After just three weeks of therapy with Hendrina I have seen incredible results! She not only knows exactly how to help me— she also knows how to find the core issues that have led to my current situation —nd fixing the roots has led to so much positive change in such a short amount of time! She is kind, and gentle, and creates a safe space where I feel comforted and supported and motivated to find and pursue all the changes I need to make to become a better version of myself. I would 100% recommend!

Hello and Welcome!
I’m Hendrina Sterling, a dedicated Psychodynamic Counsellor, psychotherapist, and clinical hypnotherapist with over a decade of experience working within the National Health Service (NHS) in the UK, and more than six years as a self-development coach. I hold a BSc (Honours) in Psychology with Counselling, and advanced postgraduate qualifications in Psychological Therapy Practices, Therapeutic Counselling, and Hypnotherapy.
My approach to Psychodynamic Therapy focuses on helping clients build their internal resources to manage challenges independently. For instance, a client dealing with depression may explore how their current reactions are influenced by past experiences, enabling them to address issues with greater insight and resilience.
Please note that I do not offer Hypnotherapy or Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) through BetterHelp. Hypnotherapy involves inducing a state of focused awareness to address various conditions like anxiety, pain, and other issues. (MBCT) can be particularly effective for preventing relapse in individuals with major depressive disorder who have experienced multiple episodes of depression.
My areas of expertise cover a broad spectrum of issues, including stress, anxiety, trauma, abuse, motivation, problem-solving skills, fears and phobias, self-esteem, self-confidence, depression, grief, major life changes, and eating disorders. I also have significant experience supporting individuals with ADHD.
My therapeutic approach integrates traditional counselling and psychotherapy with innovative techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) and hypnosis. Each session is customized to address your unique needs, ensuring a tailored and effective therapeutic experience.
Beyond my clinical practice, I am an accomplished author of therapeutic personal development workbooks and the founder of MindEmpowerTherapy.com, a platform dedicated to enhancing mental health and well-being.
My goal is to empower you to overcome challenges, build resilience, and lead a fulfilling, balanced life.

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.

Hendrina has been very helpful to me. I feel better right now, more alive and with confidence. I'm achieving my goals and want to work on myself to be a better person every day. Hendrina understands me and her therapy is the best!
She is very gentle and supportive
Hendrina has been the best therapist I have ever had in my life. After having gone through countless experiences that hindered my development as a person, it has helped me to recognize how these experiences affected me and how little by little through that recognition, I can begin to accept the experience and act according to my ideals and needs. Despite the fact that we have been in therapy for a short time and that it has been a process of ups and downs, I feel that I have advanced and that my perspectives are beginning to question themselves, to be able to exercise the changes that I need so much. I thank Hendrina very much for helping me understand that despite the pain of the world, we always have the opportunity and perhaps, the ability to move forward and feel better about ourselves. It is the first time that I feel that a therapist takes me into account and is passionate about his profession. I RECOMMEND HER 100% and with my eyes closed.
She is the best.
Very helpful and knowledgeable about many things. In a short time of working with her I am already thrilled with my progress and the results. I look forward to continuing my journey with her.
