Private anxiety therapy in Leeds city centre

Average client rating 9.7 out of 10 Client feedback January 2020 - December 2022

Most of our clients come to us at a moment of crisis in their lives. The coping strategies they have used for years often break down when something too big to manage alone comes along. And so they come to us for therapy. But the good news is that most of them look back on the crisis that brought them to us as a blessing. Once they have had support from a professional therapist they understand their anxiety and develop the resilience to cope with whatever life throws at them.

"I started therapy because I was having panic attacks. I was terrified that I was going to have to give up work if they got worse. Chris helped me to understand them and reduce them to almost none. But more importantly he helped me not be frightened of them. I didn’t realise how many places I’d been avoiding because of them. Now me and my boyfriend can go out to restaurants for meals without me having to sit by the door in case I feel one coming on. Thank you." Angela

"I’d been promoted at work and suddenly I couldn’t face going through the doors. I’d worked there for years, minding my own business. But now I was responsible for other people and I just started dreading going to bed because I’d have to get up the next day and go to work. Chris helped me understand how anxiety had persuaded me to buy into some really limiting thoughts about myself and what I was capable of. It made me feel like a fraud for accepting the promotion. Now I recognise the feelings of inadequacy as just being my anxiety and I don’t believe what they’re telling me. I’m thriving at work and it’s had a knock-on effect in my family life and my relationships with friends too. Thank you."" Michael
