Dr Amen Eghosa-Aimufua first began her training with a BA (Hons) in Philosophy and Psychology at Durham University, before going on to complete an MSc in Health Psychology at the University of Surrey and her Doctorate in Clinical Psychology (DClinPsy) at Canterbury Christ Church University. Her path has taken her through the NHS, charity sector, and private practice, supporting adults, children, families, and couples, which has shaped the way she now works with clients.
In the therapy room, Dr Eghosa-Aimufua brings a compassionate and collaborative approach. She draws on training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and other behavioural therapies such as Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), mindfulness-based approaches, and a particular interest in humanistic, psychodynamic and attachment-informed practice. Her approach focuses on a deep understanding of how early attachment experiences, relational patterns, and cultural context can shape mental health, offering space for people to bring their whole selves to therapy.
All clinicians at The Chelsea Psychology Clinic are trained to conduct comprehensive assessments, considering you as a whole person rather than a specific issue. They tailor treatment and integrate multiple therapeutic perspectives to create a plan that is both evidence-based and uniquely suited to you.
Dr Eghosa-Aimufua works with individuals experiencing a wide range of challenges. This includes common challenges such as depression, anxiety, stress/ burnout, relationship challenges, and adjustment to life changes, as well as concerns around self-esteem or identity. She also works with complex presentations such as trauma, bipolar disorder, bereavement and phobias. She also has specialist expertise in perinatal mental health, supporting individuals, couples, and families during pregnancy, birth, and the postnatal period.
Alongside her therapy work, Dr Eghosa-Aimufua continues to work across clinical settings, reflecting her commitment to making compassionate, culturally informed psychological care accessible.
