Experience and Background

Margaret Lambert MA MBACP RCSPC

  • UKCP Registered Psychotherapist & Counsellor & Clinical Supervisor
  • MA (Distinction) Psychoanalytic Studies
  • Advanced Diploma in Counselling and Psychotherapy
  • Diploma in Supervision

I worked initially as a counsellor in an NHS hospital and with a bereavement service. I set up in private practice over 20 years ago and in that time have gained a wealth of experience in working with abuse, anxiety, bereavement and loss, childhood trauma, depression, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, work-related issues, personal development, spirituality, sexuality, chronic anger, traumatic experiences and lack of direction in life.

Personal Approach

I practice integrative psychotherapy which means that I have trained in several models of therapy. I draw from psychodynamic, humanistic and person-centred, approaches which allows me to offer the type of therapy, or combination of therapies, that is most appropriate for the particular needs of each client.

My approach is particularly suited to people who want to understand themselves better as well as tackle problematic issues or areas.


I offer a secure and confidential professional relationship, through which problems can be identified, confronted and worked through in the privacy of regular, reliable sessions. My work is confidential and respectful of ethnic origin, gender, age, sexual orientation, religion, politics, culture or nationality.

Professional Qualifications

I have an MA in Psychoanalytic Studies from Goldsmiths College. I gained an Advanced Diploma in Psychotherapy and Counselling from Regent’s College and a Diploma in Supervision from wpf therapy.

I am registered and accredited with the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP). I am also a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and abide by their Code of Ethics and Practice which assures you a high standard of professional care.


I have had my own extensive experience of individual psychoanalytic psychotherapy. I am engaged in Continuing Professional Development and have ongoing supervision and personal psychotherapy.
