Oliver North Psychotherapy

I integrate five models of therapy, so instead of just listening to your problems and nodding along, I weave in elements of these different approaches to help you understand yourself better and work through the things that are affecting your day-to-day life.

Life is really difficult for us at the moment. It's difficult for our community, and some days it feels like we're not safe. It's an unnerving place to be and iIt's important to take this into account during your therapy. Whether you're dealing with ADHD, coming out, family or relationship issues, trauma, or whatever it is, all of these things can be impacted or worsened by our society, and the wider world.

Our early childhood experiences and attachment styles can shape how we live and relate to others in our present lives, and I believe exploring these, alongside the issues you're going through, is fundamental to therapy.

Alongside this, I introduce practical techniques to help soothe and regulate your nervous system when unexpected moments threaten to hijack your mind, helping you rebuild your confidence and ease low mood. This is all wrapped up in that safe and trustworthy space I mentioned earlier; everything is confidential (unless there's a serious risk of harm) and held within the ethical guidance set out by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.

By connecting these five models, and applying the best and most relevant parts of them to the stuff that you're going through, it means you benefit from an approach completely tailored to you.
