Filippo Dionisi

I am a trainee counsellor completing a Postgraduate Diploma in Counselling and Psychotherapy at the University of East London. I was born in Italy and have made my life in the UK, and I am interested in the many ways people learn to adapt, shape and protect themselves. As a gay man, I bring a personal sensitivity to questions of identity, belonging and visibility.

I can support people with anxiety, low mood, self-esteem challenges, relationship difficulties, loneliness, grief, shame, sexuality, identity and life transitions.

Sessions with me offer a welcoming place to pause and notice what is often pushed aside. You might arrive with a clear issue in mind, or with a sense that life feels heavy, repetitive or hard to explain. We would work together by giving careful attention to what feels important, unclear or difficult to carry alone.

If this speaks to what you are looking for, we can begin with an initial conversation and see whether working together feels useful.
