When it doesn't feel okay
to be who you are

Psychotherapy · Balham / Clapham South · English & French

Adjusting who you are to meet other people's expectations is exhausting. Often, underneath it, there's a feeling of not being enough as you are. Knowing that isn't true rarely makes it go away. In my experience, what really helps is understanding where it comes from, at your own pace. Slowly, the same situations start to feel less charged, and you trust your own read on things a bit more, rather than second-guessing it.

About Me

I'm Capucine, a psychotherapist based in Balham/Clapham, South West London. I trained at the Metanoia Institute, and before that I worked as a scientist. I still do. I think it shaped how I listen: carefully and without rushing to conclusions.

I offer therapy in both English and French.

Psychotherapy Services in South West London

People come to me for anxiety, depression, burnout, panic attacks, neurodivergence, or simply a sense of being different. Often, it comes back to feeling like you have to earn your place. That's what we work on together.

Anxiety and panic attacks

Racing thoughts, constant worry, or a body that won't switch off, often from wondering if you're too much or not enough. We work on understanding what's driving it, not just managing the symptoms.

Depression

Low mood, low energy, a sense of going through the motions, sometimes the quiet weight of feeling you're not quite enough as you are. Space to understand what's underneath it, at your pace.

Burnout

When you've been running on empty for too long, still showing up but unable to remember what it felt like before. Support to recover, and to understand what led you there in the first place.

Neurodivergence

If you're autistic or have ADHD, or recognise yourself in that experience without a label, you're likely navigating a world that wasn't built with you in mind. Therapy here starts from your experience, not a diagnosis.

Low self-confidence

A quiet sense that you're not quite good enough, no matter what you achieve. We work on untangling your sense of worth from what you do.

Parenting neurodivergent children

Raising a child who experiences the world differently can bring guilt and shame that's rarely spoken about, on top of the exhaustion. Space to process what's hard, without judgement.

Sessions are £70 for 50 minutes.
