"Cognitive Behavioural Therapy"

About: Ealing IAPT

(as the patient),

CBT provided by Ealing IAPT helped me overcome severe depression and anxiety. I was very lucky to get Tom as my therapist. Tom's techniques for CBT exceeded all my expectations. When I first started, I was crying. By the end, I was overwhelmed with tears of gratitude. Tom changed my life! He listened to me very carefully and identified ways to alter my thought patterns. Tom was so thorough that he even picked up on my moods and the language I used to describe events. Tom used his experience, wisdom and vast amounts of practical advice that helped me evolve within such a short timeframe. He was passionate about his knowledge and motivated me to overcome my obstacles. I didn't expect it to change my life. Tom has given me the tools to help myself and recognise potential signs of relapse. He is patient, persistent, thorough, and extremely professional. It has been a blessing to have Tom as my therapist. I will be eternally grateful. Thank you for this service.

Thank you for reviewing the service. It is wonderful to hear how much you gained from therapy with Tom, both during therapy and having also confidence in being able to support yourself in the future. Engaging in therapy can be a very difficult task and it is clear that your openness in therapy allowed you to make such good progress.

We will definitely pass on your high praise to Tom.

With best wishes
