How We Can Help

Good therapy depends on understanding the problem before trying to solve it.
Our assessment exists to ensure treatment that is focused and right for you, so you invest in therapy that works rather than therapy that misses.
In a full 90-minute clinical session with one of our founding CBT clinicians, you will build a clear map of how your difficulties developed and what keeps them going.
Afterwards, you will be sent a written summary of your formulation, along with tailored treatment recommendations.
The report is yours to keep, whatever you decide next. There is no obligation to continue, you decide whether treatment with us is right for you.

CBT with us is active, structured and time-limited. Rather than open-ended talking, each session is focused on the goals you set with your therapist and the patterns identified in your formulation.
Much of the change happens between sessions, so you'll usually agree small pieces of work to try in daily life. We track progress throughout using standardised outcome measures, so you can both see what's shifting and adjust the plan. Most courses run between 8 and 20 sessions, in line with NICE guidelines.
The aim is always to build skills you can carry forward on your own, not to keep you in therapy indefinitely.

What is CBT?

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a structured, evidence-based psychological therapy that focuses on the links between our thoughts, emotions, physical sensations, and behaviours. CBT is based on the theory that difficulties are often maintained by unhelpful thinking patterns and behavioural responses, and that making small, targeted changes can lead to meaningful improvements in wellbeing.
CBT is a collaborative and practical approach. Therapy typically involves working together to develop a shared understanding of current difficulties, identifying patterns that may be keeping problems going, and learning strategies to respond differently. This may include exploring thought processes, behavioural experiments, coping strategies, and skills to manage emotions more effectively.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is widely supported within UK clinical guidelines developed by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) — the body that sets evidence-based standards for health and care in England, and is frequently referenced in UK clinical practice.
CBT is recommended within NICE guidelines as a first-line psychological therapy for many common mental health difficulties, including depression and anxiety disorders, and forms part of standard clinical pathways used in services such as NHS Talking Therapies.
NICE also includes CBT within treatment recommendations for anxiety disorders and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), advising that trauma-focused CBT should be offered to people with PTSD as part of the core psychological treatment options.

Our Psychotherapists are all appropriately trained and hold UK-recognised CBT qualifications, alongside extensive experience in working with vulnerable adults, both within the NHS and privately. Our therapists are fully accredited under the BABCP (British Association for Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies).
The British Association for Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies (BABCP) is the UK’s leading professional body for Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). It sets nationally recognised standards for CBT training, accreditation, and clinical practice, helping to ensure that CBT is delivered safely, ethically, and to a high professional standard.

Fill in our short online referral form. This helps us understand your difficulties and check that our service is the right fit for you.
Then, one of our founders reviews your form within 2–3 working days. We will contact you to let you know whether we can offer you an appointment, or to signpost you to more appropriate support if needed.

If accepted, you will be invited to book and pay for a 90-minute Assessment & Formulation Session (£135).
This is a structured clinical appointment, not a trial therapy session.
You have a choice to have your assessment online or face to face at one of our London locations, at the same price. Whatever suits you best.
Your assessor will carry out a full CBT assessment, develop a shared formulation with you (a map of how your difficulties are maintained), and discuss treatment recommendations.
We take a full 90 minutes deliberately. A proper formulation can’t be rushed into a standard therapy hour, and the care taken at the start is what makes everything after it more effective.

If CBT treatment is recommended and you would like to proceed, you will be matched with a therapist and offered treatment sessions. Online sessions are £90 and face-to-face sessions are £110 (50 minutes each).
Sessions are focused and goal oriented. We use standardised outcome measures throughout to track your progress. Most courses of treatment run between 8 and 20 sessions, in line with NICE guidelines.
