CBT & SOCIAL ANXIETY

If the thought of speaking in a group, making small talk, or even answering the phone fills you with dread, you’re not alone.

CBT and social anxiety are often talked about together because Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is widely recognised as one of the most effective treatments for this kind of anxiety.

Therapy can support individuals struggling with social anxiety by using structured, evidence-based CBT approaches.

“Grief changes shape, but it never ends.” – Keanu Reeves

----------------------------------------

Grief doesn’t follow a straight line — it shifts, softens, and sometimes resurfaces when we least expect it.

At HQ Therapy, we understand that healing isn’t about forgetting, but about finding new ways to live with loss.

Whether you’re navigating fresh pain or carrying long-held sorrow, you don’t have to go through it alone. Our experienced therapists provide a safe, compassionate space to help you process, adapt, and move forward — at your own pace.

For more information on how to cope with Bereavement, Grief, & Loss, use this link > https://www.hqtherapy.com/bereavement-grief-loss/

If you’re ready to talk, we’re here to listen.

HQ Therapy Rooms also offers beautiful, fully equipped therapy spaces for hire — ideal for counsellors, psychotherapists, and wellbeing practitioners looking for a supportive community and professional setting in Highbury, Haggerston and Dalston

JOIN OUR THERAPEUTIC COACHING GROUP

With Ellie Harvey, Integrative Counsellor & Coach

🤚 Hi everyone.
My name is Ellie, and I will be running a group that offers a supportive space for the ongoing practice of turning therapeutic insights into real-world changes, towards the things that matter most to us.

It’s designed as a next step or a companion to individual therapy or coaching, offering additional and ongoing support for integrating insights into daily life, maintaining motivation and experimenting with the kinds of changes that help us move closer to what’s important.

Groups can be a really useful tool for personal development, as we benefit not only from our own reflections but also from the shared experiences and perspectives of others on a similar path.

In this small, supportive space, participants can:
- Reflect on where they are and where they’d like to go
- Explore challenges and goals around relationships, work, confidence, creativity, or wellbeing.
- Share experiences, try new approaches, and learn from others’ insights
- Stay motivated and accountable to the changes that matter most to you.

📍🕚 When & Where: Mondays, 7-9pm at HQ Therapy Rooms, Highbury, London
🎟 Cost: £40 per session, or £140 for a 4-session block
👨‍👨‍👧‍👧 Group Size: Up to 8 participants (open group so people can join or pause as suits them)
📅 Start Date: Aiming for Monday, 17th November (open and ongoing enrolment)

The group is suitable for anyone who has had some prior therapy, coaching, or reflective experience and would like to continue their personal development within a supportive community.

🙎 ABOUT ME:
I’m an integrative counsellor and coach working with individuals, couples and groups, both online and in person. My approach draws on Person-Centred, CBT, Psychodynamic, Transactional Analysis, and Existential therapies.

I aim to create a space where people can understand themselves more fully, make sense of their challenges, and take meaningful steps toward the changes or ways of being that feel right for them.

SOMETIMES LIFE CAN GET OVERWHELMING!

AND YOUR MIND CAN GO INTO OVERLOAD!

We hear you.
But your mind doesn’t have to be the enemy.

Anxiety, stress and panic attacks are all normal emotions, but can become debilitating mental health conditions when experienced overwhelmingly or recurrently. Both these issues can have mental as well as physical and emotional symptoms, and severely impede your quality of life.

There is strong evidence that many forms of therapy can help with anxiety and panic attacks. Approaches like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), which help you to regulate your emotions, are most common. Mindfulness therapy and relaxation techniques can be helpful in managing your physical and emotional symptoms and avoiding your anxiety escalating in the moment.

In therapy, we create space to gently explore the thoughts that feel overwhelming, the emotions that weigh heavily, and the stories that repeat.

With time, support, and understanding, your mind can become a place of clarity, compassion, and even calm.

👉 You’re not stuck. Healing is possible.

We’re here when you’re ready.

ON THE COUCH | EPISODE 2 - HENRY CLAY

Welcome back to ‘On the Couch’, filmed on location at HQ Highbury Fields. This week, sit down with Person-Centred Counsellor Henry Clay!

In Henry’s own words:

“I’m Henry Clay, a fully qualified Person-Centred therapist. My practice is based at HQ Therapy Rooms in Haggerston, Hackney.

The relationship between a therapist and their client is the priority and I am open to working with any client who feels I would be the right therapist for them. As a therapist, I have a broad range of experience, including working with ADHD, autism and gender identity.

I find the therapeutic work happens within the dialogue between therapist and client. So, my role is to work with my clients to create a relationship that feels safe, supportive, and confidential. I work with clients in a collaborative, non-judgemental and pragmatic way.

Every client has their own preferences and goals; I adapt my approach to meet them where they’re at. Sessions are always underpinned by finding the right pace and direction for them.”

"When angry, count to ten before you speak." – Thomas Jefferson

He also followed up with:
"If very angry, count to one hundred."

Anger is a natural emotion — but how we respond to it makes all the difference.

At HQ Therapy, we help you explore what's beneath the anger, develop emotional regulation tools, and find healthier ways to communicate.

Sometimes, taking a breath is the first step toward healing.
