A few stories that stood out to us, in our patients’ own words.
I came to see Bryony having had a long history of on / off anorexia. I didn’t have very high expectations of real recovery, having had treatment elsewhere in the past. Bryony was always very patient, kind and understanding; but also direct and told me things I needed to hear. She is professional, knowledgeable and experienced, but also has a sense of humour! I would recommend Bryony and TLC to anyone dealing with an eating disorder, even if you’re not sure about therapy or have doubts about recovery – it is worth it and whilst still a work in progress, life really is better on the other side.
I never thought my disordered eating would be something I’d be able to begin tackling, let alone come out the other side of, but thanks to the staff at The London Centre for Eating Disorders and Body Image I’ve been able to do both. The team were always judgement-free and supportive through what was a difficult journey at times, but I can safely say that they have immeasurably improved my life for the better.
“Our clinician has been instrumental in helping my teenage daughter recover from her eating disorder. Our clinician was very personable and she quickly built up an excellent rapport with my daughter, enabling her to open up, so the sessions were open and honest. This meant that my daughter made solid progress and improvements were evident from the very beginning of her treatment. Our clinician has a vast experience of how to deal with Eating Disorders and she was very firm on what my daughter needed to do in order to get better. My daughter trusted her implicitly and she was receptive to her advice and guidance. My daughter held her clinician in very high regard and so she pushed herself to follow her advice and I believe that this played an important role in her recovery. In short, our clinician is a highly experienced and talented Psychologist and I cannot recommend The London Centre highly enough.
I’m so grateful that I found The London Centre. My therapist has helped me transform my life in many ways. My eating disorder was always only a small part of the whole (long, painful and difficult) story, and my therapist has helped me to find a gentler, kinder and less judgemental approach to all aspects of life. I have learnt how to trust my instincts and to make meaningful decisions for myself, rather than according to external values and rules. Through the patient support I’ve received from my therapist over the course of 15 months, I’ve found my own way to embrace mindfulness and meditation, and to listen to my inner wisdom. She is a remarkably skilled, patient, graceful and kind person, and I have benefited enormously from her expertise and support. I have had a number of therapists over the years, and the help that I’ve received from The London Centre has been far and away the best and most effective. Beyond my therapist, the managers and other clinic staff have been extremely friendly, compassionate and efficient. This has meant that I have not faced any administrative obstacles in my therapy journey, and have always felt complete confidence in the process.
I am really enjoying my visits to see Olivia. She is really facilitating my recovery and I find our sessions to be pragmatic, realistic and well structured.
My clinician has treated me with so much compassion when I’ve been most afraid of being judged. I’ve still got a long way to go, but I feel like they genuinely believe I will recover and they are helping me to believe that too.
The London Centre has been really brilliant for me, I can’t recommend the service highly enough.
I would highly recommend The London Centre. The staff were incredible and the treatment really helped. I’m so glad to have my life back on track and really owe it to the excellent quality of therapy.

I found my Trainee Clinician to be an excellent therapist. We got on really well, they knew how to get the best out of me and from our sessions. I had had an experience with another therapist previously which I had not found very helpful. The London Centre restored my faith in therapy! I have taken away a huge amount from our sessions, and weeks later I still use tools and learnings on a daily basis.

We would very much like to thank our clinician for all of her care and thoughtful work with our daughter which has been so appreciated, by her and by us. We are particularly grateful for the warm trusting relationship that our daughter developed with her clinician which was a lifeline for her during a very difficult period in her life.
My Clinician is an exceptional psychologist. Her wealth of experience with different therapeutic approaches is evident, as she integrates different psychological techniques seamlessly. She is unfailingly professional, warm, empathetic, kind, supportive and insightful. She is an asset to any team and I feel very fortunate to have had access to such a brilliant therapist.
I am so appreciative of all the support the London Centre has given me. Over just under 2 years, their support has aided me to go from a place of darkness and seeing very little hope, to a place of excitement and hope for my future. I am so appreciative that the stance of my clinicians meant that I was the one in control of my recovery, and had choice. They could give me strong evidence for making a change, but allowed me to make the moves myself in the end. And that is something that I think has helped me so much in my successful recovery. I have felt such a warm sense of positive, hopeful support from the London Centre team, giving me tools for managing difficult scenarios and helping me learn how to make wise decisions for myself. Thank you so, so much London Centre, working with you has been one of the most important investments I’ve made, to turn my life around for the better.
I came to the London Centre after years of struggling with bulimia. I had tried medication and psychiatry more than once previously and my mental health went nothing but downhill. In just 9 months, with weekly check-ins, a tailored week by week plan, and guidance from my Trainee Clinician, I did what I thought was impossible. I got my life back, I got my health back, and I feel like I have the tools and mechanisms to lead a beautifully healthy life from here on. I could not recommend The London Centre enough!
