Anxiety is a common yet challenging experience that can significantly impact daily life. At Dr Jo Gee Psychotherapy near Woking, Surrey, we specialise in providing tailored therapeutic interventions to help individuals manage and overcome anxiety. Our compassionate and evidence-based approach aims to empower you to regain control and enhance your quality of life.
Anxiety manifests in various forms, including generalised anxiety disorder (GAD), social anxiety, panic disorders, and specific phobias. Common symptoms encompass persistent worry, restlessness, fatigue, difficulty concentrating, and physical manifestations such as increased heart rate and muscle tension. These symptoms can interfere with personal relationships, work performance, and overall well-being.
At Dr Jo Gee Psychotherapy, we offer a range of therapeutic modalities to address anxiety, recognising that each individual’s experience is unique. Our primary approaches include:
CBT is a structured, evidence-based therapy that focuses on identifying and modifying negative thought patterns and behaviours contributing to anxiety. Through CBT, clients learn practical skills to challenge unhelpful thoughts and develop healthier coping mechanisms. This approach is particularly effective for anxiety disorders and can generally offer symptom relief in 10–20 sessions.
DBT combines cognitive-behavioural techniques with mindfulness practices to help individuals regulate emotions, tolerate distress, and improve interpersonal relationships. It is especially beneficial for those experiencing intense emotional responses and impulsive behaviours. Our DBT programme includes group skills training, individual therapy, and crisis coaching, available both online and at our Guildford clinic.
Our integrative counselling approach combines elements from various therapeutic models to create a personalised treatment plan. This flexibility allows us to address specific concerns and goals, fostering a deeper understanding of oneself and promoting lasting change. Our Guildford clinic provides a calm, confidential environment where you can connect with a qualified therapist face-to-face, facilitating deeper understanding and tailored intervention.
In addition to individual therapy, we offer specialised services to support your mental health journey:
Engaging in group therapy provides a supportive environment where individuals can share experiences, gain insights, and develop coping strategies alongside others facing similar challenges. Our therapy groups are facilitated by experienced therapists and cover various topics related to anxiety and emotional well-being.
Recognising the need for flexibility, we offer online therapy sessions, allowing you to access support from the comfort of your home. This option ensures continuity of care, especially for those with busy schedules or mobility constraints. Our team is adept at delivering effective online therapy, ensuring you receive the same quality of care as in-person sessions.
Led by Dr Jo Gee, a senior Clinical Psychotherapist with over 17 years of experience, our team comprises skilled therapists dedicated to providing compassionate and effective care. We adhere to NICE guidelines and incorporate the latest research to ensure our interventions are both current and effective. Our commitment is to support you in achieving your mental health goals through personalised and empathetic therapy.
Our Guildford clinic fees range from £90–£120 for a 50-minute session or £100 for a therapy group. Sessions can be self-funded or covered through health insurance, local authority, or workplace schemes. We recommend contacting your insurance provider to confirm coverage for our services.
