3 Best Psychologists in London, UK

Best in the business!! I’ve suffered from an extreme and severe form of OCD for many decades and got to a state where each day I was ‘surviving’ not living. I couldn’t eat, go out without scrubbing my body with antiseptic couldn’t work properly, and in excruciating physical pain. I knew if I carried on, I was close to the end. As a last gasp, I decided to get help. I am so so thankful for finding Denise. I probably wouldn’t be here if not for From thinking I couldn’t be helped, I can now eat properly, I cook, I opened my windows for the first time in years, my physical scars have healed and I am rising fast at work. The care she provided was exceptional. She knew exactly how to get me to talk and explained what was wrong. It felt good to find out that I am not ‘weird’ and that there was a way out. It was hard work and there’s no silver bullet. I had to face my fears. But as hard as I worked I knew Denise was there with me every step of the way, encouraging me when it was right and providing tough love when it was needed. - KT

I am a 33-year old man, and I am not ashamed to say that Dr. Freeman's treatment was really helpful to overcome my nail-biting habit. Denise was extremely committed, with 15min catch-up every morning and evening, including weekends, at the beginning of the treatment (then slowly spacing out) to "set me up for the day" or "debrief the day", respectively. I was particularly impressed by Denise's capacity to always come up with a different angle to discuss my OCD (basically 15 times a week!) and each of them was always adding value and giving me a new tool to fight my addiction. I don’t think that willpower has ever been my strongest skill, but Denise definitely helped me developing it so that I can better control myself and resist temptation. I highly recommend Dr. Freeman. - FS

I came to Dr. D with depression, anxiety, some issues about my identity, self-esteem and growing up. In 4 months of therapy she helped me to discover a lot about how my past forms my personality, thought patterns and behavior, my desire for the future, and the potential I have to both accept & better myself. Dr. D is a very attentive listener. She is excellent & sharp at identifying problems; gentle & careful with her words; creative at suggesting different ways to find the solutions myself. She made me feel comfortable to open up. She also seems to have a profound knowledge of many subjects besides psychology. I’m very impressed with her understanding, analyzing, organizing, and articulating skills. Throughout the journey, I feel entirely embraced, energized and encouraged. I can see her genuineness along with utter dedication and professionalism. And how she was fully immersed in using the resources and wisdom she has in helping me. I’ve proudly introduced my loved ones to her, and would definitely recommend to anybody who’s struggling. Her kindness was invaluable. - CH

I found Christine after leaving my wife and I was suffering from severe depression and anxiety. I had treatment for around a year or so and felt really good with friends and family saying I was a much more positive person than I was when I left my ex. In the last 6 months or so I have taken up treatment again after a 5 year gap with some anxiety issues initially sparked from work problems. Christine really helped me where previous counsellors have not. She is always so friendly and professional and takes such an interest in me and remembers my life story even when I go off at various tangents. She has the ability to bring me back and focus. I cannot recommend Christine more highly and she is someone to be respected and trusted as I do.

Christine is an exceptional psychologist. She helped me immensely at a very difficult time after the birth of my first child. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that she changed my life in many ways. She is highly empathetic, is able to quickly get to the crux of your issues, and is very skilled at helping you to effect change. I instantly felt comfortable with her and felt she offers a great balance of being friendly and relatable as well as professional. She is very intelligent and is an expert in her field. She is not at all judgemental and clearly connects with people very well. I would not hesitate to recommend her to others.

Christine has helped me a lot with her intelligent proactive approach. I found it helpful to be given follow up ‘homework’! She has given me a lot of insight into my unhelpful behaviour patterns . She is approachable and flexible and I feel I am in very safe hands with her.
