Therapy Waiting List Temporarily Closed
Due to an exceptionally high level of demand, we are having to close our therapy waiting list for a short period of time. We will announce on our website when we are able to take new referrals again. We apologise for any inconvenience.
If you are trying to contact us about an existing referral, please email [email protected]
If you are in crisis, then call 999 in an emergency, or 111 and select option 2 for a mental health assessment. If you need less urgent support, then we would encourage you to contact your GP in the first instance.

Our Approach to Neuro-Inclusive Care
At Help for Psychology, our mission is to provide high-quality mental health assessment and therapy. We believe in partnering with you to improve well-being.
Location
We offer face-to-face services at our Norfolk clinic, with certain services also available online.
Our Commitment
We are a team of friendly, genuine professionals who use evidence-based methods. We are proud to offer care that is explicitly neuro-inclusive, with specialist support designed to respect and affirm neurodivergent individuals.
Why Help for Psychology?
Our clinicians have extensive experience working with neurodivergent individuals, offering a supportive space where therapy is tailored to your individual needs. This process allows you to develop new coping strategies, enhance self-understanding, gain self-awareness, explore problem-solving approaches, foster meaningful insights, and allow for self-development. For example, therapy can be specifically adapted to help autistic people manage anxiety, develop social understanding, understand themselves and their neurotype more deeply, and navigate other common challenges of living in a neurotypical world.

Begin Your Journey
1Reach Out For Support
Every path is unique, and you don't have to figure out the next step alone. If you're wondering what therapy might look like for you, we invite you to reach out to us. Our team is here to listen to your needs and help you discover the most effective and supportive route for you at our clinic.
2An Initial Consultation
An Initial Consultation is the first step.
This would last approximately 1 hour and would explore the current main difficulties and the impact this is having on different areas of the person’s life.
Following the assessment, clients are provided with advice as to whether or not therapy would be recommended, and what therapeutic support would be most appropriate and beneficial.
3Choose Your Personalised Support
Clients are not obliged to take up therapy but, should you choose to do so, the number of therapy sessions required (and the frequency and length of each session) would be entirely dependent on the individual’s needs.
However, it is fairly standard for a therapist to see an individual for 1 hour each week or bi-weekly for 6 to 8 sessions and to review progress at the end of that block.
We use therapeutic approaches informed by various modalities. These include:
CBT focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and aims to help the person to identify, understand and challenge both unhelpful thoughts and behaviours in order to improve wellbeing and be able to thrive in everyday life.
EMDR is an effective, non-verbal therapy used primarily for PTSD and related anxiety. It uses guided bilateral stimulation (like side-to-side eye movements) to help the brain process and naturally heal from traumatic memories by changing the resulting emotions and thoughts.
Adults only.
Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) is a type of psychotherapy that helps individuals with shame and self-criticism develop self-compassion to improve their mental health. It uses an understanding of how emotions and the brain have evolved over time to help people manage their emotional regulation systems.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on a values-based approach, which acknowledges human suffering is a universal condition. It supports people to thrive despite suffering, by accepting what is out of our control and taking action to pursue personal values.
DBT is a structured, skills-based approach designed to help individuals understand and regulate intense and overwhelming emotions. This modality uses principles that combine acceptance and change to help clients gain control over deeply rooted emotional habits.

Therapy Groups
Our therapy groups offer a supportive space where small groups of individuals share experiences, build connections, and learn from each other.
ADHD Parent Psychoeducation Group
If you have a child who has been diagnosed with ADHD by our service through the Right to Choose pathway, you can attend our free ADHD psychoeducation group for parents and carers.
The group runs online weekly for 4 weeks and covers basic psychoeducation about ADHD, including biology, sleep, therapy and medication. We also ask you to attend this group before going on our medication waitlist.
Tree of Life group
The “Tree of Life” is a therapeutic approach that uses the metaphor of a tree to help young people explore their identity and narrative. In a group setting, this visual and structured activity allows children to externalise their diagnosis by drawing or creating a tree with roots representing their history, a trunk symbolising their skills, and branches for their hopes and dreams. This process helps them build a sense of community by seeing shared experiences, reduces social pressure by focusing on a shared task rather than direct conversation, and affirms their strengths rather than their deficits, fostering a more positive and empowered sense of self and supporting them to understand their diagnosis.
This is a one-off group session which costs £20 and will take place during the school holidays in our Norwich clinic.

Frequently Asked Questions
Our team of therapists deliver therapy using different modalities. In Norwich, our Help for Psychology team are able to offer face-to-face therapy at our Norfolk clinic. For clients in other areas of the UK, our therapists can provide therapy via video conference platforms such as Google Meet.
No. You do not need a GP referral in order to take up private therapy.
I would like to register my interest in receiving therapy for myself or my child. How do I start this process?
Please email your enquiry to [email protected]
Whilst a therapist may recommend a block of therapy following an Initial Consultation in order to work on the goals you identified in your consultation, you are under no obligation to proceed with it.
No. Unfortunately at this time we are only able to provide Therapy between the hours of 9:00 and 16:00.
This is reviewed on a client by client basis, but we are happy to liaise with our colleagues in Education.
We require a minimum of 2 working days notice of any changes to be agreed. Less than 2 working days notice will mean a cancellation charge of 50% of your booking fee paid.
Cancellation on the day of your booking would incur a 100% cancellation charge.
Should Help for Psychology need to cancel your appointment due to unforeseen reasons, then you will receive a 100% refund on the appointment we can’t provide, unless a suitable alternative booking date is supplied and agreed for your sessions.
We aim to respond to email enquiries within 5 working days, and an initial consultation as soon as an appropriate clinician is available.
It varies from person to person. Some people find six sessions helpful and others find they are still benefiting from Therapy after several months. We are happy to be flexible and work around each individual client.
