Counselling in Oxford

My name is Dr Daniel O’Toole (Danny) and I am the Principal Clinical Psychologist at Citadel Psychology. I have over 15 years experience working in the NHS and have also worked in the private and voluntary sectors. ​ As a clinical psychologist, I have worked with patients experiencing a wide variety of emotional and psychological difficulties. I take a compassionate and person-centred approach to my therapeutic work and draw on a range of evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Analytic Therapy (CAT), Mindfulness, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and psychodynamic psychotherapy.

I offer a safe, welcoming space to help you explore how you would like to live your life. I work with adults living with a range of difficulties including anxiety, depression, OCD, trauma, eating disorders, brain injury, interpersonal and relational difficulties, as well as psychosis. I am also passionate about supporting people through challenging life transitions for example becoming a new parent or starting retirement. I am an integrative clinical psychologist, with my practice drawing on a range of the latest evidence-based therapeutic approaches allowing therapy to be personalised and tailored to your individual needs.

A warm welcome to whoever is reading this. I know that it can be difficult for people struggling with their mental health to find a safe and reliable path through the challenging times in their life. I have a deep respect for anyone who has the courage to reach out for support. You will be in safe hands here. My name is David Barry. I am a Clinical Psychologist with over ten years of experience in a wide range of public and private sector settings.

I specialise in EMDR and Trauma Focused Interventions. I have specific expertise in working with people with trauma related mental health conditions such as PTSD, childhood trauma, domestic violence, dissociative difficulties and psychosis. I offer an integrative approach to therapy drawing heavily on attachment and trauma- informed ways of understanding how difficulties in the here and now often have their origins in earlier life experiences. I believe that effective therapy should be empowering, focused and meaningful and built upon the foundation of a strong therapeutic relationship.

You may experience unexpected disruption, chronic conditions, major life upheaval, triggering of past experiences, bereavement, and any of these could create anxiety, trauma or depression. Understanding could fall away, your support system could become unhelpful, anti-depressants may not be effective and your coping mechanisms may not work. You may feel overpowered by your circumstances and perhaps seek support and reinforcement as you experience distress. You may want your complex issues to be contained and get some tools and techniques to cope. Perhaps you may just like to confide in someone and share your experience.

It's a 'given' that life is complex. Finding a solution to difficulties can be so challenging, perhaps seemingly 'impossible'. However, nothing is impossible .... the very word itself tells us - "I'm-possible!"

I am a qualified Integrative Therapist. I have been working in the charity sector for more than 15 years . My life experiences with Mental Health Illness have made me value how important it is to share those experiences and to be guided on how to face those fears. I also realized how Mental Health Illness can effect day to day life: Stigma , Pressure , Lack of understanding of different aspects of culture , Backgrounds and Gender can contribute to how we can cope or not cope with all those challenges . Life can be full of difficulties but also full of surprises. It is about how we can recognize those experiences to move forward.
