Creating Safe and Engaging Spaces for Children: Monique's Expert Use of Play Therapy

“Monique is incredible with children (and adults!), immediately finding ways to connect and create safe and secure spaces to share. Monique uses play to ensure children are engaged and present. Through working with our daughter, Monique has helped her both open up but also to help her develop the tools and techniques needed throughout life and has done an amazing job building her confidence and resilience. Monique has also been accessible and clear with us as parents and helped us understand how best to support our daughter. I have nothing but praise and highly recommend Monique. “ Mr and Ms Tait (Therapist - Monique Howie)

Compassionate Support for Neurodivergent Clients: Monique's Role in Overcoming Anxiety and Depression

“During the pandemic, my daughter began to struggle immensely with anxiety and depression. She was experiencing regular panic attacks and found it hard to leave the house. She had undiagnosed ADHD and ASD, and when school reopened, she was unable to go back full time. Finding the right psychotherapist was crucial, and we were fortunate to have found Monique. Her compassionate and gentle approach has been a cornerstone of my daughter's recovery. 

When my daughter was diagnosed with ASD, Monique's experience with neurodivergent clients meant she was able to recognise the impact on my daughter's mental health. Her work with Monique has been a central part of her recovery, especially in terms of self-awareness and confidence: she is now able to attend sixth-form college full-time, having completed her GCSEs, has a weekend job she enjoys, and is able to socialise and plan for the future. 

We are deeply grateful for the positive impact Monique has had on my daughter's life.” Anonymous (Therapist - Monique Howie)

Nurturing Growth Through Challenging Times: Monique's Skilled Approach to Adolescent Therapy

“My son has seen Monique for over 2 years and their relationship and work together has been at the heart of his growth through the tough teenage years, characterised by school absence, bullying, anxiety and depression. Monique creates a space that is open, safe and warm, enabling my son to explore the challenges he experienced and feel fully accepted and validated.  Monique’s approach and support has been invaluable in allowing exploration of alternative perspectives in a nurturing and non judgemental space.  The strength of therapeutic relationship and compassionate, skilled approach to the therapy has supported him to emerge from mental health difficulties and find his identity, strength, humour and ability to navigate his place in the world, on his terms. “ Anonymous (Therapist - Monique Howie)

Monique's Compassion and Understanding Make Online Therapy Seamless

“Monique is amazing. She is non-judgemental, understanding, encouraging, supportive, and compassionate. She helps me navigate my feelings and experiences without putting blame onto myself or other people and without judgement of my actions or others. She is great at providing me with extra resources and coping mechanisms so I can better understand myself and help myself in my every day life. She has made the "online" aspect of therapy feel seamless and as if we are in a room together, I feel more connected to her than I have done other therapists who I've met with in person.” Annie (Therapist - Monique Howie)

“My overall experience has been amazing. I did initially think it was quite expensive but now I have done 8 months of therapy, I wouldn't change my therapist for the world and it is definitely worth the investment.” Annie (Feedback about My Therapist Online)

Dr. Tracy King: A Compassionate and Insightful Guide to Understanding Your Emotions

Claudia's Expertise in EMDR: A Journey of Healing with Compassion and Insight

“I was slightly apprehensive about EMDR, but it has been brilliant. Claudia has massively helped me on this journey to process some difficult memories.

She always knew what questions to ask to tap into memories of mine that I haven't thought about for years. She is a truly wonderful therapist and I am so pleased we were matched up.

I highly recommend Kevin for his approach, and for the results we achieved.” Johnny (Therapist - Dr Kevin Scott)

Gemma's Brilliant Experience with Sarah's CBT and Compassion Focused Therapy

“Sarah is amazing! I came to Sarah in one of my worst states of anxiety in the last 15 years. I'd heard from some people that CBT had helped them so was specifically looking to try this form of therapy and upon reading her bio page I felt she'd be a good fit for many reasons. From the very start I felt very comfortable with Sarah and I looked forward to my sessions. Sarah helped me uncover lots of imbalances in my life, which I wasn't expecting to be such a key focus of my therapy at all! She then helped guide me through doing the work myself, leading to realisations I was not expecting and we veered into Compassion Focussed Therapy too, which was an unexpected and invaluable part of my journey. Sarah has given me so many techniques to walk away with in case anxiety starts trying to seep in again, but I feel like I'm walking away so much stronger and with a huge toolbox in my back pocket in case I should need it. I can't recommend therapy enough, and if you're thinking of getting in touch with Sarah... do it now!!!” Gemma (Therapist - Sarah Kenny)

Personalised Therapist Matching and Comprehensive Resources at My Therapist Online

“My Therapist Online makes it very easy to review therapists to suit your need - it feels like a very personal service. Of the suggestions I was given I agreed that I wanted to see the therapist they recommended most. There was so much information and helpful video links from my therapist on their page which meant I had a really in depth idea of their experience and how they could help me. The complimentary intro session was really helpful too to get that final confirmation that they were for me. I'd recommend MTO to anyone who was looking to take that step in their mental health journey.” Gemma

“She is very kind, caring and has helped me immensely” Jennifer (Therapist - Elena Georiou)

“Very professional and easy to use". A positive overall experience” Jennifer (Feedback about My Therapist Online)

Mary's Warm and Empowering Approach to Therapy

“Mary is a very warm person and quickly put me at ease with a good rapport from the off. She explained EMDR thoroughly (without being too technical!) and identified some additional areas of focus before we started processing work, all while listened intently, encouraging and giving reassurance where I needed it. I was relieved not to feel like I was under the microscope, but rather like she was expertly guiding me through a process I had chosen to do. This was not only supportive but also empowering, and I come away with a genuine feeling of accomplishment, as well as some techniques that I will continue to practise.” Jo (Therapist - Mary Ion)

Seamless and Supportive Start with My Therapist Online

“Getting started with My Therapist Online was quick and easy while at the same time unpressured and encouraging. You are first asked to outline what support you are seeking, with guide questions (rather than a check list or just a large box to fill in). There were really useful for focus whilst also allowing me to express freely what felt pertinent, giving as much or as little detail as I wanted. I was quickly offered two therapists with appropriate experience and once I had chosen, was quickly put in touch. This process was all very efficient, and emails throughout the process from matching through to invoicing were always professional, thorough and supportive. I have been really impressed. Also grateful.” Jo

A New Perspective: How Susana's Unique Approach Transforms Lives

“I was initially sceptical about this type of therapy. I'd tried other types before and nothing had quite worked out well enough. There were also elements of this therapy that were almost anathema to my way of thinking. But I saw results within weeks and things I had thought were important in my life no longer were. Susana's natural calm and warmth proved to be a great entry point into the treatments. A casualness and friendliness almost mask her intelligence, professionalism, and ability to recognise the root causes of issues. I have already recommended her to others.” Anonymous (Therapist - Dr Susana Lara)

A very warm and kind therapist who I highly recommend.” Ellie (Therapist Sarah Kenny)

Tailored and Efficient Therapy.

“I could not recommend Dr Tracy highly enough. She very quickly understood my personality and the speed at which I liked to operate - never spending too much time on topics that I had processed and could move on with but sufficient time on topics that needed a bit more support. I had a concern that there may never be an 'end' to my therapy journey before beginning but with Tracy I always felt that she was not in the business of dragging things out for the sake of it. Super professional, knowledgeable and empathetic with the ability to use humour when required. A perfect therapy professional for me. Most importantly I feel great once more!” DG (Therapist - Dr Tracy King)

Overcoming Health Anxiety: My Journey with Therapist Sarah Kenny

“I have been suffering from health anxiety for some years, which progressively got worse at the start of 2023. I was matched with Sarah Kenny as my therapist and she focused on CBT to help me tackle my health anxiety, amongst other things. I never thought I’d see the light at the end of the tunnel as it was consuming my life, however, through hard work and determination with the help and guidance of Sarah I got there. She is calm, attentive, kind and overall very easy to talk to. She did not ever judge me, tell me what I was feeling was wrong or ever make me feel silly. Her guidance helped me to focus on my goal and she provided ample resources to help me outside of my sessions. I am very grateful for being matched with Sarah and 8 months later I can proudly say I no longer suffer from health anxiety.” Mia (Therapist - Sarah Kenny)

Fostering Trust and Comfort in Therapy - Natálie's Empowering Experience

“Giulia is an incredible person and therapist. She's very easy to talk to and open up to, which was a problem for me, but I found myself telling her things I never talked about with anyone, that was very important for me. She's very soft spoken, and has a calming demeanour, which was perfect for me to feel comfortable to talk about what I needed to talk about. I chose to go to therapy, mostly for my anger issues, and Giulia knows how to address anger management in a way that is easy to understand. I've been burnt before, when it comes to therapy, but I am very happy with the service Giulia provided. I am also transgender, and though its not something I really discussed with her, she's very respectful, and that was very important for me to trust her. She made me feel heard and seen and respected, and I couldn't be happier with my choice to start therapy with her.” Natálie (Therapist. - Dr Giulia Shembri)

Transformative Sessions with Elisa Marcellino and Seamless Service Experience at My Therapist Online

Finding Self-Compassion. Experience Kindness, Validation, and Thoughtful Guidance with Sarah Kenny at My Therapist Online

“My therapist created a safe space for me in our sessions. I felt listened to, and validated throughout. I felt like she really catered my sessions to me, and I learned more than I could have hoped for. I really appreciate her kind and compassionate approach; it played a big role in me becoming kinder and more compassionate with myself. I also find it really hard to put how I feel and what I think in to words, and my therapist was extremely good at synthesising my thoughts and reflecting these back to me. She was also very gentle when kindly challenging the way I might have judged or criticised myself. In saying that, she also never failed to validate how I felt in those moments. I honestly can't thank her enough. She has played such a pivotal role in my life.” Joanna (Therapist - Sarah Kenny)

Unlock Personal Healing and Self-Advocacy: How Monique Howie Empowers Clients with Trust, Support, and Customised Online Therapy at My Therapist Online

“I started working with Monique a little over 2 years ago, after the death of my mom. Our initial work was focused on this.

Monique is so compassionate and reassuring that I was really able to build up trust with her. This led to me being able to share more of my mental health struggles. This was a real learning curve for both of us, as I was able to open up more, and we had to adapt our way of working to this. I also sought some extra support from psychiatrists and other doctors around this time.

Monique is always so supportive. She helped me to tackle these challenges with a mixture of practical support, such as writing referral letters to different opportunities, and emotional support, through helping me to explore how I was feeling during this time. She has the perfect balance of lightness when we need to laugh about something, and also to feel with me when things are heavier. When she gives me advice, I really trust her opinion.

In the other direction, by trusting me, she has also given me a trust in my own decision making, and that I know what is right for me. Thanks to Monique I learned that art really helps me to be able to explore my feelings, and I'm so grateful to her for encouraging me to work in this way. She is always learning new things to help support me, and engages in everything I bring to her with such care. Our relationship is so special to me. It really gave me hope to have someone really listen to me, and have someone on my side through the last two years.

Monique has really given me the courage to explore different treatments and advocate for myself. She has also given me hope that I will be able to recover.” Erin (Therapist - Monique Howie)

James’s Journey to Freedom:. Overcoming the OCD Monster with Victoria Lumley's Guidance

“Before, I was afraid. I was scared. I was anxious. I felt isolated. I felt confined. I was not me. It wasn’t normal. My OCD was severe, and the OCD Monster took over my life. I felt controlled. I couldn’t do what I wanted to do. It was like a war between me and the monster. I felt like I had no help at all. Doing everything 3 times, constantly washing my hands, completing everything perfectly until it was PERFECT. But no one is perfect. So my compulsions had no logical outcome. It was a trap. I thought I had lost all hope… until Victoria and CBT!

When I first met Victoria via video call, I felt nervous, but also determined to defeat this monster who completely controlled who I was. On the first session we had together, we completed a check-up… to see how severe my OCD was. And it was much worse than I thought. But the only way to defeat a monster, is to trick the monster. Victoria’s ways of overtaking the OCD monster were genius. We began portraying the monster on paper, imagining what it looked like and what it was feeling and why it was forcing my brain to do things I didn’t want to do. We started testing compulsions, making the monster think that I was going to give in… but that was the trick. At first, I did give in, and that was completely fine, because it was a learning process. As the sessions went on, I progressed each time, and eventually, I won the battle.

Gradually, I became VICTORIous more and more. The OCD monster was shrinking day by day. I finally felt in control of my life again; even if it was just a small part of my life, it was still a small part of my life I had control of. And that was another battle won.

 Over time, I became more triumphant. It was like a war. I was conquering the OCD monster until it became a piece of NOTHING! I remember the few days where I felt completely in control of my life again. It was just so… freeing. I was excited! I was elated! I was over the moon! I felt FREE! I WAS FREE!

 All of mine and Victoria’s hard work had paid off!

 Don’t get me wrong, I sometimes have little slips, little bumps in the road where the monster comes back for a split second, and then disappears again. Those times will always occur. But that is just who we are.

 Victoria has not only helped me with my OCD, but also with any problems I have in my life. She is such an AMAZING person who I will always remember. I cannot thank you enough, Victoria, for all of the help you have given me. I cannot thank you enough, for saving me. You have helped me, my family, my friends. Before, they were in it with me, and they still are, but because I am in a much better place, so are they. So thank you, Victoria. Thank you so much!

 One last thing… before, I was petrified. What was happening to me, I thought wasn’t normal. But Victoria helped me to realise that it was normal. Everybody feels anxious, afraid and have immense worries in their life. Now, I realise that (with Victoria’s guidance), what was happening to me was normal. I am free. And one day, you will be too.” James, Age 13  (Therapist - Victoria Lumley)

Georgia's Multidimensional Healing. A Testament to Wendy Turton's Empathetic Approach and Expertise

“Wendy has been the best therapist I've had so far. I've been in therapy before due to traumas and how it has been impacting my current life today and only after working with Wendy I feel I had a breakthrough and experienced some deep healing.

Its difficult to put in words as it affected me on different levels. I felt truly seen, heard and understood during the sessions , also I could feel genuine empathy and understanding, also lots of patience.

At the end of each session Wendy would come with the solution or what to practice during the week till the next session. I also liked her explanations and analysis of my feelings, and it worked for me very well.

During the course of therapy I started not just to see my situation and relationships in my life more clearly , I also started to feel much stronger in my life. Before I started the sessions with Wendy I used to go into deep depression and very low mood, my only solution was to dissociate from situations in life, now after working with Wendy I feel strong enough to deal with challenges and situations.

It was healing for me on many different levels and I can honestly say that sessions with Wendy impacted my life immensely for the better and I will be forever grateful for that. I would recommend Wendy 100% for anybody . Her therapist skills, ability to attune, to understand, perceive and transform are excellent and she has been a real support in my life for all this time. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.” Georgia (Therapist - Wendy Turton)

Danni's Empowering Journey Overcoming Emetophobia with Gráinne's Expert Guidance

“I can’t thank Gràinne enough, I chose her because she was experienced working with emetophobia (a fear of vomit), something which is common but misunderstood by therapists I’d seen before. She took the time to really understand my behaviours and the driving force behind them, and then over a number of sessions she put together a coping strategy for me. A few of things she did that were fantastic:

1) helped me understand the physical and psychological process behind vomiting which helped me to appreciate the process and took some of the fear out of it

2) used gradual exposure and exercises to help me normalise it (Eg seeing pictures, watching videos, listening to sounds).

3) ran a session where I ‘revisited’ myself as a child to understand how the fear started and what I needed at that point to tailor the therapeutic approach to my specific needs Gràinne went at a pace that suited me, I let her know when I was ready to move to a new exposure, so I never felt out of my depth.

Gràinne is friendly and professional and she understood that I wanted therapy to be a positive experience and I felt that we actually had fun with it, we laughed, we chatted, we did jumping jacks together after lunch (part of my therapy not just for fun!), and I’ve come so far thanks to her.

People looking to get over this fear know how debilitating it can be, and thanks to her help I can watch people being sick on tv without flinching, I can eat prawns and chicken and get on a boat, I can calm myself down and rationalise feelings of uncertainty or discomfort and the best thing ever… I put up with 3 months of pregnancy nausea without a single panic attack or any stress, and coming from someone who never thought I’d be able to have children because of my fear, this is just amazing. It’s great to know I can book future sessions if I run into any setbacks.

A review just doesn’t do justice to how much my life has changed because of her carefully planned sessions and I’m so pleased I took the step to get help, thank you Gràinne.” Danni (Therapist - Gráinne Butler - Anxiety Disorders Expert)

Jack Credits Life-Changing Transformations to Grainne Butler: A Lasting Impact Beyond Therapy Sessions

“It is no exaggeration to say that Grainne Butler has changed my life, I joke with her that one of the first things I ask myself when in a tough situation is "WWGD", What Would Grainne do. It may seem silly but the effect that she has had on my way of thinking and approaching all life situations cannot be overstated. I initially chose Grainne for two reasons, firstly, because of her expertise with Emetophobia which is why I needed therapy to begin with and secondly, because in the brief introduction video she had available I could tell that she would be incredibly patient with me when I needed, but also always pushing me when I needed it and keeping me on track and progressing rather than letting me ramble on for an hour. She is someone who genuinely cares for her clients and is always keeping up to date with any new pieces of therapy or techniques she has learnt that she thinks may be useful and I really cant speak highly enough of her, she is someone who will stick with me for the rest of my life and I owe her so much of what I have achieved” Jack (Therapist - Grainne Butler)

“I was a little reticent about using MTO (although their testimonials were positive). My previous attempts at therapy had been failures, so I wondered whether this would be any different.

After an initial consultation I was convinced that this was the "right fit" and embarked on a 2 year therapy journey.

Discovering Renewed Purpose and Drive with Therapist Dr. Susana Lara

“I was very happy about the therapy. Susana really helped me to develop new habits, not only perspectives. And that led to a completely new way of life that I used to only dream of, and now I am living it. Overall, it gave me a lot of freedom in thinking, helped out of a strong anxiety, feeling of failure and disappointment from myself.

I can say that after the therapy, I found peace and Susana helped me to develop a high quality tailored approach to my own life based on who I am and my ambitions rather than some "common right sense" as a lot of people used to push me into. She helped me to sort out my goals, build on who I am, and get the drive I missed for a very long time. I am able to shake off very quickly from failures and frustration and get rid of being overwhelmed much quicker.

I think the best feedback I can give is the results it brought and that in fact, over the past few months I almost fully finished an engineering project that I am planning to bring into business, I am launching another company besides, and creating ambitious plans for further education and career. And while this kind of life style always bring frustrating moments and tiredness, I feel like I am able to get through it in an easy going pace focusing on what I want instead of getting lost in disappointment.” Anonymous (Therapist - Dr Susana Lara)

Navigating Flight Anxiety and Beyond: Lara's Constructive Journey with Claudia Mayfield

“I switched therapists because I didn't feel my therapist at the time (a therapist external to MTO) was able to provide specialist support relating to my primary reason for seeking therapy (fear of flying). Claudia was the therapist recommended by MTO because of her specialty and availability (online therapy). I have been working with Claudia since February 2022 and it truly has been a great experience.

I used to feel anxious before my therapy session because the sessions often felt unstructured - with Claudia the sessions were structured, there was always a clear objective within the session and sessions linked to one another which helped me feel like there was direction. Claudia is warm, supportive, kind and non-judgmental which is even more important during online video calls where it can be harder to build a rapport. I was provided with concrete techniques which were easy to use especially in preparation for flights and during flights.

I also found that Claudia's approach was holistic, looking at other areas as they arose (e.g feelings around my experience during the Beirut explosion, and more general social anxiety) and finding ways to discuss them or manage them. Through this I've been able to connect some of the feelings of anxiety/negative thoughts with one another and that's made it much easier to understand how to manage them. Overall, working with Claudia has been a pleasure and I would definitely work with her again in the future.” Lara (Therapist - Claudia Mayfield)

“I found MTO to be professional and organised. I appreciated the initial process whereby MTO recommended a therapist based on my needs whilst also providing alternative options as that made it feel like I was receiving tailored support. I recently recommended MTO to a friend particularly because of this initial process and because of my experience working with Claudia.” Lara (Feedback about My Therapist Online)

She made me feel extremely safe - I can't recommend her enough!” Nikki (Therapist - Claudia Mayfield)

Building Trust and Addressing ADHD. An Empowering Journey with Monique Howie

“I think online therapy only works when you’re able to form a trusting relationship between yourself and your therapist. Monique has been so caring in her support, which gave me the tools and self belief to tackle my personal struggles. It’s not to say I’m perfect now, but after a year of working with Monique, I can honestly say that I feel so much balanced as a person. The thoughts and feelings which were detrimental to my self confidence, I feel as though I can handle.

I should say most importantly Monique has helped though one of the more sensitive parts of my life which has been my ADHD diagnosis. I still struggle a lot with my ADHD but it feels good to be able to share my day to day struggles with someone who is nonjudgmental and can provide clarity on things I may feel uncomfortable to share with friends and family at the moment .

I should also say that Monique provides that individual care such as alerting me multiple times before my therapy sessions to ensure I don’t forget, which was happening on a few prior occasions. I am and will always be grateful for the help and support from Monique and I am grateful for the trusting relationship we have been able to build.” Anonymous (Therapist - Monique Howie)

Overcoming Public Speaking Anxiety and Achieving Leadership Excellence with Linda Solbrig

‘FIT has indeed proved to be very effective, and continues to be with my “lifestyle and performance changes”.

Presentations for example have become much less nerve racking and as result much more effective. I enjoy the space I have earned. I had bad public speaking anxiety before with all the physical symptoms of a panic attack.

I have been working hard on delivering with impact now since I can focus on it which is a result of my work with Linda, and that is getting noticed at C level tier of leadership. As a direct result, I have been nominated for the future leaders programme, which is the path way to the next level of management (just one below CEO level).’ Anonymous, 2022, Head of Asset Optimisation and Governance of a sustainable energy company (Therapist - Linda Solbrig)

The result has been engaging with therapy that has helped me tremendously over the last six months.

Online Therapy - I did have reservations about online therapy because I have had in person therapy before and didn't know if it would be as effective as being in person. These reservations were put at ease straight away- there was no difference for me meeting online with a therapist.

Navigating Uncertainty and Mastering Tools to Combat OCD with Grainne Butler

“I did therapy sessions with Grainne for a year, starting off weekly and going down to every couple of months. At the beginning, it was hard to put my trust in someone, especially after previous difficult experiences with therapists. But she was immediately accommodating and set rules, giving structure to the sessions. She always stopped me before I dived into the ins and outs of a story or confessing, and was more interested in me living by my values and doing cost/benefit analysis. We also went through rumination models and worry postponement, wrote out affirmations, organised my daily and weekly must-do activities, and, most importantly, I learnt to accept and navigate uncertainty and anxiety. I had a whole load of tools by the end that I could turn to when OCD took over. I know I really put the work in to welcome healing. But Grainne was an integral part of this. Thank you so much.” Anonymous (Therapist - Grainne Butler - OCD Specialist)

“My therapy with Stephanie has been amazing. I experienced a recent trauma and EMDR was recommended by MTO. I had no expectations beforehand and I haven’t done EMDR before. I was sent some information on the process before my first session which was extremely helpful as I felt like having some knowledge eliminated any worries about the process. However, I was still able to go into the therapy with an open mind. I was amazed that there was a shift in my mindset after the first session. Although part of the process was going back to the trauma which was difficult, I felt like I could trust the process with Stephanie and felt in safe hands. Stephanie made me feel totally at ease, I felt safe, understood and validated, Stephanie was with me every step of the way. I can honestly say my therapy with Stephanie has been life changing. I am able to move forward after the trauma I experienced, which I never would have imagined before undertaking therapy.” Caroline (Therapist - Stephanie Harris)

I was prone to obsessing, and ruminating to the point of making my life extremely uncomfortable by creating a monster of my anxiety. I didn't know how to stop myself. And then with Shari's help I discovered that I didn't have to.

I simply had to deal with my thoughts and feelings in an entirely different way, and it all started to make complete sense. I wish I had done this in my 20s it would've prepared me better for life.

Rediscovering Joy - Rhiannon's Transformational Journey with Shari Woolley

“I had never had any experience of any sort of therapy before so I was apprehensive but Shari put me at ease very quickly. I was in a very anxious state and although we had arranged a date for my first appointment things got so bad that I asked if she could speak to me earlier and she did. At the first session Shari taught me some techniques to help me cope better.

The most important thing to me was that she gave me a belief that I would get better.

Throughout all the sessions Shari was understanding, encouraging and empathetic. Shari’s aim was to give me the tools so I could become my own therapist. To get the most out of the therapy I had to work on the tasks that I was given to do every week.

When we were nearing the end of our sessions we worked on a relapse prevention plan which I found very helpful. Without Shari help I would not be where I am today with my anxiety under control and enjoying my life once again I would wholeheartedly recommend Shari to anyone who needed the help of a therapist.” Rhiannon (Therapist - Shari Woolley)

Christina was wonderful - she immediately saw what I needed help with and was always compassionate and kind. However, even more importantly than this, she really got me to reflect and recognise that I needed to identify and change the unhealthy patterns of thought and behaviours I had slipped into.

She has helped me immeasurably with working on identifying my needs, creating healthier patterns of behaviour, setting healthy boundaries and creating a toolkit for my future. Often our sessions were revelatory on a personal level. I have made some big decisions and changes in my life following my sessions with Christina and I feel reconnected to myself and trust myself again.

Prioritizing Progress. My Transformative Journey with Sarah Kenny

“I’d like to let you know how valuable therapy has been to me so far in my search for better management of my obsessions and compulsions. Sarah Kenny is one of the best investments I have made this year, and I have had so much time back and less anxiety with her key buzzwords and methods of exercises to help in CB areas. The self help work she gave between sessions is continuing to go really well too. The most effective work is the strategic methods we've developed from ignoring certain “magical behaviour” patterns and then the best part, how she helped use my stubbornness against feeling compelled to do something,

I’ve had hours gifted back to me in life and it actually humours me when they happen which is amazing. I’m smiling now thinking of some of them that wasted so much of my time pre therapy. Almost like laughing at a bully. I have Sarah Kenny to thank for all this and am truly grateful for her time and effort. I stopped sessions after session 6, mainly as it’s due to my new head space, pushing me to make a commitment to more work related courses, so time to fit everything in is becoming an issue, but.. technically, I’d not have bought them if it wasn’t for Sarah’s help, It’s great!

My time with Sarah was always a priority for me. Prioritise therapy in order to make bigger more permanent changes, thats so important for people to know, I had positive progress after 6 sessions due to making her my priority, then slowly, family and work became priority. I believe this happened sooner as I put work with her first. I will be in touch with Sarah in the new year to have further sessions to check in in the spring to make sure I’m continuing to head in the right direction. Thanks Sarah. “ EP (Therapist Sarah Kenny)

"Kevin was my very first therapist as I was always worried about going, and had put it off. It was helpful to be supplied with 3 therapists and picked one, which is where I found Kevin. He was really sensitive and supportive, and I liked that he could make me laugh. He was really good at taking note of things I have said in previous sessions and linking them.

I thought I would struggle to talk for an hour (about myself) but I actually found it really easy. He seemed to have a great pulse of what needed more immediate attention to talk through to improve my day to day, and then also built up to bigger things.

I really recommend Kevin for anyone feeling a bit nervous about the therapy experience as he will keep you at ease!” KF (Therapist - Dr Kevin Scott)

“The EMDR therapy helped improve my feeling, thought process and ability to regulate my emotions following a terrible trauma. It was not easy to start with but overall it was worth the pain of having to relive the experiences of the trauma. Online therapy was convenient, no need for travelling, everything was done in the comfort of my house. The therapist (Bouchra) was very flexible, prepared me well for what I was to experience.” PM (Therapist - Dr Bouchra Yassin)

“The service is a really reassuring and supportive way into your first step to therapy. My Therapist Online help you feel like you have a contact should you need to query anything. And then gives you access to great professionals. The platforms and communications are clear and helpful. More then recommend!

Kevin is awesome! Thanks for helping me finding a therapist in the sea of therapists!” CF (Therapist - Dr Kevin Scott)

“Sarah was very helpful in providing a practical way of therapy. She was able to help me understand better how to deal with the problems in daily life and put it in perspective. Great resource and has helped me a lot!” Annonymous (Therapist - Sarah Kenny)

“Gabriella is a fantastic therapist and id highly recommend her to anyone, especially anyone new to therapy and hesitant about the process. She is easy to talk to and has armed me with tools to go ahead in life with. Thank you!” EF (Therapist - Gabriella Clarke)

“Therapy is a journey on how to change and improve on your on well being. For me my journey has been hard, at times I have wanted to give up but I stuck with it knowing that what my end goal to be. Ian help me to understand, changing the way I was doing, thinking and saying would enable me to get to my end goal. He was clear in saying that continuous working at each situation, my actions/responses will become second nature. It was hard to believe this in beginning and now I can feel confident that I can confront each new challenge with a level head, and deal with outcomes harmoniously. Thank you, Ian for working with me.

“It has completely turned things around for me. I was not in a good place at all before I started and couldn't see a way beyond my difficulties. I am now living a much more full life with hope for the future.” Fiona (Therapist - Ian Scott)

“I suffer from emetophobia and generalized anxiety and had been really struggling with day-to-day life; the pandemic had exacerbated my symptoms and chipped away at my resilence. I had been considering therapy for a while, when one day I decided I needed help and found My Online Therapist. I'm so glad I did. After submitting a request, a therapist was recommended to me very quickly, she set up an initial call with me, and we started sessions on Zoom from there.

I am so privileged to have worked with Lisa - and I would never have had the opportunity to do so if I hadn't had therapy online, because we live hundreds of miles apart. Our sessions have brought me security and stability at a hugely difficult time and challenged me to push past my comfort zone, but never without my complete agreement and Lisa's support. Thank you, My Online Therapist, for bringing her into my life, and thank you, Lisa, for changing it.” Victoria (Therapist - Lisa Dale)

“Working with Susana Lara was like working with a friend who wanted the best for me. I couldn't be happier that I chose her as my therapist and I'm delighted with the results. It was a thoroughly good experience from beginning to end.” Andrea (Therapist - Dr Susana Lara)

“It has been a huge benefit to me. Susana (my therapist) was excellent - approachable, supportive, encouraging, skilled. I would recommend Susana Lara to anyone needing therapy.” Sue (Therapist - Dr Susana Lara)

“Although I wasn't sure what I wanted or how anyone could possibly help me out of my rut, I can now see that it was incredibly necessary.

Having someone straightforward, supportive and there to both hold you accountable and hold space for your emotions, was so helpful in all the unfurling and learning that took place in the six months I work with Susana.

I'm really grateful to her and to myself for making this a priority and I now have a lot of tools which I will use in the future to check in on myself and allow myself to feel all the things.” Annonymous (Therapist - Dr Susana Lara)

“Dianne helped my husband and I bridge seemingly impossible gaps in our understanding of each other and ability to communicate despite considerable differences. Dianne took us from a place where we encountered apparently unresolvable emotional blockages on a daily basis, from a place of frustration and chronic misunderstanding to a place where we were able to appreciate each other's feelings, show love to one another increasingly unreservedly, and prevent ourselves becoming emotionally hijacked.

She was completely and skilfully professional at all times, without ever faltering in compassion or humanity. She has given us the tools we needed to succeed in our marriage and we are hugely grateful for her help. I would recommend Dianne to any couple looking to improve and heal their relationship for the long term - this is one investment absolutely worth making.” Annonymous (Therapist - Dianne McCormick)

“It was extremely helpful to be able to talk freely about the things that have affected my mood, and to be given explanations as to their origins. A very helpful experience, without any feeling of pressure” Sue (Therapist - Alexandra Barnett)

“The experience (of online therapy) has been life-changing. I have been able to overcome deep-seated disorders that had been holding me back, which I thought I would just have to live with. I am also a lot calmer.

Accessing My Therapist Online is the best decision that I have ever made. Working with Stephanie, I was able to overcome two deep-seated disorders that had hampered my life for decades. She provided a safe place to discuss and process my emotions and experiences, using ACT and EDMR. Thanks to Stephanie, I feel calmer and more positive. I also now have the tools to help me should I need them in the future.” Annonymous (Therapist - Stephanie Harris)

“Making the first step to reach out for therapy is extremely daunting. I knew my OCD was ruling me, but I didn't know if therapy would help. I thought I would live in a world of my compulsions all my life and assumed it was part of me and part of my life. However, making the decision to have therapy with Rachel has been truly life-changing - refreshing and just given me such a positive outlook on life and even on my OCD. Rachel is truly fantastic, patient and has an innate ability to make you feel safe and secure and she is most importantly, non-judgemental.

Rachel was able to open my mind up to different techniques and we took time to practice them to find out which one would work for me. Rachel is very knowledgeable and takes time to understand you, your needs and concerns and will encourage you every step of the way. I enjoyed being able to laugh with her at times and cry too yet felt very at ease talking about at times very uncomfortable things.

To anyone who may be reading this I really wouldn't hesitate to make that first step, it takes a lot to do it but don't be scared you can absolutely live your life without your condition ruling/bullying you, as Rachel taught me, you are not your thoughts. I too didn't know what to expect and didn't know if I could ever change my compulsions but you absolutely can. I will be forever grateful to Rachel and to My therapist for helping me to achieve a daily life I have craved for a long time. You're the best :)” Sarah (Therapist - Rachel Kerr-Smith)

“These therapy sessions have been incredibly helpful. Ian has helped me to build a mental toolkit that I can rely upon to help me to stabilize my worries. I was previously in such a dark place but now I am getting on with my life and enjoying it more than I ever thought I could.

I cannot thank Ian enough for his work. The service that he provides is really top quality and he has helped me find my feet again.” Fred (Therapist - Ian Scott)

“I have always been mentally strong and have never suffered with severe mental health issues but the last 18 months have been somewhat overwhelming. Stephanie's help allowed me to understand what was happening and what I was feeling. My mental health has greatly improved. Stephanie helped me understand that whilst we cannot stop the down days, there is a way to help control their impact and what is happening when they show up. This has led to me being more happy, relaxed and motivated to do the things I enjoy.” Andy (Therapist - Stephanie Harris)

“Baanu was absolutely fantastic throughout. She’s very skilled at getting to the bottom of behavioural challenges - when I thought something superficial was a challenge she helped me pick apart situations to really identify the belief or behaviour, why it exists and what I can do to be more aware and in control of my own out puts. At the same time I felt like I was in a safe space and could experiment with my thoughts to identify which tools and ways of thinking would be helpful.” Annabel (Therapist Baanu Baghabani-Irvine)

“My therapy, helped massively. I am now not only able to do everyday activities but enjoy life as well. I am so incredibly grateful for all the help and advice I have received.

It was incredibly helpful. I genuinely believed that I wouldn’t be able to do anything fun and normal again. But with the amazing therapy I received, my emetaphobia no longer stops me from doing the things I want to achieve. So grateful.” Heidi (Therapist - Lisa Johnston)

“Therapy was a massive help, Kathrine is a superb therapist and has amazing warmth and compassion as well as knowledge and analytical skills. I've improved a huge amount over a short period of time and my quality of life has improved markedly. Couldn't recommend her enough really, fantastic at what she does.” Mark (Therapist - Katherine Burkinshaw)

“We are an expat family living in Thailand and could not find a local, English speaking therapist for our 13-year-old daughter so we tried My Therapist Online. I had my reservations about online therapy and I was worried about clear communication and the session lacking the personal touch. However, I was more than pleasantly surprised. Once therapy began it really made little or no difference that we were conducting the sessions online. It also enabled my daughters’ mother to join the session from a different location over 1000km away!

Lisa Dale was an excellent therapist and made my daughter feel comfortable from the start. With the help of Lisa, my daughter made very rapid progress in addressing and challenging her issues. Lisa helped her a lot and has given her the skills and awareness to tackle future issues on her own if they arise. I would recommend Lisa highly to anyone in similar need.” Matthew (Therapist - Lisa Dale)

“Lisa has been amazing with both EMDR and CBT therapies. She has helped me overcome my issues which has left me far happier than I have been for a while.” Annonymous (Therapist - Lisa Dale)

“I think everyone should have therapy, it has changed my life and my way of thinking and it has really improved my quality of life.”

“I wish that I had therapy sooner than what I did. My mental health is manageable and the sessions have positively improved my lifestyle.” Annonymous (Therapist - Gabby Kanyo)

“Online therapy has had such a positive impact on my day-to-day life. It really helped me understand the root cause of what was happening and what I needed to do about it. My therapist (Mary) was brilliant, I couldn’t have done it without all her support.” Mark (Therapist - Mary Ion)

“Online therapy has greatly improved my wellbeing by significantly reducing my OCD obsessions and compulsions. I feel much more in control of my OCD and that has also reduced my anxiety and consequently improved my mental health.”

“I would highly recommend Lisa to anyone with OCD. What makes Lisa stand out from other therapists is her commitment to helping you make long lasting improvements after the therapy finishes. Right from the start, Lisa makes it clear that the aim of therapy is to empower you to be your own therapist. I found Lisa’s approach to CBT brilliant. The therapy is very structured and focused. Goals and a plan are agreed on together at the start, and each session has an agenda with exposure experiments to complete at home. This structured approach allowed me to see my progress which in turn motivated me further.

Lisa is very professional and she is also very empathetic. I immediately felt at ease and could be honest about my difficulties. I am so pleased that I found Lisa; I only wish I had found her 10 years earlier. I have made much more progress than I expected to, and I will not hesitate to get back in touch with her in the future should I need to.” Annonymous (Therapist - Lisa Johnston)

“Wendy was really great, tailored the sessions to exactly what I needed.” Patrick (Therapist - Wendy Turton)

“Dianne is really understanding and supportive from the beginning and she offered the advice and support that I needed in order to overcome my relationship challenges. I would highly recommend her kind and supportive support.” Sarah (Therapist - Dianne McCormick)

“The process from inquiry to the final invoice has all been very smooth. It felt that my needs were listened to and the best possible solution was suggested. My therapist was absolutely amazing; incredibly knowledgeable, empathic, and clearly used to online forms of therapy. During the session, it seemed as if we were in the same room making me feel safe and secure.” Annonymous (Therapist - Baanu Baghabani-Irvine)

“Although I knew therapy was a step in the right direction, I was apprehensive in finding the right therapist for me. Within minutes of meeting Christina, I knew I was safe and could trust her to help me. Anxiety had taken over my life in more ways than I realised, for so much of my adult life, but working with Christina has enabled me to feel that, although I will experience anxiety in the future, I will be able to work with it and overcome challenges and confront fears head on.

I no longer feel scared about my future; infact, for the first time in years, I look forward to it. The thought of social events no longer cripple me with fear. Christina's patience, but use of encouragement when required, has enabled me to push myself out of my comfort zone and gain confidence from 'small wins'. My mindset has improved greatly under Christina's guidance, and I cannot thank her enough for everything she has supported me with during our sessions.” Harriet (Therapist - Christina Theodoridou)

“One's mind is their most powerful tool or the most dangerous weapon. Working with Vicki has helped me build certain playbooks/frameworks to make my mind the most productive and progressive tool it can be. We are human and perfection can't be achieved but being progressive so that we can be good to ourselves and to our dear ones is what therapy can do.” Siddharth (Therapist - Victoria Adam)

“My experience with Stephanie and My Therapist Online provided a comfortable and safe environment to explore my issues. I always felt listened to, and the techniques and framing she offered have been a genuine help. Accessing therapy from home allowed me to be more open during the session, and to process my thoughts in private afterwards. The service My Therapist Online was always prompt and professional, too.” Ed (Therapist - Stephanie Harris)

‘As a young male the hardest step is to accept you may need counselling, after some time deliberating I made the plunge, to initially help with one or two problems. At first, I saw it as a short term thing. A couple of sessions and I would be off, but the reality is that having an opportunity to unload your weekly problems or frustrations regardless of how finicky they are has helped me no end. It evens my keel and allows me to excel in certain areas.

“Ian was very patient, personable and eager to suggest resources. It enabled me to get past a place where I was stuck and helped me to have confidence in my own decision-making process.” Sheree (Therapist - Dr Ian Scott)

On the outset most people would assume I don’t need counselling and I would probably suggest that myself right now, but it’s something that helps me achieve things, puts things in perspective and manages to balance up my work and home life balance. All sessions I have had have benefited me in some shape. I always find Bouchra supportive and honest I am a bit of clam when it comes to talking about personal stuff but Bouchra creates an environment that allows for it to be easy and stress free to communicate. At the moment I don’t see myself stopping counselling but I don’t have any problems that I need work on, it’s a great way to clear my head in a busy life I lead’. Ben (Therapist - Bouchra Yassin)

“It came at the right time for me, I wasn't feeling wonderful and with Bella's help, I got a lot of stuff that I had been holding on to off my chest. I felt better after one session.” Anonymous (Therapist - Bella Williams

“I would recommend both 'My Online Therapist' and Sarah Kenny. It was an easy process when I most needed help. I was given a few therapists to choose from with a recommendation for whom MTO thought would be most suited to me. I read the blogs and went with the recommendation. I met Sarah and we booked in a couple of initial sessions. I spent most of the first session telling Sarah what had brought me to her and the next two sessions were used in talking through tools, strategies and scenarios. It has been an enjoyable and enlightening process and I feel 100% better. We signed off today (on our 4th session) as I feel that I have got to the place where I can help myself but I know that if I need a 'top up' I can contact MTO at any time. Many thanks” Vanessa (Therapist - Sarah Kenny)

“Lee helped me to talk openly and honestly about my situation and take a look at my actions and the actions of others and how they affect daily life.. he understood me and also had a few different suggestions on how to approach different situations where I had made mistakes or dealt with them incorrectly.. I feel he has helped me to become a better/happier more content person ... I would recommend him 100%” JC (Therapist - Lee Martin)

“My sessions with Doreen were so beneficial. I didn't realise quite how bad my mental health was. She was so friendly and easy to talk to. She gave me a better understanding of why I was feeling the way I was and how I could manage my thoughts and feelings. She gave me the confidence to act on the things that were bringing negativity to my life. But most importantly she made me realise my self-worth. I have taken lots from my sessions and continue to use aspects.“ Sarah (Therapist - Doreen Mpofu)

“Having never accessed therapy before, mytherapistonline made the process easy and accessible from start to finish. Vanessa was patient, responsive and highly relatable. She created a non-judgmental, safe space and gave me the tools to gain aspects of my life and wellbeing back. The therapy journey felt clear and collaborative with each session having a meaningful impact on my thoughts, feelings and wellbeing.

I understand more about myself, and feel more resilient as a result. The emotional, functional and even physical impact has been invaluable, and I am eternally grateful for Vanessa's professionalism and expertise.

Being able to access therapy at flexible times/locations also contributed to my positive experience with therapy and my first experience accessing support. To anyone considering therapy, I would highly recommend the service and the therapist, Vanessa.” Tia (Therapist - Vanessa Tilbury)

“Finding Rachel online was made extremely easy by My Therapist Online. I was matched to several options and was able to choose the best therapist for me. The zoom meetings were easy to set up and the professionalism and care that Rachel offered was excellent. Being in my own environment made the sessions comfortable and it was useful to be able to access the sessions remotely.” Clemmie (Therapist - Rachel Kerr-Smith)

“Discussing with Stephanie helped me a lot to understand some of the problems I experienced and to find solutions to these problems. I understand better how my core believes affect my vision of the world and my behaviour. Stephanie also taught me techniques preventing me from focusing too much on myself, my thoughts, etc -- the things that were making me unhappy and that were hurting my wellbeing” Kirill (Therapist - Stephanie Harris)

“Using My Therapist Online took away all the anxiety of choosing a therapist. My recommendations were excellent and well-considered. Thanks!” Chris

“In a world where we are busy with work and now adhering to Covid restrictions, the ability to have access to skilled therapists online is very convenient. Having previously used a therapist face to face, I can say that there was no reduction in the level of two-way communication and interaction from a virtual session. Highly recommended.” Anthony (Therapist - Stephanie Harris)

“My experience couldn’t have been more positive! Right from the first contact With My Therapy Online everything was handled so sensitively and with such kindness. Putting your trust in someone feels daunting but Lucy made me feel at ease straight away. Lucy understood what was going on in my head and helped me to see what was happening too, which was such an enormous relief.

Education is playing a huge part in my recovery/OCD management and I’m so grateful that Lucy has been able to provide me with so much information on the subject. I hadn’t expected/dared to imagine that I would be able to make so much progress in such a short so a of time. The ease of accessing such a kind and effective therapist from your home environment is invaluable - couldn’t recommend it more highly. Thank you!” Olivia (Therapist - Lucy Harvey)

“Baanu really did help me find answers I was looking, she listened to everything I had to say and along the way gave me guidance and tips to make me realise that all these problems I thought I had, weren’t so much problems, but stuff I was allowing myself to think were problems.” Joe (Therapist - Baanu Banhbani-Irvine)

I was suffering from terrible anxiety and in a really bad way, I'd tried another online counselling service which I was unhappy with, so I was really pleased to come across this one. The counsellor I was recommended I had an initial chat with so I wouldn't be wasting time if they weren't right, and was pleased to find I knew straight away Suzy was the right person for me.

The sessions really helped me and we ended up covering all manner of things. Suzy helped me to look at things in another way, and would also send me to follow links to other info at the end of the session which was helpful. It was a pleasure talking to her each week and so worth investing in myself. I would recommend her, and this service, to anybody.” Jenny (Therapist -Suzy King)

“Wonderful, so convenient, worked to my timetable. Has taught me skills to be my own therapist not to rely on someone else.” Mary (Therapist - Vanessa Tilbury)

“Josh is a very open, trustful and humorous person. I felt very safe with him and he gave me some great point of views I haven’t considered before. He also understood my problems very well and asked thought-provoking questions around them. I would recommend Josh as a therapist to my friends and family as he has helped me a lot!

Thank you for your support, Josh! I am happy to have chosen you as my therapist, you are doing a great job.” Linda (Therapist Josh Green)

“Baanu is an excellent therapist. I started therapy with her after my breakup. She made me feel comfortable from the first session onwards. I could easily open up to her. I had 6 sessions with her and each session made me feel better. Her therapy methods are very effective. At the end of 6 sessions, I was feeling more confident and felt I was over the breakup. I would highly recommend Baanu. She is the best.” Annonymous (Therapist - Baanu Banhbani-Irvine)

“I found having Rachel for therapy hugely beneficial, I'd had therapy before but Rachel helped with other channels that I had not gone into before to help with my anxiety.” David (Therapist - Rachel Kerr-Smith)

“It has been incredibly transformative to my mental health and wellbeing. I have processed events in a safe and supportive environment and worked alongside my therapist to develop solid coping tools for the future. Having the space to express my worries and anxieties, and to be heard without judgement has been incredibly healing for me. Being able to fully address the root causes of my anxieties and low mood, and beginning to take steps to re-wire the thought patterns that were maintaining these mental states, has changed my whole perspective. I feel thoroughly empowered and uplifted, and equipped with the tools and knowledge to better maintain my mental health going forwards.” Iona (Therapist - Dr Alexandra Barnett)

“Rachel is patient, kind and supportive. Helped to grasp points of difficulty speaking which leads to the deeper roots of the issue which I couldn’t have unravelled myself. Really recommend it if you want to get happy again. Just know the most important person is you.” Anonymous (Therapist - Rachel Kerr-Smith)

“The therapy I received has ultimately changed my life! I’m a happier, more confident person now than I probably ever have been. I would highly recommend it, to anyone who has any mental health issues they wish to address and resolve!” Paul (Therapist - Baanu Baghabani-Irvine)

“Therapy has changed my life considerably. I have a totally different outlook on life now. I was totally stuck in a rut of negativity and ignoring my feelings. I can now manage my reactions and emotions almost without thinking and that is a testament to Christina.”

“Before I started therapy the thought of talking to anyone, let alone a random person, about my feelings was the last thing I ever wanted to do. I had my initial consultation with Christina and instantly was put at ease by her calm, warm and caring manner. Therapy wasn't easy and I had to go through some pain but just 6 months later and my mental health is a millions times better. I cannot thank Christina enough.” Max (Therapist - Dr Christina Theodoridou)

“The therapy sessions were great! Baanu was very astute and was great at recalling conversations and names from previous sessions. Baanu was great at guiding me and helping me release emotions whilst maintain that safe non judgemental space.” Dylan (Therapist - Baanu Baghabani-Irvine)

“I reached out to Clare after struggling with extremely debilitating anxiety over the Covid-19 situation. I had lost a significant amount of weight and was struggling to complete my degree. Having had CBT before, with a different therapist and for a different issue, I knew a bit about what to expect, but was still so impressed by Clare's approach. My first impressions of her were of someone highly empathetic, engaged & knowledgeable /experienced.

She quickly identified that the anxiety I was experiencing related to contamination, and developed a treatment plan. Clare has handled the transition to giving therapy remotely expertly. She is very skilled at helping you confront how your own thoughts and behaviours are fuelling your anxiety, even when you are reluctant to do so, and she does with this compassion and empathy. With her guidance I learned to challenge my anxiety about contamination, and gain back control of my weight loss, complete my degree and am able to function again.” Annonymous (Therapist - Clare Lupton)

“I couldn't be happier about doing this therapy! I was, for once, taken seriously with my symptoms and offered a fast recovery for ailments that plagued me for years. My therapist was really nice and remote payment felt safe and convenient.”

“I live in a country (France) where it is very hard to find a therapist who is not a part of the psycho-dynamic school, which does not provide efficient treatment for what I was seeking treatment for: OCD with no visible compulsion. I was struggling with this illness, even having weekly sessions for years prior to trying your service, and was even told by professionals that the kind of treatment I was seeking didn't exist. I'm glad I persevered because Debby was able to provide me with efficient and relatively quick recovery, as well as treatment for my self esteem issues. I'm infinitely much better than I was two years ago and very confident in my capacity to maintain such progress.” Marion (Therapist - Debby Cranston)

“Especially with everything happening this year, I was lucky to be able to have online access to therapy, and the therapy in general has helped me with deal with the situation as well as other general things I was struggling with.”

“My CBT sessions helped me recognise the mental barriers I'd create for myself and liberate myself from them. Being online, the therapy was easily accessible and my therapist Doreen was always really understanding.” Cassey (Therapist Doreen Mpofu)

“Sarah is a warm and authentic person which makes establishing a connection effortless. Sarah’s expertise, patience and dedication has had an indelible impact on my mental wellbeing.” Anonymous

“I would like to express a strong endorsement of Alexandra as a therapist. She offers a very calm and relaxed environment to talk through problems and made me feel extremely supported in every one of our sessions. I can't thank her enough for the positive reinforcement and confidence she has helped to instil over the past six months.” Sally

“Alex was wonderful, I was very comfortable talking through the issues I had. She showed a lot of understanding and patience but very quickly was able to challenge me in regards to the way I have been thinking about my trauma over the years. And really helped me break out of that cycle I’ve been in. Her techniques were very effective in-spite of my own thoughts that this would not work. She also showed a lot of grace in understanding any cultural undertones to my issues.

I left feeling a lot better, and better equipped to keep on working on myself so I don’t fall back into those bad habits. So overall a positive experience and I wish I had sought help sooner.” Anonymous (Therapist - Dr Alexandra Barnett).

“I’m so glad I took the plunge and booked these sessions with Paul. I believe I was suffering from PTSD after being on a ventilator for COVID19. I wasn’t sleeping and was getting frightening flashbacks and unpleasant memories which kept me taut and anxious. I’m now able to go back over my memories, if I choose to, without feeling upset.” Julia

“Paul was wonderful and having said we’d need 6-12 sessions we only needed 6.

I found him professional but approachable, compassionate but not too gushing with, “You poor thing!”, which I would have hated!

His brand of CBT and brain based therapies didn’t seem like hard work, in fact after the first session when I was slightly apprehensive not knowing what to expect, I actually came to enjoy the sessions.

I would certainly recommend Paul without hesitation and feel sure that if you get other people post-Covid he’d sort them out with a similar efficient yet kindly manner.” Julia (Julia had therapy with Paul Gebka-Scuffins)

“I have hugely benefited from my weekly hour-long video call with my personally matched psychologist.

This was the first time I have had any therapy, I could not previously find the time. Having therapy from home is ideal for busy people, and it couldn’t have been easier to set up. My Therapist Online took the stress out of finding the right therapist for my needs. I simply described the problems I was struggling with and they matched me with a super therapist. Each week I saw the same therapist, on my laptop, and from the comfort of my own home.

My therapy has helped me to understand myself so much more. To look at my thoughts and my feelings with a different lens, a lens that has meant that I can start to live the happiest version of it. “ Tessa

“The whole experience was easy and convenient. I was very sceptical going into the sessions having had a poor experience with face to face therapy before. Sarah is a great therapist and I would recommend her to anyone as I would My Therapist Online - they’re amazing.” Sam

“My Therapist Online has been an invaluable resource. It's difficult to see outside of your own head sometimes to understand exactly what you need, but Lisa uses her expert knowledge in pairing you with the right therapist. Paul Gebka-Scuffins was a fantastic, caring and knowledgeable therapist who helped me process and understand my own difficulties. The price of these services always seem daunting, but better mental health is worth every penny.” Ben

“Paul was great, I had a few reservations about going ahead with therapy! Mostly, feeling like I was “mad”.

After 5 minutes speaking to Paul, I felt relaxed and ready to talk about my issues! He was capable, patient and easy to talk to, and made the sessions feel like more of a chat down the pub than a cold and clinical “therapy” session! I noticed an immediate change in my mood (for the better) after our first full session and the techniques he used were really powerful! Couldn’t recommend Paul more highly! Thanks “ Joe

“I went into therapy with Hannah very closed, and quite cynical. However after doing 9 months with Hannah my life has improved drastically, the way I relate to myself is hugely more positive and I feel more centered. It’s the best decision I ever made, would highly recommend.” Charlotte

“I started to see results almost immediately in terms of my level of internal chatter and how I interacted with people on a daily basis.“ Bobby

“Access to specialists in certain aspects of mental health is an invaluable resource. They are not available in all parts of the country, or through our amazing NHS, and so making this resource easily accessible is fantastic.” Peter

“I feel that a lot of the trauma I experienced as a child has been processed and has been firmly left in the past, so that enjoy the present and the forthcoming future knowing that I won't have any past traumas interfering with the relationships I currently have with people as well as any future relationships I develop. “ Anonymous (trauma focused therapy with Paul Gabka-Scuffins)

“I have experienced great benefit from accessing online therapy and have had and continue to have marked reduction in symptoms” Sam

“It’s comforting to know that this online therapy exists. It seems to be harder and harder seeing people face-to-face either due to long waiting lists or no available time slots, privately. I spoke to someone within days of first getting in touch when my anxiety was through the roof. I also appreciate the flexibility of evening appointments as someone who works full-time.” Emma

“Online Therapy has definitely helped me with my journey during this part of my life. My confidence and compassion is starting with me so I’m just going with that right now, and enjoying the journey.” Anonymous

“With the flexibility and convenience of online therapy, I was able to book regular appointments to fit around my busy work/study schedule and occasional travel. My irritability went away and my mood lifted, with noticeable positive results at my job.” Anonymous

“A really fantastic service, great for busy people who need a little help to manage things. My sessions really helped me see things in a more positive, useful way and gave me peace at a difficult time.” Catherine

“Doing therapy online meant I didn't need to stress about having to leave work early/work different hours to fit in a therapy session each week - I was able to do it in the morning before I started work. When I had therapy in the past, I used to feel very guilty when I was taking time off to go to sessions, so this helped a lot not having this guilt on top of my anxiety!” Dan

“I live in wales and access to getting good quality CBT/EPT for OCD is very limited. Whilst searching online I came across ‘My therapist online’ and emailed to see if they could help me. They carefully looked at all their therapists experiences to allow me to work with a therapist who was best suited to the help I needed”. Leanne

“Online therapy has worked brilliantly for me as it provided the flexibility I needed whilst working abroad and not able to meet during office hours. I couldn't be happier with the overall experience and only wish I had found my way to this therapy years ago.” Anonymous

"Just a few sessions of online CBT have been life changing for me and my family" Holly (Low Mood - 5 sessions)

“Sarah really helped with my fear of presentations and public speaking. I was asked to speak at a conference and was absolutely dreading it. The CBT sessions helped me deal with the anxiety leading up to the presentation and I believe, helped to keep me calm on the day. It also changed my outlook about future presentations. I would definitely recommend this type of therapy. As a busy, working mum, I found the online sessions great and I was able to fit the therapy in at convenient times” Anne had online therapy with Sarah Kenny.

“My therapist online is a brilliant service. Thank you. It worked so well for me as I could see my CBT therapist outside of my work and family life. I was also able to see a specialist CBT therapist, someone I just would not have been able to access locally where I live” Poppy

“It’s so convenient and easy to have sessions whenever is best for you and the therapist, plus there are no complications such as traffic that would mean cancelling an appointment.” Kate

“The time spent with Hannah has been hugely beneficial. The sessions have enabled me to harness a kinder and less critical inner voice. I have a deep appreciation for things now, and a deep understanding of the importance of the drive, soothing and threat systems. I am able to identify more easily when I am threat activated and I can bring myself back into the soothing system much more easily. Without the sessions with Hannah I don't feel I could have made such progress. I was in a very very dark and lonely place and needed someone wise and kind to help contain and steer me gently in the right direction. Hannah is without doubt one of the most compassionate practitioners I have ever met. Her ability to get to the heart of things, as well as to challenge in a way that is non confrontational is amazing. I enjoyed being able to bounce ideas back and forth with Hannah, and I enjoyed how easy it was to speak with her and pour out the things that had been troubling me. I never felt judged, I never felt foolish or undermined by Hannah. I felt validated and acknowledged. Thank you Hannah. You are an amazing practitioner and your clients including myself are extremely lucky to have met you and to have benefited from your knowledge and expertise.” Clara had therapy with Hannah Taylor

Jessica (BDD - 18 sessions)

I had a very positive experience of online therapy. I always felt there was an overall plan and that we were working towards a goal together which is something that has been missing with previous therapists where I felt almost responsible for directing therapy or that I was just coasting along. I feel I connected with my therapist very well and again, compared to other therapists, I felt she was able to challenge me and appreciate where I was coming from. Each session seemed to achieve a lot although she was very flexible and I quickly became aware that I could raise anything that had come up that week or something that had been affecting me and was happy to work on that rather than what might have been planned. We did some work on updating an aversive memory and looking back I think that we did this at a pivotal time when I had built up a level of understanding, knowledge and insight that allowed me to really get the most out of re-scripting the memory. Therapy was delivered in a way that felt relaxed but again always had direction. My therapist used visual aids which I found really useful and she would often email me with a summary of a session - I referred back to these emails countless times when I was struggling. I found my therapist to be very professional and knowledgeable but also kind and empathic. 

Did you have any reservations about using online therapy? How quickly were these overcome?

I had slight reservations about online therapy but soon overcame these. I was a little bit nervous before the first call but my therapist put me at ease straight away and I felt that by the end of the first session I was not at all worried by the format. I sometimes struggled with looking at myself on screen but mostly I found that being in my own setting and the distance between my therapist and I actually allowed me to relax, say more and bare all.

What aspects of online therapy appealed to you or helped you choose this over traditional office based therapy? 

There was no access to specialised therapy for body dismorphic disorder (BDD) in Scotland or at least nearby and I felt I needed someone experienced in this area so my options were therefore limited. Online therapy enabled me to access a specialist from the comfort of my home. I have attended therapists before and did find sometimes it was a struggle to go to the office so I suppose in retrospect online therapy from home appealed because it took the pressure off.

Would you recommend online therapy to a friend? Please explain your answer.

I would certainly recommend online therapy to a friend. As someone who has been in therapy before I think that I found it easy to adapt but others may take a little longer. I would certainly recommend it in terms of accessibility and I don't think I cancelled one session with my therapist during our months of therapy whereas in the past I have felt that depression or anxiety have been factors in me not making the journey to a therapist's office. In the comfort of my own home I felt therapy was more accessible. I didn't feel at all intimidated whereas at office-based therapy I have often felt under the microscope.

Was there anything that you felt stopped you getting therapy in the past?

I have tried a few therapists in the past but my online therapist Lisa is the first who I felt was experienced with the issues I was encountering and was also an intellectual match. I would say in my case it was access to someone with specialist knowledge in BDD that was the main aspect that was difficult for me. I became frustrated with the therapy I was getting that seemed to skirt around what I had identified as what I felt was a huge issue that was impacting my life. I even had one therapist who agreed with me that I was perhaps suffering with BDD but then didn't seem to know how to help me with it at all.

What helped you to seek therapy this time?

Having a diagnosis of BDD from Professor David Veale and being signposted to someone that was accessible to me and who had specialist knowledge was mainly what encouraged me to give it another go.

How has accessing online therapy impacted your life? What are you able to do now they you were not able to do before?

My life has improved greatly since having accessed therapy with Lisa online. Even just having a diagnosis and a deeper understanding of how my behaviours were reinforcing my beliefs was huge for me but to be able to actually break these negative cycles with my therapist's help has allowed me to engage more with the world around me. I am able to notice or call out negative thought patterns and this has resulted in a huge shift in my beliefs about how I look and I am also able to see myself as more than just my appearance. I have mechanisms in place to help me enjoy big events such as weddings or parties where before these would cause me months of anxiety and I would suffer for weeks after. I am able to enjoy my love of fashion more - prior to therapy I wanted to wear clothes that didn't make me stand out and would often throw out expensive clothes I had bought after one wear that I felt I looked ridiculous in. I have been able to actively engage with online dating. I am now able to frequently walk down the street with my face exposed to the world and not concealed by a scarf. I no longer spend long periods looking in the mirror or take videos of myself and reflect on them endlessly. I do have relapses and I do not always feel great about how I look but I do feel that I have tools to bring this back within normal parameters. I know that members of my family have noticed that I seem more open and my negative behaviours and defences have reduced massively and I feel that this projects back on me.

Gary (OCD - 10 sessions)

Please give some feedback about your experience of therapy?

Fantastic! My therapist's methods were the most effective and professional I have experienced. She clearly is focused on results and the patient (as opposed to maximising revenue by slow rolling treatment). Over the course of ten sessions she quickly gauged my comfort levels, applied an appropriate amount of pressure to push me to complete CBT tasks and challenge OCD, and taught me the basics of the theory and practice so I am empowered to be my own therapist.

She occasionally provided therapy for longer than the scheduled hour if we were in deep discussion. This is very generous and further highlights her priority is the patient’s success.

What aspects of online therapy appealed to you or helped you choose this over traditional office based therapy? 

Convenient! Can do from home at night to fit around busy schedules.

Would you recommend online therapy to a friend? 

Definitely. I can see why some people might have a reluctance to pursue online therapy over traditional therapy, but I found it better than in-person therapy I’ve had. The quality comes from the therapist, not the delivery method (e.g. Skype vs in-person).

I also think it’s maybe easier to focus on the message in therapy via online sessions in the comfort of one’s own home. In person, on someone else’s office, additional social dynamics can come into play, even subconsciously, that can distract and potentially detract from the therapy itself.

Was there anything that you felt stopped you getting therapy in the past?

It was hard to make it work around schedule and hard to find and access the ‘right’ therapist. Also was probably in denial that I needed help.

What helped you to seek therapy this time?

My therapist came recommended from Professor Veale and was available for appointment times I could make, in my location (online was perfect for my circumstances).

How has accessing online therapy impacted your life? What are you able to do now they you were not able to do before?

Significant impact. The therapy enabled me to change unhelpful behaviours that had persisted for years, greatly reducing my levels of OCD. The changes made have held fairly strong since therapy ended. Crucially, I now have a much greater understanding of my own thought processes and beliefs and how to better navigate and manage them. Home life is much improved, I’m less tired, and things generally feel a bit easier.

Advice to others who might be considering seeking online therapy 

Do it. The therapist I saw is a true professional committed to patients’ success and will help you help yourself. Under her tutelage I made significant gains against years of entrenched behaviour within 10 sessions. 

Holly (Low mood - 5 sessions)

I was quite surprised that CBT wasn’t a bit like I thought it would be. Like the pragmatic approach, that not focusing on the past but looking to future. 

I had massive reservations, I'd never had any therapy before. I felt maybe there was a stigma about it. After a few sessions I realised it was going to be quite useful, it took a lot the emotion out of it and made me realise I have the power to change things rather than thinking that the way I am is set in stone. 

I liked the convenience of being able to do the therapy in the evening around the baby, and from my own home so no need to organise a babysitter. 

I was dubious that online therapy would give you the one to one personal experience. But it works. Its good for busy people with out the flexibility to spend time coming into an office. You can have your session in the comfort of your own home. Minimal stress or fuss to lead you on a path to a better you. 

I always thought it was for people with ‘real' problems and that my issues weren’t that important or relevant and that I should struggle through because I wasn’t depressed or ill or anything. CBT gives you useful life skills to help make your life work the way you want it to. And I hadn’t realised that. I thought to go to therapy was to admit weakness rather than realising it shows strength to communicate. 

I have learnt to be less hard on myself and to give myself a break, no one is perfect. To look at the world in a different light, and to move towards making better choices in how I behave towards my friends and family. 

Thank you. Just a few sessions have been truly life changing for me and my family. 

Beth (Phobia and Panic - 8 sessions)

I felt relaxed and comfortable as I was in my home surroundings and what was most convenient for me was fitting in the sessions around work. It proved to be a very convenient way of accessing a therapist which was specialised my my phobia and anxiety disorder without the need for travel. 

Talking with Lisa to me was like speaking to a friend or confidante. Lisa made me feel very relaxed and made the sessions informal yet offered very informative constructive advise on phobias and exposure therapy. What I specifically liked about Lisa's therapy is that it was proactive and homework was given - you got to test things out. It was almost like setting up little experiments and you could actually test out situations and exposure work in comfortable surroundings.  I really liked the fact that it was not just talking about the past and reflecting - it was more based on changing behaviours in the present and looking at how this changes the way we think and feel going forward. 

It is very convenient and this worked for me in many ways - with both work and my social life. I would have had to visit London to get the therapy I needed for my specific phobia and Lisa helped me access the much needed specialised treatment without the cost of travel or the inconvenience of having time off from work.

Q & A with James (OCD - 16 Sessions)

Did you have any reservations about using online therapy? How quickly were these overcome?

Skype sessions actually took quite a lot of pressure off me because I didn't have to worry about getting to and from the location and being in an unfamiliar environment which in the beginning would have been a major issue for me. I felt comfortable and at ease at home and could relax. It was a bit weird at first talking to someone you had never met in person, but i knew after the first session I already felt a small release in the grip of my anxiety and so this was overcome very quickly. 

Thinking back to before your first session, is there anything you would have liked to have known about online therapy therapy before you started?
I don't think so. I'd been through regular face to face therapy before so knew how the process worked. There really wasn't much difference to be honest, in fact, I felt more comfortable over Skype and it was much easier to fit in to my routine. 

Do you have any specific comments / feedback about me as your therapist? About my style, session content and delivery of online therapy?

I immediately trusted Lisa because I immediately felt better. I never felt like I was being pushed to take steps I really wasn't ready to take, instead I felt positively challenged to prove to myself I was capable of managing in situations I was worried about. 

Do you have any specific comments / feedback about the Skype set-up, invoicing, ease of accessibility, convenience etc.

This couldn't have been easier really.

Would you recommend online therapy to a friend?
Yes, definitely. It's difficult when you have a full-time job to fit therapy in and if you suffer from an anxiety disorder then therapy is essential. Skype based, online therapy is brilliant as you can do it from the safety and comfort of your own home, fit it into your schedule and relax. Something I realised was being anxious all the time is absolutely exhausting. It would have been hard for me to get through an entire day of work and then travel again to get to therapy and then home again. This made my life and my recovery as easy as possible and I actually enjoyed it more than face to face sessions.

Feedback from Peter's Parents

(OCD - 12 Sessions)

It hit us like a truck, we did not see it coming, we are informed parents and always hoped that we would recognise any mental health problems or issues with substance abuse etc. P has always talked to us and did on this occasion - but the words he said made no sense at all - what on earth was happening? 

His condition felt very unstable and unsafe at that time. The person we knew was barely visible and appeared to be constantly diminishing. We could not rationalise with him about his thoughts and each time it felt as though we may be making some small headway we realised it had been a false hope? The easiest thing would have been to leave him in bed each morning, keep him at our sides and protect him until we got the help required. He was not functioning normally at all and needed prompting and guidance for the most basic of daily activities of living and self-care?

We did not know if we should be forging ahead like parent steam-rollers forever pushing, coaxing, pulling, encouraging, were we adding to the problems? ...but frankly the alternative did not seem to offer hope either so always 'doing something' seemed preferable to 'doing nothing' and watching the decimation of character unfold, unchallenged?

A combination of anti-depressant medication, and reading and taking tips as we read and reread through Dr Veale's book whilst waiting for a consultation moved P from the edge of the precipice by the time he spoke to Prof. He had become much more rational and less afraid by the time of his assessment - things felt safer and steadier. If his school had not been so supportive we would not have been as well-placed as we were either... so yet again we were fortunate. 

We were in no doubt however that we had secured only very temporary 'holding' measures, and could see and indeed experienced, the huge tendency for the OCD to overwhelm. I cannot begin to imagine how individuals who do not not have the support and resources manage this illness, which impacts so heavily on every aspect of life for them and their families.

To have the recommendation from Prof Veale for CBT with you was like receiving a golden key. We knew and know that in effect you provide the recipe but P has to follow it carefully.

He has his ingredients and has had to learn how to best utilise them. 

All that we read had pointed us to seeing his time with someone with your skill base as being crucial if he was to secure any chance of recovery. We believed that time was of the essence, the longer the OCD controlled behaviour, the harder it was going to be to resist and change. From his first session with you it was apparent to us all that finally P may have a chance of tackling this illness head-on, he returned from it with a quiet confidence and a little self-belief and was subtly more upbeat about everything.

The effect on the household as everyone begins to exhale is positive and so it is like a synergy - your hour impacts so massively - as we were able to pull-back our support gradually (because you provided P with the skills) this in turn enhanced his self-belief and his ability to achieve once again and so on. Each week another step up and reinforcement of what had gone before and importantly tactics to help deal with the inevitable blips. Your feedback from sessions also helped us to better understand where we could best support or indeed pull back our input and were invaluable - thank you. 

There needs to be many more ‘Lisa people’ out there.

Jess's Experience of Online Therapy for Emetophobia 

To be perfectly honest I was the first one to be skeptical about online therapies after going through more than a decade of traditional face to face therapies. However after realising that my condition needed the attention of a specialised professional I decided to try it. Travelling was not an option for me at the time so the online approach was the only viable alternative. 

I was practically sure it wouldn't have worked but I couldn't have been more wrong. I was afraid the lack of the physical presence would have made the therapy somehow cold and distant making it impossible to relax, open up and therefore inevitably being an unsuccessful therapy. I quickly understood the warmth and the comfort of the therapy depends on the therapists and the feeling you have with them. I do believe not all therapists work for everybody. There must be a certain affinity, a good match. I was lucky enough that I clicked instantly with my therapist even tough she was across the continent. She made me feel comfortable, she was engaged at all times, she always faced the camera which quickly made me forget there was a camera in the first place.

My therapist has not only been incredibly present and involved during the sessions but has always followed up with summaries and helpful tips to get me through the tasks which were set during the sessions.

I went from being the biggest skeptic to the biggest believer that online therapy is the most incredible gift for people who cannot find suitable help in their own vicinity. 

Doing online therapy allows you to access it from the comfort of your own home, which to many Emetophobes could be an incredible help considering they might be very uncomfortable going out or travelling long distances.  Knowing that there is help available, as easy as a click away, is of incredible value and if you struggle with this difficult life companion and you haven't yet reached out for help I would strongly advise you to get some help from trained professionals as this is a very specific condition and therefore it requires a specific approach and treatment.

Leanne’s received specialist CBT treatment for OCD through My Therapist Online and reclaimed her life again.

I live in wales and access to getting good quality CBT/EPT for OCD is very limited.

Whilst searching online I came across ‘My therapist online’ and emailed to see if they could help me. They carefully looked at all their therapists experiences to allow me to work with a therapist who was best suited to the help I needed.

They recommended Grainne and I thank god everyday that they did! 

Previously I have had CBT for my OCD but have never felt I have recovered to a point where it doesn’t interfere with my daily life. Taking to Grainne during our first session made me realise I had never really worked with a specialist before. Grainne was exceptionally experienced and knew exactly what my difficulties were which put my mind at rest straight away. She also gave me a new founded determination to further my recovery.

Sessions with Grainne are relaxed but very focussed.

We always have an agenda and the sessions as always focussed on ‘ chipping away’ at OCD and the anxiety based around it.

I can’t even express the progress I have made since working with Grainne. I am more confident in my abilities to manage my OCD, educated in my condition and finally have my quality and enjoyment of life back. OCD no longer rules my life thanks to Grainne!! 

I feel very comfortable during our Skype session ( I often wear my pyjamas as I have evening appointments) and feel each session is focussed and moves me along in my recovery. I have developed a self- help therapy file and the homework that I undertake always focussed me very closely on building a resilience to the ‘OCD bully’.

This time last year I thought I was stuck and my recovery stage was as good as it could get. I thought I was going to have to deal with this quality of life ( restricted by OCD) forever. Now I am focussed in work ( have a stressful and demanding job), enjoying married life and travelling to many parts of the world.

Grainne has taught me many techniques and showed me, how  exposing yourself to fears reduces anxiety and has made me realise the world is not such a scary place.

I am now excited about life, my future and the things I have to look forward to.

I know I will always have OCD and that I will need to manage it, I am also sure I will have times in life when my OCD rears it’s ugly head again. But with Grainne help and my new confidence in dealing with OCD I feel I can deal with it and cope with any setbacks. 

Thanks Grainne you have shown me that life with OCD can be wonderful, rewarding and enjoyable- couldn’t have got to this place without you.
