I am a qualified, accredited and registered integrative psychotherapist & counsellor and executive coach in private practice with over 15 years experience working with individuals, couples, and organisations.<\/p>\n
My expertise lies in addressing \u00a0interpersonal difficulties, cross-cultural issues, and stress-related problems, including anxiety and depression<\/span>.<\/p>\n The depth of my training also equips me to effectively work with various concerns such as trauma, abuse, dissociation, narcissism, self-harm, sexual problems and complex, enduring mental health issues.<\/p>\n My personal background is rooted in Freud\u2019s Vienna, and I have family connections in the UK, Austria, Italy and Germany.\u00a0<\/p>\n As a former business professional, I am dedicated to promoting health and wellbeing, bringing a pragmatic and holistic perspective to my therapeutic work by drawing on my extensive experience as a senior yoga teacher trainer and mindfulness teacher.<\/span><\/p>\n In addition to my private practice, I am involved in lecturing and examining at a London university, as well as consulting organisations on HR strategies with a specific focus on burnout prevention.\u00a0<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n My approach to therapy is based on recognising the significance of both context and content in our narrative and life experience. I adopt an intersectional perspective while acknowledging the embodied nature of our mind.<\/span><\/p>\n The integrative approach I employ allows me to combine traditional therapeutic theories with evidence-based models and<\/span> contemporary relational ideas grounded in findings from neurobiology. This enables me to tailor <\/span>treatment to my clients’ needs, rather than fitting them into a specific method. <\/span><\/p>\n I draw on various theoretical frameworks in my approach, including psychoanalytic and psychodynamic thought, attachment- and regulation theories, sensorimotor and b<\/span>ody-awareness approaches to trauma treatment, interpersonal neurobiology,<\/span> cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), integrating them with my life experience.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n While most of my therapeutic work with individuals and couples is longer term, I also offer time-limited solution focussed Dynamic Interpersonal Therapy (DIT) based on my experience in the NHS.<\/span><\/p>\n Clinics in London, Wimbledon (SW19), and Online.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n An accredited member of BACP and UKCP, and BPC accredited DIT practitioner, I abide by the code of ethics of my governing bodies. I am\u00a0committed to continued professional development and have\u00a0undertaken qualitative research on the experience of Uncertainty in therapy.<\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n Crisis Intervention,\u00a0Neurobiology and Sensorimotor Trauma Skills (Fisher<\/a>),\u00a0Deep Psychotherapy (Allan Schore,\u00a0nscience UK<\/a>), Working with Shame (Robert Downs<\/a>), Post-slavery Syndrome and Intergenerational Trauma (Confer<\/a>),\u00a0Depression, body causes and brain consequences (RSM<\/a>),\u00a0<\/span>CBT Theory and Skills, Childhood Sexual Abuse, Safeguarding & Child Protection,\u00a0Family & Belonging, Narrative Therapy, Psychiatric Assessment, Eating Disorders, Self-harm and Suicide, Gender and Sexualities, Working with Refugees (<\/span>The Minster Centre<\/a>), Connections (Philippa Perry), Transpersonal Psychotherapy (<\/span>John Rowan<\/a>),\u00a0Equine facilitated Therapy (<\/span>Ashlar Evolution)<\/a>, Meditation & Psychotherapy (<\/span>Tara Brach<\/a>),\u00a0<\/span>Response to a pandemic\u00a0(RSM, NHS\/IAPT<\/a>), Boarding School Syndrome, The Deluded Self: Narcissism (nScience<\/a>), <\/span><\/span>Coaching Competence (BACP CPD<\/a>), Working with Neglected States (TRTogether<\/a>).<\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/veronikakloucek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Veronika-Kloucek-Therapeutic-Consltancy03a.png” alt=”Veronika Kloucek Therapy” title_text=”Veronika-Kloucek-Therapeutic-Consltancy03a” align_tablet=”center” align_phone=”” align_last_edited=”on|desktop” admin_label=”VK image” _builder_version=”4.23.4″ max_width=”90%” animation=”off” always_center_on_mobile=”on” global_module=”5618″ saved_tabs=”all” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text admin_label=”Contact text” _builder_version=”3.0.87″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” global_module=”5619″ saved_tabs=”all” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Hi, I’m Veronika.
