I came to Dr Mistry with extremely bad anxiety and felt like I was completely losing control and all quality of life. Dr Mistry suggested going on diazepam which I was initially worried to do as I was so worried about becoming addicted. However, Dr Mistry eased my fears and it was the best decision I could have made. The diazepam brought down my anxiety levels extremely well and out of the terrified state I was in and made me feel normal again. Once it was time to start coming off the diazepam Dr Mistry suggested the amounts to decrease by but left it to me to decide; which reduced my anxiety about coming off it as I felt like I was in control. I came off it slowly but fairly steadily, with plateaus if I needed it. I am now completely off diazepam and I have experienced absolutely no withdrawal effects and no feelings of addiction at all. I am so grateful to Dr Mistry for helping me realise the diazepam was there to help me and I was at no risk of addiction, and for ultimately giving me my life back.

Sarah-Jane is more than a therapist, she's your lifeline when life gets rough. Through the mess of a challenging divorce and my son's health struggles, she wasn't just there for me—she was my rock. Without her, I don't know if I could've made it through, let alone come out the other side stronger and wiser. Sarah-Jane's didn't just hear my words; she understood the emotions behind them, creating a safe space where I could unload my fears and hopes without judgment. She didn't just nod along; she truly invested herself in my well-being. Her advice wasn't the typical textbook stuff—it was tailored to me, nudging me toward insights I never would've found on my own. But most of all, Sarah-Jane believed in me when I didn't believe in myself. In those dark moments, she reminded me of my strength and resilience, guiding me through the storm with unwavering support. Thanks to her, I'm not the same person who walked into her office. I'm stronger, more self-aware, and grateful for the journey.

Dr Kathryn has helped me tremendously with some very difficult subject matters, she is very good at listening and it does not feels like she judges you for whatever you say.

Ryan has been excellent in my sessions so far. He has a very calm demeanour and has provided so many useful options for the issues I want to tackle. I would highly recommend!

I've been seeing Bhavna for remote therapy sessions focused on managing my anxiety and improving my relationships, and I cannot praise her enough for the exceptional support and guidance she has provided. Bhavna goes above and beyond the traditional role of a psychologist by not only offering a listening ear but also teaching me valuable psychological theories. These insights empower me to manage my challenges more effectively on my own. What sets Bhavna apart is her commitment to providing personalised care. She regularly sends me informative materials to study outside our sessions, ensuring that I continue to make progress even when we're not directly in contact. Moreover, Bhavna's approach to session timing is incredibly accommodating. She focuses on the importance of our discussions rather than the clock, often extending our sessions to ensure we cover everything thoroughly. Bhavna's genuine concern for my wellbeing is clear and she tailors her approach to suit my individual needs. She encourages me to reach out to her between sessions if I have questions or need guidance, creating a supportive environment that extends beyond our scheduled meetings. Additionally, she's happy for me to reach our to her with a list of topics I'd like to discuss in an upcoming session, making our sessions more productive and tailored to my needs. Bhavna's professional expertise, coupled with her compassionate and adaptive approach, has made a significant difference in my life. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a psychologist who truly cares about their clients' progress and wellbeing.

Maria was always very supportive and easy to talk to. Her explanations of feelings and emotions were easy to understand, and the strategies were helpful. I never felt that what I gad to say was invalid or wrong and she was able to help Ms understand it was OK to feel like this.

Dr Bernat first saw me in 2020 after a 6 year history of mental health issues and no help from NHS services. Instantly, I felt a sense of care and understanding from her, and everything was explained to me thoroughly. She has supported me through 4 inpatient admissions, and has helped me begin my journey to recovery.

The perfect balance of care, engagement and challenge. I have found my time with Chris utterly invaluable

I met with Dr Passetti via Zoom due to the current virus crisis. I found Dr Passetti to be a charming relaxing and friendly person. I had no problems speaking to him about my problems thanks to his manner.I would be happy to give my full recommendation.

My journey with Venetia spans over 8 years, and I have nothing but good words for how she conducted herself both professionally and on the human level throughout this time. I came to her with a sense of general uneasiness in life that started to become debilitating, and thanks to her effort and dedication I have now developed the tools to understand myself and how I operate in the world to a previously inconceivable degree. She is an exceptional listener and can handle anything you throw at her, as well as being a master at picking up little threads and patterns entangled in the unconscious mind that would have taken decades to even notice, let alone act upon. I could write a long essay on all the benefits and life lessons I enjoyed throughout my experience with her but I will keep this brief to not get people to suspect I was paid to write a review! I will end with this - if you are looking for a loving, dedicated, and extremely professional psychologist to tackle life's struggles, I would highly recommend you give Venetia a try.
