“I came across The Private Therapy Clinic in 2021 while searching online for support after completing six sessions of CBT through the NHS (which was all that was offered to me). During a very desperate time in my life, when I had little understanding of my OCD symptoms, I picked up the phone to call The Private Therapy Clinic—and it happened to be Saskia who answered. From that first conversation, I immediately felt reassured and confident about booking my first session. Saskia has been the best therapist I’ve ever worked with, after previously trying BetterHelp, the NHS, and an EAP scheme through work. When I started therapy with her, ROCD had completely taken over my life, without me knowing what it was and I was experiencing overwhelming anxiety. Over the past four years, working with Saskia has made a significant difference in my life. Not only has she been flexible around my commitments, but she has also supported me with both ERP (exposure and response prevention) and CBT for general anxiety. Thanks to the techniques I’ve learned in our sessions, I’ve been able to reduce my therapy from weekly to bi-weekly, and now our meetings feel more like valuable check-ins. Booking that first session in 2021 was the best decision I’ve ever made for my mental health. If you’re struggling the way I was, I would strongly recommend reaching out for help—you won’t regret it.”

“After only six sessions with Dr Olga Preston, I had a much better understanding of the issues that caused a great rift in my relationship with my partner. Therapy was very well structured and very different to the counselling I had previously. It took a professional approach which led to the important changes and improvements in my attachment style. I would highly recommend The Private Therapy Clinic.”

“Meadhbh Raftery was very impressive in her knowledge and empathetic and respectful, but also honest, in how she expressed herself. She grasped the complex and unusual aspects of my case quickly and offered me considerate but also sincere and realistic support. I moved from the Private Therapy Clinic only because I obtained a therapist who specialises in my condition more locally. The single 'fly in the ointment' with The Private Therapy Clinic was very early on, when I forwarded to Meadhbh a short summary of the most traumatic episodes from my childhood, so she could prepare for our first proper meeting. This was quite a difficult thing for me to write, bringing back a lot of bad memories, as you will appreciate. However, Meadhbh did not acknowledge receipt of my email, so the first part of our session was made a little unnecessarily confusing and agitating, with me assuming the email had not been delivered to her, and Meadhh then apologising for not having confirmed receipt. But she was courteous enough to be apologise and to sound sincerely embarrrasssed by it. Apart from that one early blip, very impressive and empathetic as I mentioned, and I would recommend Meadhbh to anyone.”

“Super impressed by Dr Letizia De Mori. We had a 3+ hour comprehensive assessment with an anxious young adult. Dr Letizia immediately put him at ease and impressed with her manner and subject matter knowledge. Her assessment was thorough, insightful, educational, non-judgemental and left us excited about the journey ahead to better understand and celebrate his newly identified super-powers!”

“After years of being let down by the NHS, working with Letizia was a turning point for our family. She brought clarity, professionalism, and deep expertise to our daughter's assessment, ultimately diagnosing ADHD, Tourette’s, and dyslexia, conditions that had gone unrecognised for far too long. Letizia’s compassionate, thoughtful approach made us feel heard and supported throughout the entire process. Thanks to her, we’ve finally been able to access the help our daughter needs. We can’t recommend her highly enough.”

“I've been seeing Dr Alex and have found him to be highly professional, thoughtful, and supportive. He takes the time to explain things clearly and ensures I understand my treatment. Importantly, he's also been willing to liaise with my NHS team, which shows a real commitment to continuity of care and his patients’ wellbeing. I feel well supported and heard in our sessions.”

“I had a very recent full online appt with Dr Alex Pavlovic. I was very nervous but found Alex very friendly, extremely knowledgeable and very understanding. May I just add that the entire team at The Private Therpay Clinic are all wonderful to, again very friendly and helpful and really efficient. I explained how poor my IT skills were for the zoom call, and they were super understanding and explained each and every step for me to relieve any stresses, which were there for sure!!! Dr Pavlovic listened to my points, concerns and position and was very, very thorough going right back to birth to current date. I would very highly recommend Alex to anybody that is looking to engage with a Psychiatrist to look no further. My report is second to none, very well detailed indeed and explains everything about me and my condition. It is better than I could have hoped for. Alex is a very professional consultant psychiatrist, and made me feel very at ease throughout my appointment which enabled me to be more open about my circumstances and condition too. “Thank you” PTC and “Thank you” Dr Pavlovic, I appreciate how well you have all treat me and I look forward to my follow up appointment next week. Warm regards, Chris”

“After surviving two decades of severe domestic violence abuse, I finally made the brave decision to seek therapy. My first session was with Dr. Alex Pavlovic, and I found it incredibly therapeutic, offering a profound sense of relief and validation I hadn't realised I desperately needed. Dr. Alex Pavlovic immediately put me at ease; he was incredibly easy to talk to and, crucially, there was no sense of judgment, particularly concerning the years I spent existing in a state of denial about my situation. This compassionate understanding allowed me to speak freely without shame. He didn't just hear my words; he truly listened. Coupled with his knowledge, which he applied with incredible sensitivity and insight, Dr. Alex Pavlovic provided clarity and perspective that helped untangle years of emotional complexity. For anyone who has gone through prolonged trauma, particularly domestic violence, I highly recommend Dr. Alex Pavlovic; he is, without reservation, exactly the right person, and I cannot recommend him highly enough.”

“I’m so incredibly happy with the service I received from Dr. Raja Natarajan and the whole of the Private Therapy Clinic. I was with a private psychiatrist before and did not feel I could find someone more helpful. The clinic are quick to reply, they listen, they write reports, you can get through to someone straight away. My old one I could be having a really urgent mental health crisis and I’d never get a response until a week later if that. Really useful how can I thank them enough. This is a genuine review about how I feel about how this is (starting) to make a difference to my life. I feel supported. If I could give 10* I would. What a wonderful amazing doctor. I WANT MY LIFE BACK and even the hope the doctor gives helps me.”

“Dr Vjosa was extremely kind and was especially easy to talk to which was important to me due to struggling with selective mutism. She gave me the space and time to thoroughly talk through every single thing I wanted to mention. I found some of the questions hard to understand which Dr Vjosa helped me with. I had a very positive experience talking to her overall.”

“I found Saskia while searching for "Relationship OCD" online. After watching her YouTube videos explaining the disorder, I immediately knew that I absolutely needed to work with her. Over the course over little more than a year, I learned a great deal about my patterns, behaviors, responses, and deeper conditioning. We made many discoveries through our sessions, and as a result, my relationship with my partner gradually improved. I felt that nobody (not even other therapists) could understand what I was going through, and would often enable me into certain behaviors that worsened my relationship. However, Saskia was able to see my unhealthy patterns and able to airlift me from the constant fires I was starting for apparently "no reason". Although I am not completely symptom free today, I am in a much better place than when I started. "Resilient" is the word I would use to describe myself and my tendency to fall for OCD traps. We did not deep-dive too much into exposure therapy, but I benefited immensely simply from discovering deep patterns within my psyche and bringing them into the light of awareness. I would recommend no better qualified therapist, let alone individual, if you are struggling with Relationship OCD. Saskia is always highly prepared, incredibly thoughtful, and limitless in her kindness and compassion. You will never feel judged or shamed for your obsessions or compulsions in any way. Aside from therapy, Saskia is always so fun to chat with and very relatable. She's clearly dedicated to the cause, and that cause is to spread the word about ROCD and to successfully treat as many patients as she can. Thank you, Saskia! Working with you has been a priceless experience!”

“I wanted to take a moment to personally thank Dr Daniela for the incredible difference she has made to my daughter's mental health and overall well-being. You have given me my daughter back! The progress she has made under your care has been truly remarkable, and for the first time in a long while, we are seeing real signs of hope, confidence, and stability returning to her life. She is communicating brilliantly, has minimal anxiety and is is thriving again at school - something I never thought possible! I really cannot thank you enough for your interventions. Your work truly matters, and we are so thankful to have had your support at such a crucial time.”
