Dean Bristow

I understand that for some, therapy is a necessity and not a luxury, therefore I feel that it should be made more accessible for those who need it. For this reason, coupled with the ever-growing rise in cost of living, I offer more affordable long-term therapy sessions in person for those who wish to learn about themselves, their relationships, their concerns and choices in life. 

I have completed my degree in Integrative Psychotherapy and I am a registered with the BACP. I have completed further training in Mentalisation Based Therapy, Group Analytic and Compassion Focused Therapy. In my integrative approach, I draw on different areas of therapies depending on your current needs within a coherent framework for positive change.

I value each one of my clients and the therapeutic relationship that we build together. I recognise that we are all unique, with our own set of circumstances that have shaped our lives, therefore I draw on attachment theory to foster healthy and safe relationships, which allows for personal growth and development.

When I am not working in private practice, I work with adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse. I am also psychotherapy to offenders within the prison service and psychotherapist for an NHS Personality Disorder Service.

I am currently offering in person and remote psychotherapy sessions a couple of minutes walk from Liverpool Street Station in Central London. Sessions will last for 50 minutes, and are open ended. 

I offer all prospective clients a free 15 minute telephone consultation to see how I may be of service to you. Then depending on our availability we can arrange an initial 50 minute session.

The initial session is an opportunity to see how we can work together, explore your expectations and desired outcomes for therapy, and for you to ask any questions you may have regarding the process. Offering you a safe space to be seen and heard is my top priority.
