You might recognise yourself here

  • You grew up being the sensible one, the mediator, the emotional support.

  • Your needs came second, or weren’t clearly named at all.

  • As an adult, you may feel guilty, anxious in relationships, or unsure who you really are underneath it all.

How therapy can help

I work with adults who were shaped by emotionally immature or emotionally unavailable family relationships. Therapy offers a steady, reflective space to understand how these early dynamics show up, and to develop a stronger, more compassionate relationship with yourself.

Amy Launder

Psychotherapist

I specialise in working with adults impacted by emotionally immature, volatile, unpredictable, or unavailable family dynamics.

In therapy, we’ll gently explore your past, untangle the emotional patterns you’re carrying, and work towards a version of life that feels calmer, clearer, and more grounded.

I hold a Master’s degree in Psychotherapy and Counselling, a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology, and a Graduate Certificate in Counselling Psychology, and have completed advanced training in areas like narcissistic relationships, emotional abuse, gaslighting, and complex trauma.

What therapy with me is like

I work in a thoughtful, relational way, paying close attention to how early family dynamics continue to shape your inner world and relationships.

Therapy isn’t about fixing you or revisiting the past for its own sake. It’s about understanding what you had to learn early on, and how those patterns may no longer be serving you.

We move at a pace that feels manageable, with space for reflection, emotion, and real insight.

Therapy sessions are £90 for 50 minutes.

I offer a limited number of online and in-person sessions, working from my therapy space in Clapham Junction.

If you’re considering therapy, the first step is a free 15-minute consultation call.

This is a chance for us to talk about what’s bringing you to therapy, how I work, and whether working together feels like a good fit, both therapeutically and practically.
