Dr Sergio SpinelliPsychotherapist
I am a private Chartered Psychologist and Psychotherapist based in London Bridge, with over 25 years of experience working with adults, teenagers, families and couples. I am a Chartered Member of the British Psychological Society and practice in both English and Italian. My academic background includes a Master’s Degree in Clinical Psychology from the University of Turin, along with a four-year postgraduate diploma in Analytical Psychotherapy from the Lista Institute in Milan. I also completed advanced training in systemic and relational therapy at Lugano Hospital in Switzerland. Throughout my career, I have supported individuals facing a wide range of challenges, including depression, anxiety, addiction, eating disorders, chronic pain, and relationship difficulties. Each experience has deepened my understanding of the human condition and strengthened my commitment to providing compassionate, personalised care.

Dr Hasina SarwariClinical Psychologist
I am a HCPC-registered Clinical Psychologist with seventeen years of experience supporting teenagers, adults, seniors, and couples across London and beyond. My practice is built upon a foundation of extensive clinical training, including a DClinPsy, and a diverse range of evidence-based modalities. I have cultivated a broad breadth of expertise, assisting clients with challenges ranging from anxiety, burnout, and PTSD to chronic pain, body image concerns, and complex life transitions. By integrating specialist approaches such as EMDR, EFT, IFS, and somatic therapy alongside traditional frameworks like CBT, ACT, and DBT, I provide a sophisticated, bespoke therapeutic experience. Whether working with individuals, couples, or adolescents, my focus remains on fostering deep, enduring change. I offer a professional, empathetic space where we can navigate your specific circumstances with clinical rigour and human understanding, helping you move towards a more grounded and authentic way of living.

Ms Mariana AleksievaCounsellor
I arrived in London in 2000 to continue my studies, and my path since then has moved through finance, psychology, yoga, and counselling. Living between cultures has shaped how I understand identity, belonging, and what it means to feel at home within yourself. My training in psychology gave me a foundation in understanding emotional and relational life, while later training as a yoga teacher deepened my awareness of the connection between mind and body. It brought me into closer contact with how experience, including trauma, can be carried physically as well as emotionally. This continues to inform how I work, sometimes inviting awareness of the body alongside conversation as a way of understanding ourselves more fully. Being a mother is also central to who I am. Parenting continues to shape my understanding of love, boundaries, vulnerability, and the balance between caring for others and staying connected to yourself. These experiences have deepened the way I sit with people in their struggles, relationships, and life transitions. I work relationally and collaboratively, offering a warm and reflective space where you can speak openly and be met without judgement. Together, we can explore patterns, emotions, relationships, and different parts of your experience with curiosity and compassion, helping you develop a deeper understanding of yourself and a stronger sense of connection to who you are.

Dr Aldo GabardoClinical Psychologist
I am a Clinical Psychologist in London registered with the Health Care Professional Council (HCPC). I am a Chartered Psychologist with the Italian Psychological Society since 2003, and I qualified as a Psychotherapist in 2007. Although psychodynamic theories have always fascinated me, I focussed my studies on cognitive and behavioural therapy because of its evidence-based approach. My favourite author is Albert Ellis, the father of Rational Emotive Behavioural Therapy; he believes that we are anxious or depressed because of the way we think about our life. Aim of REBT is disputing irrational (and noxious) thoughts and replacing them with more rational (and healthier) thoughts. From 2007 to 2014, I have been working as private psychotherapist and school counsellor in Rome but I was not happy about my private and professional life, so I decided to move to the UK. Consistently with what I say to my clients (we can always work our way to happiness), I left everything behind and started a new and exciting experience in London. While waiting for my registration with the Health and Care Profession Council (HCPC) I worked as support worker or teaching assistant, but this never affected my firm determination to work as a psychologist in the UK. After two fantastic experiences as honorary psychologist with NHS (one with learning disabilities and the other with older people), I was finally (and proudly) registered with HCPC in 2019. I worked as a clinical psychologist with Central North West London (CNWL) NHS Trust from 2019 to 2021. Since 2021, I have worked with the North London Foundation Trust (NLFT). I was with the Enfield Learning Disabilities Service (EILDS) from 2021 to 2023, and I have been working with the Barnet Learning Disabilities Service (BLDS) since then. I started working with Mind a Porter in 2020.
