Georgina Brown
Psychotherapist
Georgina Brown is a dedicated Psychotherapeutic Counsellor with a mission to nurture the emotional well-being of children and families. With extensive experience across diverse settings such as schools, private practice, and online platforms, she brings a wealth of expertise to her practice. She works in private practice with adults, children (0-12 years), and adolescents (13-18 years) at The Awareness Centre in Tooting.
She believes in providing a warm, empathetic, and safe space where every child and family receives a bespoke service tailored to their unique needs. Cultural and gender diversity are deeply respected pillars of her practice.
Grounded in Play, Art, and Movement therapy, Georgina’s integrative approach allows her to think about unconscious patterns of behaviour, addressing unmet needs while fostering self-awareness and agency in her clients. Utilizing creative methods like pens, papers, clay, toys, and puppets, she creates an environment where children—and adults—can comfortably navigate their difficulties.
Drawing from Attachment theory and a Psychodynamic perspective, Georgina remains curious about the origins, purpose, and management of symptoms, while incorporating insights from the Polyvagal and Interpersonal Neurobiological approaches to understand the physiological and biological aspects of these symptoms.
She currently works as a Complex Case Therapist in schools, conducting tailored 1:1 therapy sessions with children, collaborating closely with schools, social care, and families to effectively address therapeutic needs.
As a parent of teenagers and young adults herself, Georgina understands the richness and complexity of these formative years, both from a personal and professional standpoint.
With an undergraduate degree from Durham in Psychology, her initial career was in film and television. Then she returned to study a Master’s in Counselling Children in Schools (Distinction). Georgina is deeply committed to ongoing professional development. Currently pursuing Masters qualifications in Systemic/Family Therapy, she is dedicated to continuously enhancing her skills and expertise to better serve her clients.
As a member of AFT (Association of Family Therapists) and a registered member of BACP (British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists), she is also a Systemic Practitioner - Institute of Family Therapy (2021-2023) and has recent CPD in Mentalization Based Treatment with CYPF (MBT-CYP), Anna Freud (2022) and a Certificate in Parent Child Therapy (GATE) (2021).
