Counselling and psychotherapy in Central London.
                                                                                  Damian K. Tamre (MBACP, BSc)

I trained as a counsellor/psychotherapist at Thames Valley University in London and started my counselling career in 2007 at Waltham Forest Mind - the agency offering short-term counselling to clients from very diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds. In 2008 I started working for Ealing Abbey Counselling Service in West London, and at the same time I also started seeing clients privately.


I moved to London six years ago, originally I come from Estonia, a small
and beautiful Nordic country right next to Finland. Before becoming a psychotherapist I worked in many different professions in Estonia, Russia,
UK and Scandinavia, translated books and poetry, and wrote sometimes articles and book reviews about psychotherapy, spiritual development and mental health. I am also a masters-level qualified psychologist and have worked for some time as a counselling psychologist in one of Estonian prisons. My other long-term interest beside psychology and psychotherapy has been Oriental philosophy and practices - I have been practicing meditation and martial arts since I was in my early twenties. I am fluent in both English and Estonian, and I can also speak Finnish and Russian. My other hobbies and interests include photography and a wonderful moving meditation practice called 5Rhythms dance.


I am a full member of British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP) and a member of Society for Existential Analysis - the organisation of existential counsellors and psychotherapists in the UK. Currently I am also a member of the SEA committee, and the organiser and main facilitator of SEA monthly existential discussion groups.

What clients have said
about Damian:

"What I found most helpful was your presence and your patience with me … you just listened and showed your interest and support, without trying to fix me or to show me how clever you are."

Noel C.

"For the first time I realised that there is another human being who wants to meet and hear that child in me. I can't even put it into words … it just threw me off my feet."

Terry S.

"When you noticed my voice changing when I was telling you about my boyfriend, I somehow felt heard for the first time …"
