My Approach

I believe you already have all the answers to your life, although they may not be readily accessible.

As your therapist, I'd like to support you to get to know yourself as much, and as closely, as possible. Together, we will explore what affects you, and how you're impacted by others in your life.

I work with the twin approaches of mindfulness and compassion. What this means is that I support you in developing curiosity and compassion towards your self.

As your mirror, I reflect your thoughts and feelings back to you, inviting you to sink more deeply into them. In time, your increasing self-awareness can help you to recognise patterns of behaviours that no longer serve you, and adopt those that do.

​Along with awareness, I support you in cultivating a greater level of self-compassion. This is so you can develop an attitude of radical kindness towards yourself. Overtime, you may find an increasing capacity to take the best care of yourself, no matter which situation you find yourself in.

At the end of our work together, you may find yourself more resilient, and trusting of your own voice. ​

About Me

My name is Jinny Gupta and my practice in West London offers therapy to adults in-person and online. I work in Hindi and English.

I completed my integrative training at Regent's University, London and hold an Advanced Diploma (dist.) in Integrative Psychotherapy (ADIP). My work is informed by the following approaches: Gestalt, Existential, Jungian, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Using mindfulness and compassion, I invite clients to to explore their feelings, thoughts and behaviours, and where helpful, draw connections between their past and their present. I help clients develop self-regulation skills using techniques that honour the mind and the body, when and where possible.

Clients who have worked successfully with me arrive with a host of issues related to anxiety, depression, trauma (PTSD), bereavement, or have faced issues concerning identity, cultural adaptation, meaning and life transitions. As a South Asian woman born and raised in India and now living in the UK, I understand the challenges (and gifts) of navigating different cultures, and the longing for 'home'. My practice empowers other women to find their voice and move towards their truth with confidence and compassion.   

In addition to private practice, I work at an Eating Disorder service in Central London (Orri) and also provide therapeutic support to NHS frontline workers. Additionally, I facilitate supervision for individual and groups of trainee psychotherapists at Headstrong Counselling in London. In order to further my interest in the spiritual dimension of life, I am trained as a Mindfulness & Meditation teacher, and work with individuals and groups wishing to begin or deepen their existing meditation practice in a trauma informed/sensitive way. 

In the past, I have worked in various mental-health settings such as West London NHS Trust (WLNT), MIND-Hammersmith and Fulham, Ealing Abbey Counselling Service (EACS) and West London Centre for Counselling (WLCC). Prior to psychotherapy, I worked as an Economist and Healthcare advisor for more than a decade within governments and private sectors in India, Malawi and Iceland.
