Mr Philip Karahassan

Registered Counselor

“I am an experienced Psychotherapist, Counsellor and Psychologist working in London, Helping you to live a happier more insightful life”

About Me

I offer a calm space to explore what truly matters. We can navigate challenges together, helping you discover a path towards greater well-being. My aim is to foster insights, making sense of difficult experiences. This leads to a more fulfilling and happier life. I support you in building lasting change, guiding you to understand yourself better and live with clarity.

Approach

Together we set clear, manageable steps while keeping attention on what matters most, gradually shifting patterns toward steadier days. In my London practice and online, in English, sessions are paced to suit you—sometimes reflective and slow, sometimes focused and practical. I use talking, gentle analysis and short between-session tasks to help untangle addictive cycles, anxious thinking and low mood so choices feel clearer. I find this way of working suits adults, couples and families who want insight and steady change.
