We can provide tried and tested treatment for a range of mental health conditions including:

Anxiety treatment

Anxiety is a serious mental health condition. It can have a destructive impact on your ability to function effectively, as well as your physical and mental health. While it’s normal for everyone to feel worried and anxious from time-to-time, it’s important to recognise that if you’re experiencing overwhelming feelings of worry and dread that persist over a prolonged period of time, then you might be struggling with an anxiety disorder.

Anxiety can be debilitating and can prevent you from completing even the smallest of tasks. This can make it difficult for people  to get the help they need, which means they don’t benefit from expert anxiety treatment.

Anxiety is treatable, and the most important first step if you think that you or someone you know is struggling, is to seek help.  Our team of anxiety specialists at North London will work closely with you to help you to identify and address the underlying causes of your anxiety, tackle your symptoms, and return to the healthy, anxiety-free life you deserve.

Depression treatment

Depression is a severe mental health condition that can cause intense low moods and overwhelming feelings of sadness. It can have a detrimental impact on your psychological, emotional and physical wellbeing, and your ability to perform day-to-day tasks. While everyone can feel sad, upset or ‘down’ from time-to-time, people suffering from depression experience such crushing ‘lows’, that it affects the way they think, feel and act on a daily basis.

Some of the most common symptoms of depression include persistent feelings of despair and hopelessness, which unfortunately, can prevent people from seeking the help they need. However, it’s important to recognise that your depression symptoms are unlikely to go away on their own, and seeking specialist, evidence-based treatment is the most crucial step that you can take. Our depression experts at North London are committed to helping you every step of the way towards recovery.

Stress treatment

Unfortunately, stress is becoming an increasingly common problem in the modern world, and can be defined as our mind and body’s response to intense mental or emotional strain. Stress can be experienced by anyone and although it’s normal to feel stressed from time-to-time, it’s important to recognise when ‘normal’ levels of stress are increasing to the point that it’s causing physical symptoms, emotional exhaustion and feeling as though you can’t cope.

Without specialist stress treatment, chronic stress can become worse over time and can have a destructive impact on your personal and professional life. Our North London stress treatment experts can help you to reduce your symptoms, improve your wellbeing, and develop coping strategies for dealing with stressful situations in healthier ways.
