Michael Onslow

I work Monday to Friday. Please enquire about availability.

Are you struggling beneath the appearance of coping, self-reliance or even creativity? I became a therapist after a long career in the arts and I help people with anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma, low self-esteem and emotional overwhelm.

Many of the people I work with function well in their day-to-day lives but privately experience anxiety, self-criticism, relationship difficulties, emotional overwhelm, grief, or a persistent sense that they have to manage everything alone.

You might find yourself replaying conversations, doubting yourself afterwards, feeling responsible for other people’s emotions, or struggling to understand why certain situations affect you so deeply. Or perhaps you feel disconnected from yourself or exhausted by trying to hold everything together.

In therapy, we will take time to understand not only what feels difficult now, but how your past experiences may still be shaping the way you feel, relate to others, and respond to yourself.

As this understanding develops, you may find yourself becoming less hard on yourself, more able to trust your reactions, and less caught in ways of living that no longer feel helpful. Experiences that once felt confusing can begin to make more sense. Relationships can feel less effortful and emotions less overwhelming. It may become easier to recognise what you feel, speak more openly about what you need, and feel less emotionally pulled by the expectations of others.

My background in the arts continues to shape the way I work as an integrative therapist. I am comfortable with complexity, sensitivity, and emotional intensity, without needing to simplify your experience or move too quickly towards solutions.

You do not need to arrive with the right words or a neatly explained story. We can begin wherever you are and work at a pace that feels manageable.

This deeper understanding can lead to meaningful and lasting change.

I am a fully qualified psychotherapist registered with the BACP and accredited with the NCPS.

My rooms are on the 2nd floor, light and airy, and away from the stresses and strains of London life. Access is by stairs and there is a waiting room with toilet facilities.

I know that beginning therapy can feel like a significant step, particularly if you are used to coping alone. I offer a free 20 to 30 minute initial consultation, giving you the chance to ask questions and get a sense of whether working together feels right for you.
