Irma Tarlarini ; Counselling, Sex & Relationship Psychotherapy

---

I am passionate about working with and supporting Individuals, Couples, and all Relationships, strongly believing that the more we understand our relationship with ourselves, the more we can learn to develop healthier relationships with others. Human beings relate to each other constantly; babies need relationships with secure adults for their survival.

My approach provides the warmth, energy, and professionalism to support you in understanding yourself, your relationships with others—whether platonic or intimate—and your relationship with the world we share. Together, we'll explore your thoughts, behavior, embodied reactions, and how you identify with your sexuality, gender, ethnicity, culture, religion, spirituality, and how this affects your relationship with yourself and others in your home, work, family, and environment.

I offer anxiety and depression support to adult clients, explore past trauma whether emotional, sexual, physical or neglect, offer support for suicidal thoughts, self-harming, or low self-esteem. We work together for you to gain a deeper understanding of your life story, how you adapted to your environment since childhood, so gaining insight into present difficulties and concerns. 

I provide relationship counselling for all adult relationships, including couples, addressing sex and intimacy concerns, as well as estrangement and conflict within family dynamics, between adults and parents, and between siblings.

I support couples and intimate relationships within all frameworks, including Monogamy, Open-Monogamy/ENM, and Polyamory.

My training and experience within a senior school counselling service has provided invaluable insight to support teenagers. I will listen to your teenager, helping them unravel their thoughts, supporting them to understand themselves with clarity, and enabling them to learn more about their relationships with friends, peers, teachers, parents, and carers.

My clients and I work together for as long as you wish, to find your answers within yourselves for greater self-compassion and self-acceptance.

I am registered with BACP and NCPS (Accred), following the Ethical Framework for the Counselling Profession. I am also a BUPA Registered therapist, able to offer lower fees for BUPA members.

Further details of my psychotherapy services can be found on my Services page, so please take a look.

I passionately believe in building therapeutic relationships with all clients so, if you are interested, email me and I'll respond within 24-48 hours to answer any queries, arrange a free 15-minute Online Consultation or start our work straight away.
