About me…
Welcome to TCD Therapy Services
My name is Sandy K Baiju and I am a London based counsellor, career therapist and yoga therapist.
I am an experienced counsellor and psychotherapist and provide private counselling and psychotherapy to aid emotional and mental health well-being. I help in most areas that affect people’s lives, particularly around stress, loss, low self-esteem, trauma, relationships, depression and anxiety, but if there are other issues that affect you, I am here to listen, support and guide. We can do this on a short term basis that is solution focused , or for the long term where more time is needed. All sessions are confidential where you can feel safe to share your thoughts and feelings without judgement. My method of working is integrative, which draws from the Psychodynamic and Person-Centred models of therapy with elements of CBT. I have a background within the NHS and IAPT Services where I trained with NHS Wandsworth and Camden and Islington NHS Trusts and have worked with many people from various backgrounds and cultures with different levels of needs.
I enjoy working with a wide range of people to aid their various mental health needs and manly work with adults as an individual or in couples. I welcome people from different backgrounds, ethnicities, ages, sexual orientation and identities, faiths and who are neurodiverse.
Specifically for work related stress, I offer career therapy, which combines counselling and career mentoring together using work coaching tools to improve mental health resilience and confidence in the workplace to aid a better work/life balance. These sessions also allow focus on particular projects creative blocks or issue. I can help guide and raise awareness on attitudes towards work and career and how they impact the self and working relationships. I use techniques to further develop working practices as well as provide support for work-related stress, depression and anxiety stemming from the workplace. I have previously worked in the corporate and financial services industry for over 25 years as well as 7 years in the creative industries, and use my work experience as manager and educator, combined with counselling, to help manage and reduce stress and adapt work behaviours to aid compassion for the self in the work place.
I am also a 500 hours Yoga Alliance trained yoga teacher and use yogic practices to aid physical well-being and raise bodily awareness to further improve mental health holistically. I am yoga practitioner and teacher for over 10 years and have worked with children and young adults with special needs.
I am a registered member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP) and adhere to their best practices and guidelines.
All client information and sessions are confidential in line with best practice of the BACP and in adherence to applicable UK laws.
