Specialist Clinical Psychology

Anxiety Therapy in Glasgow & Online

Evidence-based support to reduce worry and panic, calm your nervous system, and get life moving again.

What you're noticing

When anxiety runs the day

Anxiety can feel relentless — but it’s highly treatable. If any of this sounds familiar, therapy can help:

Constant worry

Looping “what ifs”, overthinking decisions, or dread that won’t switch off.

Panic or overwhelm

Racing heart, breathlessness, dizziness, or sudden surges of fear.

Avoidance

Cancel plans, avoid places, or rely on safety behaviours to get through.

Perfectionism & self-criticism

High standards, fear of mistakes, and a tough inner voice.

Sleep & body symptoms

Restless nights, muscle tension, headaches, gut issues.

Life getting smaller

Work, study, and relationships squeezed by worry and stress.

What we won’t do

Anxiety therapy should feel safe and collaborative:

  • We won’t give one-size-fits-all worksheets and call it done.
  • We won’t push exposure work before you’re resourced and ready.
  • We won’t reduce everything to “thoughts”, we include body and context.
  • We won’t ignore values, progress should move you toward what matters.

Therapies we use

Approaches that can help with anxiety

We draw on several evidence-based therapies for anxiety. Each offers different tools, and together we will agree on the best fit for you.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Helps you change your relationship with anxious thoughts and sensations while moving toward your values.

Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT)

Soothes the inner critic and builds a sense of safety and calm.

Schema Therapy

Addresses deeper patterns of fear, perfectionism, and self-doubt that drive anxiety.

EMDR

Useful when anxiety is linked to past trauma or distressing experiences.
