Alexandra Townshend

I run a private practice from both Wandsworth and Central London.

Additionally I work as a psychotherapist for both Nuffield Health and The Priory Hospital, I am located from both the hospital in Roehampton as well as their Central London Harley Street therapy rooms.

"There is still so much stigma here in the UK around mental health issues – strange really, as we will happily spend hours in the gym and on special diets, in order to care for our bodies and physical health! So, why not our psychological well being? Recent breakthroughs in neuro-science inform us that physical changes take place in the brain when we are emotionally or psychologically distressed. The mind/body relationship is more central to our lives today than ever before".
