About: Ealing IAPT

(as a service user),

I am an actress and fitness instructor who had been suffering badly with anxiety and very poor self esteem. I also suffered with an eating disorder when I was younger and never got help to deal with the issue. About this time last year I decided I'd had enough and signed up to Ealing's IAPT service. I had 10 sessions of CBT therapy, and the service I was given I can honestly say has changed my life. I had my last session with the service today and I am excited to put into practise all the techniques I have learnt. I cannot thank my therapist enough. I definitely still have down days, but knowing I am now equipped with the tools to help, makes me feel much stronger. I also feel secure in the knowledge that if I needed to go back to therapy, then I could.
