Martina Crivelli, Integrative Psychotherapist

“Whether navigating emotional turbulence or simply seeking deeper clarity, you are welcome here in a space of empathy, authenticity, and transformation.”

My Therapeutic Essence

My integrative approach weaves together humanistic and psychodynamic perspectives, with a strong focus on presence, deep listening, and authenticity. I believe that change begins when we feel truly heard — not judged, not fixed, but understood. Whether you’re feeling lost, disconnected, or overwhelmed, therapy offers a space to pause, to reconnect with yourself, and to make sense of what’s happening. Together, we explore at your pace, building a relationship that supports healing, clarity, and meaningful change.

Relationship Issues

My approach is non-judgmental and rooted in understanding the emotional complexity of intimate relationships. I help clients explore patterns that may be causing disconnection, conflict, or distress—whether in romantic relationships or broader relational dynamics. Through compassionate dialogue and informed insight, I support my clients in identifying what’s not working and discovering new ways of relating. Every person is unique, and I tailor my work to honour their emotional language, cultural background, and specific challenges.

Specialisms & Focus Areas

I support individuals and couples—across diverse cultural backgrounds—with challenges including:

  • Anxiety and low mood
  • Life transitions (career, relocation, identity, grief)
  • Relationship difficulties (couples, family, interpersonal)
  • Stress, self-worth issues, and self-discovery
  • Addiction

Whether your concern is emotional, relational, or existential, I offer a compassionate, attuned environment where you can feel truly seen and supported.

What You Can Expect

  • A warm, collaborative space to reflect, heal, and grow
  • A bespoke therapeutic partnership where your pace and goals guide the work
  • Innovative support through equine-assisted sessions (in nature) or traditional counselling (room- or online-based)
  • An opportunity to deepen self-awareness, heal past wounds, and cultivate resilience

Languages & Cultural Competence

I work fluently in both Italian and English and am committed to creating a culturally sensitive and inclusive practice. My aim is to build safety, understanding, and trust—especially for clients navigating the complexities of living between cultures or languages.

My Experience & Qualifications

  • BA (Hons) in Humanistic & Social Studies – Università Cattolica del Milano
  • Postgraduate Diploma in Integrative Counselling & Psychotherapy – Roehampton University
  • Registered Member of a professional UK body (e.g., UKCP, BACP)

Equine Assisted Psychotherapy

Alongside traditional in-room talking therapy, I also offer equine-assisted psychotherapy. These sessions- no riding involved- provide a grounded, physical space. In today’s digital age, where devices and social media give the false illusion of being connected, horses offer profound immediacy and authentic feedback, anchoring us in presence and emotional truth.
