About Me
​
My name is Hagit Zucker, I am a counselling and educational psychologist accredited by the HCPC and a chartered member of the British Psychological Society (CPsychol).
​
My therapeutic approach is integrative, combining psychodynamic theory with cognitive-behavioral techniques. I believe that sensitive, compassionate, and empathic psychotherapy can lead to genuine improvement in quality of life, and I am happy to explore with my patients a path to growth and change.
​
I have experience working with a wide range of struggles, including anxiety, depression, relational and social difficulties, ADHD, emotional regulation challenges, and the impact of stressful life events. My work is guided by a psychodynamic perspective, with a strong focus on relationships and the ways in which early experiences with significant figures shape emotional life and expectations of others. In therapy, I work collaboratively with patients to explore how these relational patterns may emerge in their current relationships and influence their sense of self and overall well-being. I have also supported many individuals through periods of transition, such as moving to new schools or workplaces, relocating, or adapting to new environments.
​
I hold a Master’s degree (M.A.) in Psychology from Ben-Gurion University, where my research focused on potential ways to moderate high inhibition in individuals with restrictive eating disorders, such as anorexia nervosa.
​
My professional training took place in Israel, where I interned as a psychologist. During this period, I provided therapy for children and adolescents, conducted parent consultations, and carried out comprehensive psychological assessments. I also worked closely with educational settings - including schools, nurseries, and special educational needs institutions, offering consultation and guidance to support students’ wellbeing and development.
​
Following my internship, I worked as a senior group therapist at a private institute in Tel Aviv, a centre well known for its focus on developing social skills through individual and group therapy.
Currently, and alongside my private practice, which I run in both London and Oxford, I also work as a psychologist at Monday.com, where I provide short-term therapy and emotional support to employees. In this role, I help individuals manage workplace stress, enhance emotional regulation, and develop strategies to maintain wellbeing and balance in a demanding professional environment.
​
Over the past decade, I have continued to deepen my professional knowledge through seminars and courses at the Tavistock and Portman Clinic, the Anna Freud Centre, and the Institute of Psychoanalysis in London. These experiences have strengthened my understanding of psychoanalytic and psychodynamic approaches and have enriched the therapeutic work I do today.
​
I am also a co-founder of Insight Centre, a specialized ADHD and cognitive assessment centre focused on evaluations and follow-up interventions.
