I can definitely recommend Ina Thomson as a therapist! In my experience, she is really compassionate and can guide you through difficult feelings. She gave me great recommendations on how to deal with stress, fear, setting healthy boundaries and also getting to the rout cause of my fears and inner beliefs. I really feel like I'm in professional hands and making progress on self-healing!

Miss Thomson is a wonderful therapist. She managed to make me feel relieved even at the times when I was feeling that my overwhelming thoughts will storm me away from this planet. I feel like she is a great professional who knows how to balance between the mood swings of her clients. She is also very attentive as she did not only give me homework’s and techniques that will help me with my anxiety, but also remembered where we left at the previous sessions. She is an amazing therapist, and I bet she is even a greater person in her personal life.

More about Ina

  • Female
  • BACP

I am licensed in the UK with 4 1/2 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, family conflicts, relationship issues, coping with grief and loss, & motivation, self esteem, and confidence. I listen deeply to my clients and believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and therapy plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to get to know yourself better, face the uncomfortable , come into more acceptance of yourself and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey. I am working within a humanistic framework, which means I believe in everyone's creative potential, and innate ability to change. I use a variety of approaches, including challenging negative thoughts (CBT) and behaviour patterns. I have experience working with highly sensitive people. I offer a listening space if needed, or a more structured approach , where we set goals and work with practical tools to address symptoms of stress. I can offer sessions in the languages of English and German.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
