Jennifer Heymann Psychodynamic Counsellor and Psychotherapist London E8Jennifer Heymann:

Psychodynamic Counsellor & Psychotherapist (MBACP)

My name is Jennifer Heymann and I work as a psychodynamic counsellor and psychotherapist offering a therapeutic space where we can work collaboratively to better understand what might be troubling you and start to find a way forward.

I am currently seeing clients face to face and online (Zoom, Skype, etc) from my practice at HQ Therapy Rooms at both Haggerston and Dalston locations in Hackney, London E8.

There could be a particular issue you would like help with or an event in your life that you wish to think more about.

Sometimes it is hard to understand why we feel as we do, we just know that something is not right. At these times it can seem challenging to know where to seek help.

In my practice, I provide a non-judgemental, supportive environment in which you can start to talk about your life.

Working together we can build a therapeutic relationship based on trust and respect.

In this way, new perspectives can open up and a better understanding of confusing feelings and patterns of behaviour can emerge.

I begin with arranging an initial meeting, during which we can start a conversation, and think about what has brought you to therapy and how we might work together.

Training and Qualifications:

I am fully insured and my work is supervised, and I continue to attend workshops and seminars as part of my professional development.

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.
