How Can We Help?

We use CBT and Talking Therapy to help adults, couples and children through various emotional and psychological challenges including, but not limited to:

Anger Issues
Therapy helps you identify what’s driving your anger and develop healthier ways to express and manage it. Over time, you can regain control and rebuild calmer, more constructive relationships.

Anxiety
Whether you struggle with generalised anxiety, panic attacks, or specific phobias, we will help you spot triggers, challenge unhelpful thinking patterns, and build practical coping skills.

Bereavement
Grief can feel isolating and overwhelming. Bereavement counselling in East Dulwich provides a compassionate space to process loss, adapt to change, and find a path forward at your own pace.

Counselling for Carers
Caring for someone else can be emotionally demanding. We support carers to manage stress, set boundaries, and prioritise their own mental health without guilt.

Child & Teenager Counselling
Young people need age-appropriate support. We offer tailored therapy to help children and adolescents express emotions, develop resilience, and cope with school or family issues.

Depression & Low Mood
When low mood makes everyday life difficult, East Dulwich therapy can help you understand patterns, build routines, and rediscover meaning and motivation.

We provide sensitive, evidence-based support for those experiencing disordered eating or body image concerns, working towards a healthier relationship with food and self.

Family sessions can resolve conflict, improve communication, and help everyone navigate transitions more smoothly.

The Therapy Process at The Harley Psychology & Therapy Group

At The Harley Psychology & Therapy Group, starting East Dulwich counselling is straightforward. First, contact our team, and we’ll help match you with a therapist suited to your concerns. Your initial appointment focuses on understanding your history, current difficulties and what you want to achieve. From there, we determine a therapy plan. This may be short-term, goal-focused work or longer-term therapy depending on your needs.

You can book via our live online diary and choose face-to-face or video sessions according to what suits you best.

What to Expect After Completing Therapy

We offer both in-person counselling at our East Dulwich clinic and secure online video sessions. Face-to-face work can provide the benefit of in-person connection, while online therapy adds flexibility and accessibility, which is ideal if you have a busy schedule or live further away. Both formats maintain the same level of confidentiality and clinical quality.
