Robin Robinson

What are my qualifications?

I am a Relational Transactional Analyst with a CTA (EATA) and a Master of Science / MSc. in Transactional Analysis Psychotherapy (UKCP & PSA Accredited). 

I also have a postgraduate clinical diploma in TA psychotherapy, and a postgraduate diploma in TA psychotherapeutic counselling.

I am registered and accredited by the United Kingdom Council of Psychotherapists (UKCP & PSA Accredited) and I am committed to working within the UKCP’s ethical framework.

As a specialist in Relational Transactional Analysis I am also registered as a clinical member of the European Association for Transactional Analysis (EATA), and the International Association of Relational Transactional Analysis (IARTA), and I am bound to working within their ethical framework too.

Personally, I have first-hand experience of psychotherapy, counselling and coaching and over 20 years of personal use of mindfulness-based interventions; and I understand what it is like to sit in the chair as a client.

This means I am a big believer in reaching out and asking for professional help whenever support with life’s challenges is needed.

Today, I hold my own private practice in West London in Hammersmith (W6) and in South Kensington (SW7). Both locations are tranquil, safe spaces for you to unravel your difficulties in confidence with me. 

How can Psychotherapy and Psychotherapeutic Counselling help?

Some people find that psychotherapeutic counselling and longer-term psychotherapy can help to make sense of the past helping individuals or couples to evolve and transform from feeling stuck into feeling like their ‘true-selves’ again, perhaps after some of the most difficult situations in their lives.

How do I work with my clients?

I work with my clients using a variety of approaches integrated to suit the individual. My holistic and integrative approach has proven effective in helping my clients to accept themselves fully and transform their quality of life.

Psychotherapy and counselling has also helped my clients to improve how they communicate with others significantly improving their personal and professional relationships. 

However, I truly believe that ‘one size or approach does not fit all’ and so I apply different approaches to different clients using interventions and tools taken from across the psychology sector to empower each person to reach their full potential and move away from being stuck to feeling like their authentic selves again.

In terms of working with my clients for a specific period of time, some clients have been with me for many years and others attend for brief short-term work.

This is something we can discuss to suit you and work together at a pace that feels appropriate. 

What can I help you with in terms of my expertise? 

I can help with bereavement and loss, sadness, anxiety and panic attacks, depression, post traumatic stress and trauma, all traumatic syndromes, low self-esteem, hormonal issues, as well as fertility issues, sex and sexuality, and difficulties with relationships or workplace issues, and major career transitions.

I am non-discriminatory, race and LGBTQ+ affirmative, and I honour individuality whilst fostering a sense of empowerment in my work with everyone.

Whatever it is, together we can work on what it is you want to change, and formulate a way forwards towards genuine and lasting change.

If there’s something you’d like to ask me in confidence, or discuss with me today, email me or call me direct.

Prices range from £70.00 - £100.00 for online and face-to-face sessions, depending on whether you are an individual or couple, and depending on your employment status, and if it is short-term or long-term work. 

I offer concessions for NHS workers, as well as OAPs, and this is subject to a full clinical assessment which is conducted in the first session.

Additionally, I offer two bursary places a year for those who cannot afford the full cost of therapy and these places are also subject to availability and a full clinical assessment. Currently all bursary places are full. 

All sessions are 50 minutes.
Couples sessions can be extended to 75 minutes subject to availability.

All clients will undergo a clinical assessment prior to commencing the work which takes place in the first session.
