I support clients with anxiety, trauma and/or chronic pain and illness to live their best life. Anxiety can be debilitating and overwhelming. I work with you to offer new perspective, to resolve issues and find new ways forward. We often 'block' thoughts as a coping strategy, and whilst this can be very useful, it can increase anxiety. If you experience physical symptoms such as headaches, IBS, joint pain or fibromyalgia, your body may be literally holding the weight of your anxiety. We can consider whether a more holistic approach will help you–exploring the connection between your physical symptoms and your emotions.

When life gets difficult or you are faced with challenges, starting therapy can feel daunting. By offering a safe space for you to share and reflect on emotional, mental, or behavioural issues that may be troubling or difficult to work through; I will help you gain an insight into your unconscious thoughts, behaviours and emotions. Through gaining a deeper understanding of yourself and how your past experiences, are impacting you, you can begin to feel more in control of your inner world; develop new perspectives, and acquire more helpful ways of coping and relating to others.

I’m Pritesh Joshi — a CBT and EMDR therapist helping high-performing people break free from emotional overload, trauma, and silent burnout. I work with professionals who seem “fine” on the outside… but feel quietly overwhelmed, disconnected, or emotionally flat on the inside. I’m not the kind of therapist who just nods and asks, “And how does that make you feel?” Clients often tell me, “You actually get it.” That’s because I believe therapy shouldn’t feel clinical or cold — it should feel like a grounded conversation that actually helps you move forward.

I can offer you couples work or one-to-one personal therapy. You may have relationship and/or personal issues and these may relate to your self esteem, trust issues, anger, parenting, problems with anxiety, stress and depression, or you may just feel that your current situation is limiting you. I am an experienced couples and individual therapist and you won't know if therapy can help you unless you try. It can be difficult though to reach out. You can work with me and I will offer you a safe, supportive space. We can talk things through together. Sometimes we all need to turn to someone who isn't a family member or a friend.

Hello. I am a warm, experienced clinical psychologist. I have been working with people with a range of psychological difficulties for over twenty years. I see adults, teenagers and parents. My therapeutic approach is based on a combination of Internal Family System (IFS), Cognitive Therapy (with a base of CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, If you are experiencing intense distress our work may either take the form of a more intensive, time-limited therapy to help you regain a sense of emotional balance. Equally we may work in a more explorative manner better suited to understanding more deep seated emotional difficulties.

Do you often find yourself exhausted and angry, despite your professional success? There are relentless "people"-demands at work and at home. What you really want is to get on with the thing that interests you the most, whether it's coding or research or another passion. Time alone is like oxygen. If you are an autistic professional wondering what's wrong with you, you might think you are a bad person. You may blame it all on autism. Deep down you know things can be different. But you feel hopeless and trapped. You want there to be calm, order and...time. You would also quite like to be understood and loved. That would be nice!
