Hi all, I posted this in Chat but had no responses.

Can anyone recommend a good therapist in London?

Thank you.

It depends where you are and which type of therapy, but have a look on here for ones near you. I found one this way and would go back to her. Your GP may have recommendations too.

Which part of London, OP?

Where are you in London?

Hi, thank you for replies.

I am in north London but happy to travel anywhere up to an hour really.

I know the BACP has a list linked above but would prefer a personal recommendation, where someone found a particular person very good. I wasted a lot of time trying to call from a shortlist from BACP before. There are so many I get overwhelmed and don't know who is 'better'. Obviously I know it will depend on being a good match but a personal recommendation can help.

Don't really mind what type of therapy, I am open to most!

I'll PM you details of mine later. I'm north London too. What sort of information would you like with my recommendation?

What about the Tavistock?

Absentmindedwoman · 22/10/2015 14:50

Reynoldsnumber - that would be great thanks, I suppose info like what you think makes the therapist good? What qualities you value about them? I think that would give a good indication of their personal style Smile

Isn't the Tavistock for couples therapy and also kids/ young adults? Maybe I'm wrong, will have to google..
