About Tina Chummun

As a UKCP accredited psychotherapist, trauma specialist and wellness coach, I bring a depth of clinical experience and scientific understanding to our work together. I’ve supported hundreds of clients through thousands of client hours, from all walks of life in working through:

• Childhood sexual abuse.
• PTSD and trauma.
• Domestic violence.
• Grief and bereavement.
• Anxiety, depression and emotional regulation.
• Identity loss and self-esteem.
• Cultural conflict, racial trauma and discrimination.
• Burnout, career transitions and life direction.
• Addiction, emotional abuse and relationship breakdown.
• Narcissistic family dynamics and enmeshment trauma.
• Suicidal thoughts and feelings of hopelessness.
• Stress, overwhelm and inner child work.
• Many more mental health concerns.

You don’t need to have a specific label or diagnosis to seek therapy with me. If something in your life feels completely off or too heavy to carry alone, I’m here, and you’re welcome to work with me exactly as you are.

I trained at the highly respected Metanoia Institute, a high quality experiential training programme, completing a UKCP accredited course with the highest masters of science qualification awarded by Middlesex University. UKCP accreditation ensures the highest standard of psychotherapy training, requiring years of study, personal therapy, shadowing psychiatrists within the NHS, regular clinical supervision and continuous professional development. It also means that I follow strict ethical codes of conduct, uphold confidentiality and I am committed to your emotional safety and well being at all times.

I’ve worked for organisations including:

• The Woman’s Trust.
• Wandsworth Bereavement Service.
• One in Four.
• The Havens, King’s College London (within the NHS).

I have over 11 years of experience in private practice and I have built a reputation for warm, collaborative and person centred therapy that meets you where you are. 

I’m currently completing a Doctorate in Health and Social Care with The Open University. My long term goal is to become a Counselling and Health Psychologist, bringing together my lifelong passion for mental health, medical science and psychology. This will allow me to gain future membership with both the BPS (British Psychological Society) and HCPC (Health and Care Professions Council).

Why does this matter to you?

Because these career plans show my dedication to providing you with the highest possible standard of private healthcare. I’m not just a therapist who shows up and listens, I’m constantly learning, researching and evolving to offer you a service rooted in evidence based practice, trauma informed care, and neuroscience led compassion. I really want to help you to become more of what it means to be you.
