About
Shem Lopez is an integrative psychotherapist registered with the UKCP (United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy). He works both in person and online, using a variety of therapeutic approaches and interventions to support clients in living a life guided by their own values and to achieve goals with those values as a compass for action.
Shem meets each person as a unique individual and provides a confidential, non-judgemental, protective space where clients are encouraged to voice their struggles and concerns honestly and authentically. His work focuses on helping people make sense of their internal world and develop greater self-awareness so they can form more meaningful connections with themselves and others.
Through increasing openness to patterns of thinking and feeling, what was once implicit becomes more explicit, allowing clients to expand their choices in how they relate to themselves, to other people, and to the situations they encounter.
Shem has particular experience working with anxiety, trauma, panic attacks, depression, anger, psychosexual difficulties and couples counselling or relationship issues. He has been in private practice since 2012.

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?
Many people wonder if online therapy can really make a difference. For most common concerns - such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes - online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions. A key benefit is flexibility. Clients can connect in the format that suits them best - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging - which makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Licensed professionals provide the care, and if someone decides they would prefer a different fit, it is usually possible to switch therapists. Online therapy can be a practical, accessible option for addressing everyday mental health and relationship concerns.How much experience does Shem Lopez have?
