Please note: Therapist Circle is a directory, not a provider of therapy. We do not give medical advice, and we do not endorse or guarantee any practitioner. Always check registration yourself on the public register. Links to other services are for information; we are independent and not affiliated with the NHS, any health board or trust, or any professional or regulatory body.
Not a crisis service. If you need urgent help, call 999 if life is at risk, or Samaritans free on 116 123 (24 hours).
