Find the right psychologist for you
A few short questions so we can understand what you need and suggest the right psychologist for you. It takes about three minutes.
Step 1 of 20
Where can we reach you?
We ask for this up front so we can get back to you, even if something interrupts you before the end. Your details stay confidential.
Please check your details and try again.
Your enquiry is treated with strict confidentiality in accordance with our privacy policy. Your answers go only to our clinical team.
Will you be living in the UK while receiving therapy with us?
Therapy if you live outside the UK
We're sorry, but we're only able to offer therapy to people who are living in the UK. This is due to professional guidelines and insurance restrictions on our practice. If you're based overseas, we'd recommend seeking a qualified local therapist who understands the regulations and resources in your country.
Who would you like support for?
Who is the assessment for?
Our waiting list for children and young people is currently closed
We have had a very high number of referrals for children and young people, and our waiting list is now longer than we would like. We have paused new referrals for under 18s and hope to reopen our waiting list at the start of November.
If you would like us to tell you when it reopens, please leave your email address below. We will email you once and will not use your email address for anything else.
Once it reopens and you complete our form, we will add your child to our waiting list if we think we can provide the right support for them. We cannot give an exact wait time, but we expect most children joining in November to be offered an appointment in early 2027. If a suitable clinician has space sooner, we will be in touch.
Leaving your email address does not add your child to our waiting list. You will need to come back and complete our form once it reopens.
Please check your email address and try again.
How old are you?
What is your gender?
What brings you here?
A few sentences is plenty, but the more you can share, the better we can think about who would be the best fit. Whatever you share stays confidential.
Please tell us a little about what brings you here, a sentence is fine.
Have you had therapy or counselling before?
Please tell us a little about it: what it was for, whether it helped, and roughly when.
Please answer the following questions about yourself.
In the last 6 months, have you had any thoughts about hurting yourself, or ending your life?
Are the thoughts about hurting yourself (self-harm), about ending your life, or both?
Are you currently making plans to end your life?
Have you ever, at any point in your life, tried to end your life?
When was the most recent time?
A rough sense is fine.
Have you been harming yourself in the last 6 months?
Have you needed medical treatment for the self-harm? (for example A&E, stitches, or seeing your GP about it)
If you’d like to, tell us a little more about the self-harm.
How often are you self-harming at the moment?
Has the self-harm been getting more frequent, or more serious, recently?
Is your GP aware of what you’ve shared with us here?
If you answered 'Yes' to any of the previous questions and would like to share anything else, please use the space below:
Are you currently using alcohol in a way that feels hard to manage or is significantly affecting daily life?
Are you currently using recreational drugs in a way that feels hard to manage or is significantly affecting daily life?
Where would you prefer to have your sessions?
We usually have more availability online, so choosing online or either means being seen sooner.
When are you generally free for sessions?
Choose any that apply. This helps us match you with someone who has availability that fits.
Days
Please select at least one day.
Time of day
Please select at least one time of day.
We have male and female Clinical Psychologists in our team.
We suggest the psychologist who is the best clinical and therapeutic fit, but if you have a strong preference about the gender of the psychologist you see, please let us know.
Is there a type of therapy you would like to try?
Choose as many as you like. If you are not sure, that is completely fine, our clinical team will guide you.
What are you hoping for from therapy?
Tap up to three that matter most to you, in order of importance. Completely optional, and there is no right answer.
Would you prefer therapy that feels more structured, or more exploratory?
There is no right answer, and your psychologist will shape this with you.
Have you experienced anything traumatic or distressing that still affects you today?
This helps us match you with a psychologist experienced in the right approaches. Share only what you are comfortable with.
How will you be funding therapy?
Is there anything else you would like to share with us?
Optional. Anything you feel would help us understand what you need and find the right match.
Almost there
One last thing, then confirm you're not a robot and send your enquiry to our clinical team.

About ADHD and autism assessments
We do not offer ADHD or autism assessments, so we are not the right service for a diagnosis. If you are looking for an assessment, your GP can refer you, and in England you can also ask about your legal right to choose your assessment provider (Right to Choose), which can shorten waiting times.
Where we can help is therapy. Many people we work with are exploring a possible diagnosis, waiting for an assessment or making sense of one they have received. Our psychologists support the difficulties that often sit alongside, such as anxiety, low mood and low self-esteem.
If that sounds useful, you are very welcome to continue.
Thank you for being honest with us
It sounds like things are really hard right now. Because you have told us about thoughts you might act on, a weekly outpatient service like ours is not the safest option for you at the moment.
Please reach out to one of these services today. They are used to conversations like this and are there to support people who are feeling the way you are at the moment.
Support available right now
- Your GP, ask for an urgent appointment. As well as being able to arrange crisis support quickly, your GP can refer you to your local Community Mental Health Team (CMHT) for psychological therapy alongside that support.
- Your local mental health crisis team, you can contact them directly, and your GP can also connect you
- SHOUT, text SHOUT to 85258 for free, confidential support by text
- Samaritans on 116 123, free to call, 24 hours a day
- NHS 111, choosing option 2, for urgent mental health support
If you are in immediate danger, go to A&E or call 999.
Why these services, and not us? Our clinic offers planned weekly therapy, with the same psychologist at the same time each week. That works well when you can wait safely between sessions, but it is not crisis support, and from what you have said, crisis support is what matters most right now. The services above can respond today, and helping people through moments like this is exactly what they do.
We do offer therapy for people who have been through a crisis, once the immediate risk has passed. If that point comes and you would like weekly sessions, contact us again then.
Thank you for being honest with us
That is not always easy to share. In our experience, when alcohol or drugs are taking up a lot of space, weekly therapy on its own tends not to be enough, and we would rather be honest about that.
Therapy works best alongside specialist substance support, so we would encourage you to start there:
- Your GP, who can connect you with local services
- We Are With You (Kent), free and confidential, at wearewithyou.org.uk
- Change Grow Live at changegrowlive.org
Once that support is in place, we would be really pleased to work with you alongside it or afterwards. You are welcome to come back to us at any point.
We don't offer couples therapy at the moment
Thank you for thinking of us. Our psychologists currently work with individuals only, so we're not able to offer therapy for couples.
If you or your partner would like support on your own, we'd be glad to help with that. You can start an individual enquiry below.
If you're looking for couples therapy, Relate offers relationship counselling across the UK, both in person and online.
