Effie Ekpo, BACP
About me
My work is client focused and led. The sessions are warm and heart felt. It is a meeting of hearts, a space where you are seen and heard. I provide a space for my clients to bring and explore whatever is on their mind. The space created is non judgmental. Over 5 years I have worked with clients who have brought a variety of issues including Anxiety, Depression, difficult family relationships, identity and challenges of living in diaspora, dealing with race and racism, issues around self doubt, body dysmorphia, serious illness (cancer) and so much more.
I look forward to seeing, listening and giving you the container space to let go and make sense of everything.

Effie has been invaluable as a therapist in helping me to deal with and overcome the childhood trauma that I have experienced. He’s been thoughtful, kind and always considerate and I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Have been having sessions with Effie for about two months and have greatly felt the benefit. He is a wonderful listener, quickly understands your issues and helps identify the reasons for them and ways to start looking at things in a healthier way.
