About Close Therapy

My name is Neha Ghedia and I am a highly experienced and qualified psychotherapist with over 19 years of experience working with children, young people, individuals, couples, and families. In addition to my private practice, I am also associated with Relate. 


I have dedicated more than 250 hours via private counselling to supporting veterans, members of the RAF and RNMC, and their families. My work includes addressing the unique challenges of transitioning from deployment to daily life and managing the psychological and physical impact of exposure to intense and traumatic situations during service.The impact on the family, social lives as well as professional role after deployment. 


Private Clinical Supervision

I am a CPCAB-qualified Counselling Supervisor with over 100 hours of supervisory practice, providing private supervision to student, trainee and experienced/qualified counsellors.


My supervisory practice is grounded in an integrative, relational and reflective approach, offering a safe and supportive space to explore client work, therapeutic relationships, professional development and ethical practice.


I have experience supervising both trainee and experienced counsellors and also lead a Clinical Counselling Group Supervision, facilitating reflective practice, shared learning and professional development within a collaborative setting.


My aim is to provide supervision that is supportive, thoughtful and appropriately challenging, helping counsellors develop confidence, self-awareness and clinical thinking while maintaining a strong focus on ethical and effective practice.


Private supervision is available for student counsellors, trainee counsellors and experienced practitioners.
