Counselling services in Westminster

Many of the clients who consult us do so without a diagnosed condition, but simply to talk through issues in their lives which they believe are holding them back from fulfilment.   All of our therapy sessions are provided on a one-to-one basis. If you consider that you require emergency care, or represent a risk to yourself or others, we advise that you contact the appropriate emergency service, GP or visit your local Accident and Emergency department. 

Key Benefits

What you can expect

We provide client-focused talking therapies, using the most up-to-date evidence-based therapeutic techniques. All of our treatments are carried out in line with the recommendations of the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE); they are regularly reviewed and updated in accordance with latest research.

Client-led treatment

We believe that all therapy is consultative. We engage in ongoing discussion with you to determine the most effective treatments for your condition, and their duration. Although this will vary from client to client, you remain in control of the treatment that you receive, and we devise bespoke treatments that work for diagnosed conditions but also look beyond these to the specific needs and learning styles of the individual client, and address the issues that are most important to you.

Unrushed sessions

Many Central London therapy services are condensed into thirty minute sessions which fail to allow for the full benefits of the therapeutic process. At Equanimity, our sessions typically extend to fifty minutes, or even to sixty minutes, to ensure maximum client benefit.

Rapid response

As a provider of private psychotherapy services in Harley Street, we can commence treatments within one to two weeks of first contact, and in convenient Central London locations. We are conveniently located for clients looking for counselling services in Marylebone, Hyde Park, Mayfair, Harley Street W1, Chelsea SW3 and Kensington W8

Your treatment will always be personalised.

In recent years, psychological therapists have moved towards the use of a “cookbook” style form of therapy based on “disorder-specific” protocols. Although this style of therapy attempts to replicate treatment procedures with the best available evidence, it does not account for the individual differences people possess. At Equanimity, we will always pitch your sessions in accordance with your individual learning styles and we are happy to address as many issues as you would like.
