Rhoda Agerbak, MBACP

Rhoda Agerbak became a Christian as a student in London in 1986 while studying a combined degree in Medicine and Psychology. She married her husband, Andrew, in 1989, and together they have raised four adult children—a doctor, a barrister, a management consultant, and an aspiring actor.
Rhoda has served in the mission field in both Stockholm and Oxford before settling in Harrow, Northwest London, where she has lived on the same street since 1998. Her career has spanned teaching and school-based mental health counselling, and she now works as a mental health counsellor specializing in adolescents. In her current role, she serves as an independent contractor within the National Health Service’s Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services, providing both one-to-one and group support.
Over the past decade, Rhoda has developed a particular focus on working with teenage boys, including those involved in cases of child-to-parent domestic violence.
