I'm an experienced counsellor and psychotherapist specialising in individual short and long-term therapy for difficulties with relationships, anxiety, low mood, depression, conflict, anger, stress, OCD, low self-esteem, lack of confidence, procrastination and lack of motivation.

My approach is to provide a confidential, non-judgemental space where we can talk through your experiences to gain clarity and insight, and develop a plan of manageable steps you can take to deal with problems in a way that leads to genuine change for you.

I work in an integrative way, drawing on a combination of therapeutic approaches: Rational Emotive Behavioural Therapy (REBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Therapy (CT) and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. These are very effective evidence-based approaches in the tradition of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) with a focus on helping you take consistent action to create positive change and remain resilient at difficult times.

I'm available for sessions at my practice in West Hampstead NW3 or online via video link. Phone sessions are also possible. For a confidential conversation about how I can help you, please call me on 07956 283 702 or email me at owen@owennewman.co.uk.
