I am a counsellor/therapist licensed in the UK with significant experience working as a counsellor in private practice and in hospice settings. I also have an interest in working in the outside space and have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, OCD, and addiction. I also helped many people who have experienced recent bereavement or have been given a terminal illness diagnosis.
My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic, and mindfulness-informed approaches. I will tailor our work together to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support you on your jorney.
I look forward to working with you.

Tim is very balanced, level-headed and reasonable in our discussions. He has helped me challenge thoughts that my mind builds up which are not based in reality. He understands my concerns, and is patient and supportive in helping me understand why I may have certain thoughts or beliefs.

Tim was very helpful and very likeable. I felt able to display my situation and how I felt about it, and he respected and supported the right course of action to take. I’d recommend Tim McLoughlin
