Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy & Counselling IN LONDON BRIDGE, Southwark & Forest Hill, DULWICH

I am a psychoanalytical psychotherapist based in South London. I am based near Dulwich and London Bridge. I offer both long term and short term psychotherapy. I work with both individuals and couples. I can see you in person in my consulting rooms in SE23 3DS (a tranquil tree covered garden office on a quiet road) or a stone's throw away from Borough Market in SE1 1XW. I welcome your contact by email or telephone. If you would prefer to arrange for a psychotherapy consultation via zoom or telephone, that is also possible.

I am a member of the Guild of Psychotherapists (guildofpsychotherapists.org.uk) and the Number 42 Psychotherapy Practice (number42.org.uk) . I am also an associate of the Mindfield, which provides psychological support for humanitarian workers (themindfield.world)

I am registered with the UKCP. I also have an interest in philosophy and sociology and have taught these subjects and draw on them in the consulting room. I have a BA from Oxford University in PPE, and a PhD from Essex University. I conducted over 100 oral history interviews in order to explore intergenerational family dynamics.

Welcome, and thank you for visiting my website.

My name is Ajay Khandelwal and I am a psychoanalytical psychotherapist and counsellor based in London Bridge and Dulwich in South London
