I’m Bankole and I am a London based integrative psychodynamic therapist and counsellor. I provide psychotherapy and counselling services to couples and individuals in Camden Town, Angel, Kensington and London Bridge. I also offer online virtual therapy sessions.
Being a first-generation Londoner, born and raised, I understand the pressures of living in a big fast paced city, and how lonely and isolating it can feel. We all face difficulties at some point in our lives, be it in work, in relationships, or after suffering a loss. I can support you through whatever challenges you face, helping you gain the tools to live in a calmer and more satisfying way.
“I believe it is important to be acknowledged and understood, so, at your pace, I can help you be more self-aware, to understand the feelings that play a big part in who you are and how you behave”
I am a warm, down to earth, professional, supportive, curious and gently challenging! I won’t just sit there and listen without engaging with you.
I create a safe, consistent, confidential space where you can express your thoughts and feelings and speak about your current and past challenges. Helping you gain greater self-awareness. This can help make changes in your life, act differently in relationships and better understand patterns of behaviour.
I specialise in addictions and anxiety and have extensive experience with depression and abuse. I will support you, challenge you gently, reflect back to you what you have said and allow you to find your way in the sessions. I believe that our early childhood relationships hold keys to how we navigate the world.
Offering short or long-term therapy depending on your needs and wishes. I am a fully insured and supervised member of the BACP (British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy) and as such work within their Ethical Framework.
My background is quite broad, predominately in a sales and target driven environment, but more recently in the charity sector offering me a wide range of personalities and cultures to learn from.
In addition to my post-graduate qualifications, I have also completed training courses in: Cognitive-Behavioural Counselling (CBT), Neuroscience of attachment, Psychiatry, psychopathology, and psychodynamics and Time-limited counselling.
