James Landy, BACP

James uses clear, evidence-based techniques that focus on changing unhelpful thinking and behaviour. One common approach helps people identify anxious thoughts and test them with small experiments to reduce worry and avoidance; it is useful for anxiety, stress and obsessive thinking. Another approach focuses on building skills for relationships and intimacy by improving communication and understanding patterns of attachment and abandonment, which helps with jealousy, commitment concerns and feelings of emptiness.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then suggest methods to try. Together they review what helps and adjust the plan as needed, so sessions stay practical and goal-focused.

Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls recreate a face-to-face conversation for deeper work, phone sessions can be done with lower bandwidth, live chat works for short check-ins and text-based messaging suits people who prefer writing or need flexible timing. These options allow continuity of care across locations and help people keep therapy going when schedules change.
