Binta Patel

Binta Patel is a life and relationship coach at Dental Wellness London with an additional specialism in de-armouring - a body-based modality for releasing held physical and emotional patterns. Her work covers individual coaching, couples coaching, and the body-based work that complements them. The training: ICF ACC (Associate Certified Coach) - the International Coaching Federation's accreditation, one of the main globally-recognised coaching credentials. De-armouring training in structured body-awareness, breath, and specific touch protocols to access patterns the body holds out of conscious awareness. Couples coaching specialism. What Binta personally delivers at DWL: individual coaching (pricing on enquiry - benchmarked to London market · 60 minutes) for life-stage transitions, career and relationship decisions, personal growth work; couples coaching (£195 · 60 minutes) for communication, conflict patterns, partnership health, and major joint decisions; de-armouring sessions (£295 · 2-2.5 hours) for body-based pattern release where the work requires the depth and pace of longer sessions; contributions to integrative pathways across the clinic. Coaching is distinct from psychotherapy. Coaching focuses on present-and-future goals, forward movement, and action; therapy works substantially with past processing and psychological healing. Many patients benefit from both at different times. Binta is clear about scope at consultation - for patients needing psychotherapy specifically, GP referral or specialist services may be more appropriate. De-armouring is one of the more body-intensive modalities at DWL. Sessions are longer than standard coaching (2-2.5 hours) reflecting the depth of work. It suits patients comfortable with body-based modalities and looking for substantial pattern release. Not suitable for everyone - assessed at consultation. For couples coaching, joint sessions cover communication patterns, conflict structures, partnership health, and major life decisions. Binta works with couples at various stages - new relationships, long-term partnerships, post-conflict repair, pre-decision planning.
