Emilia Gonczar

Hi I am Emilia, BACP accredited therapist with over 10years of experience.

I offer support with anxiety, developmental and current trauma, low self-esteem, low mood and anger amongst other issues including those relating to difficulty maintaining satisfactory interpersonal relationships. I have experience working with people who feel their past prevents them from functioning optimally in the present and have medically inexplicable ailments ,intrusive thoughts and compulsive behaviours. I combine psychoanalytical thinking and EDMR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) with a focus on exploring attachment styles, finding value in working with my clients over longer periods of time. 

I graduated with a Master's in Psychology from the University of Warsaw and then completed a 4year psychoanalytical therapy training at the Institute of Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy, after trained in EMDR (level 1&2). I constantly attend CPD's and supervisions.

I gained experience working in many psychiatric wards (Clinic of Neurosis, Personality, and Eating Disorders; Acute Psychiatric Ward; Children and Adolescent Ward; ), for charities ( Rethink Mental Illness -The National Schizophrenia Fellowship; TPD Children's Friends Society; Psychoanalytical Outpatient Clinic; Korczak's Polyclinic).

RECOGNISED WITH : Aviva, Allianz, Axa, Vitality, WPO, Cigna, WPA.
