Tina Sims
Hello, my name is Tina Sims and I’m a fully qualified psychotherapist and clinical supervisor with 15 years’ experience in practice with adults and older young people covering a wide range of issues. I work from Homa Therapy Practice in Clerkenwell, Islington situated close to Farringdon, Kings Cross and Angel stations.
You may be trying to manage a crisis or a life changing event. You may want to explore issues from your past, or you may be experiencing emotions and behaviours that you want to understand.
We’ll work together to give space for thoughts and feelings to emerge, to gain support, and through this achieve self awareness and potential change.
