Hello
My name is Rachel Lohan and I am a fully-qualified and experienced UKCP-registered adult psychotherapist and clinical supervisor. I am also a parent-infant psychotherapist, supervisor and trainer. I offer compassionate, relational therapy and supervision within a space that is confidential and non-judgemental.
Welcome to my website. I hope you find the information you need here.
You may be seeking counselling or psychotherapy for any number of reasons. Perhaps life has got on top of you and you would like to find new ways of responding. Maybe you feel low, anxious, overwhelmed or stressed and you want to work out a way through. Possibly something particular has happened to you that you need to talk about. Or perhaps you don't really know what is wrong, but you are aware instinctively that you would like some support.
I provide a safe place where you and I can explore your feelings and relational patterns so that you can try to get back on track. I am trained in the humanistic school of counselling. I will not attempt to interpret what you say or offer you advice or guidance, but rather I will try to understand fully the issues you bring and the effect these are having on you, so that you might find more clarity about yourself.
I have long experience offering one-to-one psychotherapy to adults: alongside my private practice and roles in voluntary sector organisations, I worked for many years in an adult NHS therapy service. I was also previously a youth counsellor for students aged 11-18 in secondary schools. Most recently I was a specialist therapist in an NHS Perinatal Mental Health Team, supporting parents and carers with moderate to severe mental health issues to form loving relationships with their babies.
I am a qualified clinical supervisor and welcome enquiries from prospective supervisees.
I support people who bring issues such as trauma (including developmental trauma from adverse childhood experiences), very low mood, severe anxiety, bereavement and loss, ongoing and persistent relationship problems, and self harm/suicidal ideation, as well as people who are generally doing ok but want to live a fuller, more meaningful life.
My psychotherapy practice is based in rooms at 3 Montpelier Avenue Ealing W5 2XP and is within easy reach of many areas of central and west London. It has very good public transport links for Acton, Brentford, Chiswick, Greenford, Hammersmith, Hanwell, Hillingdon, Hounslow, Isleworth, Northolt, Richmond, Shepherd's Bush and Southall. There is also free parking right outside.

If you leave a message, I will be sensitive to confidentiality issues when I get back to you.
