Dr. Kenneth Demsky is an American psychologist who settled in London in September, 2004. Born and raised in NYC, Dr Demsky maintained a private practice in Boston, Massachusetts for 12 years prior to relocating to the UK.
He brings nearly 30 years of clinical experience and a great deal of compassion to the psychotherapeutic encounter. A Harvard graduate, he has a doctorate from the University of Texas and is a former postdoctoral Fellow of the University of Minnesota Medical School.
In America, psychologists are trained as generalists by means of a rigorous and prolonged programme that combines academic coursework and supervised clinical experience. The goal is to equip them to assist many different kinds of people with a wide range of concerns. However, during the past three decades, Kenneth Demsky has developed several areas of special expertise. They are as follows: individual counselling and psychotherapy; couples counselling; treating clinical depression and anxiety; anger management; overcoming compulsive behaviour (in sex, gambling, eating, shopping, etc.); coping with grief and chronic illness; expat and cross-cultural issues; and sexuality and gender disorders. The full details of his training and experience can be found at his website.
He meets with adult and older adolescent men and women as individuals, couples and families. Clients are seen in a private and comfortable setting in Hampstead in Northwest London, and the office is easily reached by all means of transportation; directions are available.
