Specialist Support for Anxiety, Depression, Trauma and Bereavement.

At The Counselling Practice, we offer professional and confidential counselling for individuals, couples and young people in Watford. We recognise that reaching out for support can feel daunting, particularly when you are already carrying a great deal. Our aim is to provide a service that feels welcoming, steady and safe from your very first contact with us.
Our team of qualified counsellors brings both clinical expertise and genuine care to their work.

Our Specialisms
We specialise in working with:
Anxiety and stress-related difficulties

In addition, we provide counselling for addiction recovery, weight and body image concerns, food relationship difficulties, relationship and couples therapy, and counselling for children and young people.
Each person’s experience is unique. Our work is collaborative and tailored to your individual needs, providing a structured and supportive space to explore difficulties and develop healthier ways of coping and relating.
Our Therapeutic Approach
Our therapists draw on evidence-based and integrative approaches, adapting therapy to suit your needs. We place strong emphasis on the therapeutic relationship, as research consistently shows that a safe, trusting relationship is central to effective counselling.
We aim to provide a calm, contained environment where you can reflect, process experiences, and build resilience at a pace that feels manageable.
