Jeremy Lock

Professional Profile

My name is Jeremy, I am a fully qualified and BABCP-accredited CBT therapist working with Think CBT in London. I also work for a national NHS specialist anxiety service.

I have been active in healthcare for over twenty years, in both physical, and mental health. I have experience of general hospitals ‘on the wards’, as well as dementia care, psychosis rehabilitation and significant experience in depression and all anxiety disorders. Currently I am working as a senior therapist in a national NHS in-patient service for chronic and hard to treat anxiety.

My main areas for treatment are obsessive compulsive disorder, trauma and complex post-traumatic stress disorder, health anxiety, social anxiety, generalised anxiety, low self-esteem and unhelpful self-critical beliefs, specific phobias (such as agoraphobia and emetophobia) and low mood or depression.

I work with people to help guide them towards their valued lives, utilising compassion focussed therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy, mindfulness based therapies and dialectical behaviour therapy whenever appropriate. I find where my current work is concerned, that the anxiety disorder people are suffering from is often just the tip of the iceberg, and frequently serves a function in their lives which needs to be addressed before real change can take place. I love working alongside patients towards recovery, with clear goals, and realistic weekly targets they can achieve towards real recovery.

As a trained occupational therapist and experienced CBT therapist I understand how an anxiety disorder or depression can take so much of value from people’s lives, and I look forward to helping them to claim it back.

I abide by the policies and ethical standards laid down by the BABCP and I have full professional indemnity to work as a therapist in the UK.
