For anxiety, we work on understanding what is maintaining the anxiety while developing practical ways of changing anxious thinking, avoidance and unhelpful coping behaviours.
“I suffered with anxiety for years and saw many professionals... I feel so much better. I see her once a month now as I enjoy going to see her and it helps so much!”
Anxiety can affect much more than your thoughts. It can influence your sleep, concentration, relationships, confidence, work and everyday decisions. Whether you experience constant worry, panic attacks, social anxiety or anxiety that feels difficult to explain, professional support can help you understand what is happening and develop healthier ways of managing it.
At London Psychologist Centre, we provide personalised psychological support for children, teenagers and adults experiencing anxiety. Your treatment is tailored to your individual circumstances, symptoms and goals, using appropriate, evidence-based therapeutic approaches to help you make meaningful and lasting changes.
My approach is highly personalised, focusing on breaking the specific cycles that keep your anxiety going.
Comprehensive Assessment: I begin with a thorough, compassionate assessment to understand your unique symptoms, triggers, and exactly how anxiety is impacting your daily life, work, or relationships.
Understanding What Maintains It: Anxiety persists when hidden patterns keep it alive. I will work with you to identify unhelpful thinking styles (like catastrophising), avoidance behaviours, and subtle “safety behaviours” that accidentally reinforce the fear over time.
Evidence-Based Treatment: Once we understand the root of the cycle, I use proven therapeutic approaches (such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) to help you challenge anxious thoughts, gradually reduce avoidance, and build practical, healthier coping strategies for lasting change.
Health anxiety involves persistent, overwhelming worries about having or developing a serious medical condition, often continuing even after medical reassurance. It can trap you in a distressing cycle of:
How I can help: I specialise in helping you break this cycle. We will work together to understand what maintains your health worries, reduce excessive body-checking and reassurance-seeking, learn to tolerate uncertainty, and build a healthier, calmer relationship with your body.
Active, evidence-based, solution-focused therapy.

Anxiety is not a single experience. It can develop in different ways and affect people differently. Understanding the type of anxiety you may be experiencing can be an important first step towards finding appropriate support.
Persistent and excessive worry about everyday situations, responsibilities, health, relationships, work or future events. The worry can feel difficult to control even when there is no immediate reason for concern.
Sudden episodes of intense fear or discomfort that can involve a racing heart, breathlessness, dizziness, shaking, chest discomfort or a feeling of losing control. Fear of experiencing another attack can sometimes lead to avoidance.
A strong fear of being judged, criticised, embarrassed or negatively evaluated by others. This can make social interactions, meetings, presentations or everyday situations feel extremely difficult.
An intense and persistent fear of a particular object, animal, situation or activity. The fear may lead to significant distress or avoidance, even when the perceived danger is limited.
Persistent worry about having or developing an illness, often leading to repeatedly checking symptoms, seeking reassurance or interpreting normal physical sensations as signs of serious illness.
Young people can experience anxiety in ways that differ from adults. This may include separation difficulties, school-related worries, social concerns, changes in behaviour, physical complaints or difficulty expressing what they are feeling.
Request an Initial Psychological Assessment to discuss your concerns and explore the most appropriate way forward.
