I’m a psychotherapist with 30 years of experience in addiction treatment. I work with adults facing challenges related to alcohol, drugs, or pornography, and support those dealing with anxiety, anger, depression, or relationship difficulties.

Alongside my private practice, I work at The Nightingale Hospital in Marylebone, a leading centre for adult mental health and addiction care.

Your first consultation is offered at half my usual session fee so we can explore your needs and see how we work together.

Take care,

Toby

How I work

I am an ‘integrative’ psychotherapist, which means I believe that a single therapy approach will not help you with all issues that arise for you, and that there are many different therapeutic ways for problems to be explored and worked on. Consequently, I draw techniques and ideas from different ‘schools’ of therapy, depending on the needs of the people I see.

At the heart of my work is helping you see that your emotions aren't a problem, but your defences against them are. As long as you avoid the healthy expression of your emotions, you will feel anxious and employ cognitive and behavioural defences that will create problems for you. Our therapeutic task is to help you see and let go of these defences.

An initial session to assess your counselling needs is charged at £42.50
