Finding the right therapist is personal.
Therapy is built on relationship. Qualifications and experience matter, but so does finding someone you feel comfortable talking to – someone you can begin to trust and with whom you can feel understood.
At Elgin House, we bring together a carefully selected community of counsellors and psychotherapists with different backgrounds, areas of experience and ways of working.
All of our therapists are members of recognised professional bodies, including the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) or the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS), and work within their professional and ethical frameworks.
Some of our practitioners are also recognised providers with Bupa and AXA Health.

Our practitioners offer a range of therapeutic approaches and areas of experience, allowing us to help you find support that feels right for you.
Integrative Counsellor (MBACP) | Coach | Grief Specialist | Educator & Consultant
Grief & loss · Anxiety · Burnout · Identity & belonging · Life transitions
Dipti is a compassionate and experienced integrative counsellor and therapeutic coach who brings warmth, insight and a deep understanding of the complexities of being human to her work.
She supports adults navigating grief and loss, anxiety, relationship difficulties, identity, self-worth, cultural expectations and significant life transitions. Her approach is thoughtful, collaborative and gently challenging, creating a space where people feel genuinely heard, understood and able to explore their experiences without judgement.
Drawing on a range of therapeutic approaches, Dipti recognises that our experiences are shaped by our relationships, personal histories, culture and the wider world around us. She works with sensitivity and curiosity, helping clients deepen their understanding of themselves, recognise patterns and discover new perspectives and possibilities.
Alongside her private practice, Dipti is Head of Teaching at a counselling training institution and a university lecturer, contributing to the development of future therapists. She is also an established grief educator, speaker and consultant, working with organisations to deepen their understanding of grief, emotional wellbeing and cultural differences in the workplace.
As the founder of Elgin House London, Dipti brings together her clinical expertise, educational experience and belief in the power of genuine human connection.
Dipti believes that life can sometimes place us in circumstances that feel overwhelming, uncertain or impossible to change. At other times, we find ourselves stuck in familiar patterns, unsure how to move forward. Yet, with the right space, support and understanding, even what feels immovable can begin to shift – allowing us to find our own way forward with greater clarity, confidence and a renewed sense of possibility.

Children & adults · Bereavement & loss · Anxiety & low mood · Trauma
I am an experienced and supportive therapist, offering a warm, welcoming and non-judgmental space for adults navigating loss, change and uncertainty. This might include workplace difficulties, redundancy, relationship changes, or other significant life transitions.
Alongside my therapeutic work, I have 15 years’ experience working in education with young people, supporting them through exams and the many transitions that school life can bring. I have a particular interest in supporting young people and their families through periods of change, including separation and co-parenting.
My approach reflects Elgin House’s ethos.
So you will be offered a confidential space to be heard, a supportive space to reflect, and an encouraging space to grow in mental capacity and resilience.

Integrative Counsellor and Coach
I am a counsellor who coaches with a Post graduate diploma in Integrative Counselling and Coaching from the University of East London. I am also a Member of the BACP.
East London has always been a home for me, so I am delighted to join with Elgin House after a period of practice with a community-based counselling service west of London. Prior to counselling, I spent many years as and teacher of children and adults, advising schools and working in Special Needs education, supporting pupils and parents across London and abroad.
As a counsellor, I will meet u as a client ‘where you are’; together we will explore what brings you here, working with your thoughts and feelings so that you are able to move forward. My practice is firmly anchored in person centred therapy, though I may bring in other counselling approaches and techniques in a way that will be uniquely tailored for you and should clients wish, our sessions mayinclude an element of coaching support.
