Online Counselling & Psychotherapy with Oliver North, MBACP
A thoughtful, clinical space for deep therapeutic exploration.
Providing trauma-informed support for adults navigating anxiety, depression, complex trauma, stress, relational patterns and more.
about Olly
When you've spent years in survival mode, your nervous system forgets how to interpret stillness as safety. This isn't a cognitive flaw; it's the physical legacy of chronic stress, anxiety, and the undigested fragments of trauma.
My practice, ON Psych, is built on a simple truth: deep therapeutic change is not about learning coping mechanisms to paint over your distress. It's about building a safe, relational partnership where you don't need to be managed, fixed, or pathologised.
As a qualified integrative counsellor and psychotherapist, I work beyond surface-level symptoms to help your system finally settle, digest its past, and safely step back into a life of genuine freedom.

an integrative framework
No single therapeutic model can capture the rich complexity of a human life. My approach is intentionally integrative, combining distinct psychological frameworks to match your unique history, your view of the world and your needs.
You don't need a history of severe trauma to benefit from this work. Whether you're navigating a difficult developmental transition, struggling with relationship patterns, or simply seeking to understand the quiet undercurrents of your mind, this space is designed to meet you exactly where you are.
Olly is a good guy.
- Liz, BACP Registered Counsellor
the safe
foundation
Person-centred principles form the bedrock of my practice. By offering consistent warmth, safety, and unconditional acceptance, your mind and body can safely drop their everyday defences.
beneath
the surface
Attachment and psycho-dynamic theories allow us to look beneath the surface. We explore early relational blueprints and internalised expectations to understand how your history is active in your present.
the context of
your life
Body: We are deeply shaped by the spaces we inhabit. This perspective explores how the unspoken pressures of your environment, workplace, family dynamics, and cultural expectations compound your distress.
active
alignment
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and creative Gestalt techniques provide practical tools to identify active cycles, manage somatic stress, and restore real-time regulation to your nervous system.
