THE ISLINGTON PSYCHOLOGY CLINIC · LONDON

Quiet care for complex seasons of life.

A calm, grounded psychology clinic led by Director and Clinical Psychologist Katie Lee, supporting adults, adolescents, and families through complex periods of life.

Care notes

Sessions that make room for the whole context — body, history, home, and relationships.

OUR APPROACH

Therapy should feel steady, specific, and human.

We work slowly enough to understand the patterns beneath the present difficulty, and practically enough that each session leaves you with something usable.

Care can include individual therapy, family sessions, parent consultation, or collaborative planning with other supports — shaped around the person, not a fixed programme.

Katie Lee, Director and Clinical Psychologist.

Katie Lee is an HCPC-registered Clinical Psychologist with more than a decade of experience helping people navigate complex and challenging periods in their lives. Having trained and worked in both Australia and the UK, she brings a broad perspective shaped by experience across acute, community and specialist NHS services.

Katie currently works in the Department of Neuropsychiatry at the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery, part of University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. Across her career, she has developed particular expertise in trauma, eating disorders, functional neurological disorders and autism assessment and treatment.

Her work is also informed by intermediate-level training in systemic psychotherapy. This enables her to consider not only an individual’s difficulties, but also the relationships, family dynamics and wider systems that may be influencing their experience.

Katie’s therapeutic approach is integrative, collaborative and evidence-based. She draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, EMDR, Mentalization-Based Therapy, Schema Therapy and mindfulness-based approaches, tailoring her work to the needs, circumstances and goals of each person.

Alongside her clinical practice, Katie contributes to professional teaching and has presented at a Royal College of Psychiatrists conference and NHS teaching events on topics including trauma-informed care, psychological support in intensive care and persistent physical symptoms. She has also completed training in the ADOS-2 and ADI-R, supporting her specialist work in comprehensive autism assessment.

Katie offers a thoughtful and compassionate space in which people can develop a clearer understanding of their difficulties and identify meaningful ways forward.

WHAT IT FEELS LIKE

A considered first session, not a performance.

We begin with the pace, language, and boundaries that help you feel oriented. You do not need a perfect story — only a starting point.

Appointments available in person and online.
