Dr Sabina Bedi – Consultant Counselling Psychologist – London

Dr Sabina Bedi serves as Consultant Counselling Psychologist at Harwood Child Psychology in London, where she specialises in supporting children, adolescents, and families through online therapy. She earned her BSc in Psychology and a Post‑Masters Diploma in Counselling Psychology, and she holds registration with the Health and Care Professions Council as well as Chartered status with the British Psychological Society. Over more than twenty years, she worked in both inpatient and community CAMHS services. Consequently, she developed deep expertise in anxiety, trauma, and low mood, which she applies directly to her sessions at the practice.

Furthermore, Dr Bedi leads Harwood’s counselling stream, designing tailored interventions that align with each young person’s needs. She integrates evidence‑based models—such as EMDR, trauma‑informed CBT, Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)—to address a broad spectrum of emotional and behavioural challenges. Moreover, she supervises trainee counselling psychologists, ensuring that the practice maintains rigorous clinical standards. Therefore, families benefit from both her hands‑on experience and her leadership in professional development.

Throughout her work at Harwood Child Psychology, Dr Bedi prioritises building a strong therapeutic relationship. She uses clear, compassionate communication to help young clients feel safe and engaged. As a result, even those who initially resist support often become active participants in their care. Her holistic approach considers the child’s strengths, family context, and school environment to create a cohesive pathway toward improved well‑being.
