Dr. Leandro Tolmos - Adult Psychotherapist
I am an experienced Counselling Psychologist and Adult Psychotherapist working with individuals going through a wide range of concerns. I have particular experience with adults navigating migration(s) and life transitions that can bring up feelings of isolation, loneliness, or questions around identity and meaning.
I offer both short-term and long-term psychotherapy from a psychodynamic approach and while my work is rooted in psychodynamic principles, I adapt my way of working to each person’s needs and pace.
I have over ten years' experience in mental health and therapeutic settings, including the NHS, higher education institutions and private practice. I am fluent in Spanish and welcome clients who feel more comfortable working in that language.
