# Open Minds UK
Open Minds UK is an independent counselling and psychotherapy practice based in Kingston, South West London, offering both in-person and online sessions. Led by Sigal Shalev, an experienced Integrative counsellor and psychotherapist accredited with BACP and UKCP, the practice specialises in helping clients navigate complex emotional and psychological challenges.
The practice serves individuals struggling with a diverse range of issues including anxiety, stress, anger management, bereavement, childhood trauma, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties and life transitions. Sigal's integrative approach draws on multiple therapeutic traditions to tailor treatment to each client's unique needs, whether they require short-term support or longer-term therapeutic work.
What distinguishes Open Minds is the combination of clinical expertise and accessibility. Sigal is recognised by major medical insurers including AXA, Aviva and Vitality, making sessions potentially claimable for eligible clients. The Kingston location is easily reached via overground stations and bus routes, whilst online options via Zoom, Skype or WhatsApp Video provide flexibility for those unable to attend in person.
Beyond counselling, the practice offers clinical supervision for other mental health professionals and private tuition, positioning Sigal as both practitioner and mentor within the therapeutic community. The emphasis on confidentiality, professional credentials and a comprehensive understanding of trauma-informed practice creates a safe space for clients to address sensitive personal issues with confidence.
