Who Is Ignite

At the heart of Ignite Psychology, we endeavour to create a space encompassed by warmth, compassion and unconditional positive regard.

These corner stones are the building blocks to a strong therapeutic relationship that empowers our clients to feel valued, important, heard and above all safe and understood.

We integrate our therapeutic values into our strength-based, collaborative and holistic approach to deliver individualised psychological intervention, comprehensive testing and treatment as part of our unique goal to support, children, adolescents and their families to ignite the change they need.

Our Values

Care is Cure

By prioritizing genuine empathy, warmth, and safety, we cultivate an environment where our young people and families feel embraced, understood, and cherished.

Compassion Meets Competence

We recognise that true healing not only needs care but also a relentless pursuit of competence and knowledge.

Collaboration Fosters Growth

We understand that progress is best achieved when we work together as a team, involving all parties invested in our young peoples well-being.

Professionalism

We take pride in our commitment to excellence, upholding the highest standards of practice and integrity in all aspects of our work.

The Ignite Team

Patrick El-kazzi

Psychologist

I bring a warm, secure, and genuinely lighthearted approach to our sessions. I prioritize creating a comfortable and safe environment over a clinical one, ensuring that both you and your children feel at ease. Building strong connections, trust, and rapport is central to my practice.

While therapy involves important and serious discussions, I understand that life can be stressful for young ones. Therefore, I harmoniously incorporate humor, play, and authenticity into our sessions alongside competence, making the experience more relaxed and enjoyable.
