Therapy
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a treatment of choice for anxiety and mood disorders, OCD and PTSD. It is also highly effective for helping with other common difficulties, including low self-esteem, worry, poor sleep, appearance and weight concerns, anger and coping with the impact of physical health or life-changing conditions.

STEP 4
Endings and next steps
We review the benefits of sessions regularly, to make sure these are focused on the difficulties and goals that are most important to you and planning for the end from the very beginning helps keep your goals in clear sight.

STEP 3
Getting started with therapy
In CBT sessions, we will develop a shared understanding of your current difficulties (a formulation) and identify specific goals you would like to work towards. Many people experience significant improvement within 8 – 14 sessions, but depending on the reason for having sessions, some people need more than this.

STEP 2
Therapy assessment
Our aim is that you'll leave an assessment feeling confident about what can be done to help, with a plan for the how, why and when.

STEP 1
Introductory consultation
If you are considering our cognitive behavioural therapy services, we offer a free 30 minute consultation to talk through any questions you may have.

What our patients say
You have both been incredibly kind and nothing has ever seemed too much trouble. The information, guidance and signposting to more sources of support will be invaluable.
It was a real pleasure to talk to people who really understood the complexity and subtlety of my son’s autism...it was great to see how you got beneath the surface to get the real story from him. You were kind, empathetic, encouraging and generous.
Very pleased that we were able to take advantage of their skills to assist [our son] in getting the diagnosis and help that he needs.
This was the best interaction I’ve ever had with professionals, they were super supportive and consistently made sure I was comfortable, and really took the time to understand me and my needs.
