Anyone know a good therapist for CBT, anxiety etc North West

Hi

I'm trying to find my DH a therapist, psychologist or whatever you call them. He finally got the guts to go to his GP but they said he'll have to wait 18 months.

Anxieties are to do with cleanliness, contamination or inadvertently harming others.

Were in the north west.

Or how can I find one?

have a look on the BABCP website and look for someone who is BABCP accredited. If it was me I would choose someone who also works for the NHS. It can be very expensive but dooesn't tend to go on for a long time.

I have a recommendation for someone in Cheshire if that helps ?

Cheshire would be great thanks. I tried looking on a few websites, and found it hard to find out what areas of psych people specialised in. That one you suggest looks much better. Dont care about the money, he is so unhappy.

Can you send me a private message or something, or do you just want to post the name, dont want you to get in trouble for 'advertising'

hmm - I had the same worry re advertising ! I am not registered so can't CAT - are you ?

Yes, but you know what, I dont think it matters, that site you suggested is so much better than others I found as you can search under specialisms, and I can see from peoples contact emails if they also work for the nhs

Felling better already, as he has been so bad this weekend, that I've been sat here crying about it.

Thanks

It's so hard to live with. Hope he gets some good support.

Also try the British Psychological Society website. I know a few people working in Wirral and Liverpool, get back to me if you need more contact names/numbers. Hope you find someone to help, and some peace of mind for yourself.
