Therapy for children, teenagers and parents
When someone you love is struggling, it can be hard to know what they need or where to begin. You don’t have to work that out alone.
I’m Dr Chloe Bedford, an HCPC Registered Counselling Psychologist.
I offer therapy for all ages near Putney Bridge, London, and online across the UK, including children, teenagers and young adults.

Therapy and parent sessions: £140 for 50 minutes.
You’re not the only family going through this
When your child is struggling, it can feel lonely. You might wonder whether you’ve done something wrong or feel unsure what to try next. I’ve spent 15 years working as a qualified psychologist across NHS services and private practice, including specialist NHS eating-disorder services. I’ve worked with young people who don’t want help and parents who feel overwhelmed. Every family is different, but these difficulties are familiar to me.
I’m warm and straightforward, and I bring a little humour into our conversations when it helps people feel more at ease. You don’t need to have all the answers. We can think together about what’s happening, what your child needs and where to begin.
More about me and my experience
What brings you here
Help for my child or teenager
Support with anxiety, low mood, phobias, self-esteem, trauma and other emotional difficulties. We can begin with what you have noticed, even if you do not know what is wrong.
Support for me as a parent
Parent consultations offer a place to understand what is happening, think through difficult situations and feel more confident about how to respond. If your teenager won’t accept help, you can still get support yourself. Your child does not need to attend.
Help with eating difficulties
Support for eating disorders and disordered eating at any age, alongside consultations for parents.
Online therapy for myself or my child
Appointments across the UK for all ages, including teenagers and young adults. We will discuss whether online therapy is suitable for your needs.
What happens next
Send a short enquiry and I’ll aim to reply within two working days. We’ll arrange a free telephone call of around 15 minutes. You can tell me what’s worrying you, ask questions and get a sense of how I work. I’ll ask a few questions too, so we can consider whether I’m the right person to help. You don’t need to decide about therapy before we speak. If we decide to go ahead, we’ll arrange a first 50-minute session.
