My name is Chris Cherry. I am a qualified Integrative Psychotherapist and I have been working as a psychotherapist for more than 30 years. Qualifications and Experience. I offer short and long term psychotherapy for individuals and couples at my office which is in Bayswater, West London and at my home address near Maidenhead in Berkshire.
Why Psychotherapy?
At some point in our lives, we will all experience emotional troubles and difficulties. When these moments occur, we can become stressed or anxious and at these times it is often of benefit to explore and discuss the issues with an experienced psychotherapist who can listen, understand and help us to make sense of the unfolding emotional crisis.
I have worked in the field of psychotherapy for over thirty years and believe passionately in the usefulness and importance of therapy in alleviating depression, anxiety and emotional distress and in helping people who are recovering from painful or traumatic experiences.
Therapy is a process which gives you the opportunity to understand your own emotional self better. The aim is not for you to change yourself but rather for you to know yourself more intimately and to understand your personal triggers and likely reactions. With this knowledge, opportunities arise for you to be more reflective and perhaps choose to act differently to your initial instinctive reaction. In this way you become a more authentic version of your own self.
