Dr N. Dedani Dlodlo

About Me

I am an HCPC registered Counselling Psychologist and Clinical Supervisor, with 10 years of experience in mental health settings such as the NHS, schools and local councils. 

As a dedicated psychologist, I provide a safe and empathetic space for individuals and couples to explore their emotional challenges and find healing. With specialized expertise in trauma, anxiety, depression, employment issues, and relationship dynamics, I am committed to helping clients navigate life's complexities with resilience and insight.

My Specialty Areas

1. Trauma Focused Therapy: Guiding individuals through the process of healing from past traumas, fostering resilience and empowerment.
2. Anxiety, Depression & Mood Difficulties: Offering evidence-based techniques to manage symptoms, regain control, and rediscover joy in daily life.
3. Employment Issues: Assisting clients in coping with workplace stress, career transitions, burnout, and other professional challenges.
4. Couples Therapy: Facilitating open communication, conflict resolution, and deeper connection to strengthen relationships and foster mutual understanding.

My Approach

I work in a curious and collaborative way, tailoring therapy sessions to each client's unique needs. The therapeutic models that I tend to draw on include Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT), Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT) and DBT-informed practice. Whatever style of therapy we choose to use in the sessions, I always pay attention to how we can work together to create meaningful change. Together, we'll collaboratively explore thoughts, emotions, and behaviors to promote growth, self-awareness, and lasting change.

What next?

Take the first step towards healing and personal growth by reaching out for a confidential consultation. Your journey to emotional well-being starts here.

I'd very happy to offer you a free 15 minute initial consultation over the phone. During this call, we can think together about your particular needs or hopes for therapy at the moment and agree on appropriate next steps together.

Please email me on dedani@humanikind-psychotherapy.org so we can arrange a convenient time to speak. 

I look forward to hearing from you and commend you for taking these first steps. 

Individual psychological sessions

I am able to offer a free 15 minute consultation. Once we agree to work with one another, standard sessions are 50 minutes long. 

Session fees are on a sliding scale. I am very happy to discuss costs and come to an agreement together. I am also able to offer concessions to students, refugees or low-income clients. 

Please get in touch so we can discuss session fees.
