    Dr Achilleas Dalamagkas

    I am a Child and Educational Psychologist with many years of experience working across England and Greece in both private practice and local government settings. This diverse background has given me a comprehensive understanding of working with schools, families, and most importantly, children and their individual needs. My greatest passion lies in listening to children and ensuring their voices are truly heard, which brings me immense reward knowing they feel understood and valued.

    I also work within the charity sector, supporting families and children affected by cancer and helping to connect them with other vital agencies and resources. This collaborative approach ensures that families receive the holistic support they need during challenging times.

    When I'm not working, you'll find me enjoying some well-deserved downtime on my PlayStation, walking my dog, experimenting with new baking recipes, or teaching dance classes in my local gym. These activities help me maintain balance and bring fresh energy to the meaningful work I do with children and families.

    James Ingram

    I am an integrative psychotherapeutic counsellor with extensive experience working in the charity sector, where I have dedicated many years to supporting individuals through bereavement and loss, cancer care, and facilitating therapy groups whilst managing services. I now work in private practice and have the genuine pleasure of delivering training to the NHS and other organisations, which I absolutely love doing. My professional journey has been deeply rewarding, allowing me to witness the remarkable resilience of the human spirit during life's most challenging moments.

    When I'm not in the therapy room, you'll find me tending to my garden, practising yoga, cooking, or out walking with my dog. I also love to travel when I can, as exploring new places brings me great joy and helps me maintain a sense of wonder about the world. These activities ground me and remind me of the importance of nurturing both body and spirit alongside the meaningful work I do professionally.
