Vaughan Psychology
About Me
Hello, my name is Dr Tamara Vaughan, I am a Chartered Counselling Psychologist, registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and the British Psychological Society (BPS).
I have over 10 years' experience facilitating therapeutic groups, offering specialist assessments and individual therapy sessions in the NHS, charity and private sector. At present, in addition to my private practice, I work as a Senior Counselling Psychologist in the NHS and as a Guest lecturer to a number of postgraduate programmes in London.
I am passionate about people’s mental health and well-being; whether that be working together to help you recover from psychological, emotional and relational difficulties or, ensuring that you are maintaining your general psychological well-being.
Tamara was an absolute pleasure to work with. I felt wholly supported by her throughout the process and she really helped me to develop emotional resilience. Thank you so much!

My Approach
For many of us, the decision to come to therapy can be a daunting one. Sometimes, we have been feeling overwhelmed, hopeless or distressed for a long time and although we think we know what the problem is, we are unsure about how to address it. Alternatively, we may have simply been living with a sense that something isn’t quite right and not know where to begin.
Whatever your reasons for coming to therapy, I will always offer a warm, nonjudgemental and compassionate therapeutic space in which you can talk about your experiences openly.
Drawing on my skills and expertise in psychodynamic, humanistic and cognitive behavioural therapies, I will offer flexible and bespoke support that allows you to gain a greater insight into your specific and individual difficulties
We will work collaboratively to ensure that your therapeutic needs and goals are always being met so that you can feel genuinely heard and empowered throughout the process.
