Feedback about therapy with Lauren

“After struggling with social anxiety and depression for years, CBT has honestly helped me tremendously. With only occasional feelings of anxiousness and unease, I can now live my life with much more ease and less worries.

My therapist, Lauren, made me feel at ease from the start and was very professional, warm and friendly. She came up with different ways to help me deal with anxiety which proved to be effective.

I learned different methods on how to deal with anxiety in situations and that my thoughts were always inaccurate or false. I gained much-needed confidence in public and around people.

Overall, I am completely satisfied with my therapy and would recommend CBT to anyone.” — FH


What is CBT?

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is an evidenced based & well researched talking therapy. It is recommended by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) for many mental health problems.

It is most commonly used to treat anxiety and depression, but can be useful for many other mental and physical health problems.

CBT focuses upon how your thoughts and behaviours impact upon your emotions and physical symptoms.

CBT is collaborative treatment and typically involves doing homework tasks between appointments.

It aims to teach you to become your own therapist, teaching you tools so you can keep using the strategies and techniques you have learned after you have finished therapy.
