TESTIMONIALS
What Our Clients Say
“When I first entered Therapy, I was extremely anxious and terrified to talk about my intrusive thoughts. Over the course of my treatmentI learnt to accept their presence, without assigning meaning to them, and all the emotions that came with them. Terrifying because my instinct was to do the opposite but slowly my anxiety began to fade and the intrusive thoughts lessened. I now have the confidence that I can handle whatever they throw at me.”
Natasha
” I had CBT Therapy with Alistair Bond following a cycling accident which had left me fearful of cycling, crossing roads and travelling in cars. On starting the therapy I was having flashbacks and experiencing physical symptoms of anxiety when near roads. As my therapy went on these symptoms significantly improved and my general levels of anxiety and mood lifted. Now having completed the course I feel like my old self again and am truly grateful and relieved!”
Alice
” Many thanks for the therapy sessions, I’ve found them exceptionally useful. I think the last session was particularly valuable as that’s when I made made an important breakthrough. I will use the tools you have given me and hopefully this will see me through most of my issues. Should I find I need to top up, I will certainly be in contact.”
David
“I found the staff professional and kind, explaining the process to me every step of the way. I understand myself more clearly now and have begun to make positive changes in my life. There was such a high level of customer service.”

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Here are the answers to some of the most commonly asked questions about CBT Therapy
CBT Therapy is a talking therapy that helps us to become aware of and change our “unhelpful thoughts and “unhelpful behaviours”. The CBT model says that it is our “unhelpful thoughts” that create our distressing and overwhelming emotions which often lead to negative behaviour and unwelcome physical changes in our bodies. So by changing the way we think and creating a kinder, balanced and more realistic thinking style, we can alleviate a large part of our own emotional distress and “problems”.
The CBT model also says that our “unhelpful behaviour patterns” cause us to then think in an “unhelpful way” which then causes all the difficulties and changes we have just mentioned.
So by recognising and changing our “unhelpful behaviour into more “helpful behaviour” we can reduce the difficulties we are unknowingly creating for ourselves.
CBT Therapy, unlike some of the other talking treatments, mainly focuses on the ‘here and now’ problems and difficulties. Instead of focusing on the causes of your distress or symptoms in the past, it looks for ways to improve your state of mind right now. If we do need to discuss past issues we only will do so in relation to how those events have affected your thinking and behaviour in the present day.
CBT has been shown to help with many different types of problems. These include: Anxiety, Depression, Panic, Phobias (including Agoraphobia and Social Anxiety), Stress, Insomnia, Bulimia, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Bipolar -Disorder and Psychosis.
CBT can also help if you have difficulties with Anger, a low opinion of yourself or physical health problems, like Pain or Chronic Fatigue.
CBT can help you to make sense of overwhelming problems by breaking them down into smaller parts. This makes it easier to see how they are connected and how they affect you. These parts are:
Situation – a problem, event or difficult situation.
From this can follow:
- Thoughts:
- Emotions
- Physical feelings
- Actions
Although CBT is a therapy that predominantly focuses time, effort, change, and attention on the things that are creating an experience in the present day. CBT does not just stop there. CBT also recognises that our past has a huge influence on who we are in the present day. How we think and how we behave. For a therapist to disregard or ignore this fact when treating a patient is a kind of professional negligence. For a client or patient to be blind to this fact is also extremely unhelpful and often a barrier to their recovery.
Our minds are a creation of every experience we’ve had in the past good and bad, pleasant and unpleasant, nice not nice, wanted not wanted. The way that you think, the things you believe about yourself, about other people and the world and life itself are a direct consequence of the past creating and shaping the mind you have right now in the present day.
Many behaviours that we do in the present day whether it is to protect yourself, whether it is to fix something about ourselves that we believe is wrong, or whether it’s just to compensate for some perceived inadequacy or failure inside of us. All have their roots in the past and past experiences. Other more easily recognised behaviours ie Avoidance behaviours, safety behaviours, OCD behaviours. addiction behaviours eating behaviours all stem from the past.
BF Skinner the renowned Behaviourist famously said “Man is a product of his past experiences.” Although his quote adds weight to the fact that CBT Therapy should consider the past when working with clients. However, what Skinner said is not actually correct. Your mind is in fact the creation of your past experiences, not you. This is a very important distinction.
