Psychological research, treatment and education can make an important contribution to health and well being across the lifespan. Health care psychologists seek to understand how people think, feel and behave in a range of situations relating to health and illness. This knowledge can be applied to help people take steps to stay as healthy and live as fully as possible despite their illness. Many psychological approaches have been demonstrated to be effective in helping people to manage their thoughts, emotions and behaviour more skillfully when faced with a serious illness or health risk.
The group of psychologists at London Medical have years of experience in assisting medical populations presenting a wide range of difficulties concerning mood, stress, relationships, weight, sleep, bereavement, sexuality, chronic pain, fatique, addiction, sensory loss and more. Their work typically draws on cognitive, behavioural, motivational, mindfulness-based and systemic approaches. They are trained to apply these methods with individuals, couples, families and patient groups.
You can be referred to any of the psychologists by doctors at London Medical or at other clinics and hospitals. You can also self refer. For more information, please request a Clinical Psychology leaflet, or call to speak to a psychologist.
