Cindy Cassidy

If you’re overwhelmed, stuck in anxious thoughts or held back by self-doubt - and ready for change - you’re in the right place. I’m an accredited CBT therapist and confidence coach with a warm, down-to-earth style. I help you cut through the noise of your inner critic and reconnect with who you really are, using structured, evidence-based strategies that bring clarity, calm and confidence. Sessions are focused on helping you make manageable, meaningful changes so that life feels more like yours again. I work with people experiencing: - Anxiety (including GAD, panic, social anxiety, and phobias) - Low self-esteem and lack of confidence - OCD and intrusive thoughts - Burnout, overwhelm, and perfectionism - Major life transitions (such as divorce, illness, or returning to work) - Emotional effects of working in high-stress environments (especially NHS and other helping roles) - Building resilience and navigating setbacks - Learning to quiet your inner critic and strengthen self-belief Originally from Texas, I’ve lived in the UK for over 20 years and work with clients from a range of cultural and professional backgrounds. People often tell me they appreciate my open, relatable style - and I bring both life experience and practical tools to our work together. If any of this resonates with you, you’re not alone, and you don’t have to figure it out by yourself. Feel free to get in touch when you're ready. Training, qualifications & experience I hold post graduate qualifications in both CBT and psychodynamic therapy. I have experience working in the NHS, private practice, and higher education, teaching on an MSc programme training future therapists. I have full accreditation with the BABCP and am a registered member of the BACP.
