Practical therapy, at your pace

Understand the pattern
Make room for change

CBT explores how thoughts, feelings and the things we do can keep a difficulty going. We’ll make sense of your own experience and try manageable changes that fit your life.

That could mean spending less time replaying conversations, reducing repeated checking, or gradually facing situations you have been avoiding.
