Mike McDonough Therapy

I am a UKCP registered psychoanalytic psychotherapist experienced in supporting people dealing with anxiety and depression, relationship problems, low self-esteem, shame, bereavement, trauma, the effects of childhood sexual abuse and sexual diversity issues, among others. I work with individuals and couples.

Whatever difficulties you are experiencing in your life right now, I am willing to explore them with you in a safe and confidential setting. I have a very good track record of helping clients to manage their depression, anxiety or other difficult feelings, accept themselves better and enhance their emotional well-being.

I work in private practice in Tottenham, Haringey.  I also work part-time at the NHS’s Maudsley Hospital seeing patients who self-harm or experience an eating disorder. I have worked as a therapist for a bereavement service in Camden, for a mental health charity in Hackney, for a charity that supports adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse and for a project that offers psychotherapy to people experiencing psychosis.

I am registered with the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP), one of the main regulatory bodies for therapists in the UK, and follow their ethical framework. I am also a member of Pink Therapy, which is dedicated to working with clients in a way that respects gender and sexual diversity.

I am registered as a counsellor with health insurance providers Aetna Global Benefits, Aviva, Axa, Bupa and Vitality Health.

I work in English or French and see clients once, twice or three times a week.
