Laura Chernaik

My name is Dr Laura Chernaik. I am a psychoanalyst, psychoanalytical psychotherapist and supervisor. I offer open-ended psychoanalytical psychotherapy, psychoanalysis, or supervision in East London : Leyton, Walthamstow, Dalston, and Hackney. If you are interested in walk-and-talk, Walthamstow and Hackney Marshes are nearby. Psychoanalytical sessions can be once-weekly or 2-5 times a week. At the moment, I have space available for 2-4 times weekly psychoanalysis and weekly, fortnighly, or monthly supervision. I'm sorry, but the once-weekly psychoanalytical psychotherapy places are full. I also have space available for couples therapy. I also have space available for supervision. I offer a free 20 minute phone or video-chat to anyone considering psychoanalysis, couples therapy, or looking for a supervisor--email me and we'll find a good time for a free 20 minute consultation. If you would like supervision, psychoanalysis, or couples therapy, please get in touch. As a psychoanalyst and supervisor, my approach is based on listening. A psychoanalytical approach emphasises thoughtfulness and change; care and compassion are the heart of the work.Together, we can explore a new way of being in the world. It's rare to be truly listened to, and that's what psychoanalysis or psychotherapy offer--a chance to be heard, a chance to explore your feelings and ideas. Do you want time and space to talk? I'll listen. That's the heart of psychoanalysis. Are you anxious or depressed-? Do you sometimes wonder what effect the past has had on you? Do you have questions about relationships and sexuality? Artistic practices, from writing to the visual arts, are a particular interest of mine. Would you like to talk through ideas for your artistic practice- Are you working on interdisciplinary or experimental genres and would you like to explore relations between theory and practice? Every analysand is unique and the questions are wide-ranging and unexpected. Having had an international clientele for many years, I have extensive experience of working online. Sessions can be in-person in my consulting room in East London, online by video-call, or walk-and-talk in Hackney and Walthamstow Marshes. I also work with couples.
