Guy Klein · CBT & EMDR Therapist
My Story
Grounded in evidence.
Human in practice.
I trained as a cognitive behavioural therapist after completing my undergraduate degree in psychology, driven by a long-standing interest in the mechanisms that keep people stuck — not just what they experience, but why, and what can actually shift it.
Over fifteen years, I have worked in the NHS, in private practice, and in specialist clinical settings. I have treated complex presentations across OCD, anxiety disorders, trauma, depression, perfectionism, and burnout — and I have sat with enough people to know that the quality of the formulation is usually what separates therapy that moves something from therapy that doesn't.
I trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) because I came to understand that for many people who have experienced trauma, talking alone does not reach what needs to shift. EMDR is NICE-recommended, rigorously evidenced, and, in my clinical experience, transformative in a way that still surprises me.
I am fully accredited with the British Association for Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies (BABCP) — the lead professional body for CBT in the UK. I also list with Psychology Today, and I work with most major private health insurers.
My practice is based in NW6, London, with in-person sessions on Thursdays. Online sessions are available worldwide, via secure video. I respond to all initial enquiries personally, typically within one working day.
