Our Therapists
When you rent a room with us, you're not just gaining a professional space - you're becoming part of a supportive community of therapists.
We believe working in private practice doesn't have to feel isolating, and our network offers the opportunity to share knowledge, encouragement, and ideas with like-minded professionals. Whether it's through informal conversations, peer support, or potential referrals, you'll be joining a collective of practitioners who value connection as much as individual growth.
We have several therapists and counsellors at Stevenage Therapy rooms, working across a range of styles and modalities. If you're seeking therapy, we can help you decide which of our team is best suited to your needs. Please get in contact and we can facilitate a referral.
