

What does it mean to be “adrift” in a world defined by work?
We’re taking a closer look at the research of Dr. James Gordon, whose work includes the exploration of the lived experiences of young men outside of employment. By looking through an existential lens, Dr. Gordon moves beyond simple statistics to understand the core search for meaning, identity, and agency during times of transition.
By understanding the unique weight of “worklessness,” Dr. Gordon provides a space where young men can rebuild their sense of self-worth from the inside out.

“I’ll do it when things calm down.” 🕊️
How many times have we promised ourselves that “future us” will have the time to rest, to heal, or to breathe? The truth is, life rarely provides a perfectly quiet clearing.
Healing doesn’t happen when the storm passes; it happens when we learn to navigate the rain. Therapy isn’t another “to-do” for your list—it’s the space where you put the list down.
Are you waiting for a ‘perfect time’ that hasn’t arrived yet? Maybe this is your sign to start exactly where you are. 🤍

In psychotherapy, healing happens before language — in the unspoken, felt experience between therapist and client. 🧠✨
Allan Schore’s research shows that right-brain-to-right-brain emotional communication — the moment we attune to another person’s internal world — is central to change. It’s here that implicit (unconscious) relational patterns reorganise, making new ways of being possible.

Studies on therapeutic change highlight that emotional attunement and nonverbal communication between therapist and client are stronger predictors of positive outcomes than insight alone. This mirrors Schore’s findings on the role of right-hemisphere processes in attachment and regulation.

Therapy is so much more than “just talking” 💛

For many people, letting go of symptoms can feel like letting go of who they are.
When something has shaped how you cope, relate, and survive, it naturally becomes part of your identity.
That’s why healing isn’t about ‘getting rid’ of anything — it’s about building a new relationship with yourself, with more choice, safety, and flexibility.
And that kind of change doesn’t happen overnight. It happens through small, steady shifts, over time.

Our Story

The London Practice was set up by Moa and Lee in Covent Garden, Central London. Our aim was to create an environment we would enjoy working from, with comfortable rooms that felt like home, and friendly, professional colleagues – an environment where therapists and clients alike would feel welcomed and at ease. We feel we have successfully created an atmosphere where the positive relationship between colleagues and environment seeps into the relationship between client and therapist.

We believe the quality of the relationship between client and therapist is fundamental to the work that takes place in the sessions. We have worked hard to extend this culture and atmosphere to our second location in The City. With every new client we welcome to The London Practice, we feel proud to open our doors to you. No matter what the issue at hand may be, we feel confident we have created the best basis for the challenging but rewarding journey that undertaking psychotherapy is.
