Olivier Cormier-Otaño MBACP (Accred.)

About me

I am a BACP accredited counsellor of Franco-Spanish origin. I have been in London for over 20 years and I remain very sensitive to differences in cultures. My training as a therapist is integrative, my work is relational and I mostly include humanistic and psychodynamic approaches to my practice. I have a vast experience of working with relationships, identities, low self esteem, sexualities, and addictions yet I take into consideration all aspects and experiences of the person.

I work in a non-judgmental, accepting, caring and challenging way respectful of the BACP guidelines. I offer in a safe environment, face-to-face counselling, short term or open-ended therapy. I am based in Islington, North London, close to Caledonian Road, Kings Cross, Camden, Finsbury Park and Euston.

I am particularly interested in working on relationship with one-self, with others, past and present. I offer individual and couple therapy.

I am also a qualified Psychosexual therapist: indeed you may want to explore how external factors (society, oppression, partners...) or internal factors (depression, repression, feelings...) get in the way of your sexual expression and enjoyment. Issues around sexuality may include:

• Gender identity
• Arousal and desire problems
• Couples therapy
• Trauma
• Unwanted behaviour and compulsivity
• Asexuality, sexual orientation
• And other issues related to sex
