Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Psychotherapy, Managing emotions, Oxford Circus

Difficult to understand or manage your emotions? You just need to learn how.

Counselling and psychotherapy – or talking therapy [1]– are about building on a positive relationship with your therapist or counsellor, a springboard helping you make sense and manage your struggles. They’re also about learning tools and coping strategies to deal with your difficulties and move on towards the life you want.

No one-size-fits-all. We are all different and thus therapy is a very personal and subjective experience. We specialise in a range of evidence-based therapy and counselling options, from short/medium term CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) to mindfulness, schema and compassion-focused, and from person-centred to psychodynamic approaches. We are trained to work with individuals, couples and families and adapt therapy to tailor it around your unique needs and desires.

How therapy works

Worry and Low mood?
Anger or Anxiety? You are not alone.

Did you know that one in four people have some mental or emotional health issue?[2] These issues can affect thoughts, emotions, behaviours and even our body thus disrupting your normal life.

Whatever problems you are experiencing right now we believe these are normal reactions to difficult life circumstances. It might feel that other people don’t get it but we understand and have the skills to help.

Whether you’re experiencing anxiety, depression, bereavement, low self confidence relationship issues, work stress, anger issues, OCD, PTSD or personality disorders, our counsellors, psychotherapists and CBT therapists in London can help you manage these difficulties and live the life you want.

Issues we can help with

Online Therapy, Telephone Therapy, Remote Therapy

Therapy in London, Face to Face, Online or via the Phone. We're here no matter what.

If you have a physical impairment or simply want the flexibility and comfort of your home. Whether you’re too far from our London practice or are coping with the COVID-19 Pandemic, therapy does not have to stop.

Online counselling and therapy have been proven to be as effective as traditional face to face therapy [3].

Remote, online therapy and counselling, via a video-link (e.g. Skype, Facetime, Hangouts etc.,) or telephone therapy are effective options which can allow you to start to work on your issues effectively from anywhere in the world. Request it here.
