Brian Appleby

If you’re sad, anxious, confused or struggling to cope alone - wrestling with a relationship, addiction, stress or confidence issue - it doesn’t have to be that way. People have immense capacity to change but sometimes need help. I work in a warm, supportive way to allow you to unlock resources and identify solutions.

I provide individual and couple counselling on intimate, family and work relationships. Anxiety, low mood and addiction almost always have a relational dimension. For more information, please visit my website. I trained with Relate and have an MA with Distinction in Relationship Therapy. Before training as a therapist I worked in change management in international corporations. I know the stresses of the workplace. My approach is tailored individually to each person I work with. I have no rules about the number of sessions we spend together. Only a few can be transformational.

Sometimes people have feelings of shame about being unable to cope, or worry about social stigma around emotional or relationship problems. Perhaps feeling low, anxious misunderstood, lonely, jealous or angry. I understand those feelings. Working in partnership with you my aim is to address unhelpful patterns and turn a destructive cycle into a healing one.

My practice is located in Chiswick, West London. In an introductory session you have the opportunity to discuss what you’re up against and what you’d like to achieve, to see how we might work effectively together and to ask any questions about the process. 

Sessions last for 50 minutes. Fees vary according to time and location. There is scope for flexibility. Payment can be made by cash, cheque or bank transfer.
