Yulia Raskina
Psychodynamic Counsellor & Psychotherapist
Helping you find your own way from overwhelm to clarity
Psychodynamic Psychotherapy to understand and tame your anxiety, deepen self-awareness, and feel more empowered to create lasting change.
Welcome, I’m Yulia, a BACP-registered psychodynamic psychotherapist, working in London and online. I support young adults and adults through complex emotional and relational challenges, as well as periods of change and transition.
Change takes time, and it rarely happens in isolation, it happens in relationship. In a world that moves quickly and looks for immediate answers and quick fixes, I believe in the importance of slowing down and understanding things more deeply. That is why, rather than focusing only on reducing symptoms, we will take time to understand what is beneath them, how your relationships and inner world have shaped the way you feel, behave, and relate to others today.
My work is grounded in a depth-based approach, looking not only at what is happening now, but at how past experiences and relationships continue to shape the present. Therapy with me can help you develop greater self-awareness, improve your relationships, and find more authentic ways of living, while feeling more able to navigate difficult emotions.
You don’t need to have everything figured out before getting in touch. We can start with a conversation and see whether working together feels like the right fit.
I am here to support you.
These are some of the difficulties I work with:
· Relationship difficulties
· General anxiety, panic attacks and dissociation
· Low mood and depression
· OCD
· Trauma
· Shame and stigma
· Suicidal thoughts and self-harm
· Disordered eating and body image
· Loss and grief
· Perfectionism and procrastination
· Identity, self-esteem, and questions of belonging
· Stress and burnout
· Immigration and cultural transition
· Life transitions, loss, and endings
· Boarding school experience
· Loneliness and fear of intimacy
Starting Therapy With Me
-
We can begin with a free 25-minute introductory call, offering a space to talk about what brings you to therapy.
During this conversation, you’ll have the opportunity to ask any questions and get a sense of how I work, and whether this feels like the right space for you.
-
You’re welcome to book a 60-minute initial consultation, offering a space for us to explore what working together might look like.
There is no expectation to commit to further sessions. Finding the right help can feel confusing, especially if you’re not yet sure what you need. A one-off assessment session can offer space to reflect and consider what kind of support might feel right for you.
-
If we choose to work together, we’ll meet for regular 50-minute sessions, in person or online.
I offer both short-term and longer-term therapy. Short-term work can support you through a specific difficulty, while longer-term psychotherapy allows space to explore deeper patterns and questions over time.
Location and Fees
-
I offer online psychotherapy, working with people across different countries and cultures.
Online sessions mean we can meet wherever you are in the world, offering access to therapy in a way that fits your lifestyle.
