It’s been really helpful, speaking to Liana and being able to voice things that I would normally keep to myself. I chose to have telephone consultations and I find I like the anonymity.

I only had one session with Liana due to a change in schedule but from that one session alone I could tell she was a good listener and was clear in her subsequent therapy plan. Would recommend.

Hello, I’m Liana, a fully qualified and BACP registered counsellor based in London, currently providing online or telephone counselling.
I offer a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore difficult thoughts, feelings and experiences at your own pace. I strive to build an atmosphere of trust and security, where you feel truly heard and accepted.
Whatever struggles bring you to counselling, I aim to support you to gain a deeper understanding of yourself, your experiences, and your relationships with others. Together we can work towards getting you to a place where you feel better equipped to cope with life’s challenges and establish an inner sense of peace.
Whether you are experiencing a major life change or just don’t feel ‘yourself’ counselling can open up possibilities for deep personal change.
No issue is too big or too small if it matters to you.
My therapeutic approach is Integrative, which means I draw on different therapeutic approaches to best suit your individual needs. I conduct sessions with the utmost sensitivity and respect for individuals from diverse backgrounds.
Experience:
I have worked in several counselling services including; IAPT services, The Awareness Centre, Place2Be and West London Centre for Counselling.
I can be flexible around my times so please do drop me an email and we can discuss.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions. Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
