Jamila Andersson

I am a mixed Filipino-Nigerian integrative transpersonal psychotherapist, and I bring my whole self—my heritage, my lived experience, and my ongoing journey of healing into the work I do. I understand what it means to navigate multiple worlds, to carry the weight of intergenerational trauma, and to search for a sense of belonging that feels true and whole.

My path to psychotherapy was not linear. It was shaped by my own experiences of burnout, chronic pain, and the quiet ache of not quite fitting anywhere as a mixed race person. Through my own therapy and training, I discovered that healing is not about erasing our stories, but about learning to hold them with compassion and curiosity. This is the work I now offer to others.

I am a Full Clinical Member of the UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP), having completed extensive training in integrative transpersonal psychotherapy. My approach draws from psychodynamic, humanistic, and attachment-based theories, as well as somatic and transpersonal practices. I am also a Master Facilitator for "The Challenges of Racism" and a co-facilitator for Conscious Culture, and I have presented my work at the Kaleidoscope Conference (November 2025).

I work with individuals who are navigating mixed-race identity, narcissistic family dynamics, chronic pain, burnout, anxiety, low mood, and shame. I am particularly passionate about creating a space where cultural multiplicity is honoured, where the body's wisdom is listened to, and where the soul's longing for meaning is taken seriously.

Outside of my practice, I am committed to ongoing professional development and supervision, ensuring that I bring the best of myself to this work. I believe in the power of therapy to transform lives, and I am honoured to walk alongside my clients as they remember who they truly are.
