Adults
Dr Alla Montazer first began her training with a BSc (Hons) in Psychology at University College London, before completing a Doctorate in Counselling Psychology (DCPsych). Her path has taken her through NHS and charity services, supporting children, adolescents, and adults, which has shaped the way she now works with clients.
In the therapy room, Dr Montazer brings a flexible approach. She draws on training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR). She integrates multi-cultural considerations into her work and tailors her approach to each individual client, maintaining a person-centred therapeutic stance and integrating different modalities according to each client’s needs. She also has a particular interest in compassion, mindfulness, emotion regulation, and understanding the impact of trauma. All clinicians at The Chelsea Psychology Clinic are trained to conduct comprehensive assessments, considering you as a whole person rather than a specific issue.
She works with individuals facing a wide range of challenges, including Depression, Anxiety, Relationship issues, Stress/Burnout, Self Esteem Difficulties, and has specialist experience in PTSD.
