About Dr. Roger Duncliffe, Counselling Psychologist: Founder of Sona Psychology, London

About Me

As a seasoned HCPC→ and BPS→ registered chartered counselling psychologist, I bring a unique blend of expertise and experience to my practice. With a background in finance and over a decade of working in the corporate world, I understand the pressures and demands that individuals face in their professional lives. This firsthand knowledge allows me to offer specialised support to corporate individuals who are grappling with work-related stress, imposter syndrome, boundary difficulties, and the elusive pursuit of work-life balance.

My Professional Background

In addition to my corporate experience in several global investment banks (Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs and UBS), I have a passion for helping individuals navigate a range of psychological challenges, including substance use/addiction, anxiety, depression, trauma, abuse, men’s mental health, authenticity, relational challenges, self-confidence, self-worth, rejection and many more. My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices, drawing from existential, psychodynamic, and cognitive-behavioural therapies. This integrative approach allows me to tailor my interventions to meet your unique needs and goals. My real value stems from helping you to get out of your own way and onto a path of growth, development and progression.

Other Professional Positions


Outside of my private clinic I am a consultant psychologist with Amplify-YP→ to a variety of global corporations in the fields of banking, insurance and media. We offer brief psychological and coaching interventions for senior leaders and team members to enhance performance and wellbeing. My background of working within demanding global firms and psychological expertise is a perfect fit for individuals dealing with burn-out, substance use, lax boundaries, people pleasing, imposter syndrome, self-esteem alongside anxiety and depression.

What I Offer Clients

What sets me apart as a therapist is my genuine commitment to fostering a supportive and collaborative therapeutic relationship. This for me is the key facet of our work together. I understand that the decision to seek therapy can be daunting, and I strive to create a safe and non-judgmental space where clients are heard, understood, challenged and valued. Whatever your goals, I am here to support you every step of the way.

Together, we can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences, uncovering underlying behavioural patterns and cognitive beliefs that may be holding you back. Through compassionate listening, insightful challenges and practical strategies, we will work together to overcome your obstacles, build resilience, and cultivate a greater sense of self and well-being.

Whether you're struggling with work-related stress, low mood, anxiety, relationship issues, or personal challenges, I am here to help you with compassion, expertise, and understanding. Your journey to growth begins here.
