Agneta Lindberg

Sometimes life can feel difficult even when it is hard to explain exactly why. You may be struggling with anxiety, low mood, relationships, stress or simply feel that something in your life is not working.

I am an accredited psychodynamic counsellor with over 20 years' experience. I offer a warm, confidential space where we can explore what is troubling you and develop a deeper understanding of yourself and the patterns affecting your life. We will discuss possible ways for change in order for you to begin to feel different.

Over more than 20 years, I have worked in private practice, NHS primary care, mental health services and higher education. My previous roles include Clinical Lead for Talking Therapy within South Westminster Primary Care Home, as a Student Counsellor and developing a private therapy practice.

Alongside my therapeutic work, I have over 25 years' experience as a Pilates Method teacher. This has given me a particular awareness of the connection between emotional wellbeing and the body, and of how physical symptoms and sensations can sometimes communicate experiences that are difficult to put into words. In the therapy we can make use of the communication from the body to bring clarity to the mind, and vice versa.

I am a BACP-accredited psychodynamic counsellor and hold a BA (Hons) and MSc.

I work with anxiety and stress, including health anxiety; low mood; relationship difficulties; bereavement and loss; work-related pressures; life changes; self-esteem and confidence; and feelings of being stuck or dissatisfied with life.

My approach is psychodynamic, meaning that we explore not only what is happening in your life now, but also the experiences and relationships that may have shaped the way you see yourself and relate to others.

Sometimes we repeat patterns without fully understanding why. Through therapy, we can begin to recognise these patterns and gain greater freedom to respond differently.

My experience as both a therapist and Pilates Method teacher has given me a particular interest in the connection between mind and body. Sometimes the body communicates experiences and emotions that we have not yet been able to put into words.

I work collaboratively and do not give advice or tell you what to do. Instead, we explore your concerns together, helping you develop your own understanding and find a way forward.
