I have spent decades devoted to specializing in the treatment of anxiety. Worried? I am an expert at treating generalized anxiety disorder (GAD; the worry disorder). I'm also great at treating panic attacks, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), insomnia, phobias, work stress, performance anxiety, depression and social anxiety.

Peter Klein
Therapist, BABCP Accredited, BACP Registered Member
I am a fully accredited Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist (BABCP) based in Richmond, London, offering both face-to-face and online therapy. I have over 13 years of experience helping people overcome difficulties including anxiety, OCD, stress, low self-esteem, perfectionism and depression.
My approach is tailored to each individual. I believe therapy works best when we develop a clear understanding of your difficulties together and create a practical plan for meaningful change. I use evidence-based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), including the UCL Case Formulation Model, alongside approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Compassion Focused Therapy and Schema Therapy.
I previously worked as a CBT therapist at the world famous Priory Hospital in Roehampton, where I created and delivered psychological treatment programmes, and I have been working in private practice since 2012.
Whether you are struggling with anxiety, feeling stuck in unhelpful patterns, dealing with self-criticism or wanting to develop greater confidence and resilience, therapy can help you understand yourself and create lasting change.
I offer confidential online therapy sessions and therapy in Richmond, London.

Dr. Sheena Sikorski
Psychologist, PsyD, Licensed Psychologist
Do you constantly feel like you're never good enough? Do you feel like you compare yourself to other people and think they're so much better looking or smarter than you? Do you feel like you have to wear a mask and pretend you're someone you're not just to get people to like you, not leave you, or reject you? If you said 'yes' to any or all of these questions, you've come to the right place. These are common signs of perfectionism and people-pleasing, my specialty! If you're ready to roll up your sleeves and put in the work to find and use your voice to share your opinions and needs, feel safe being vulnerable so you can deepen your emotional connections, and learn how to compassionately hold yourself accountable when you make a mistake, this can be your reality with the scientifically based tools you'll learn with me as your guide. I'd love to hear from you- reach out by sending me a message through my profile on here so we can talk about next steps for working together.

Cook Counseling and Consulting Inc.
Counselor/Therapist, LISW-S, LCSW-QS, CCTP
Cook Counseling and Consulting Inc. is a group of highly trained professionals providing mental health services based in Columbus, Ohio. We work with individuals, couples, and families across the lifespan, focusing on young adults. We are also experts in LGBTQIA+ and ENM/ polyamory. Many of our clients have found great success in many facets of their lives but struggle to manage their emotions and stress. We are particularly sensitive to those experiencing life transitions like moving, a breakup, changing jobs, graduating, or beginning a new relationship when self-doubt and increased anxiety and depression can emerge.
Our approach is rooted in evidence-based treatment that focuses on helping clients understand how their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are related so that they can begin making targeted and sustainable changes. Our clinicians blend person-centered therapy with cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectal behavior therapy, motivational interviewing and acceptance, and commitment therapy. We help clients understand their physical and emotional responses to stressors and learn to problem-solve ways to introduce moments of calm, to choose to respond rather than react in the face of change.
Cook Counseling and Consulting Inc. focuses on ensuring our clients see real progress. We are warm, laid back, and affirming. We are sensitive to the influence of past experiences on present challenges, and we work closely with clients to reframe the narrative of their life in a way that increases self-confidence and self-compassion. Our priority in starting with a new client is ensuring that they feel safe, heard, and like an equal partner in the therapeutic process. We offer the convenience of remote sessions to help make therapy a core component of your self-care calendar.

Columbus, Georgia is home to Fort Benning — one of the US Army's largest installations and the home of the Army Infantry — creating a therapy community substantially shaped by the needs of soldiers, veterans, and military families dealing with combat trauma, moral injury, PTSD, and the emotional complexity of service life. The city's African American population comprises the largest share of the civilian community, and culturally affirming therapists who work with racial identity and intergenerational resilience alongside the predominantly military therapy demand are an important part of the local landscape. Martin Army Community Hospital serves the military population, while Piedmont Columbus Regional provides civilian institutional mental health resources. Columbus shares some of its therapy ecosystem with Phenix City, Alabama directly across the Chattahoochee River, giving the metro a bi-state character.
