Roberto Kilciauskas:

Trainee Humanistic Integrative Counsellor (BACP student member)

Hi, my name is Roberto.

As a dedicated student member of the BACP, I am currently working towards a Level 6 Advanced Diploma in Humanistic Integrative Counselling at CPPD, one of the UK’s leading humanistic integrative counselling training schools.

My journey as a mental health practitioner has also included foundations in Freud and Jung’s ideas at the British Psychoanalytic Foundation, followed by further training in Psychotherapy, Counselling & Coaching at Emmy van Deurzen’s New School of Psychotherapy and Counselling.

More recently, I co-founded and currently lead, as a volunteer, a Peer Support Group at the Nightingale Hospital — Central London’s leading private mental health institution, specialising in general mental health, eating disorders, addictions, and OCD.

With a background that includes a BA in Communication and an MBA in Marketing, I bring over 20 years of experience in the communication industry to my counselling practice. My diverse professional journey has equipped me with unique insights into the complexities of both personal and professional life.

Therapy, however, is more than just a theoretical enterprise for me. Having been in therapy for almost half of my life, with professionals from a wide range of modalities, I have experienced first-hand the profound value of this work. It has allowed me to know myself far more deeply than I ever could have done alone, and I see therapy as an essential tool for living more fully.

My integrative approach means I adapt to your individual needs rather than relying on one single method. I draw from Person-Centred, Gestalt, Transactional Analysis, CBT, and Psychodynamic approaches, bringing together the most useful aspects of each to support your healing journey.

With lived experience and a compassionate understanding of each person’s uniqueness, I aim to help you declutter your mind and spirit, allowing the healthy parts of you to grow and flourish. I provide a safe, empathetic space where you can explore difficult thoughts and feelings.

Living in a different culture has enriched my understanding of diverse perspectives, and I am committed to fostering an inclusive and culturally sensitive environment for all clients. I work with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma (including childhood trauma), stress, grief and loss, low self-esteem, confidence issues, relationship difficulties, family challenges, identity concerns, life transitions, work-related stress, burnout, and creativity blocks.

Whether you are grappling with challenges from the past, present, or future, or searching for your authentic self, I am here to support you.

I offer sessions in English and Portuguese, and I am passionate about helping you find meaning and purpose in your life. Let’s work together to navigate your challenges and move towards a more fulfilling existence.
