Starting Your Therapy Journey

Embarking on a therapeutic journey can be a daunting venture. We are a small team of experienced chartered psychologists who will ensure to make this journey as safe for you as possible.

We offer a safe, confidential and compassionate space to help you understand and make sense of your symptoms/difficulties, overcome these difficulties and enhance your well-being.

Therapy can help you to see your current situation in a new light, depth, and clarity. It can change old and unhelpful perspectives, feelings about yourself and your life, and ultimately help you make positive changes.

What is the difference between a Psychologist, Psychiatrist, and Psychotherapist?
The difference between a Psychologist, Psychiatrist and Psychotherapist is the training and approaches they use. Psychotherapists use several talking therapies to assist in their work similar to Psychologists. Psychologists, however, have a degree and often a Masters or Doctorate in Psychology, they also tend to use psychometrics to support their approach. Psychiatrists are trained medical doctors who have gone on to specialised in mental health; they are also able to prescribe medication. Here at the Bloomsbury Therapy Practice, we are highly qualified Psychologists, we are accredited or members of a UK regulatory or governing body.

Are the sessions confidential?
Yes, we provide a safe and confidential space where any issues can be explored. If we believe you are a risk to yourself or someone else we may need to breach confidentiality.

How long is a session?
Our sessions are 50 minutes long. However, EMDR sessions can be 90 minutes long, depending on the issue.

How many sessions do I need to have?
At the Bloomsbury Therapy Practice, we offer a number of services, from long term to short term therapy. The number of sessions depends entirely on your personal situation and presenting issues. At the initial session your therapist will discuss with you, what you are looking to get out of the sessions and your personal treatment plan and together you can decide how many sessions may be suitable for your needs.
