Comprehensive Therapy in West London
At Oxford House Therapy we offer a comprehensive range of therapy options in West London work and with many different issues including just some of the following.
Our Therapists profile pages explain more about their individual specialisms and the services they provide.
Addiction Therapy
Addictions to alcohol, drugs (illegal or prescription), sex, pornography, gambling, eating or shopping, for example, usually start as coping strategies for escaping emotional pain. These strategies can develop into long-term habits which can get in the way of the lives of the addict and affect those around them.
Anger Therapy
Anger is often seen as explosive, but it can also be passive. When unexpressed, it can harm self-esteem, relationships, and emotional wellbeing. Addressing anger promotes healthier emotional balance.
Anxiety and Panic Attack Therapy
Therapy can provide effective support for anxiety and panic attacks by equipping you with practical strategies to manage these challenges. It also offers a safe space to uncover the underlying causes or triggers of your anxiety, helping you develop healthier, alternative ways to respond.
Bereavement and Loss Therapy
The pain of grief and loss from a death or an ending or change in a relationship can be very difficult to bear and lasts for different lengths of time in different people. You may experience a range of feelings including numbness, denial, anger and sadness.
Couples Therapy
A relationship brings together two unique individuals, each with their own upbringings, life experiences, and differences. When combined with the pressures of daily life, challenges in a relationship are inevitable. Couples counselling and marriage guidance privode a space for couples to work through these challenges in a constructive way.
Depression Therapy
While it's natural to experience low moods from time to time, depression is more than ujst feeling down. Therpay provides a supportive and non-judgemental space to help you understand and manage your depression.
Family Issues Therapy
Families can throw up challenges whether in our family of origin, our current family, or our family-in-law. This can be due to the roles that we learn and play out which can get in the way of authentic and deep relationships.
Gender Therapy in West London
If you are questioning your gender or sexuality identity, or in the process of coming out or transitioning it can be helpful to have a confidential, non-judgemental and safe space to talk through your feelings, concerns or doubts.
Identity Therapy
Identity is used to describe how we see ourselves as well as how others see us as some parts of our identity are visible and other parts are invisible. Different elements of our identity include our gender, race, sexuality, religion and nationality. Sometimes we can struggle with a part of our identity or with our identity as a whole and sometimes we can struggle with changes in our identity.
Isolation and Loneliness Therapy During the Quarantine
As part of the fight to limit the spread of COVID-19 the new social distancing rules mean that millions of people are now working from home and have very little social contact. Such a significant change in daily routines may increase feelings of social isolation and loneliness during the quarantine.
Parenting and Step-parenting Therapy
Parenting can be rewarding but it can also be fraught with challenges. The demands, responsibilities and expectations can sometimes feel overwhelming and painful memories from your own childhood may also be stirred up. Being ‘good’ parents often feels hard. Blended families can present particular challenges as the members adjust to their new family situation.
Relationship Issues Therapy
Relationships with your partner, family, friends or in your job or elsewhere may not always be easy. Relationships are complex and dynamic and each one is unique.
Self-esteem Therapy
Having low self-esteem is difficult for us as we can feel unloved, worthless, incompetent and can lack confidence and this can affect all areas of our lives. It can cause us to view ourselves and others unrealistically and can affect our relationships.
Stress and Overwhelm Therapy
Stress can be healthy in small doses but sometimes we feel it is overwhelming us and this can cause anxiety and impact many areas of our life including our physical health.
Suicidal thoughts and Feelings Therapy
Suicidal thoughts and feelings can arise when you have the feeling that you are at a dead end and have no other options.
Transition and Change Therapy
Change is a natural part of life and at times it can be exciting but it also involves loss and can be destabilising. Change means we have to leave our comfort zone and face new and often difficult challenges and this can leave us feeling vulnerable and alone.
Trauma and PTSD Therapy
Trauma is a broad term and one that incorporates acute, chronic and complex traumas.
Our collective understanding of what constitutes Trauma is evolving almost daily with the help of neuroscience and other research.
Work/Life Balance Therapy
Juggling life with work is not always easy and finding the time for everything we have to do and want to do can be a real challenge. Sometimes we can find that work takes over and this can affect our relationships with partners, family and friends and our time to relax and have fun.
