Personal counselling for individuals in London

Our therapists in Oxford Circus, Bloomsbury and Kensington are experienced in helping clients with a range of personal issues.

Counselling can help in many ways with all kinds of issues. Our therapists are open and approachable. They create a supportive, confidential space in which to help you address whatever might be on your mind.

We have been providing therapy in London since 2006, working with people of all ages and from many different backgrounds.

What happens at your first appointment?

At your first appointment, one of our therapists will ask what has brought you to therapy. They will invite you to tell them as much as you feel comfortable sharing. They will also respond to any questions or concerns you may have about therapy.

At the end of your first appointment, the therapist will ask if you wish to continue with further appointments. If you do want to continue, the therapist will set up your next appointments for you. 

Appointments with your therapist will be held weekly until you decide to end therapy. 

Taking the first step towards personal therapy

Get in touch with us to arrange your first meeting with one of our therapists. You can reach us by phone, email or through our online form.

Feeling better starts as soon as you’ve taken the first step. You’ll find your first appointment with us will be easier than you might think.

We’ll help you make sense of things from the very first appointment

Confidential counselling sessions

People seek counselling for many different reasons. Here are some issues we regularly help with:

Online therapy is also available with our London-based counsellors

Online therapy is available using platforms like Zoom, FaceTime and WhatsApp.

If you would prefer to have therapy from your home or office, all of our therapists are experienced in providing online counselling and psychotherapy. 

While most of our clients prefer to meet their therapist at our offices in Oxford Circus, Kensington or Bloomsbury, some of our clients prefer online sessions or a combination of both face-to-face and online counselling.

Therapy can be short or longer-term. Some people come for a few sessions while others continue longer. You may end therapy at any time, just by letting us know.

We understand that therapy is a private and very personal experience

Discussions in counselling are confidential. We operate a policy of non-discrimination — we do not discriminate on any grounds. Your therapist will not judge your behaviour, personal choices or past experiences. In therapy, you may discuss anything that’s on your mind.

A first meeting with your counsellor or an online session with us can be arranged here. You may also want to read our client testimonials.

Our clients have reported great results!

“I immediately felt completely at ease as they were very professional while showing genuine care and interest in helping me. I was able to confront many issues which I had so far chosen to ignore despite their negative effects on my personal relationships and happiness. I would have no hesitation in recommending (One Therapy) to anyone looking to improve their relationships and self-esteem.”

How does therapy help?

Over the years that I’ve worked as a therapist, I’ve been asked numerous times by prospective clients, “How does counselling help?”  And I’ve yet to come up with a satisfactory answer. Not because I’m in any doubt that it helps, but because the ‘how’ bit is so hard to articulate concisely…

What do I talk about in counselling?

One of the most common worries I hear expressed by people starting counselling is that they won’t know what to talk about. Some people think their problems aren’t significant enough. Others fear they have too much to say, that they might overwhelm the therapist…
