Individual Therapy & Clinical Consultations | Smart Mind Health
One-to-one clinical consultations with a Chartered Health Psychologist
You Don't Have to Figure This Out Alone.
Whether you're navigating something acute or carrying something you've managed alone for a long time, these sessions offer a safe, confidential space to talk, and to start understanding what's really going on.
Online or by telephone, at a pace that works for you.
Therapy Consultations Built Around You
The goal is to help you understand the root causes of what you're experiencing, not just cope with the surface.
Each 50-minute session is designed to go beyond symptom management.
Sessions can help you:
- Explore and make sense of your mental health struggles
- Develop practical strategies for managing symptoms day to day
- Work through the deeper patterns and experiences driving your difficulties
- Access support and onward referrals to other health professionals where needed
Sessions are available online via Zoom or telephone, making support accessible wherever you are.
THERAPEUTIC APPROACHES
A Tailored Approach. Not a One-Size-Fits-All Formula.
I draw on a range of evidence-based therapeutic approaches, selecting what fits your needs rather than applying a single method to everyone.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
A widely used, evidence-based approach for a broad range of mental health concerns, helping you identify and shift unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns.
Attachment Theory Approach
Explores how early relationships with caregivers may be shaping your patterns in relationships and interactions today.
Person-Centred Approach
Puts you, your experiences, your needs, your goals, at the centre of everything discussed in therapy.
Trauma-Focused CBT
A specialist form of CBT for those whose difficulties are rooted in traumatic experience. TF-CBT is one of the most effective evidence-based treatments for trauma, with a recommended course of 8–10 sessions.
SESSIONS & PRICING
How Long Does Therapy Take?
There's no single answer — it depends on what you're working through and what feels right for you.
As a guide:
- The NHS recommends a minimum of 6 sessions
- NICE guidelines recommend 8–12 sessions for most presentations
- TF-CBT is recommended over 8–10 sessions
