City of London Therapy Centre

"Gordon Matthews is a perceptive, practical and highly experienced therapist. He is experienced in helping his clients to manage their ever changing juggling responsibilities and aims. My personal, professional and cultural lives need the right balance. During the pandemic this balance was adversely affected. My time with Gordon has given me techniques and a deeper understanding to forge a productively peaceful and kinder way forward to achieving my aims and more importantly a way of just being. The work doesn’t just take place in the session - it continues in every decision you make. I have discovered aspects of myself in a better way in order to be more present for those I am close to."

"I had taken the conventional route of talking to someone about my issues to a councillor and psychotherapy way but I felt frustrated as there were no solutions forthcoming. I spoke to Darren at the City of London hypnotherapy and I was quite nervous and dubious about the whole experience having only ever heard about hypnotherapy by seeing silly television shows etc. When I was actually explained what it was and how it is so solution based I thought I should give it a go. The centre and is absolutely lovely, I immediately felt at ease the therapist had such great report with me that I felt relaxed and ready to get the most out of the sessions and that I can honestly say that I have coped with and feel free from fears, anxiety and overthinking. I now wake up feeling happy and calm and have more emotional control I feel so much more happier in my life and would highly recommend anybody coming to this center. They do not claim to work miracles but I feel like it has worked miracles for me."

"Before meeting Lindsey Thurlow I had never been to therapy before. I was going through a number of life changes and Lindsey was a great support during our time working together. She listened to me without judgement and offered sound advice on career development, lifestyle improvements as well as taught me techniques that helped me get through stress/anxiety."

"Having previously worked with a CBT therapist, I had some trepidation about psychotherapy. Upon our first meeting, Lindsey showed remarkable insight about not only my inner workings, but also in framing how she foresaw our sessions working given my personality type. I worked with Lindsey for over a year, and I still marvel at how much she helped me work through my issues and better understand my current emotional and mental state. I cannot recommend psychotherapy enough, as one treats the root cause rather than symptomatic behaviour. Lindsey was an intuitive therapeutic partner that set clear boundaries (which I needed), showed an uncanny ability to read when I was flagging, and coaxed revelations out of me that were, to me, absolutely astounding."

"I’ve worked with Lindsey for 5+ years, and of all the therapists I have worked with in the past, Lindsey is by far the best. Through her insightful guidance and unwavering support, we have worked through anxiety, depression, eating disorders, heartaches, loss, and traumas. It’s been one hell of a journey peeling away the layers to connect to my inner self. Today I’m more balanced, healthy and content than ever. Lindsey is extremely professional, wise, patient, sincere and honest. If you’re looking to heal yourself, I highly highly highly recommend you try therapy with her. You won’t regret it! If you would like to ask me any questions of my experience with Lindsey, I’m happy to respond."
