Mindfulness-based psychotherapy in Lambeth and Waterloo, south London
Welcome
Thank you for visiting my website. There are times, for every one of us, when life feels overwhelming and confusing. As scary as these moments of crisis are, they can also be opportunities for profound change. Psychotherapy offers the confidential support needed to navigate a path towards healing and wholeness. As I like to say, people come to therapy not because there's something wrong, but because there's something right!
I have an MA in Core Process Psychotherapy, a mindfulness-based approach that draws on Western psychology, modern neuroscience and Buddhist awareness practice. I am fully accredited with the UKCP and can provide both short-term and open-ended psychotherapy. My work is informed by 35 years of Zen practice and a deep respect for the innate wisdom of the body-mind-energy system. To find out more about my approach and whether it's right for you, I offer a 30-minute consultation to begin with. To arrange an initial meeting, please email me at dorindatalbot@gmail.com.
Location
At the moment I can offer limited psychotherapy sessions online. From ApriI 2025 there will be spaces available at my practices in Brixton SW2; at Herne Hill Space, London SE24 (two-minutes from Herne Hill overground station and a short bus ride from Brixton tube); and at the Breathe London Wellbeing Centre in Waterloo near London's South Bank (within easy walking distance of Waterloo, Southwark and London Bridge stations). I also plan to be working outdoors again in beautiful Brockwell Park after Easter.
Fees
I offer a brief initial consultation, which is free of charge. This is an opportunity to ask any questions you might have, discuss what you'd like to gain from psychotherapy and for both of us to decide whether we would like to work together. After that fees start at £80 per 50-minute psychotherapy session. I hold some reduced-fee places available for those on low income (there may be a waiting time for these sessions).
So, whether you're grappling with a life-changing event such as a bereavement, redundancy or relationship breakdown, need professional help with a specific issue or want to bring more creativity and meaning into your life, psychotherapy provides a safe, non-judgemental space to deeply be with whatever needs attention. It can help lead to greater ease, intimacy and possibility.
