FRAUKE REQUARDT    Psychotherapist
 
ABOUT ME

I have a private practice in south-east London, offering individual therapy, couples therapy, and self-development work, online and in person.

My training is in Existential Psychotherapy and Focusing-Oriented Therapy, and I'm currently training in Somatic Experiencing®. These approaches can be especially helpful if you’d like to understand yourself more deeply, make sense of what you’re going through, and feel more at home in your body. You can read more about these practices here.

I’m originally from Germany and moved to the UK in 2000 to study dance. Alongside my psychotherapy practice, I still make dance work and this creative background continues to shape how I listen and work with people.

I live in a neurodivergent family, and I have a lived understanding of how different neurologies can shape experience in ways that can be both enriching and challenging.

Witnessing some of the changes people are able to make has brought me much joy: a softening of long-held suffering, a growing self-acceptance, the moving towards a life that feels more manageable and more enjoyable.

My practice is inclusive and welcoming. I work with people from all backgrounds, cultures and beliefs, sexual orientations and genders, and abilities, from young adults through to older adults.
