Our Therapy Services
At Therapy With Zia, we offer a range of support through therapy that focuses on emotional well-being, personal development, and healthier relationships. Our work is grounded in psychodynamic psychotherapy, with sessions tailored to each individual or family rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.
We work collaboratively and at a pace that feels manageable, creating a therapeutic space where concerns can be explored safely and thoughtfully.
Child Therapy
Childhood is a time of rapid emotional and developmental change. When a child is struggling, it may show through behaviour, withdrawal, anxiety, or difficulty expressing feelings.
Our child therapy sessions in London provide a supportive environment where children can communicate in ways that feel natural to them.
How child therapy helps
Supports emotional expression through play and creativity
Helps children process difficult experiences or transitions
Builds emotional resilience and self-understanding
Supports behavioural and relational development
Sessions often use play and creative methods, allowing children to explore feelings without pressure. Parent review sessions are included to ensure progress is supported beyond the therapy room.
Therapy for Young People and Adolescents
Adolescence can bring unique pressures, including identity questions, academic stress, social challenges, and emotional regulation difficulties.
Our therapy services for young people in London offer a confidential space where adolescents can talk openly, reflect on experiences, and develop healthier ways of coping.
Common reasons young people seek therapy
Anxiety or low mood
Difficulties at school or college
Social or peer relationship challenges
Emotional overwhelm or withdrawal
Changes at home or within family relationships
Therapy sessions are structured to respect independence while offering consistent emotional support.
Family Therapy and Parental Support
Family relationships play a crucial role in emotional well-being. Our family therapy sessions in London focus on strengthening communication, understanding relational patterns, and supporting healthier connections.
How family therapy can support change
Improves communication between family members
Helps families understand emotional dynamics
Supports parents navigating challenging behaviours
Encourages healthier boundaries and relationships
Family work may involve joint sessions, parent consultations, or integrated reviews, depending on the needs of the child or young person.
Psychodynamic Psychotherapy Approach
All therapy sessions at Therapy With Zia are informed by psychodynamic psychotherapy. This approach focuses on understanding emotions, past experiences, and relational patterns that influence present-day thoughts and behaviours.
Benefits of psychodynamic therapy
