Elo Mets Trainee Gestalt Psychotherapist london E8Elo Mets:

Trainee Gestalt Psychotherapist (UKCP, UKAGP)


My name is Elo Mets, I am a trainee psychotherapist working in the low-cost therapy and counselling service at HQ Therapy Rooms in Haggerston, London E8.

I’m currently studying at Metanoia Institute, London, MSc programme in Gestalt Psychotherapy, in my 4th year of studies.

What I love about Gestalt is that as much as it is a modality of Psychotherapy, it is also a way of life, a way of being, living in the here and now, trusting the process, living a life that is creative, authentic, vital, purposeful and courageous.

I offer an empathetic, attentive, supportive, safe and non-judgmental space. You can explore your thoughts, feelings, senses, and issues you are currently facing in your life. I might also encourage you to not only talk about but to feel and sense, to leave rationale on the side, and to explore and discover new sides, and aspects through creative activity, through bodily movement together with me.

This can bring greater awareness of yourself and your situation, of your way of thinking and perceiving, relating to others, and lead to shifts and personal growth, to a better understanding of your real wants and needs.

My keywords as a therapist are – self-awareness, self-development, self-esteem, peace of mind and balance.

I work on areas such as – fears, anxieties, depressive moods, anger, abuse, trauma, relationship issues, domestic violence, family conflicts, stress, burnout and low self-esteem.

I am currently available to work mostly online (zoom, Skype, etc), but one day per month (Thursday, Friday, Saturday or Sunday) I would be happy to meet with clients in London face to face.

 

My background:
I live in Estonia but I study in London, so come here on average for one long weekend per month.

Previously I completed a BA and an MBA in Economics. I have more than 10 years of experience working with people in bigger and smaller organisations and groups.

My personal life has provided me with many challenges and lessons which have helped me to grow as a person and have taught me to accept people the way they are at that certain moment.

I’m a member of the UKAGP (UK Association for Gestalt Practitioners).

Frequently Asked Questions

Why Should I Seek Therapy?

Many people, new to this type of help, believe that they need to be suffering from “mental illness” or serious “psychological problems”, or be in crisis in order for therapy and counselling to be appropriate for them. This is a common misconception; anyone can benefit from therapy when it comes to helping you deal with your personal feelings and problems, make positive changes in your life, and understand yourself better.

So what is therapy and counselling? If you’re new to this world then the first steps can sometimes be the most difficult. Therapy can be a very effective treatment for a whole range of personal problems covering areas from physical and emotional problems, different types of behavioural disorders, through to human sexuality issues and a host of wellbeing and complementary therapy techniques.

Any problem you have that is causing you concern, anxiety or distress is a valid and appropriate reason to reach out and find a therapist and talk to them about it. Far from something to be ashamed of, acknowledging your vulnerability and asking for help is a sign of maturity and strength.

If you feel that you have a desire and are committed to making changes in your life in order to overcome your current problems and achieve more long-term satisfaction, psychological wellbeing and personal fulfilment, then you are ready to seek therapy. We are here to help you work through a wide range of therapy issues that might be troubling you.

Will Information About Me Be Safe & Secure?

It is quite normal to be hesitant when it comes to sharing private and intimate information about yourself with a stranger. You may fear that you will receive judgment from your therapist, or that your therapist will share your details with others.

HQ Therapy Rooms takes your privacy and confidentiality very seriously. Our therapists are required to keep everything said in therapy sessions between you, just like your doctor is required to keep your records private.

For therapy to be effective, there must be unconditional trust built between you and your therapist, and this relies on a shared understanding of confidentiality. It applies to the outside world as well: it is standard practice for therapists not to acknowledge their clients if they run into them outside of the therapy rooms in order to help protect their client’s confidentiality. Read our full privacy policy for more information.

Can I Contact You For Advice About Getting Therapy?

Talking about your thoughts and feelings with a supportive therapist can often make you feel better and help you face your problems. It feels good to be listened to and to know that someone cares about you and wants to help. It is important that you find a therapist with whom you feel comfortable and can build a trusting relationship to help you make positive changes in your life.

But how do you know what type of therapy is right for you? Taking the first steps in finding the right therapist can be the biggest hurdle for newcomers, so we have made it easy. Simply get in touch with us using the low-cost help and advice form and one of our fully qualified therapists can work with you to make sure you get the right advice you need in order to receive the correct low-cost therapy and counselling services you require.

Our practitioners deal with a wide range of therapy issues using different types of therapy modalities tailored to the types of clients we work with. We also cater for people who are beset with financial difficulties, offering them services ranging from low-cost therapy and reduced-rate therapy to working with seasoned, qualified and accredited talking therapists.
