Effie Hicks, BACP

Effie Hicks is a London-based psychotherapist who draws on eight years of clinical experience to support adults, couples and children. She holds a Masters degree in psychotherapy and healing and is a registered member of the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Her practice combines private and voluntary sector experience and focuses on creating a warm, interactive space where clients feel heard and understood.

Working as an integrative psychotherapist, Effie blends Jungian, psychodynamic, mindfulness and person-centered approaches to tailor therapy to each person’s needs. Her sessions are designed to be flexible and responsive, adapting techniques to address presenting concerns while respecting individual pace and preferences. She also offers Jungian dream analysis, inner child work and play therapy for children as part of a broader toolkit.

Effie was inspired to train after benefiting from therapy herself, and she brings that first-hand awareness to her clinical work. She aims to support clients with openness, warmth and curiosity as they heal, change and grow. Areas she commonly works with include depression, anxiety and stress, anger management, relationship and family issues, self-esteem concerns, trauma and abuse, bereavement, sleep difficulties, and eating or food-related challenges.

Effie also addresses attachment and abandonment issues, codependency, communication and intimacy-related problems, blended family dynamics, and cultural or parenting concerns. She offers sessions in English and Greek and accepts international clients, providing a compassionate, individualized approach to help people navigate life changes and build resilience.
